Against Mantle.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-The senate
this afternoon by vote of 3j to 30 de-
cided against seating Lee Mantle, the
appointed senator from Montana. The
same action applies to the other ap.
pointees from Washing aud Wyoming
Senator Voorhees, addressed the senate
yesterday morning at length on behalf ot
his motion repeating the purchase clause
OF the Sherman act. He explained the
action OF the president in converting the
extra session, owing to lost confiden ce in
the financial world. This loss of con-
fidencc, he said, was not IN the credit of
the government, which was better today
than that of any other on the globe. He
praised the administration for its refus al
to crafty the demand of capitalists for
the issue of 5300,OOO,0O0 more in bonds.

HOUSE DISCUSSIONS.
proceedings FOR the Most Part Uncventful
Pro and Con on the Financial
Ounslinu.

WAsHINGToN, Aug. 23.-The financial
discussion in the house yesterday for the
most part was rather monotonous
Hopkins of Illinois favored uncondition-
al repeal, stating that although he came
from an agricultural district he would
oppose every free coinage amendment to
be proposed by Bland and his friends
The surprise of the day was the speech
by Hepburn. He disagreed with his
party colleagues and emphatically de-
clared against the repeal of the Sher-
man law. The law, he continued, was
beneficial in its effects and should not
be repealed.
Baickner of Wisconsin spoke in favor
of the repeal ef the purchasing clause eff
the Sherman law. Lane of Illinois
spoke in favor of free coinage, New
lands of Nevada voiced the demand of
his region and vigorously advocrted the
free coinage of silver. Bynum advocat
ed the Wilson Bill and highly eulogized
the action of Secretary Carlisle for his
refusal to issue bonds. The United
States could not open its mints to free
coinage at any ratio with the minis of
all other civilized nations closed against
it. Jones of Virginia opposed the un-
conditional repeal vi the purchasing
clause ana favored free coinage. Recess
until 8 p. NJ.
At the evening session of the house
Ellis (dem) of Kentucky spoke in favor
of free coinage. King dem, of Mary
land and Deforrest tdem.) of Connect-
cut spoke vigorously for the repeal of
the purchasing clause of the Sherman
act. The latter asserted that the cry for
relief came not so much from the ri.h
and powerful as from the humble poor:
from the worthy and industrious masses.
Arnold (dem.) of Missouri denied there
was any condition in the country to JUS
tify the demonetization of silver which
would follow the repeal of the Sherman
law Williams (dem.) of Mississippi
spoke in favor of the free coinage of sill
yer. In the name of the farmers and
laborers he protested against the mi
nority of the democratic party joining
the bulk of the republicans in repeating
the Sherman law.
Tracey (dem. of New York vehement
y asserted that when the vote came
majority of the democrats would be
found voting for the unconditional re-
peal of the purchasing clause.
Williams replied that would never be
in this world. lie predicted that after
the next election the monometallst dem
ocrats would find themselves with the |
protection democrats either at home or
on the republican side. At the conclu-
sion of Williams speech the house adj

The White Metal.

WAsHINGoN, Aug. 2l.-A nalf month
of the special session of congress has
passed and the third week of the tinan-
cal contest will open with both parties
confident, but with many significant
changes in the situation. Republican
senators from the silver states have re-
iterated with greater emphasis their
loyalty to the silver cause. while Voor-
hees. with free coinage record for
twenty years, has surprised his former
friends by declaring for the repeal of
the Sherman act Thus the disappoint-
ment which the repeal men experienced
when Vest, Of Missouri, so emphatically
declared for free coinage and against
unconditional repeal have been more
than offset by the accession to their
ranks of Voorhees,. But the free coin
age men of the senate are still resolute
and determined, and no one familiar
with the situation can hope for final
settlement OF the question in the senate
without an almost endless discussion ex-
tending through many weeks, and votes
upon innumerable propositions to be
submitted by the silver men in case of
defeat Of the leading proposition. 1t is
not improbable that the coming week
may see the bill to permit the national
banks to increase their issue of bank
notes forced to a vote in the senate, and
the indications are it will receive ma
iority vote. Silver men just now are
Gov. Osborne. of Wyoming
for his delay in appointing a successor
to Senator Beckwith. As any man ap-
pointed from Wyoming would, they be-
ieve, be silver senator, they hold that |
the governor is showing neglect of free
coinage interests by nat promptly APP
pointing a senator.

MAI. ROMAN DEAD.
The United States Indian Agent at
the Flathead Reservation Died
Sunday Night.
He Was Montana Pioneer and Wit
messed Many Changes in This
Wonderful State.

ARLEE, Aug. 2l.-A special to the Hell
ena Independent says: "ATaJ Peter Ro-
nan, United States Indian agent at the
Flathead reservation, died at his home
Sunday evening after long Illness. The
major had been the agent at the Flat
head ludian reservation for the last six
teen years. He was one of the pioneers
of Montana, having come to this state in
1863 lie had gone to Colorado as boy
and after living there several years went
east to Leavenworth. Kan. He was
there when the Florence excitement
broke out and with hundreds of others
got the gold fever On the way he fell
in with a number of old Colorado men.
and instead of going to Florence turned
of to the camp at Bannock, which was
the first capital OF Montana. When Al
der gulch was discovered be was one of
the first stampeders. and saw the rise
and fall of Virginia City. Shortly after
ward he started the Montana Democrat
at Virginia Cry with }. p. Bruce as his
partner. 1t was the second newspaper
in the territory, the Post being the first.
When last Chance gulch was discovered
he started for Helena and there started
another paper. the Rocky Mountain Ga
zette, with f. l.. Wilkinson and Martin
Maginnis. The building in which it was
printed burned in 1863, and another
that was erected burned two years later,
and the major went out of journalism
and back to prospecting and mining
again and had pretty good luck at
Blackfoot City, in the famous Ophir
gulch. He was next deputy sheriff in Hel.
ena. When the Indian agent at the
Flathead reservation was suspended and
ordered to Washington. Carl Schurz,
who was at that time secretary Of the
interior, sent Roman orders to 90 there
and take charge of the government
property. Soon after that President
Hayes sent his name to the senate for
the agency and he was confirmed and
has held the Office ever since.
When Major Roman first took charge
of the reservation all the Indians were
hunters, game was very plentiful and all
used to cross the Rockies in summer

falo hunting. \ great change has
taken place since then. All OF them are
good farmers. They raise an enormous
crop of grain, so large that the grist rnill
is kept running night and day. Not
long ago the Bitter Flatheads removed
to the reservation from their lands in
the Bitter Root valley. They had
patents from the government for all
hnI Ian l- 4
sell their farms and move to the
reservation. Over llO families were
moved IN this way and were given lands
in severalty. The Flathead reservation
covers over 1,3O0,0O0 and is nearly all
magnificent agricultural country. There
are about 1000 Indians on it now. The
major had many troubles to settle dur
ing his agency, but to the credit of the
Indians, be it said. they We're mostly
brought on by white squatters on In

An Alleged Cascade Thief Gets on Very

Jake Halverson of Cascade was ar
raigned before Judge Fitzgerald yester-
day morning to answer to the charge of
stealing some tools belonging to Eli
Shepherd. blacksmith of Cascade. 1t
appears that he brought the tools here
and sold them for S. and then Shepherd
followed him to Great Falls and had
him arrested. When the warrant was
issued the complaining witness swore
the property in question was worth $50.
On investigation the county attorney
learned that the tools were not worth
much more than the amount Halverson
received for them and that it would cost
the county over $50 to bring witnesses
here from Cascade, go he moved for a
dismissal. The judge granted the same
after the plaintiff admitted that he was
not so anxious to appear against Halver-
son as to recover the tools.
