posed that the Montana Union problem ia
the one which they are coming to solve, the
incorporation OF the new line from Butte to
Anaconda having probably convinced them
that the situation was becoming serious for
the Montana Union. Just what tho Gould
party's intentions are Ia not definitely
known, but when the members finish the
business on the west side 1t is thought they
will come over to Helena. Director Jesse
Spaldine's recommendation that the Union
Pacific should extend its lines in Montana
and thus secure a larger share Of the states
traffic, may induce Mr.. Gould to devote
some time to the state. 1t is the announced
intention of the party now in control of the
Union Pacific to extend the system, n
Gould is one of the builders of railways
who first inspect u country generally before
he goes ahead. 1t has been rumored for
some time that the Union Pacific would ex-
tend it's lines in Montana this year, and the
visit OF Gould aud Dillon may be in con-
nection with these extensions, MS we'll rs to
attend to the Montana Union trouble.

ST.. PAUL, May 2l.-iSpeoial. III. A.
Heath, proprietor Of the kansRs Farmer, Of
which Senator Pfcter was the editor prior
to his election. arrived from Montana to-
day. Mr.. Heath 10 q special agent Of tho
bureau Of animal industry in the depart
mont Of agriculture At Washington, and has
been engaged In Investigating the sheep
and wool business of Montana and the Da-
kotas. Although a southwestern man, he
says the pastures OF the northwest ara very
much superior to those Of the southwest.
The grass ID more abundant and more nu-
~tritious. He reports the flocka in Montana
and the Dakosas in excellent condition. He
thinks that before the present year has
passed, these three states will have 100000
sheep. The climate is peculiarly conducive
to health and they multiply very rapidly.
He reports the increase an fifteen per cent.
greater in these northwestern states than
n the southwest, a fact which he was I'M
prepared to accept until he had satisfied
himself by HIS own investigation. He says
the loan companies and other capitalists
are furnishing the money to stock Dakota
farms, and that it is sure to prove of i'm
mense benefit to the northwest. This is
I he way that some Of the largest aheep
owners of Montana got their start. and the
from Witch they have accumulated
big fortunes. He thinks the Dakotas and
Montana will in a few years become the
of the sheep industry in this
country.

No Advance in Rates.

The restoration of passenger rates be-
tween st. Louis and Chicago and between
Kansas City and st. Louis has not gone
into effect as ordered by Chairman Finley,
of the Western Passenger association. The
Wabash and the Atchison made a pretense
of advancing the rate from st. Louis to
Chicago, as the Burlington did from Kan
sas City to st. Louis, but they immediately
applied to MIR. Finley for relief on the
ground that the Chicago d Alton was con-
tlnulng to sell tickets ut the reduced rates.
reduced rates still prevail on all lines.
1t now remains to be seen what course
will be taken as Il result of the Atoms re-
fusal to abide by the chalrman's Or
der. At the time the ruling was made the
Alton announced that it would refuse to
advance the rates 80 long as the
boycott of the eastern roads re-
NAMED in force. This left three a%lterna-
tlveS open to it. One was to appeal from
the chairman's decision, another was to
withdraw from the association and the
third was to pay the penalty for a violation
OF the agreement. AS neither of the first
two alternatives has been adopted it seems
more than probable that the Alton people
have concluded to pay the penalty, which is
not large. and remain In the ASSOCIATION,
They Seem to be satisfied with the presen,
state OF affairs and the outlook for thu
future. They have unofficial information
that the Nickel Plate has resunlsd the sal,
of their tickets at all competitive points
and they say their position is bein.
strengthened.
f. G. Donald, a member of the board o
rulings that is managing the boycott
against the Alton, ridicules the story from
New York concerning the acceptance o
Alton tickets by eastern trunk lines. He il
positive that every road in the agreement
is living up to its pledges.

Crooked Insurance Brokers.

New York, May 2l.-A morning paper
says the failure of the insurance brokerage
hrm of Satterlee, BostWick & Martin is an
nounced. F.om charges made by the most
reputable underwriters of New York and
statements by the president or resident
manager of the greatest insurance corpora
tons OF the country, it appears that foI
nearly a year certain members of the firm
have systematically m~isappropriated funds
planced in their hands for the payment OF
various corporations. The failure was the
inevitable consequence of these transac
tons. Tine amount involved in this neg
lect to pay premiums and losses, which this
lrm collected az agents, reaches nearly
$4,000.

Trouble with Peru.

Cry OF MEXICO, May 2O.-From advices
received here from Chilli and from informa-
lion derived from an Italian actor h ar
rived from there it appears the news pub
lished in the United States and Europe
about the revolution causes laughter. as
MANY of the so-called insurgent victories
are myths. The actor believes difficulty
will soon arise between Chill and Peru.
The latter country, he says, is fostering the
revolution, and large amounts of English
gold comes from there for h revolu-
~tionists.

Conductors and the Federation.

81. LOUIS, May 21.-Itis a very significant
fact that while the order of railway con-
ductors decided to federate the convention
took no step looking to the accomplish
ment of that emu. No application has been
made. The order, it is stated, seeks to be-
come a member without making application,
SO that if they should ut n time become
dissatisfied with the federation they can
withdraw and say the officers had no right
to federate. Officers decline to discuss the
matters.

stating that the Itata 10 to be peaceably sur
rendered to tho United States by the insur-
gents upon her arrival in Chill, was shown
TO officials of the navy and state depart
ments to-day, but one and all declined to

the insurgents when abe reaches Chill. but
that when she is 40 surrendered the vessel
will be found to have discharged her arms

whether abe had violated the neutrality
If she stands trial on that charge the
status of the insurgents must be iudicially

Somebody Poisons Captain 4. J.
McCape's Dog Jack"
II the ruthless destroyer who admins
tered the deadly dose to Capt. {. ]. Nc
Cape's black dog Jack" could see lack"
now, remorse would undoubtedly tug at
his heart-strings.
The killer, whoever he was, passed
Capt, McCape's residence ON Grove street
Tuesday evening and threw chunk OF
poisoned beef over the fence. Jack" all
unsuspecting, gulped down the meat. and
soon thereafter was dead.
Capt. McCape's grief scarcely knew
any bounds. The dog, which every resi-
dent of Asheville had come to know and
respect. had, with his brother, a large
yellow dog, been Capt. McCape's con-
stant companion on the streets for years.
Always harmless and friendly Jack"
had become fixture and pet with all
who knew him and his traits.
But some wanton hand had extin
gushed the lamp Of lite in lack" and
the grieved owner determined to give the
dog burial commensurate with his
services during the eight years of his life.
The body was turned over to Blair &
Brown. undertakers, with orders to fit
il for burial. The BODY was accordingly
embalmed in the best style, and encased
in neat black cloth covered casket with
silver trimmings. The flower, overed
casket and its lifrless contents rest in the
undertaking department of Blair &
Brown, where it can be seen by anyone
who so desires.
The body will be taken tomorrow to
Capt. McCape's old home on the Swan
nanoa, about seven miles cast OF Ashe-
vile, where it will be buried under the
spreading boughs of the trees on the old
homestead.
The grief of Jacks" mate and brother
is pitiiul. Every part of the Captains
residence has been visited by the dog, and
his grief is inconsolablc.

on every prescription. We
do not take goods that the
