WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-Justice Miller

and apparently without pain. A few min
utes before he died the phlegm in his
throat gradually accumulated and his
frame quivered. Ii was evident the end

vine, there were present DR.. Cook, j. w.
Woolworth. an old friend of Justice
Miller. who had just arrived from Omaha,
and the family servants, and Chief Clerk
Mckenney OF the supreme court.
Soon after death the face of the justice,
which had become somewhat drawn dur
ing the last days of his illness, changed to
perfectly normal condition, and he looked
as il in a quiet sleep. No arrangements
for the funeral will be made until to-
morrow, but il is certain that his remains
will be removed to his home at Keokuk
IA, where they will be inferred in the
family burying ground.
Tomorrow the supreme court will meet
as usual and after the announcement OF
the death of Associate Justice Miller b,
Chief Justice Fuller the court will adjourn

GREAT FALLS, Oct. t3.-A strike oc-
CURED here this morning by which be-
tween 500 and COO men went out. IL was
the result Of an agitation which has been
going on for some weeks. A small body
of men first waited on Kirkendall's men
grading for the Boston and Montana
smelter and asked that they strike. This
they did and enlarged the crowd. Then
they went to the Boston and Montana
works and TO the dam, making the same
request. A few refused TO quit and con-
tinued work, when they were threatened.
They stood their ground, however, and
worked the entire day.
The crowd, numbering about go, then
went 10 the Montana smelter and de-
manded that the men there quit. The
large force overawed them and they did so.
Superintendent Stith asked that the men
he left in charge Of the blast furnace and
this was done. Your correspondent is
informed tonight, however, that the fires
must be drawn and much damage to the
company will result.
The men then came 10 the city and held
a meeting at which they were addressed
by the chief agitator, one William Zim-
norman, who is a printer working on n
republican newspaper here. Most Of them
went back TO the works tonight
and many will go to work tomorrow.
There was no violence except that tools
were taken from the men at the dam and
the harm done at the Montana smclter,
The men interested in the strike are la
borers who demanded s2.50per day. They
are now paid S2.25.
Only few men are involved. or the
30 men on the dam 160 receive more than
the wages asked and the same PROPOSE
ton is maintained on the other works.
The strike here is generally deplored, and
il is regarded as the work OF the republi-
cans in the interest Of Hanks. II is, how
ever, certain 10 react against them.

General Belknap Found Dead In Bed mt
Washington.
WASHINGTON Oct. 12.-General w. w.
Belknap, secretary of war during Presi-
dent Grants first term was found dead in
bed at o'clock this morning. II is be-
lieved that death occurred between
o'clock Saturday night and 8 o'clock Sum
day morning. From John w. Cameron,
General Belknap's business associate, tits
learned that for sometime ii has been
the Generals habit to meet few friends
at the home of DIR. Hill, who lives less than
square away, for social game
OF cards. Saturday night he was with
them as usual and remained until
nearly midnight, when he returned tn his
apartments in the building 1420 New York
avenue, and presumably retired imme-
diately. He was never again seen alive.
About $50 this morning Cameron arrived
at the building and proceeded to the sec
ond floor where their offices and general
apartments were located. The servant
girl who keeps the rooms raped at the
door and inquired il General Belknap
was out of the city, saying she several
times since Sunday morning had tried the
doors, but found them locked. The door
was then forced open, and the body
found lying partly uncovered on the
bed with the left arm bent rigidly
toward the head and the left hand
tightly clenched, as though death came
| while he was i'm commissions. The bed
| clothes were somewhat dsarranged as il
there had been slight struggle before
death. A physician was summoned and
after making hurried examination ex-
pressed the opinion that death resulted
from stroke of apoplexy.
The coroner soon afterward arrived and
took the body i'm charge. An autopsy dis
closed the fact that the immediate cause
of death was the inflammation OF the
inner lining OF the heart. Mrs. Belknap,
who was i'm New York, was summoned by
telegraph, also the generals son Hugh
from Chicago. For some years Belknan
has been almost a constant sufferer from
gout. In February he had SO severe al
attack that he hardly left his room FOL
three months or more.
| WASHINGTON, Oct. IA, a. m.-Mrs
Belknap has decided the general shall b,
buried at Arlington cemetery, and tn,
funeral will probably take place Thurs
