Hunted by Phantoms.

Billings Gazette: One day last week a
dressed and provided with plenty of money
arrived in town from Lavina. He depos-
tied 50, 300 in the Yellowstone National
Bank, leaving address of his mother and
talking in a manner leading the cashier TO
think he was a little off. To Sheriff Ram
sey the young man applied for protection,
giving his name as Samuel b. Ebert and
explaining that he had been working some
time for Charley Bair and other ranchmen
OF the Musselshell country and that they
were now banded together to kill him. At
first the sheriff made light of Ebert's hal
lucination but finally consented to take
care OF him for a time. For a day ar two
Ebert seemed more at ease but insane
symptoms developed until on Monday he
escaped from the custody Of the %iailer, but
was Gained down and persuaded to ac-
company County Attorney Herford and
Under Sheriff Ramsey to the Jail for safe
keeping, and it was then decided to COM
municate with his people. His mother.
Mrs. Harriet Ebert, of Baltimore, Mary
land. responded to a telegram, requesting
that Samuel b. Ebert and his money be
sent to her in care OF soIle trustworthy
person. The county attorney will apply to
the court for the appointment OF a guard
ian, who, with Ebert and his funds will,
when authorized, depart for Baltimore.
From persons living in the neiehborhood
of Lavina it is learned Ebert last worked
for c. NJ. Bair and that only when his ac-
tions began to be peculiar and alarmed
Mrs. Bair had he been discharged. He was
for a few days lettering about at Lavina
and there is a rumor that the scurvy Joke
OF working a "Red Man" degree upon him
was there concocted and carried out. Eb.
ert is undoubtedly insane and the symp.
toms may develop violence.

THE MUD GEYsER" AGAIN.
Hilger & Nebinger Dispose of their Interest
in the Montana Democrat to a Stock
Company.

On Saturday last Messrs. Hilger & Neb-
niger transferred their interest in the Mon.
tana Democrat to a stock company after
conducting the paper for a period Of three
months. The company, as now formed, is
comprised of the following stockholders,
who are also trustees; HI. p. Brooks, W.D.
Deaton, John p. Barnes, j. o. Gilkerson,
W.T.. Swope, David Hilger and I. j. Johns.
By virtue of having taken 5000 worth OF
stock T. j. Johns was made editor OF the
paper for a period of three months. His
retention beyond that period is conditional.
We understand he is under an iron-clad
pledge ~ quit hia- occupation 90 a ''tin-
horn gambler and to conduct a paper free
from blackguardism and matchmaking or
forfeit his stock. The new management
took possession Monday.
As nearly all OF the stockholders are gen.
tlemen of good standing in the community
it would be natural to suppose that they
will nave the organ which they control de-
Gently conducted, but it will be just as diff
ficult as to get clear water out of a sewer.
The public will hold the stockholders re.
sponsible for the tone of the paper.

constituents with a clear conscience and
his honor unsullied. In a conversation
with him he gave us some formati re-
garding the senatorial struggle and the
manner it WAS waged by the Clark and DAILY
factions. Every scheme imaginable was
devised to get votes and the manner in
which the strikers" went about it to
.'work' member OF the legislature vas
really interesting. Mr.. Goodell was APP
preached and given to understand that he
could make more money in a lew minutes
than in five years at horse raising. But
the emisary WAS cut short in his mission
by IA refusal OF Mr.. Goodell to entertain his
proposition Tor "a moment. Mr.Goodell said
he " as glad when the session closed He has
all the legislative experience he wants;
there is nothing in it but honor and mighty
little of that. MIR. Goodell was i'll in Helena
after the session and only reached his
home at Philbrook two weeks ago.
George NJ. Hatch and Charles 7. Busha,
OF Big Timber, visited Lewistown last week.
Ha ving business at Okla in connection with
the telephone line, in which thev are both
interested, they extended their visit to
Lewistown to talk over matters with our
business men. One of the subjects dis
cussed was that OF forwarding and freight
ing from Big Timber to Lewistown and
j Judith Basin points. By way OF encour-
agement the gentlemen stated that a new
bridge had been erected over the Sweet
Grass river and another vas being built
over the Musselshell. 1t is claimed that

with "a load from two to three days quicker
than from Billings, and have better roads,
feed and water. As to forwarding Big
Timber will not be surpassed by any other
point in the matter OF accommodation and
promptness. The question of a mail route
connecting Lewistown with that point was
discussed. Some effort was made in that
direction last summer, but very little &C.
complished. There is no question but
Lewistown needs better service from the
Northern Pacific than it has at present.
The great bulk OF our important mail and
nine-tenths of our express now comes over
the Billings line, or which there is an in
ferior tri-weekly service. An effort should
he made here to either change or improve
the service from Billings. Messrs. Hatch
and Busha feel quite sure that a daily line
will be run between Okla and Big Timber
during the summer. and if SO Lewistown
would be lin it," We were informed by
Mr.. Hatch that the telephone line had done
more business than it's projectors antiei-
pated and that although the company was
four or five hundred dollars in debt at the
completion of the line he thought a divi-
lend of about twelve per cent would be
made at the annual meeting of the COM
pany in June. 1t is possible the line may
be extended to Maiden in which case no
dividend would be made.

Washington, May 26.-Secretary Her
bert has given his approval to the find
ings and recommendations made by
Captain Mathews, as the result of his
inspection of Mare Island, Cal, navy
yard. The secretary is gratiaed at the
nature of the report, as 1t enables him
to carry out a plan which he cherished
as in tho line of economy, and calcu-
lated to build up important naval in
terests on the Pacific coast. Captain
Mathews found the plant and equip
ment of the yard of the first quality,
and capable of doing repair work of a
high order, while the labor Is thorough
ly skilled. Secretary Herbert announc-
es that hereafter he will order all re-
pair work, not only for the Pacific sta
ton, but also for vessels Of the Ash
attic station, to be done at Mare Island
navy yard. Heretofore 1t has been the
practice of the department to order
Asiatic vessels to proceed to the At
lantic coast for repairs. Captain Math-
ews was able by the directions of the
secretary, to closely inspect the coast
defense vessel, Monterey, in view of
the reports that her boilers were ru-
ined on her trial trip. He found that
there was no basis for the reports, and
the vessel is in splendid condition.

IRELAND's DAY.


Chicago, May 26-Another worlds
fair day was ushered in with cold, raw
weather, diminishing the attendance In
comparison with what it would have
been with clear skies and a comforta-

at the fair today was the dedication of

civic ceremonies.
Chicago, May 26.-This afternoon
United States District Attorney GIL

prepare a bill for an injunction in time
to prevent the opening Of the worlds

FOSTER FAILS.
The Ex-Secretary of the Treasury
Makes an Assignment.


The Ex-Secretary of the Treasury
Makes an Assignment.
Fosteria, Ohio May 26.-Ex- Secretary
of the Treasury Charles Foster has
failed and made an assignment. In
1879, when elected governor of Ohio for
the first time, Foster was reputed to
be worth a million dollars. During the
next four years he lost heavily in Lake
Superior copper mines, in natural gas
and in street railway speculations. At
Findlay, during its temporary boom,
he invested largely. When the bubble
burst he, with many others, was caught
for thousands of dollars. He also lost
by endorsing notes for business and
political friends. Since then he attempt.
ed to recoup his LOSSES, but only be-
came more deeply involved. The crash
was temporarily averted by his APP.
pointment as secretary of the treasury.
1t is thought he will not be able to
more than pay his debts. According to
the latest issue Of the Bankers Alma
mac, the Foster Banking company has
a capital of $4,000; surplus. $1,000; undi-
vided profits, $4,000.
Business is paralyzed and the result
of the failure will be far reaching,
probably involving majority Of the
leading industries and business houses
Of the city. Foster & Co. were put down
as having capital Of 100000 to $1,000
900, but their credit was only rated by
the agency as second class.
Governor Foster has issued a state
ment saying his endorsements for a

under the auspices Of their exellencies
the ministers of Spain, Mexico, Peru,
and Brazil Rich and magnificent as
have been the decorations Of Madison
Square Garden in times past, 1t is
probable those of tonight were never
equaled, certainly never before in this
country have they been surpassed. All
the artistic skill Of the florist was called
into play to present a scene that will
never be forgotten.

MAKING RAIN IN KANSAS.

Wichita, Kan, May 26.-By a pre-
concerted arrangement between the
mayors of the towns of wellington,
Winfield. Arkansas City, South Haven,
Caldwell, Hutchinson and Newton, a
simultaneous bombardment of the
heavens began at noon yesterday. Can
non and every explosive within reach
were brought into requisition, and hum
dreds of men and boys with guns
blazed away at the skies till p. M,
when the clouds opened their ieser-
voirs and drenched the earth, the rain
continuing for four hours and wonder
fully improving the crop prospects.

PATROL FLEET GOING NORTH.

Vallejo, Cal, May 26.--Advices re-

Port Townsend report the Bering Sea
patrol fleet ready for the summer
cruise north, having coaped and provis-
ioned there. Many desertions among
the crews are reported. The Ranger is
said to be short handed, while the Mo-
hican has lost over seventy men. The
Albatross will arrive at Port Townsend
tonight with draft Of men for the
Mohican. and as soon as they are de-
liyered. the feet will proceed north.

window glass company and brass

is only just to myself to say that two
things caused my downfall. One was

devotion to politics, the other an over
Jealous desire to build up Fosteria.
do not know that at my time of life l
ought to indulge in the hope Of being
able to repair my fortunes and pay my
debts, but that shall try will be the
one end for which I shall live" The
governor Graves the generous judg-
ment Of the public and estimates the
liabilities Of the various concerns in
volved at 100000, the assets of which,
on paper, more than cover the liabili-
ties.
Since Foster left the treasury de-
partment he paid off $150,OOO Of his OBJ
legations here, and, but for a difficulty
in making loans, would have been able
to carry on his various enterprises.
The loss to business men who were
depositors in the bank is one of the
deplorable features in the crash. 1t
is confidently believed that some of
them will suffer to an extent that will
cause them to go under.
A run was made on the Mechanics
Savings bank this morning as soon as
it's doors opened, but the demands were
promptly met. The assignment of Da-
Wis & Foster. wholesale grocers, will
probably prove to be the direct cause
Of the failure Of number of grocery
concerns in the state. The loss to
Fostena is great, but regret on this ac-
count in no way lessons the sympathy
expressed for the ex,secretary. 1t is
conceded his generosity and public
spirit have been the indirect cause OF
his financial downfall, as he was ever
ready to lend q, helping hand.
