structures will be allowed to go up so feet
into the air. The fire limits remain the
same. The law on stand and fire escapes
is the same as the old one. Another big
change is that smaller buildings will be
allowed smaller walls. For instance, a
structure with 25-foot frontage and four
stories high will be allowed 16-inch walls
instead of walls twenty-one inches thick, q
saving of ten inches of frontage.
A great deal of care and time has been
paid to the new ordinance. The chief
features of it have been taken bodily from
the very best ordinances in the big Eastern
cities. As it stands. it has been approved
and highly commended by the chapter of
local architects.

and Lecture Room, Etc.

Missoula, May 31.-Judge Woody re-
ceived a letter to-day from the clerk
OF the supreme court of the United
States, which contained the pleasant
information that the finding of the
lower court had been sustained in the
case of the Northern Pacific railroad
VS.. A. ]. Urlin. in which the railroad
company was a plaintiff in error. This
case is the most important one ever
supreme court and the result is natur-
ally very gratifying TO those interested
in behalf of Mr.. Urlin.
The original case was Urlin VS..
Northern Pacific Railway company, a
suit for damages for injuries sustained
at Gold Creek station. 1t came to trial
in the United States circuit court be-
fore Judge Knowles May 81, 1891. Three
days later. May 20. the jury returned a
verdict for the plaintiff for $3.50.
Woody & Webster appeared for Mr..
Urlin and Attorney Cullen represented
the railroad company The defendants
at once sued out a writ of error. and
the case went to the supreme court. the
court of appeals not having been es-
tablished at that time.
The case was submitted on briefs
April 10. this year. Judge Woody pre-
pared the brief for Mr.. Urlin and the
brief for the other side was written by
Messrs. Cullen and Toole of Helena,
and ex-Attorney General Garland. The
vitory is a signal one and is received
with much satisfaction by the attor-
neys who have had the case in charge
and by Judge Knowles. whose findings
are sustained by the supreme court
Judge Woody is receiving the congratu-
lations of his friends and Mr.. Urlin is
naturally much pleased.

FOR THE STUDENTS.
Preparations Making for the Benefit of
University Pupils.


Missoula, May 31.-Prof. S. A. Mer-
rift of the scientific department of the
state university, has completed the
plans for the arrangement OF the rooms
in the south side building, which will
be used by his department and is ready
to have the work commenced. The
rooms are those on the east side OF the
building on the second story and the
one in the southwest corner The
rooms are 26 feet square and between
the two east side rooms is smaller
compartment, ~ feet by IA, which will
also be utilized.
The northeast room will be fitted up
as a chemical laboratory. Tables will
be built for the accommodation OF "a
students. These tables will be supplied
with sinks, running water and drawers
and closets for apparatus. Against the
south wall will be built a hood. con-
nected with the fiue. and heavy table
for an assay furnace and crucible
lamps. In the northwest corner of the
room will be a private table for the in
structor and another table in the OPP
posite corner will carry mortars, anvils
and other heavy apparatus.
The small room will open from the
laboratory, and i'm this will be stored
the chemicals and reagents. The coarse
pulp" balances will also be placed in
this room.
In the large hall will be put cases
for reference books. mineral cabinets
and analytical balances. Professor
Merritts desk will also be here and
this will be the headquarters for the
scientific department
The southeast room will be used as
a lecture room and a physical labora-
tory and will be fitted with desk arm
chairs, - arranged in tiers, which will
accommodate 40 students. There will
also be work tables for the students
and a raised lecture table for the in
structor. There will be apparatus cases
here. hood and other facilities for
carrying on the work. A screen will be
built for the stereopticon, which will
be freely used in the demonstration of
scientific subjects.
The third room will be arranged as a
biological laboratory and lecture room
and will be fitted up with work tables
and book cases. There will be an aqua
rum built in this room and. as ii is
probable that the students will at first
use this room as a drawing room for a
time, there will also be cases for draw
ing materials.
Professor Merritt's plans are COM
plete and utilize all the space to the
very best advantage. The rooms are
well lighted and will be literally pro-
vided with blackboards. The arrange
ment is such that the entire work of
Professor Merritts department is con-
densed in space and can all be under
his personal observation. on the whole
the arrangement is a model one and
will greatly facilitate the work Of the

ConstantInople, May 3l.-Advices from
Moosh state the residence of the French,
British and Russian ENJOYS have been
forcIbiy entered by Turkish gendarmes
who attempted to arrest a servant of the
ENJOYS. They used abusive language and
were expelled with difficulty. This news,
coupled with the news from Jeddah that
the British consul and vice counsel, Rus
sian acting counsel and French consular
secretary were attacked and shot at out
side the town, has caused excitement in
diplomatic circles. The shooting is at
tributed to Beflouins. Three British war
ships have been ordered TO Jeddah, with
instructions TO protect foreigners and in.
vestigate the killing of the British vice
consul, and the wounding OF other con-
sular officers. -

Consul Brandt, the Russian consul, and

consulate, were walking near town when,
apparently without provocation, they
we're assailed by eight Boudouin Arabs,
who, when only four yards away. opened
fire upon them with guns and pistols.
The British consul expired 10 minutes
after he was shot. The recovery of the
other three is doubtful. Fifteen arrests
have been made and the greatest excite
ment prevails.

Dunn's Report.

New York, May SIR. q. Dun g.
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade will say:
More far-reaching than any other
change during the past week is the
continued rise i'm the prices of wheat
and cotton. There has been some evil
dence during the week that both great
crops have suffered more than at first
appeared. other changes are almost
all favorable. and some highly en-
oouraging labor troubles are reported
Conditions are satisfactory, and the
substantial increase in the commercial
demand is a good sign. Exchanges
through the clearing houses have been
greatly inflated by speculation, and at
this time last year We're cut down by
coal strikes and towards the end of
May, 1898, greatly reduced by bank
failures but for the week exceed last
years by 10 per cent and a fall of only
Sc per cent below those of 1898, while
the daily average for May is 26.9 per
cent larger than last year, but IL less
than in 1898. Wool manufacturers are
doing well, although not all the ma
chinery is employed. but the demand
has been better and there are occa-
sional advances in prices OF goods. The
| iron manufacture is gaining rapidly
| and the average OF prices in October.
| 1891. has now risen TO SCI per cent.
| The structural demand is very large,
and while buying in other forms of
iron and steel products are still con-
sentative. great confidence prevails
that prices will hereafter advance ma
terially. IL is believed the wage ques-
ton viii be settled at Pittsburg this
year without any strike. The failures
! during the past week have been rs
| against lSi last year.
