The Grow Com missiOners.

The commissioners appointed to treat
with the Grow Indians for the cession of
that portion of the reserve lying west of
the water shed between Pryor creek and
Clark's Fork, met in this city Monday
to formulate their report and forward it
to the secretary OF the interior. The
commission consists of Hon. e. ID. Weed
Of Helena. Major F. ID Pease of Living
ston and Fred H. Foster of Billings. w.
II. Schmitt of Helena is secretary of the
commission. The sessions of the COM
mission we're held in the court room un-
til Tuesday evening when their labors
were concluded and the report forward
ed to the interior department. 1t is a
voluminous document, but aside from
the provisions OF the treaty already made
known contains little Of interest to the
public. The commissioners believe that
no delay should now be experienced in
opening up this portion of the reserve to
settlement, Secretary Noble having
pledged his personal attention to the
matter upon his return to Washington,
which will be some time during the
coming week. The opinion is advanced
that under favorable circumstances the
presidents proclamation throwing open
this portion of the reserve will be issued
not later than October 18th. Wednes-
day morning Messrs. Weed and Smith
returned to Helena, while Major Pease
and Mr.. Foster remained until Tuesday
evening to conclude matters pertaining
to the commission outside of the report
submitted to the interior department.
The commission was rendered ban
quet at Whites club rooms Monday
evening by number Of the business
men of the city.

Homicide mt HDrr,

At the upper works of the Park Coal
and Coke company at Horr, Saturday
night, Charles Northrup fatally shot
Daniel Durgan. Northrup was foreman
of the company's timber camp and until
few days prior 10 the shooting Durgan
had been employed by the company as
timberman, from which position he was
for some reason discharged by Northrup.
This is alleged to have caused ill feeling
between the two men which eliminated
in the fatal encounter Saturday night.
1t is stated that Durgan,Who when under
the influence of liquor is inclined to be
quarrelsome, went to the timber camp
with the avowed purpose of whipping
or, as he termed it, "doing up North
rup. When the men met Durgan stated
the object of his visit and started for
Northrup who. ordering him to not pro-
ceed farther, drew a revolver and began
firing. The first shot which passed over
Durgan's head was quickly followed by
two more. the first of which struck the
waistband of Durgan's pants and en-
bedded itself in the cloth. Durgan then
turned to retreat when the other shot
struck him in the back. penetrating and
shattering the spinal column. The
wounded man fell and was taken to the
bunk house when DIR. Osmun was sum-
moned and everything that surgical skill
could suggest was done for his relief.
He fingered until Wednesday morning.
The funeral took place Wednesday after
noon and the body was inferred in the
burial ground at Horr, whittier it was
followed by a large number OF the
friends of the deceased.
After the shooting Northrup walked
from the timber camp to Horr. where
he gave himself up to Constable Erret.
He was held for a preliminary examina-
ton before Justice Reese who deferred
action pending the result of Durgan's
injury. The examination did not there
fore take place until Wednesday when
after the evidence of one or two witness
es mad been introduced, Northrup de-
cided to waive examination and was ac-
cordingly held without bail to await ac-
ton of the grand jury at the next term
OF district court. He was brought to
Livingston Wednesday night by Con-
stable Erret and lodged in the county
Jail.

December Price was arrested for the
murder of his uncle P. j. Cunningham,
in the streets of Butte. The exact motive
was always q mystery. During the
trial Saturday, in his defense, which
was very weak. Price CLAIMED that Gu,
ningham had cheated him in ID number
of business transactions, and also that
he had been the cause of his wife's un-
faithfulness. 1t was developed, however,
that Mr.. and Mrs. Price had never been
legally married. A document was pro-
duced, signed by each, the man and the
as husband and wife, but there were no
witnesses to this document. Mrs. Price
herself was not put on the stand. Wit
nesses for the prosecution testified that
| Cunningham had seemed as familiar

ami that Price had apparently not OBJ
| jected The trial was concluded Satur-
day afternoon. and at II o'clock the jury
rendered ii verdict of murder in the sec
ond degree, with IA recommendation for
mercy.
At 6 o'clock Sunday morning Price
was found in his cell in an unconscious
condition. He had taken a big dose of
poison. All possible efforts were used
to revive him, but without gaining con
sciousness he died at 10:30 o'clock. He
left letter to the sheriff. but it ex-
planned nothing.

capped from jail last February with Crow

found several weeks afterward secreted

At the time of his recapture there were
some who believed that Price knew the
murderer of the late w. j. Penrose and
had been assisted to escape for fear he
would dlvulge some secrets. In fact the
officers offered Inducements to Price to
tell what he might know about the Pen
rose mystery, and about those " no assis-
