DENVER, Nov. THE Butte football
team defeated that of the Denver Ath.
letic club today by q score Of 20 to O.
and did it easily. In the lineup Butte
averaged 10 pounds heavier than the
local team and their team work during
the game was far superior. The first
touchdown was made by Mcmillan in
seven minutes from the start and toward
the cloae OF the first half Benson made
another, Lasswell kicking goal both
times. a safety was also recorded
against the Denver team. Near the be.
ginning of the second half Dygert made

kicked goal, but after that the local
team held it's ground and the game
ended with the ball on Butte's territory.

Wool,

BosToN, Nov. 6.-The Boston Com.
mercial Bulletin will say tomorrow O
the wool market: There has been az
advance since the election of nearly five
per cent and some Of the woods are held
for even better figures. The market has
been materially strengthened by the i'm
mediate advance in the foreign market
on the strength Of McKinley's election.
During the summer, holders Of territory
woods were squeezed for money and they
exported wool at panic prices to get spot
cash. Some lots of fine staple territory
wool were sold in this way on a basis of
% cents f. o. b. in Boston. Now, the
same men who exported are holding
similar woods for 30 cents clean.
Last week these woods would not
bring over 32 cents clean. This is the
best measure of the extent to which the
election was discounted. The sales of
the week are 3,253,0C0 pounds domestic
and l,25C,OOO pounds foreign, against
3,oO0,COO pounds domestic and 2,41O,O 900
pounds foreign, last week, and 1888, 900
pounds domestic and l,1O5, 900 foreign
for the same week last year. The sales
to date show a decrease Of AZ, Gas, 1868
pounds domestic and 49, ECO pounds
foreign from the sales to the same date
in 1895.
The receipts to date show a decrease
OF l44,Gll bales domestic and l43, $50
bales foreign.
Foreign markets are exceptionally
strong and buoyant. Bradford evidently
means to get goods over here before the
tariff is raised.
A cable says: "McKinley's election
gives an impetus to trade in the wool
and clothing districts and Bradford and
Yorkshire. American dealers cabled
large orders today, and the prices Of raw
and manufactured materials arc advanc-

Court Down to the Court
OF Claims.

WASHINGTON, Nov. G.-PresideL t.elec'
Mckinley, during his coming term Of
office, will have the appointment of two
judges Of the United States supreme
court, three members of the supreme
court of the District Of Columbia, three
members OF the court Of claims, and
quite a number OF circuit and district
judges of the United States, il the
present occupants retire when they
become eligible to retirement on full
pay. All these judgeships are for
life, with the privilege OF retire,
ment at the age of 70 if
they have already served 10 years.
Justice Field of California has been
eligible for retirement from the supreme
bench for some years, He is 80 years of
age and might retire and have his sue
cessor appointed by Cleveland, but his
ambition is to eclipse previous records
OF length Of service on the bench.
Justice Gray becomes eligible for retire.
ment on March "a, 1893. Chief Justice
bingham OF the supreme court of
the District of Columbia and Judge
Hagner and Judge Cox of the same court
also will be eligible for retirement dur
ing McKinley's term. Judge Richard
son, chief of the court OF claims, died a
short time ago and his successor can be
appointed by Mr.. Cleveland. Judges
Mott, Weldon, and Davis will be eligible
retirement during McKinley's in
cumbency. The term OF Office of Chair
man Morrison OF the interstate commerce
commission expires Dec. 81, 1897, and
knapp's in December of the present
year.

DENVER, Nov. Ex-senator Teller ar
rived here from the east today. In an
interview he said: II do not think the
republican party will do anything for
silver during the coming four years The
declaration OF the st. Louis platform
amounts to nothing with the limitation
put on it. Besides that, the men who
dictated the st. Louis platform are op-
posed to bimetallism, international or
otherwise. Mckinley, it seems to me,
has shown by the speeches that he has
made that he is an advocate of the
gold standard on the ground that it
ia a better standard than b~imetalliem.
During the four years to come, | ex-
pect to see the republican party
abandon all p~retense to q desire to
secure international bimetallism and the
contest will hereafter be made between
the gold standard supporters and the
organized hosts OF bimetallism. I think
that four years from now people will be
sufficiently educated to understand the
danger OF the gold standard, and that
the party that stands for bimetallism in
1900 by the United States, alone, will
be successful. There is no reason why
we should be discouraged. Our candi-

Republicans VIII at Once Begin til.
I,D|- Campaign of 1898.
CINCINNATI, Nov. 6.-Upon the sug
gestion of the advisory committee of the
National league, President Woodmansee
has issued the following address:
ITO the Members of the Republican
Clubs Of the United States-Greeting
The splendid victory of Tuesday, in
which you took a conspicuous part, is q
heritage to every citizen who believes in
good government. I congratulate you
upon the outcome Of this memorable po-
litical contest. Many of you have Ia
bored to bring about this result with a
zeal that has known no weariness. The
effect Of your service has been felt in
every state where the fight has been
f%ercest. On behalf Of your organization
extend to you grateful Acknowledge
ment. The past Of the league is history.
We are now concerned about it's future.
1t is the ambition of those who are most
Interested in our league that it's infu-
ence for good may be enlarged and that
it's position 10 state and national politics
may be elevated and maintained. The
election to the presidency OF William
Mckinley, a man who was ever a friend
OF the league and one who appreciated
its value, will fill our hearts with re-
newed hope and courage.
"The debts of the league, that have 60
long been a mi to it's usefulness,
have been paid. With a clean record,
let US at once begin the campaign Of
1898. The republican party faces re.
sponsibilities today that will seriously
affect the American people. The hard
campaign which has just ended was
doubly hard by the silent forces
that had Eeen at work for years to I'M
dermine our financial policy. Let us
use the league between campaigns as to
counterfeit influences nufavorable to
our common cause.
MAKE all Mckinley clubs permanent
clubs or consolidate those that are in
your locality, Join your state league
without delay. During the winter
months have regular meetings to study
and discuss political questions, scatter
literature as freely as has been done for
years by the bimetallic leagues, SO that
when the actual battle of another cam
paign is upon us, our people will already
been educated and our victory then
will become an easy one.
again congratulating you, L bespeak
you earnest and cordial support for the
SUCCESS OF the league of republican
Very sincerely, D. D. Wood
mansee."
