BUTTE, Sept. .26.-[Speoial. IA bold high
wayman seems to have established shot
gun toll-Rate in the Pipestone pass. about
twelve miles south of this city, and is de-
mandinR his tolls with regularity that
smacks of the good old days. About
month since slender, soft-voioed young
man, wearing a piece of overalls for mask,
commenced asking for contributions from
people passing this point, not even the
wood-haulers being exempt, and he
made mp in numbers what was lacking in
individual amounts. This was kept up for
few days. then the Pipestone was desert
ed, and the Champion stage was brought
under the persuasive influence of the same
Winchester. To-day word comes to this
city that this modern Claude Duval has re-
turned to Pipeetone. and that FIVE new
victims have been added to the list. The
amounts taken in each instance have been
small, but the frequency Of the demand has
made it burdensome, and the people living
in that section are organizing to endeavor
to discourage his efforts in that line. Some
interesting Developments are promised
from that point in the very near future.
James Allen, miner in the employ of the
Moulton, met with painful il not fatal
accident in the Montana Central yards this
evening. He wae on the track when the
Helena express c9pae in and stepped over
upon siding tc be out of the way. He
evidently thought the train would stand at
the platform to unload, AZ he stepped back
upon the main line behind it and started to
walk down the yards. The express, how
ever, did not wait but backed down to make
a siding and caught him. He was not.no.
ticed until the entire train had run over
him twice. when it was found that his right
leg had been crushed so badly that IL had
to be amputated at the thigh. It will be
impossible to tell before to- morrow whether
or not he will recover from the shock.

General Outline OF Classification Adopted
for Exhibits ut Chicago.
CHlcAao, Sept. 26.-World's Fair Commis-
sioner DeYcunR, of California, member
OF the classifcations committee, announced
tonight that material progress had been
made. The committee had been working
very hard and hope to give the local di-
rectors tomorrow the scope and general
classification of the whole exposition. that
is the great departments and
their divisions. The work of COM
pletinR the classification of SEQ
tions, of which there will be
thousand, the committee hopes to have
done BY November. Tie plan they will
give the local board tomorrow will enable
that body to 90 ahead with plans for build
ing. The committee has, Mr.. DeYounG
says, laid out the scope of the exposition in
twelve great departments, to occupy about
nine buildings. Agriculture was placed
as department A, Mr.. DeYoung
taking the ground that the greatest
products and evidences of our material
wealth should be first. Department b in
cludes viniculture, horticulture and hori-
culture. The committee considered the
classification plan preK ared by Prof. Goode
by order OF the permanent committee. 1t
included the decimal system of classifca-
tion. DeYoung objected strenuously TO
this as misleading It commenced. he
said, to number the departments,
then divisions, then sections, 90 that
it 10 impossible, unless one is
quite familiar with it, to tell
where one left of and another began. He
advocated the system Of lettering. and after
some debate the committee unanimously
adopted his plan. Commissioner DeYoung
denies that there has been any dissensIon
IN the committee. 1t has established some
new departments, never before known in
classifications, including one of live stock
and one for electricity with all its varied
uses.

BozEMAN. Sept. 26.-GSpecial. The pro-
.hibition state eonvsnAieas was held here to-
day. There were very few delegates from
the outside. A. L. Corbly was nominated
for congress. He is from this valley and 10
strongly identified with the alliance move
ment. He was a prominent democrat for
many years and Is one of the very few of
this faith in this section who have joined
the third party in this county. His candi-
dacy will not materially affect Dixon's ma
jority in this county, as there are very few
people who feel like throwing away their
votes this fall. The convention was ad-
dressed by L. L. Wood, Of Missoula, and
Prof. Templeton, of Helena. Other speak
ers addressed the meeting and called loudly
for funds with which to run their paper and
the campaign.

DUBLIN. Sept. 26.-The streets of Tip
psrary were thronRed with people until q
late hour last night discussing the exciting
events of the day. The situation this morn
ing was much more tranquil than yes
tsrday. Tho streets are still thronged with
people laborinR under suppressed excite
ment, but there has been no collision with
the police. The authorities are taking spe-
cial precautions against tho possibility of
an outbreak. Detachments of soldiers arc
assisting the police in maintaining order.
The session of court was of short duration
this morning. The presiding magistrate
announced that it would be impossible
to go on with the cases, as the judge
Of the court required tho building
and it would be necessary to adjourn fur
ther proceedings until the afternoon. Be
fore the magistrate could declare the court
adjourned, Timothy Healy sprang to his
feet and in the name of the defendants
offered an earnest protest against adjourn
ment. II was not right, he urged. that tho
magistrates in such cases should suit their
actions to the convenience of the county
court. The judge of that tribunal should
be the one to yield instead Of insisting on
the letter of his rights in the premises.
Healy's protest was unavailing. As soon an
he resumed his seat the court adjourned un-
til afternoon. When court reopened in the
afternoon Roman proceeded with state
ment Of the crowns case against the ac-
cused men. He read long extracts from
the speeches made at varioes national meet
inps since the inauguration of the plan of
campaign. William O'Brien chafRngly re-
minded Roman that his ship was to sail for
America on Thursday next.
