TERRIBLE ARRANGEMENT.

Premier Davies Creates Scene in Com
mons.
OTTAWA, Ont, Feb. 24.-Premier Da-
vies, of Prince Edwards Island, created
a scene in commons last night by terri
bic arraignment OF the government for
Justification of the record OF the delegates'
trip to Washington on reciprocity.
Minister Foster reported that the United
States would only grant treaty of IN
limited scope, with a uniform tariff made
at Washington discriminating against
Great Britain
Davies gave the lie direct to Foster by
reading Biaine's report to Congress on
government would only accede to the
products, something which every Cana
dian knew the United States would never
accede to. a list of manufactures, said
Davies, was also included in the treaty
which the United States would grant,
and as to uniform tariff, it
was a pure fabrication. Shaking
his hand in the face OF the finance minis
ter, Davies, declared that while he Eos
teri kept back the records OF the proceed
lngs from parliament, he was justified in
calling him faisiher for the pure pur-
pose of deceiving the people so that he
and his colleagues might retain their Sit
uations.
The report of Blaine proved that the
government was guilty of deceit, false
hood and political triekery OF the worst
kind. He defied Foster to contradict, and
the minister did not.

Lively Scenes IN the Lower House
on Yesterday.
THE CONTEST IN MONTANA.
A Missing Member of the House Found
at Home.
Two Populists Abandon Dixon and Vote
for Popuiist NIitche1l-other Switches
We're Made IN the Senatorial
Vote, but No Result.

BOISE, Ida. Feb. 24.-ESpecial.l There
were two lively scenes in the house to-
day. One occurred when Speaker Miller
decided that Mills was a bigoted, con-
tumacious Republican member from
Bingham county. While the bill. pro-
viding that all public printing and bind
ing shall be done in the state, was up for
concurrence in the senate amendments,
Mills rushed up to the speakers desk
and, mounting the rostrum. addressed
the house, denouncing the chief e1ecu-
tive in most abusive and insulting man
ner. The speaker maintained his dignity
and did not retort. After lengthy
scene of confusion quiet was restored.
Another scene was caused when Work.
mans bill making seduction a crime came
up. Lawson, of Custer, referred to the au-
thor of the measure, who is bachelor, as
a eunuch who was unable to father any
thing but bill. Blows were narrowly
averted. Both bills over which the
trouble occurred were favorably acted
upon and the former now goes to the
governor for approval. The House COM
mittee OF the whole recommended the
passage OF the Ceur d. Alene city school
of mines bill.
In the senate the county boundaries
committee reported adversely on the
Kootenai county division bill. The bill
amending the election law by taking
from the governor the prerogatiye of ap-
pointing officers of the newly created
counties passed by an almost unanimous
vote. Micham of Iatah alone voting
against it.
The house will kill the measure, the
Republicans OF that body, who are in
majority, deeming it a slap in Governor
McConnell's face. The Underwood bill
for the maintenance of the militia was
killed.
The governor today appointed Samuel
Gundaker of Pocatello, state boiler in
spector. He is one of the best all round
mechanics and one of the most popular
men in the state At present he is deputy
United States marshal.

THE HERALD REACHES MORE L

ings on the plains and in the rockies.
They supposed he was at Denver six
years ago. About SIX months ago Wesley
Rippey got a letter from a safe deposit
bank in San Francisco asking reference
because he had applied there to make a
deposit of valuables in the banks safety
deposit vaults.
The only clew that the reporters had
was the similar sound of the names Wes
ley @. and William G. Rippey. Both live
in distant suburbs which could only be
reached by carriages over dark and bad
roads. The lateness of the hour and the
necessary hurry of the interviews caused
some discrepancies in the reports. They
are in accord, however, on the main
points, though thare may be some dis
agreements.
The family say he was never suspected
of mental arrangement but had a mania
for rowing which tore him away from
family ties Neither was he disagree
able in his conduct when at home with
his family. Nothing they ever saw of
him when with him prepared them to
believe that he would attempt the murder
of any one. They now believe he must
have lost his reason. His name is Yves
les @. RinneN.

A Decided Improvement Leads to the

WASHINGTON. Feb. 24.-The treasury
situation shows decided improvement

export of gold at New York for tomorrow
will reach only $500, 600, while here it was
expected that 81 ,OOO, 900 would be required

This, taken in connection with the fact
that in the face of gold agitation the gov
