WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-two weeks age
1t was the understanding among the arbi
traitors and counsel in the Behring sea case
that they would sail for Paris, where the
sessions of the board of arbtrators are tc
be held some time next month Last week
a London telegram stated that the Behr.
ing sea arbitrators would not meet until
February. This statement was confirmed
by the state department here. butno reason
was given for the delay. An explanation,
however, appears in the story that much
OF the data used in preparing the case OF
the United States before the arhitratOrs,
furnished by Ivan Petrof, was false When
the preparation Of the case was begun by
the state department officials the name OF
petrof rs a writer on the resources of
Alaska appeared more frequently than any
other, and inquiry was made for him. lie
was found to be a special agent Of the cen
sus bureau.
The OmciaIs Were Astounded.

sus Of Alaska for the United States gov.

ration of the latter's history of the terri
tory Mr. petroif was thereupon sum

pilation of certain facts relating to the
sealing industry In the study Of his data
one of the governments attorneys discov.
cred an error, which led TO further investi.
cation, the result being TO show, IL is said,
that nearly the entire information fur
nished by petrof had been falsihed, and In
manner which left no doubt of a willfui
intent TO deceive.
This discovery astonished the officials
The information had already been incor.
porated In the case Of this government as
sent 70 London, and formed part of the
arch upon which the United States claim
rested, although it was not the keyston,
by any manner OF means. The British
government was at once notified that tn,
United States had been led into errors OF

a POST.

\ bill having been introduced in con
mental post at Helena the people of Mis-
soula will. through petitions. ask hat in
the establishment of any large military
post in Montana the advantages of loca-
ton enjoyed by Mlssoula be considered.
While both Helena and Missoula are
directing the attention of congress to
their res ective localities III connection
with this matter 1t may be as well for
Great Falls to enter the field and present
the superior advantages she possesses
for the establishment of a military post.
a comparison with either of the other
points will result to her advantage.
1t must be assumed that reglmental
posts are not established as ornaments
to u town or city, but hat they are To-
Gated where they can best serve the pur-
poses of their existence. This being the
case Il glance at the map of the state will
show that Great Falls is the proper
place to locate such a post in Montana.
Its position commands our northern
boundary line. 1t is d railroad center
from which rapid transit may be made
TO any portion of the state, and from
which movements of troops may be read
lily directed. 1t is the center of a large
grazing and agricultural country from
which post supplies may be abundantly
and cheaply obtained. 1t has at its
doors all the building material required.
1t possesses an abundance Of pure.
wholesome water and the best and
healthiest climate in the state. If any
thing more is wanted to make Great
Falls the proper location for a regimental
post it may be found here, for no point
in the west is so thoroughly equipped to
meet every demand that may be made
upon it as this city, Great Falls should
not be overlooked by the government in
it's selection of a place for a regimental
post in Montana.

An amusing feature in the investiga-

union cease its boycott against the Chi
nese. The complaint vas made by one
Of the leading Cinnamon of the place
who clinched his appeal for redress
with the statement that unless the boy
colt ceased all the Cinnamon would be
compelled to leave Butte. As this is
just what every good citizen Of that Chi
nese cursed place wish the news thus
volunteered was encouraging and pleas
ing. The governors reply was to the
point. He informed the complaining
heather that 1t was one of the inaliena-
BILE rights of an American citizen to
trade where and with whom he pleased
and that sometimes white men as well
as Cinnamon were %boycotted. 1t begins
to look as though the union was getting
in its work against this very undesirable
class in excellent shape. Hasten the day
when the great silver camp will he free
