MmsouLA, Sept. T.-[Special. 1-Coroner
Myers this afternoon received telegram
from H. G. Schwamb, of Butte, inquiring OF
the disposition made of the body Of George
Peterson who. he says, was killed last week,
ana wanting to know what papers were
found on him. The coroner ia at loss to
know who Peterson could have been. There
was no one killed in Missoula county last
week, but in all probability it may be the
man Welch who was pounded to death by
Jack Barry at Carter week before last, and
he may have gone under an assumed name
at Carter. @
Evidently some of the prisoners now in
jail awaiting trial have some friends on the
outside who would like to help them get
out. just after dinner to-day the deputy
sheriffs took q trip through the cells and
their search was rewarded by 5he finding Of
the blade of butcher knife some seven
inches in length, which had been converted
into fine saw, with which the bars Of the
jail could have been cut. The prisoners
had evidently had no time or opportunity
to use it as careful investigation revealed
no place where use had been made of it.
Concealed in a blanket in Pierre Paul's
cell was $3.50 in monev. The forethought
and vigilance of the officers had no doubt
frustrated an attempt at Jail breaking and
they will be still more careful in the future.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1S.-There Was scene
of excitement on the republican side of the

tested election case was on the table as un-
finished business, but the house itself was
engaged in the technical proceeding Of
trying to approve yesterdays Journal. The
democratic members were endeavoring in
every way to prevent the consideration of

policy almost all of them left the hall to

which brought in number of democrats,
and yea and nay vote was being taken on
the motion to dispense with further pro

members again began to decamp. Burrows

were intended to secure this end. He did

Parnellites Greatly Surprised by the Ar
rests-Their Explanation.
LONDON. Sept. 18.-The one topic in Lon
don to-day is the news from Ireland. The
general feeling of profound surprise is that
the government had kept it's secret 30 we'll.
No hint of the intended action had reached
the public; no explanation of the reason OF
the governments course is vouchsafed. On
all sides doubts are expressed as to the po-
litical wisdom displayed, but it is too early
to predict the effect on the public of Eng
land. Parnellites, while greatly surprised,
are not cast down. Their theory of the ar
rests at this junctu-e is that the govern
ment had decided on them to prevent the
departure of Dillon and O. 'Brien to America,
because they feared the effect of the
speeches of the Irish orators would be to
create fresh outbursts of American svmpa-
thy with the Irish home rulers, which
would be of great moral help to the liberal
cause championed by Gladstone.
Up to this evening no definite informa-
tion has reached here of the specific utter
ances of Dillon and O'Brien, for which they
were arrested. It is supposed. however, the
ostensible grounds of OBrien's arrest are
the speech he made last Sunday at Schulz,
In speaking of the failure of the potato
crop duu klOOuly OUTLOOK ne SAID tenants
should meet and consult as to kwhat
proportions of rent they could
pay and abide by the decision.
If tenants would absolutely refuse to nav
a penny of rent until every family that
titled the soil was placed beyond the reach
of starvation, then if the government
evicted starving people it would be swept
out of existence BY torrent Of English in
dignation and the whole civilized world
would send money and assistance.
Michael Davitt takes hopeful view of
the situation and says the effect would be
favorable to the cause. Balfour, he said,
has never made greater mistake.
To Prevent Their Visit
LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 1S.-President Fitz.

mile house on tbe ranch of John Mahony.
Fire had been set by an incendiary to some
hay stacks, containing 160 tons OF hay, in
four different places. The officers have a
clue as to the perpetrators of the crime and
it is likely that arrests will be made. About
year ago Mahony had three parties ar
rested for stealing his stock and slaughter
