A SHOWING OF STRENGTH.
Msjor-Gen. Miles Would Like Gran
Military Encampment.

Msjor-Gen. Miles Would Like Grand
Military Encampment. @
CHICAGO, Oct. 27.-There was quite q
gathering of prominent miliatiamen here
to-day to discuss the subject of grand
military encampment during the exposi-
ton. Maior-Gen. Miles stated that he
would like to have grand national en-
campment of 100000 men at the fair.
European countries all have gigantic re-
views, and the national guard, if it wishes
to become great element Of strength,
must get together in national convention.
Gen. Miles thought the government should
pay for the transportation of the militia
from the different states to Chicago. Gen.
Ben Truman stated that he was instructed
by the acknowledgement Of California to
say that that state would send a regiment
here, and that perhaps considerable money
would be raised to defray the expenses. A
resolution setting forth the expedienoy of
military display at the dedication OF tho
exposition, and also that as the exposition
company was to furnish shelter and sub
sistence, the several states should pay for
the transportation of their own troops, was
introduced, but before any action was
taken, tho convention adjourned.

LIVINGSTON, Oct. N.--t Special. The
The trial OF Godfrey Demers, CHARGED wish
the murder of j. b. Dilworth. was COM
meneed in the district court this morning.
Attorney A. j. Campbell asked that John
4. Smith be admitted as associate counsel
with him for the defense and Allan r. Joy,
for the prosecution, requested . like pfiyi-
lege for Judge Mcdonnell, Of Helena.
Campbell objected to this snd offered 70
produce authority to sustain his objection,
but Judge Henry promptly ovsrruled the
objection, and Judge Mcconnell WAS ad-
mitted to assist IN the prosecution. After
Jury had been secured the witnesses,
about twenty in number, were called 70 %
sworn. Many Of these were objected to By
the attorney for the defense for the reason
that their names did not appear on tho
back OF the information. Nearly two hours
was exhausted in arguing this point.
but the witnesses were all finally admitted
conditionally. The hrst witness called for
the prosecution was John Warner, who was
in the employ OF Dilworth, and but shors
distance away at the time Of the shooting.
He testified that he was moving hay when
he saw Dilworth riding toward Demers,
and az he was turning the team at corner
OF the meadow he heard two shots. When
he turned he saw smoke, and saw Dill
worth's horse plunging and running away.
He saw tho horse was without rider, ana
he went over to where he had last seen Dill
worth, and found him lying on his left side,
face downwards. About this time George
Dilworth, son Of the deceased, came up and
thev turned the body over and saw that
Dilworth had been shot in the
left breast Just bslow the collar
bon 9, the bullet coming out at the top OF
the shoulder. He was unconscious. Tho
two men went back, hitched the moving
team to q wagon. lifted the body into II
and started for home.
The trial Of this case will probably take
several days. Demers. who Is under
bond, is a young man probably 30
years Of age. and appears confident OF ac-
uuital. The court room was more crowded
to-day than at any time during the
term. and interest will increase - the
