MI. 0. K. Lapham explained the neces-
sity of the building of the road. 1t was
not only necessary for the prosperity of
Staunton, but for the benefit of the great
coal consuming population of the country.
for it would give competition in the mat
ter of coal. This road was to enter the
Davis coal fields OF West Virginia and
thereby give competition with the New
River coal fields. The Chesa oeake, Shen-
dun & Western Ry. gave no relief in the
way of competition, for it runs to the same
great body of coal now pierced by the g. &
o. in the centre and the N orfolk & Western
at the Southern end. 1t would not do to
have to defend on Ole great coal field for a
supply. The Davis coal fields when reach
ed would give that competition. The
Shendun route cannot be of any benefit t6
Staunton. and it cannot he permitted to
monopolize North River Gap. the only pass
through which a railway can be built to LET
the coal from other fields in West Virginia
through.
Mr.. Gordon.-Do they propose to take
the route MI. Vincent surveyed.
MI. Lapham.-I infer so from CONVEX.
sation with Maj. Hotchkiss. This route
having already been surveyed by order of
the Chamber Of Commerce and at it's ex.
expense. this body is expected to express al
opinion on the subject. We have no antag.
oism to their bill except in as far as it will
injure us. We will not object If we have
the clause inserted in their bill giving us
the right to use their tracks in N orth River
Gap-a privilege which is entirely pronel
if they monopolize the pass. We want it
fixed by this legislature so we won't have
TO wait two years fol- another to meet.

Three appenls were filed in tho supreme
court yesterday. Henry 7. Berg, who was
employed by the Boston and Montana
Mining company. sued that corporation at
Great Falls for $4,000 damages for alleged
permanent injuries. He was at work with
Il number of other men blasting rock. One
of the blasts was fourteen feet below the
surface. After the fuse was lit all hands
went to n slanty at a safe distance away.
In about ten minutes the foreman directed
the men to return to the place where the
blast was. saying it was dead" Berg was
among the first to reach the hole. AS he
did 80 the charge went of. He escaped
with a broken leg and ankle and several
bruises. On tho trial at Great Falls he
claimed that he was permanently lsRbled

Who sees any necessity of being alarmed
about Helena? 1t seemed to ua the streets
never looked quite so thronged. nor the
merchants quite so busy, as yesterday. No,
there's nothing the matter with Helena.
No better proof than the positive showing,
by many merchants, of large increases i'll
their business. February is generally con-
sidsred by many as an off month. Yet, as
an instance of ono concern, the New York
Dry Goods Store, their showing for this
month is within q fraction as large as that
of September. Allowing for the popularity
of tho New York Store. as being Il partial
cause OF its extreme advance in business,
there are other Instances, in various
branches, that make an equally good show
ing. We only quote the New York Store rs
an evidence. it being the advance guard of
everything that is considered new and styl-
ish.
No concern, and perhaps no business
house in the northwest, . with it
to-day rs far us debonnic and elegance is
concerned. Its great stock for the spring
trades Will soon be complete, when novel;
ties in trimmings, novelties in dress goods.
novelties in silks, will be shown in such
boundleSs profuslon, that the ro,ined and
observed i'll elegance of dress, who await
the advent of its fashionable productions,
will not be disappointed. There are to-day
many ladies in Helena, and in fact all
Montana, h have so accustomed them
selves to purchase all their best material
there, that the mere matter of waiting is
but a secondary consideration. The firm
assures the Indies that their styles for the
spring will far surpasa any OF their previous
efforts.

DISTRICT COURT.

The Montana Milling Company Suing the
Sheriff.
Sheriff Jefferis and the Montana Milling
company nave submitted an agreed case to
Judge Hunt concerning its rights in an at
tachment proceeding. The compan
claims that the sheriff is liable to
it for the amount of its Judgment
against Kuphal & Schumacher 10y reason
of his negligence in not levying under it's
writ Of attachment on the credits Of Kup-
hal & Schumacher. Sheriff Jeffriss says
that he il not liable for the reason that he
was under no obligation to the company to
levy upon the credits under the writ. not
having received any written precipae nor
information in writing from the plaintiffs
or its attorneys.
Wallace d Ihornburgh commenced suit
yesterday against M. A. Meyendorf, the
Electric Cigar company, Harrison, Earring
ton & Co., Z. w. Knight, cashier, Hart,
Murphy O. Whalsy, Bach, Cory d Co. and
Spragne, Warner d Co. The suit is
brought to recover on forty-six promissory
notes alleged to have been given by Meyen-
dorff to Wallace d. Thornburgh for $4,-
64O.42 and secured BY mortgage on three
lots fronting on jerome pnrk. in Lenox ad-
dition. The plaintiffs ask Judgment for
the amount and $3.50 attorneys fees and
tina the other defendants be foreclosed
from asserting any rights in the mortgaged
property.

Withdrew the Motion.

Ihe case of Max Kahn, assignee of Green
hood, Bohn u Co., against Sheriff Jetferis
and the Montana National bank was set for
hearing yesterday on q motion made by
Kahn's attorneys to dismiss the attachment
proceedings brought by the bank. Elk
Chief Justice Mcconnell and Ex-Governor
Carpenter who appear for the bank were in
court with their authorities prepared to
argue all the law points involved in the
motion. At this time Ex-Associate Justice
II. G. Bach, Cullen, Sanders q Shelton, and
Walsh & Newman the attorneys for Kahn
appeared and withdrew their motion to
dismiss the attachment proceedings. This
move left the other side nothing to argue
about and the case was left in about the
same position as before. just what is in
volved in this maneuver only the lawyers
themselves know. It is probable, however,
that the case will soon be heard on its
merits. "
