In our order"
NO U. r. TRAIN INTO BUTTE TO-DAY.
BUTTE, July 9.-The railroad situation
rs far as Butte 10 concerned remains just
as II was "a hours ago, and II is not likely
that there will bo any change for several
days. Tho Union Pacific officials have
given up the idea Of trying to run train
into Butte ut present, aud the train that
l was expected In from the south at I o clock
tomorrow afternoon will not arrive. The
train left Ogden all right ut Q O'Clock this
evening, but II will only run as far ~ Po.
catello. Tho soldiers will be dropped oil
there, and II II tho intention to open up
tho line from that point to Butte gradually.
Under this arrangement II will DO
several days, and probably . week,
before o train 10 run into Butte.
II was reported on the streets this after.
noon that bridges were being burned on
the Union Pacific south OF Silver Bow but
the report proved 10 be IN unfounded ru-
NOR, like many other silly stories that
were afloat during the day. Ono Of the
most foolish rumors, which 10 regularly
set on foot every morning by some rattle.
Drained idiot. 10 TO tho effect that the
Great Northern road will be tied up In .
few hours. II can bo authoritatively stated
that therc 10 not tho slightest danger OF
any immediate trouble on tho Great
Northern. There arc few trifling differ.
snces on that road, but tho mon have
every confidence that they will DO satis-
factorily adjusted NJ soon a. they arc
brought to the notice Of President Hill.
The Great Northern employees realise that
o strike on their part at this time would
completely paralyzo Montana and
they havo decided by q practically
unanimous vote Of every A. X. Y.
lodge along tho line that they will
not take up their troubles until after the
Northern Pacific and Union Pacific are
again running. This information comes
from perfectly trustworthy source and
may be regarded as official. People who
stop to listen to stories about strike on
the Great Northern arc only losing valua.
BILE time In doing so.
George Gemmell. tho popular Butte
agent Of the Chicago, Rock Island 4 Pa.
ciflc, emphatically denies tho report pub
lished in Butte morning paper that he
