Banjo Clubs.

The concert given by the Yale Glee
and Banjo clubs at the Lyceum theater

highly appreciative audience. The

evening were the Whitney solo rendered
by Mr.. Solley, the vocal numbers bv
Mir. ATbuthnot. the latter being espe-
ciaIly fine. The instrumental and vocal
selection "Tutti Frutti." by the CON-

IT is UNCONSTITUTIONAL
THAT LAZY COMPELLING REDEMPTION.

The Case Against Receiver W. II.

Is Dismissed Upon Several

Ground5-An Interesting Point
of Law. aif
Judge Elliott, of the municipal court,
has declared unconstitutional the law
making it a miSdeiheanOr for railroad
companies 10 redeem the unused portion
of mileage tickets. The opinion was
rendered in the test case brought by A.
9. Pray against Receiver W. Ii. TrueS-,
dale, OF the Minneapolis & St. Louis
road. The hearing occurred yesterday
afternoon and the argument occupied
TWO hours. Acting Assistant County
Attorney A. H. Hall appeared for the
prose cution, and a. E. Clarke. counsel
for the st. Louis road, defended Mr..
TruesdaIe. Mr.. Pray was the only wit
ness, and lie testified that ne had pre-
scented the unused portion of a Min
neapolis e ST. Louis mileage ticket
to ticket agent of the road for re-
demption, and that the agent had re-
fused to make such redemption. The
defense admitted all the facts, and then
the argument began.
After hearing both sides at some
length, Judge Elliott dismissed the case
on three grounds:
First: That the statute in specifying
the parties liable for its violation named
1.-The owner of the railroad or the cor
poration managing it," Iu the case at
the bar. the defendant is the receiver.
who is an officer of the court, and
therefore could not be held liable.
Second: That the statute does not
create al offense of criminal charac-
ter.
Third: That the law is unconstitu-
tional. because it seeks TO regulate coll
tracts between certain parties.
Judge Elliott, in subsequently eX-
planning the grounds of demonstrations
ality, compared the case of an individ-
ual demanding redemption OF his
mileage ticket to that of a person who
should purchase bolt OF muslin at
store, take it home, use half of ii, then
return it and insist on getting half the
purchase money back.
The case cannot be appealed on the
constitutional ground. as the defend
ants dismissal rests primarily OH the
first round.

GOOD FOR SILVER.
If any Attempt is Made to Repeal
the Sherman Silver
Law
SILVERITES WILL FILIBUSTER.
Representative Pierce Thinks No
thing Can Be Done This
Session.

Representative Pierce of Tennes-
see, who with Representative Bland
led the fight for free silver legisla-
ton at the last session, has, according
to recent dispatch, announced the
intention of himself and his friends
"To give anti-free- silver men a dose
of their own medicine and filibuster
If necessary to prevent the repeal of
the Sherman act"
Mr.. Pierse was confident that there
would be nothing further accomp-
lished on the situation during this
congress, but gave it as his opinion
that the law would be repealed early
in the next session, in response to de-
mands of President Cleveland Mr..
Pierce said: "We will now wait on
the other side and block its moves.
The turn of anti-silver men has now
come and when they attempt any
thing we'll give them what they gave
us last session. l believe the bill
to repeal the Sherman law will be re-
ported by the banking and currency
committee. Yes, | have looked
into the matter, and believe there is
a majority of that. t.committee in favor
of the repeal of the law. But we do
not propose to let them accomplish
their purpose. We will agree to re-
peal the Sherman act and return to
the Bland bill if-the minimum coin
age per month be fixed at s4,00O,OOO
instead of S2,OO0,0OU, as it was in
that act"
"Would silver men be willing to
compromise on 50, 100000 month";"
"No, sir. don't think they would.
The Sherman act is working our way.
We have got the other side on the
hip. 1t is increasing circulation in
the country four and a half millions
a month, and that is what the banks
don't want. 1t is the increase of the
money of the country that is at the
bottom of the complaints of the banks.
| believe the next session will see
the Sherman law repealed.

NO COMPROMISE FOR BLAND.


81 want no compromise; ! am for
the free coinage of silver at the
present ratio first, last and all the
time" Representative Bland, the
veteran silver leader and chairman OF
the house committee on coinage, was
very emphatic when he delivered
himself Of these statements Monday
morning. 81 want no compromise
at all, but if | could do no better
would accept the old act, provided
that the maximum amount, $4,000
600 per month, mentioned in that
measure, was agreed to be coined. |
believe that the present law is the
best Legislation we have had in the
interest of silver, and of course ! do
not want it repealed" He also said
that free coinage bill stood better
chance of passing at this session than
next, as then it it would have to run
up against an administration opposed
to silver.

Belt Mountain Miner:
Another strike has been made in
the Tiger at a place where no one
had looked for any thing of the kind
The miners were at work cutting the
station from where the uprise will be
made and ran into an ore body. 1t
consists of vein two feet wide and
is of an entirely different lead. The
vein has not been followed far en-
ough to determine it's true extent.
The ore is not thought to be of as
high grade as the carbonate in
the other vein, but it is undoubtedly
rich enough for working. 1t is of a
pyritic character, much the same as
that in the Carter and May aud Ed
ma. The Tiger has since the first
strike last spring, and the continued
good showing made, been regarded
as the best piece of property in the
Belt mountains, and this last strike
wll make the grounds for that claim
greater. In the first vein there is
continuous ore body, varying from
two to six feet in width for dis
tance of nearly 300 feet of high
grade lead ore, carrying an average
Of fifty ounces of silver. That alone
is enough to stamp it as bonanza,
and this last strike makes it inquest
ionably the best piece of property in
any of the Belt mountain camps.
The Milwaukee men who own this
property are in luck.
1t is reported that a contract will
be let very soon to sink new shaft
on the Carter 300 feet; and men are
now here figuring on taking it. A
meeting of the company was held in
Great Falls short time ago, and it
was determined to sink new doub-
le compartment shaft just above the
present one. J. L. Arlington was
expected on Mondays train to let
the contract but for some reason did
not come. 1t is expected by those
here figuring on the contract-M.
O'Brien and others-that he will be
out on the next train.
Geo. Croft and August Hall have
just completed a contract of sinking
fifty feet on the Slaughter house
lode for Messrs Campbell, Atkinson
and Hanks. At the depth of fifty
feet remarkable fine showing was
made. The ore was struck at about
forty feet depth and at the depth of
fifty feet was about two feet wide.
1t consists of blue tale containing
boulders of galena and silver ore.
The claim is located just back of the
depot. 1t is thought probable that
the owners will continue work now
that they have struck fine showing.
The timber for the Moulton build
ings is now being hauled up to that
property and the work of erection,
or rather preparing for erection, has
begun. The lumber was purchased
from the Butte and Montana Com'l
company, of Great Falls, and some
of the timbers had to be brought
from Oregon, there being no timbers
of sufficient size produced in the
state.
Messrs Wilson and Northam ex-
pect to begin work on the Wyan-
dotte after New Years. They have
fifty feet further to go on the tunnel
before they get to where they ex-
pect to strike the lead. This prop
erty is regarded as very promising
one by all who have inspected it,
and the owners expect great things
for it.
