THE LAST NAIL.

In the Woman's Building. To Be Fur
nished by Montana.
BUTTE, Oct, H.-[Srecial.] AT the last
meeting of the lady managers of tho Co.
lumbian exposition it was voted that the
president of the board, Mrs. Potter Palmer,
should drive the last nail into the woman's
building. Mrs. j. e. Richards, Montana's
alert and energetic member of the ladies'
board, and wife of Lieut.. Gov. Richards,
requested for Montana the honor bf fur
nishing the nail the same to be made Of
silver from one of the many rich mines
of the state. A few days ago she received q
reply from Mrs. Palmer accepting the
offer and oraoiously herking Mrs. Rick
ards for the kindness. Since then several
of her friends have suggested to Mrs.
Richards the propriety of having the nail
made of copper, silver and gold, the three
metals that have made Montana the pros
porous and wealthy state it now is. The
suggestions have been accepted, and nail
appropriately shaped and engraved will be
ordered and forwarded to Chicago as soon
as completed to be used in the manner sug-
gested. 49,.

CHEYENNE PRESERVATION.

The Surveyor General Authorized to Make
survsys-Camp Poplar River.
WASHINGTON, Oct. l7.-[Spooial. Tho
surveyor general Of Montana has been
authorized by Commissioner Carter to file
tho plats OF the land surveyed within the
Cheyenne reservation. and to make addi-
tional surveys on the reservation. This
will permit the settlers who occupied tho
lands prior to Oct. l, 1884, to make final
proof and secure title to the lands they
have been living on, whether or not the
Indians have been occupying portion OF
tho lands. There are about 100 settlers
that have bsen waiting for many years to
secure title to their land, but could not on
account of the failure to file the
plAts of the lands surveyed, or lack Of
surveys Of those occupied. The lands are
now in dispute AZ to whether they should
be made part OF the reservation or thrown
open to settlement. The Harries commits
sion, which was sont ont there to settle the
difficulty. reports that the lands should be
treated as Indian lands and the Cheyennss
allowed to remain there. Secretary Noble
has finally fatty recommended to tho war
department. that the troops be not with
drawn from Camp Poplar River. II now
remains to be seen whether the military au-
thorities will be governed by the request Of
the Indian officials orsnot, but it IL possible Q
that no action will be taken until some
army officer investigates and reports upon
tho necessity OF retaining troops at that
point. The Harries commission, which
made its report yesterday. did not make
any recommendation on the subject, but
the secretary was advised by the Indian Of
flee to urge the retention of the troops.

Montgomery and q. r. Lambertson has
been for several days past getting checks
cashed on the First National bank of Helena,
the Second National bank Of st. Paul, and
the First National bank of Butte. The first
check was for 1926. on the First National,
of Helena, and 9. e. Crowley, the business
man who cashed it. suspected something
wrong and teleQraphed to Helena. He as
certained there that there was nothing on
deposit there. Hutchinson. however,
squared the matter before the police we're
notified. A second check was on the
First National, of Butte but being
returned dishonored and Hutchinson's
attention being called to it. he
said it was mistake for the First National
of Helena, and redeemed the check. A
third check on the Second National of st.
Paul was for 500, and was Dashed by Fred
Wey, of the McDermott hotel, but wal
returned dishonored. Whenever his atten-
tion was called to these matters Hutchinson
at once redeemed his checks. Yesterday he
passed another check on the st. Paul banl
for $65. Complaint was made and war.
rant issued for his arrest. His friends got
wind of it, hid him and put him on board
the 2:15 Northern Pacific train this morn
ing. bound for the west. His friends have
also redeemed all of at least a half dozeE
bogus checks. Apparently hutchinson has o
mania for forging checks. Hestayed about
town constantly, and made no attempts te
get away until his friends insisted.

lated She laid the case before a relative
named Ross. recently OF Minneapolis. and
he went to London to investigate tho mat
ter. He returned an encouraging letter. but
since then nothing has been heard from him
and II is not known where he is. Then she

nephew, VIM. T. Coleman. wealthy can
ming manufacturer of San Francisco. Mean.

daughter, Mrs. Charles Ragsdale. She WAS
taken sick and accommodations not being

UnfrIendly Feeling Caused by Buugling
Diplomacy of EGan and Harrison.
SANTIAGO, Oct. 1.-THE anti-American
feeling, which is very pronounced, reached
q climax last evening in the streets OF VAL
paraiso. A number OF sailors of the q. 3.
s. Baltimore were walking along the street
when they were confronted by some sailors
of Chilian an-of-war. Some words
passed when fierce fight followed. Knives
and pistols were freely used during the
squabble. When the combatants were sep
nrated by the police ana bystanders it was
found thatbn of the Baltimore's sailors
were killed and five others seriously
wounded. Several Chilian sailors we're also
badly hurt. This was the first time the
Baltimore sailors had been ashore for q
month. The indendente of the CITY had
assured Capt. Schley that his sailors would
be perfectly safe on Chilian soil. Feeling
to-day between Americans and Chilians is
very strong. Several additional fights oo-
Cured to-day among sailors, but not so
serious as yesterday. The dead sailor of
the Baltimore will be buried tomorrow.
An armed force will be landed from the
Baltimore to furnish the military guard OF
honor. Trouble is feared. a. it will be
Sunday and election day.
