roll Manufacturing Is what we
require" Well. we have insti-
t.1ted tho pioneer Shirt Factory
OF Montana. We have an ex-
perienced corps Of operators,
who live in houses, eat gro
ceries, patronize meat shops and
bakeries; wear dry goods and
shoes, and we call on landlords,
grocers, butchers, bakers, dry goods
and shoenen, and in fact all who
are interested in FIelena's pros
perity, to have a dozen or hall
dozen shirts made, and keep these
operators busy and encourage one
Of the pioneer industries of the
city.
Everybody with the perceptive
abilities Of a two-year-old will rec
ognize the fact that there are two
kinds of clothing business. One is
the noisy and sensational, while
the other is the conservative and
nneritorious. One deals in the
sham and snowy style Of the cir
to the exact style and satisfaction
Of the customer. One will tell how
they sell goods for less than cost,
the other argues on the best quail
ty, and endeavors to persuade the
public that in the genuine is the
satisfaction. One deals in sidewalk
solicitation, button holing the
passer-by, while the other, relying
on the merit of his goods and the
correct principles OF the day,
makes his general appeal in the
legitimate manner and does the
balance of his business inside his
store.
It is sad commentary on the
condition of business to think tn at
theChatham street style of business
is still in vogue in the city Of Hele-
ma, and that it meets with any pat
ronage whatever. ."H

STRETCHED THE LIMIT.
The Milwaukee Is Accused OF SO
Doing.


The case of the Omaha against the
Milwaukee Railway company. on al
legged excessive limits on Chicago
tickets from Duluth, comes before
Chairman Finley at Chicago Friday
next. The Omaha claims that the Mil
waukee has violated its agreement
made in the Western Passenger associ-
alton, and has appealed TO the chair
Juan. The case in question is in regard
to three tickets sold 10y it from Duluth
to Chicago. a short time ago. with a
limit of two days instead of one, which
the Omaha says. under the agreement,
the Milwaukee is only entitled 10.
1t also claims that if Chairman Finley
deci DIES the case in its favor. the Mill
waukee will be Obliged to pay 500 fine
for each violation, and forfeit the
amount received for each ticket sold.
On the other hand, the Milwaukee
Will claim that the agreement was Il
limit OF two days, and in case any road
was found granting an excessive limit
on these tickets that the penalty, under
the agreement, would simply be the re-
dempiiOn of those tickets sold. Both
roads are taking lively interest in the
matter. and some rich developments
may be expected at the meeting, as it is
said the Milwaukee will file some
counter charges.

SINGH ON "HELLOs -
The Bell Telephone Company Is of
ODinion IL Has One.

Hra
WASHINGTON, Nov. l7.-Tnday the
United States patent Office issued a
patent TO Emile BerIiner, assignorato
the Bell Telephone company. for a eoai-
bined telegraph and telephone. which
has been pending in that Office since
June 4. 1877. 1t is understood that the
Bell Telephone COLE pany believes that
this patent covers features which are
necessary to the practical nSe of tele-
phones. Inventors do not take that
view of the patent. They think that
when Bells basic patent expires, March
Z. 1898, they will be able TO produce
practical telephones not infringing the
Berliner patent.
The issue of this patent is the second
step taken by Commissioner SImOndS,
and possibly the last which will be
necessary to take 10 practically dispose
of long existing tangIe of telephone
litigation in the patent Office. The first
step was his decision of Oct. 30. 1891,
lately published. denying telephone
patent TO Daniel Drawbaugn on his 1880
application, because that invention has
been in public use for more than two
years prior, and also because the SUI
preme court had decided that Draw
baugh did not Invent the telephone.
Berliner'S patent has been in a humber
of interferenees with other applications,
among others with one of Edison from
1878 to 1856. For q number of years LAST
past it has been held in the Office by the
application of Drawbaugh. it being nee
essary to put it into interference there
with, ii Drawbaugh otherwise es ab-
lished his right to a patent, which he
failed to do. 1t is stated that, with
Drawbaugh out of the way. the Berliner
patent was entitled to issue as matter
of course. Every other question in the
case was finally adjudicated years ago.

CHICAGO, Nov. 17.-Chairman Finley
on Sept. p preferred charge against
the Chicago, ST. Paul & Kansas City
railway for violation of the agreement
of the Western Passenger association
regarding the rule which provides that
mileage tickets shall be restricted to the

both of these defenSes and requires the
Chicago, st. Paul IL Kansas City to pay

IMMIGRANT IaMoRALITY.
Il Special Commissioner Makes
Grave Charges.


NEW YORK, Nov. IA sensation
that threatens 20 be far more than a
nine days wonder occurred at the barge
office yesterday. 1t came as the cul-
mination of a detective trip of Special
Commissioner Ii. L. Schulters, and in
the shape of the brOadest charge of
grosseSt immortality that ever was lev
eIed at immigrants to this country. 1t
attacked 1l6 of them. and implicated
some Of the crew OF the steamship Ser
via. Schulters, it appears, dis
guised himself as an immi-
grant and took passage OH the
Seryia to this country in the Steerage.
When the vessel arrived yesterday he
made known his identity TO Supt. Weber
and demanded that ZIG of theiimmi7
grants be detained, charging them with
immortality and with being assisted
paupeTS.
Col. Weber asked the commisSio TO
make specific charges of immortality
against any one of the Immigrants and
he would at once investigate the case.
Mr.. Schulters then made formal charges
OF immortality against lngoberg Peter
sen. a Seyenteen-year-Old Swedish girl.
He mentioned some of the crew OF the
Servia as having been her accOmpliceS
in vice. The girl denied the charge
with great vehemence, made affidayits
as to her innocence, and requested an
examination by physiciaH.~ Col. Weber
promptly released her, as we'll as the
other immigrants on Mr.. Schulters' fail
uTe to prove any OF his charges. The
Petersen girl has been advised to bring
an action for criminal SANDER against
the commissioner.

A Fire Bug Confesses His Crime
in Pittsburg.


PITTsBURG, Pa, Nov. 17.-In the
United States circuit court the case OF
The Peoples Fire Insurance Company
against ID. W. Holt was placed on trial
today. The case involves about $780,
There are sixteen similar cases against
Holt, which will probably be decided by
| this one. The present suit is TO recover
s., 500 paid to Holt on fire insurance
! policy. Holt was a lumber merchant in
PhillipSburg, Pa, and had large lum-
Der yard. Some time ago it was de-
strOyed by fire and Holt recovered $780,

lumber as he actually had at the time

| a. Ii. Carpenter, former empioye OF
Holt, was placed on the stand, and his
| testimony was of highly sensational
character. lie testified that Holt had
instructed him that when he was
making his daily returns to the book

increase the amounts each day until

/ total about twice that OH hand
! This done, he said that Holt made a
proposition to him that, if he would fire
the lumber, he Holt would give him a
quarter-interest in the business and 10
per cent OF the insurance, which prOpo-
! sition he admitted he agreed to. Wit
ness then explained how he prepared
foxes saturated with oil to fire the yard,
concluding as follows: ION the night of
Aug 81, 1882, Holt came to ME about :

the work up. Holt then left said the

CHICAGO, Nov 1.-THE general pas

eral passenger agent of the PittSburg &

time selling split tickets over their
lines. Mr.. Bassett was notified several
days ago of the purchase from scalpers
IL this city of tickets issued by his COM
pany at $40, reading Chicago to Mime
apolis. In reply he said his agents sold
them in connection with mileage tickets
from starting point to Chicago, and
would account for them at full tariff,
Sl1.50, thus making a tirst-cIass rate of
$3.50 from Pittsburg to st. Paul against
the lowest ditfereutial rate, which is
SD. Mr.. Bassett is now Informed that
by this splitting OF tickets he is inter
fering with the revenues of the North
