LONDON, Nov. 12.-The British tor.
pedo cruiser Serpent foundered of the
coast OF Spain. Nothing known about
the crew.
The Serpent was lost at point
twenty miles north Of Cape Finistel re.
Out of total OF $50 souls on board only
three were saved. The Serpent went on
the rocks during the storm Monday night.
A heavy mist prevailed at the time Of the
disaster. Owing to the violence Of the
storm it was impossible to send assist
ance from the shore. Tremendous seas
swept the decks of the doomed vessel,
carrying away group after group Of the
unfortunate men ON board.
News Of the wreck was conveyed to
Corunna, distance of go miles, over the
mountain roads.
The Serpent's complement was 17C
officers and men: all the others on board
were going out to relieve men now on
ships on the African station.
THE NEWS REoE1vED IN ENGLAND.

Another Banking Institution.

The visit of Hon. S. r. Hauser to This
city was not only for the purpose of IN
speeding the property of the Union
Smelling company here, in which he is
now TO some extent interested. Another
object was to look over the ground with
the view of establishing a solid banking
house in this city, which would be ii con
nection of the First National of Helena
and its allied banks throughout the state.
With this view Mr.. Hauser met here by
appointment Mr.. y. E. Conrad of Benton
and Mr.. r. S. Ford of Sun river valley.
The proposition is to remove the First
National of Benton to this city and in
crease its capital stock to $250,O00 This
seemed very desirable on the part of
Messrs. Hauser and Conrad but it was
desired, if possible, to absorb what is
known as the Jno. T. Murphy bank, soon
to be established here, but here was the
rub; the promoters of that enterprise are
not inclined to give it up, and it is doubt
full if the desired absorption will take
place. Some skirmishing on the line
will be done the next few days and we
will oon know what form the new bank.
ing enterprise will take. We understand
that Mr.. Chas. E. Conrad of Benton is to
be its president. Great Falls is now the
Mecca towards which the eyes of the
states capitalists are all directed.

who died in Boston, Sunday morning
from an overdose of choral which he
took a%ccidently. He was in Butte last
March and was so we'll liked that he was
invited to lecture there a second time or
his return from the coast. His career
was full of adventure. lie was born on
the banks of the Boyne, in Ireland in
1914. He Joined the Tenth hussars to
learn the art of wal and was successful
in causing many comrades to join the
Fenian movement. For this he was tried
by court martial and sentenced to be
shot. His sentence was committed to
penal scrvitude for life. He escaped
from Australia to this country where he
became chief owner of the Boston Pilot
and made his mark in American lltera-
ture as a writer of prose and poetry. He
was a sterling. democrat and was in the
prime of life at the time of his lament.

he was unusually bright Mr.. Maher had

several checks which bore the signature

Terrible Timber Fire.

Louis Goslin arrived from Barker Sun
day night. He reports that the timber
fire east OF Barker has reached the sum-
nit of the B~lankenship trail and is burn
ing in heavy timber. About 40 of the
men from Barker went out and fought
the fire for three days and nights, but it
made sucli long leaps that they could not
stop it. In one place 1T made a jump of
over 100 yards and was DOL beyond all
control. Unless a heavy rain comes or
the wind changes 1t will sweep all the
timber east of Barker and will probably
destroy the town. The fire started from
Mullen's camp fire. He was cutting hay
in the park and 1t burned two days before
any effort was made to check it. If Null
len had tried he could easily have ex-
tinguished 1t. He has wisely left that
part of the county rather than place

THE CENSUS or MONTANA,

The census Office at Washington has
obligingly figured out a population of
1881 for Montana. As Montana is a
state of magnificent distances" it would
be safe to assume that 10000 people were
not enumerated, and that our population
is 10000, if not more. Certainly no
state or part of Il state, cast 3S,552 votes
last year with less people that 10000.
Helena alone claims 5000 people more
than the official census We shall not
ask Uncle Sam for a recount. A few
thousand people, more or less, does not
concern Montana. 1t is quality not num-
bers that Montana takes into account

BENTON SENDS GREETING.

If a future of q town may be measur-
ed by the pluck, energy, enterprise and
confidence of its citizens, Great Falls is
destined to become a magnificent and
prosperous city. Every public and pri-
vate improvement is conceived and per-
fected upon a line leading zenithwards.
The sim is high and though the shot may
miss its mark it cannot fall to the com
monplace. Its water works, electric
light plant, sewerage system, horse car
and motor lines are cast in heroic mOlds,
and give rise to the belief that their pro
moters count upon Il city of $4,000 souls
in the not distant future.
The Ulm, the Collins Il Reeder and
the Lepley IL Collins blocks; the Realty
building; the splendid school building;
the great dam at Black Etgle falls; the
magnificent Great Northern railway de-
pot and cores of lesser enterprises were
pointed out by Mr.. Green and noted by
the Faber pusher. They evidenced the
existence of a faith in the future of Great
Falls, which it must be ACKNOWLEDGED is
founded upon possibilities within the
grasp of the enterpising people of the
place.
The erection of the mammoth smelter
and refining works at Black Eagle; the
contemplated construction of other works
below the great dam; the early compile
ton of the G. F. & G. railway, and the ex-
tension of the Sand Coulee road to the
Neihart mines are among the certainties
upon which the people bank. Alto
gether they will give the place a volume
of business enjoyed by no other locality
in the state and advance it to the very
front among its most prosperous and
wealthy cities. But it will take time to
bring this about, and not such a very long
time either.-Fort Benton River Press.

REPORTS of state conventions burden
the wires nightly. In Minnecota. North
and South Dakota, state conventions have
been held and the campaign opened. In
these states the conditions as to rural life
are very much like our own. In coun.
ties like this, it would take fully a week
to make known when and where primar.
les are to be held. Then a week might
be allowed for assembling at the county
seat to elect delegates. That election
should precede the state convention by
about a week. 1t follows that if our
state convention is to Immediately pre-.
cede or follow the republican convention
it should be called soon. As a rule all
party conventions should be held about
the same time. The democratic candi-
date should visit each of the 16 counties;
If the journey to each county and the
stay therein takes two days, or the aver
age, over a month will be needed for that
purpose alone. There is no time to lose.

WALTER BROWN of Boston's circular
shows how w~oolgrowers have been hum.
plugged by the Mckinley bill which has
caused them a loss of some hundred
thousand dollars. 1t says: "The McKin-
ley tariff bill has ceased to be an import
ant factor in the outlook of wool this
year, the great delay in legislative action
has enabled importers to glut our markets
with goods in anticipation of its passage,
and whether the bill becomes a law OF
not, these goods will tend to check any
material advance in domestic woole1s for
many months to come"

THE TRIBUNE having shed a flood OF
light on Colonel McCutcheon's claims,
all its contemporaries are beginning to
talk of him. The River Press says:
"What is the matter with Col. |. d. Nc
Cutcheon as a republican candidate for
congress? On the score of ability, active
service and loyalty to his party he is the
peer of any other man in 1t in Montana.
He is moreover sound on Precinct 3D."
The Independent also speaks of him, but
credits the suggestion to the wrong
source. We are not in quest of republic
can candidates, but We feel bound to
rescue the colonel from the malign arts
of the slate-makers.
