Many Persons Out Of Work.

GLASGOW, Dec. 24.-There are no sign.
OF Improvement in connection with tht
railroad strike in Scotland. 1t is esti
mated that $500 men are now out on a
strike and business is at a standstill. On
the North British lines traffic is sus,
pended while Others are working in an
irregular manner. The business people
residing in the suburbs are obliged to
walk from their out-of.town residences
to the city. In and about Glasgow the
prices OF coal have already advanced
seven shilling per ton with prospect of a
still further advance in price before long.
In addition to the coal trouble which
seriously affects the poorer classes al
ready, it is said that n gas famine is en-
minent and the police are already taking
steps to provide force of special con.
stables to guard the city is case the sup.
ply of gas should give out and the city b.
plunded into total darkness at night. All
ship building yards and public works are
without fuel and they expect to Ike forced
to close their doors unless the strike is
settled within very short time.
A strong detachment of police are
guarding the railroad depots, which are
surrounded by crowds of strikers, ac-
companisd by their wives and families,
who jeer and laugh at the bungling
efforts Of the railroad porters, lamp men,
sweepers, clerks and Others who have
been pressed into service, new to them,

From the River Press,

Shelby Junction, on the Canada narrow.
guage, is said to be the toughest station
In the state. The railway company dares
not step a coal train there in the night
long enough for orders, as there will be
twenty men aboard tossing off coal before
the train Is fairly at a stand still. They
buy little or 10 coal yet they always have
plenty.
James Lynch, James Williams and
flames Schell. three bad Jims, of the gay
and festive town Of Shelby Junction
came down last evening with Sheriff
O'Neal under arrest. Lynch this morn
ing pleaded guilty before Justice b. l..
Powerato stealing coal from the Canada
railway. He was fined 1876 and cost and
sentenced to sixty days in the county Jail.
schell pleaded guilty to stealing some
clothing and went to Jail on a $40 fine
and a sentence of thirty days in the
county Jail.
Hon. Perry W. Meadow, of the world
renowned Spotted Horse mine, Fergus
county, arrived from the great property
this afternoon in private conveyance ac-
companied by two mel and bringing over
two hundred and fifty pounds of gold,
valued at $4,000. The gold vas imme-
diately shipped east to the Philadelphia
mint by express. This $4,000 was pounds
ed out of the Spotted Horse mine ore by
the mill in a forty days'ruD, which equals
$3.50 per day. MI. Meadow informs us
that the mine never looked better, or as
we'll as it does now, and he is very glad
to again be the happy possessor Of a prop
erty which he considers we'll worth many
millions of dollars. Owing to the search
ty OF water, and also because Mr.. Meadow
does not wish to remain in the mountains
all winter, the mill was closed down a
few days ago for the winter. In the
meantime Mr.. Meadow has a force Of
men employed in getting out ores, run
ming levels, and otherwise developing the
great property. He will spend about
three months In southern California, en-
joying comfort and rest. In early spring
he will again return and give his personal
attention to the working Of the mill and
mine. Mr.. Meadows legion Of friends
In Montana and elsewhere are rejoicing
with him In his good fortune. !

A Cozy Cottage Just Completed for
A. J.. Trigg-It Contains all
the Modern Con-
veniences.
Full Particulars Of the Shooting o.
Snow Creek-It was Done in
tSelf Defence.

A representative of the TRIBUNE was
taken over to the town of Willard, which
is situated at the transfer yards and tur-
minus of the Great Falls 81. Canada rail
road (the narrow guage). AT this point all
the coal from the valuable coal fields at
Lethbridge has to be handled and trans
ferred to the broad-guage of the Great
Northern and the Montana Central roads.
The coal transfer Is an extensive trestle
allowing the cars filled with coal to be
dumped, and by a system of three screens
to each car the coal is delivered to the
broad-guage cars standing OF three paral-
lei tracks under the t%restle, thoroughly
screened, one car taking the slack, the
second the nut coal and the third the
furnace coal.
The Great Falls & Canada railroad
company realizing the important smelt-
ing point Great Falls is destined to be-
come, have spared no expense in laying a
foundation for the largest system of
transfer in the northwest. Next summer
will see a large addition to their rolling
stock, machine and repair shops which
are to be located here.
The townsite of Willard is laid out to
give building lots to employees of the
road and others, and being located on
good level ground will afford a choice
residence location. Buildings are just
being started and, as the railroad will
give employment to about $50 to 800 men,
there is bound to be a population of at
least 500 to 600. Ali these additions
in the way of Improvements being located
near to Great Falls give some indications
why this city is destined to become the
largest in the state and at no very dis
tant period. 1t requires but little fore
sight to see that what the Northern Pa
cific addition, with its well populated
streets, is to Helena, so Willard must be
to Great Falls.
The class of people who are becoming
interested in Willard make it a sure thing
that it will not only be a valuable addl-
ton to our city, but in a short time be a
part of the city itself. The rapid transit
that will run from Great Falls to and past
Willard will make this a point that no
ont who is carefully looking around for
future developments will overlook the
advantages here presented.
