dressed by Judge j. w. Strevell and
Hon. C. II. Middleton, of Miles City, who
advocated the claim OF the people OF

certain that eastern Montana realizes
the seriousness of the question, and
when the votes are counted they will
show that Custer and Dawson counties

Ebbinr.

St Petersburg, Oct. 3i.--The official
bulletin. issued at 10 o'clock this morn
ing, says the czar slept few hours late
last night. and the bleeding has some
what subsided. Otherwise his condition
is unchanged. The Official Messenger
publishes the following account Of the
cZar's Illness:
"The disquieting symptoms which
manifested themselves at Spala became
less marked in the early days OF his ma
jesty's sojourn in Livndia. The czar
was able TO attend divine service after
arriving there. and also able TO drive
about. Then symptoms OF weakness ap-
peared, with falling appetite, loss OF
sleep, weakening heart action, Increase
of albumen, and the swelling OF his ex-
tremities.
"On oct. 10 there was return OF the
czar's appetite, and on oct 20 he was
able to obtain the necessary rest In
sleep, which produced a notable Increase
in his strength and a reduction Of the
albumen. The same day the queen Of
Greece arrived, and Father Ivan, OF
Gronstadt, who offered up prayers for
the emperor, also reached Livadia. His
majesty then received holy communion.
which assisted in tranquiliZing his
mind.
"Oct % the emperor prayed with Fa-
ther Ivan. The Princess AllX, OF Hesse-
Darmstadt. arrived that evening. and
by order Of the emperor was received
tremendously with n guard OF honor
and with the military band playing. The
meeting of the czar with Princess Alix,
whom he had been long craving TO see.
strongly excited the patient by the Joy
which the meeting caused him. and his
majesty's physicians feared the effect
OF this excitement, but the night passed
favorably.
There was continued oedema Of the
feet on Oct. 26. which hndered free
movements During all this time the
czar. in spite OF his suffering, did not
neglect state business but at the urgeus
request of his physicians. - handed
over the documents relating 10 current
affairs and reports requiring consider
able examination. TO the czar0witz Ills
majesty. however, decided the most inn
portnnt cases and signed state papers.
1T is semi-ofncinlly announced to-day
that all reports regarding the imme-
diate marriage OF the c1arowitz To the
Princess Alix are unfounded,"

about the poor water supply of Helena

also brought up the tay question and
other things the people have been al

and which he claims are false, especially
as to the produce shipped TO Helena

people to vote for Anaconda.
Paris Gibson was the next speaker,
and his remarks were mostly on the
state institutions. dwelling mostly on
the agricultural college. He has no uso
for Helena and the Helena people, and
told the audience that Cascade county
would give Anaconda rs per cent Of its
vote.
Mats followed and spoke Of the sub
jects already worn threadbare. He
brought up the Anaconda land where
the tailings are dumped, and other mat
ters which the people are tired listen

view, would be called a glorious show

But the usual enthusiasm was lacking.
