BOUND FOR CANADA.
Cree indians Under Escort Leave Mis-
soula for Home.

Early risers yesterday morning
witnessed one OF the longest and
most unique professions seen in Mis-
soula in quite while. 1t was the
Cree Indians under guard of soldiers
being escorted back to their Canad
ian homes. First came a detail OF
soldiers in command of Lieuts. Perch
ing and Fleming, then followed four
six mule government wagons con-
tanning rations, both for the soldiers
and Indians, also the tents and camp
outfits of the soldiers. Next came
Chief Chicken Hawk and about two
hundred members OF his tribe, Wa
gons, buggies, travois, and in fact
vehicles Of every description were
,ssed to carry them and their effects
while quite a number Of bucks,
squaws and papooscs were mounted
on ponies, the squaws riding straddle
just like the men. Then followed
aboHt five hundred head of Indian
ponies in charge Of a number Of bucks
while a detail Of soldiers brought up
the rear.
At Garrison they will be met by a
number or indian SCOUTS VINO nave
under guard about one hundred and
forty more Indians, and from there
they will go to Great Falls and from
there tp Canada. ........- :.....~
During the two weeks the Indians
were in camp at the post quite Il
number OF people from the city were
daily visitors out there and were
highly entertained, for among the
Indians were several musicians of no
mean ability. a squaw in particu-
lar, who is a graduate Of the Indian
school at Carlisle, Pennsylvania, per-
forming with great skill on the gli-
tar, zitlier and accordion. Horns,
moccasins, and in fact Indian trim
kets Of every description that an
eastcrncr is SO anxious to buy, could
have been bought ut any price.
Numbered among the Crces were
half breeds, Chippcwas and French
people who were indignant and re-
monstrated much at being sent from
the United States, but as they were
caught among the tribe they had to
suffer and be sent to Canada alSo.-

gree the cause Of depression and fin
ancial distress prevalent throughout
the land: that the condition now cx-
isting will continue while the pres
cnt monetary system lasts, and
that he would fain turn to the
use Of both gold and silver as they
were used prior to 1878, and he has
proposed such change of financial
system by the usual constitutional
methods. Such was the character
and such the political opinions of the
candidate known to his countrymen
who by their representatives in con-
vcntion, selected from every state in
the union, put him in nomination
for the highest Office within the
gift Of the American people. This
is 4 critical period in our national
history. Our industrial and finan-
cial independence Of other nations
and peoples is involved in this cam
paign, and We firmly believe there
will be no return to prosperity until
we shall have changed our financial
system SO as to restore the bimctallic
system established by the fathers Of
the republic, and SO believing we
urge all friends Of gold and silver as
standard money and the opponents Of
a single gold standard to give to Mr..
Bryan and Mr.. ScWall their hearty
support.
In advising this course we do not
consider it necessary that they shall
abandon or surrender their political
views on other questions.
Profoundly expressed with the inn
pOrtancc Of tho issues Of this cam
pagn for ourselves and associates we
respectfully submit the foregoing to
the candid consideration Of the

A KENTUCKY GRIEVANCE.
People Of That State Misrepresented
by q Play.

The Bookman.
A critical Kentuckian writes to the Book
man concerning certain anachronisms which
he fnds in Mr.. Cranes new play, "Tne
Governor of Kentncky." This Critic contends
Is not true; and after giving in detail the
respects In which ii Is lacking, goes on to
say that If Mr. Crane did make a visit to
Kentucky in order to take notes, as he is
said to have done. then he must have found
the executive (such as a Republican Gov
ernor) heretofore unknown.
AS to the mountaineerS flask, which
plays no inconspicuous part, the Ken
tuckian has also a protest to enter, affirm
ing that no moonshiner was ever known
to carry anything more sophisticated than
a fat glass bottle with a corncob stopper.
So far as the dark red liquor masquerade
ing as m~oonshine whisky is concerned, the
critic considers that too utterly absurd to
in Kentucky know that the real thing is as
coloriess as water.
But these hits are trif1es light as air COM
pared with the Indictment with which the
Indignant Kentuckian winds up. Where. de-
mands he, where throughout the length and
tains to the Blue Grass. from the Pennyrile
TO the Purchase-were such things as make
the special points of this preposterous play
ever heard, or thought. or dreamed of? Think
for a moment what they are: bottles of
whisky on the supper tables at a ball in the
Governors mansion: two New York women
OF Bowery looks and manners among the
most honored guests; an elderly maiden lady
OF good Kentucky family cons0rting with
horse ockeys: two men. assumably gentle
ence Of a girl whom they respect, And this
Is what has been enthusiastically received
bv Eastern audiences as "a convincing por-
tfayal OF Kentucky life and character"

WHEAT MARKET FIRM
WEAKNESS OF FRIDAY OVERCOME
AND An ADVANCE SCORED.
Corn and Oats Weak, the Latter Fall
ing OIL uyfng I'm ProvisICus
Sent Prices Upward

CHICAGO. March 14-Wheat, although
dull. was firm to-day and gained sc over the
closing price yesterday. Corn and oats, be-
sides being inactive, were rather weak and
especially the latter. which lost A9%c on the
day. Some buying of pork on a dull market
gave provisions a hoist and added 17lkc to
pork. Csc to lard and Zoe to ribs.
Yesterdays respondent feeling in the
wheat pit abated over night and May opened
at from hc to &c above the previous days
close. The shorts. however. were not in
clined to cover on the first advance, and on
the exhaustion of early buying orders, the
market weakened On the reaction May de-.
ciined to 62ssc. The Liverpool market showed
only a very moderate amount of sympathy
with the bears here. inasmuch as yester-
days break of 1%c per bu at Chicago brought
a quotation of only I'D per Genital decline at
Liverpool. The Argentine shipments for the
week exhibited slight premonitory symptoms
OF an impending collapse. The quantity ex-
ported was loo. 600 bu for the week. and. ac-
cording to recent advices from there, each
succeeding week for some time to come
should show a gradual decrease in the ex-
ports. The Minneapolis and Duluth receipts
were SAL cars. against 404 a week ago, and 327
carloads on the corresponding day of the
year before. The general expectation re-
Sardlng MOnday 8 visible supply statement
is that 1t will show only 400, 00 bushels or
10000 bu decrease. The market became firm
again in the last session on the cessation of
selling. May rose again 20 631sc. and was
bringing that as the market closed.
Corn gave no fresh sign of returning ami
nation. The price of May kept within the
range of 29%Q29Ac and $3.50. The closing
price was 29Ac. with sellers at that. Some
few selling orders for May were received
from New York.
For a Saturday the oats market more
than did justice 10 itself. A good business
was transacted and some heavy lines
changed hands. Demand was good and feel
ing firm. Prices at the close were a shade
higher than yesterdays final quotations.
May opened at from 20$sc to 2O14G205sc, sold
at 20Isc and closed at 20l4G20ssc. Some no.
900 bu of No. 2 white, clipped, were sold
for export to-day.
Provisions were firm at the opening and
became stronger as the session progressed.
The buying OF pork by John Cudahy was
the chief feature. May pork, which closed
yesterday at 1886, opened at 500 to-day,
and after selling sparingly at s9.6715 the
Cudahy brokers bought enough TO advance
the price to $9.S5, and it closed at $9.S212.
Lard and ribs went up in sympathy with
pork. the former closing with a net gain for
the day of .05c and the latter with a gain
of Ice.
The estimated receipts for Monday are
Wheat, 40 cars; corn, 500 cars; oats, go
cars; hogs. $4,000.
