Talk of Horses by Horsemen-Crops in the

MIssoULA, July 25.- Special. just at
present Missoula is saturated with ra oe
talk. On the street corners and in the COR
ridors of the hotels the conversation is OF
horses. This is undoubtedly the most sue
cessful season that the Missoula track has
had. The horses have been the best eve,
seen on this track, weather propitious
and the attendance good. The fast time
that has been made throughout demon
strates the track to be one of the fastest in
the northwest.

that a white girl is working in one of the

ENGLISH POLITICAL MATTERS
Arc in an Awful Tangle On Account OF
Prominent Men Dying,


Prominent Men Dying
TCopyrioht. BIZ the Ns,o York associated Press
LONDON, October AT no time since
the break up Of the Liberal party, on
Mr.. Gladstone's introduction Of the
Home Rule bill, have political circles
been in such state of alarm as now.
The question OF the succession TO the
House of Commons leadership, made
vacant by the death OF VIM. Henry
Smith, exciteS the hopes ard fears or
Conservatives and Liberals alike. The
former are agitated over the prospect
OF the accession OF Mr.. Goschen, whom
they detest, persisting that his claims
are past. The latter are exulting In the
probability OF breach In the ranks OF
their opponents on the eve OF the gen.
eral elections.
Mr.. Parnel's disappearance from the
field of politics adds to the perplexity
and heightens the interest Of the situa-
tion. The members Of the Carlton Club
refuse TO believe that Lord Salisbury
will appoint Mr.. Goschen to the position
held by VIM. Henry Smith, despite the
open declaration made by the friends
Of Mr.. Goschen that II he passed over
he will resign his place in the govern
ment. The Liberals earnestly desire TO
see Mr.. Goschen succeen Mr.. Smith,
knowing that he would soon be at log
qerheads with the House, and that they
could rely on his conduct as leader to
precipitate the dissolution OF Parlia-
ment.
The attitude OF the leading Parnell-
ties puts beyond a doubt their determl-
nation to maintain the conflict with
with the followers OF Mr.. Justin
Mccarthy. The vacant seats Of Cork
and Kilkenny, made so by the deaths OF
Mr.. Parnell and Sir John Pope
Hennessey, are expected to be
contested again by the rival Ma
tionalists. The talk OF the
Irish group in the National Liberal
| Club indicates the existence OF q propo-
sal to avoid a contest by giving the
Cork seat to a Parnelite, and that OF
] rr,iA1upy 10 au adDereng OF Mccarthy.
TIE temper Of the Parnollitas sis
against any compromise, for they be-
lieve that the reaction in Ireland to-
wards Parnel Is now so strong that
they may succeed even where their dead
chief failed. The want OF money re-
sources alone is likely to dampen their
combative ardor.
The mention Of the name OF John
Redmond as sectional leader arises from
Mr.. Parnell's recent confiding to him
the conduct OF the campaign In Great
Britain. The growing sense Of his
physical weakness causes Mr.. Parnell,
when to late, to begin TO arrange for a
temporary period of rest. He intimated
to his colleagues that he must remain a
while in the back ground, that John
Redmond would act as his lieutenant, he
himself continuing to direct the move
ment.
In the Hozier divorce case, which is
exciting widespread interest, there are
two co-respondents-a well known Duke
and an aristocratic military officer.
1t has transpired that Lydia Mention,
or Miller, the ex-Gaiety chorus girl,
whose suicide caused such q sensation,
was enciente, and that fears arising from
her condition had much to do with her
suicides

DUN's REPORT.

Business is Not as Good as 1t Might be
and Failures are a Little More Numer-
Gus.
New YORK, October Or. G. Dun &
Co. s. weekly review says: Failures are
rather numerous, but are in nearly all
cases the results of long-continued
commercial strain since the foreign dis
asters Of last November. 1t is true that
prices of nearly all manufactured pro-
duets are low and the margin for
profit is very narrow, While the
competition is severe. But the volume
of trade is larger than In any previous
wear in spite OF the fact that some
branches of business are retarded. 1t
is also true that collections in some quar-
ters are slow but the latest reports from
various sections are on the whole more
favorable.
The news regarding the chief indus
tries IS decidadl'I.4faTrrr NJeJI1v. IL Is IeIC
that the delay in improvement of the
demand for rails is at present the only
barrier TO general advance. In copper
there is uncertainty with sales of lake
at 1875 cents; tin is dull at 90 10, and
lead in moderate demand. The market
for wool is quiet at Boston and else
where, but sales are not small and re-
ceipts at the West greatly exceed last
years.
The Treasury has made but slight
change in the supply of currency.
With large receipts Of gold since Octo-
Der. and more coming, the shipments to
the interior have also been less fed for
the moment.
The business failures occurring
throughout the country during the last
seven days number 24O as compared
with a total of $50 for last week, and 215
same week last year.
