GREAT NORTHERN IN MONTANA,

KALIsPELL Mont, Nov. 29-[Special Corro-
spondence. 1.-THE traeklayers on the Pacific ex-
tension of the Great Northern railway will
spend Christmas in Kalispell," said store
keeper Tor Shepard, Seims & Co., who came in
from the end of the track yesterday. He said
the end of the track WAS now this side of Mud
creek, or about twelve miles from the Flathead
river crossing Porter Bros, who have the
bridge contract, are confident that they will not
delay tracklaying more than a week or ten days
The track crosses the Fisthead river about four
miles from the mouth of Bad Rock canyon and

is level. SO that once across the bridge

Hspell. II may seem strange to some that it has
taken all summer TO cross the main range of the
Rockies, but after one has gone over the line
and has seen the inclines and declines curves

the feat OF constructing railroad there has
been accomplished. The grading has all been
finished from the end of the tracks as far west
as Tuohy's tunnel, tnirty-ive miles west of
here, but as soon as the track reaches here, the
traeAiayers will be engaged in putting in the
switches and liking up the yards at this place.

terminus OF the Great Northern. Material for

pushed west.
The growth Of kalispell has been marvellous
The population is now al the 90 mark while
the hrst house was not put up until near the
first OF June OF this year. Nearly every branch
OF trade is represented here. There is no town
or city of any consequence within a radius of
300 miles. shepard, Seims & Co, the contract
ors, have ordered the location OF their immense
supply house here, the ground for which has
been selected. Their manager, who was here
today, said they would open up here about De-
Cember l.
The tapping OF this valley by the Great North
ern is OF iuestimable value, not onlv to residents
of this section. but to the big cities east and
west OF here. Heretofore il has been useless TO
raise crops beyond the amount necessary TO
supply the local demand, as there were no
means of getting il out of the valley except at
losing cost Grain grows in abundance here
and a market is now afforded. il will bs
grown ON a large scale. The numbering and
other industries will also thrive The products
will be shipped to the outside world and sun-

Belgian mission had no opportunity OF escaping
The slaughter commenced with the killing Il

by fends, who afterwards Drained them visa
massive clubs. The Belgian priests were cruelty
tortured, but met their fates with Christian
resignation. One had his heart and tongue
torn from his body, and MS body was burned by
the savsges in murderous frenzy.
The most astounding statement is that after
the misereants had been satisfied with outrage
and slaughter they were fessted and feted By the
leading Chinese mandarin in the district. The
foreign diplomatic body at Pekin is simply
furious. The whole European colony is boiling
with indignation. The news from Mongolia is
serious. The rebel forces are reported growing
larger, and their forward march has continued
so far uninterruptedly. The imper-
tal troops are not yet in touch
with the rebels. Further detaehments of troops
have been ordered forward. The rebels in their
southwark march occupied the town without
any resistance being made by the populace. At
all places through which they passed the rebels
made acquisitions on the Inhabitants for sup

NAVAL ENGINEER CORPS.
Need of More Men to Look After Ma
chinery of Warships.

WASHINGTON CITY. Nov. 29.-COmmodore Mel
willie, chief OF steam engineering, has submitted
his annual report. Alter detailing the work
accomplished during the past year and the con-
dition of the machinery OF vessels, the report
touches upon the needs ot the various navy
yards By far the most important feature OF the
report OF the commodore is the statement
touching the personnel of the engineer corps
He says:
Il is with regret that am again compelled 10
report number of the engineer officers fneffi-
eieut for the proper performance of the duties
belonging TO them, and 10 emphas y the fact
that unless measures are a. once taken 10 rem
efIy this condition ana stop the steady decrease
in numbers, we shall before long have painful
awakening by serious breakdown or accident
on some of the vessels. There is iiIais 20
even a naval engineers endurance, and while
officers Of the engineer corps will do their best
II make all needful repairs and keep in Efficient
condition the magnificent machinery Of the
new vessels, they can 60 no further than the
limit of their personal strength. When this is
reached the machinery must take care OF
Itself.
Commodore says the nuGber Of engineer
officers should be al least 800 and even this
number /. inadequate unless supplemented by
= sufficient number of intelligent and skilled
arsifcers and well trained hTeIaen.
