A special train brought to Anaconda
yesterday afternoon a company of dis
tinguished guests, consisting of Presi-
dent James j. Hill and other promin-
ent railroad men. They were met al
Great Falls by Marcus DAILY. who ac-
companied them on their visit in that
city and in Butte, and yesterday assist
ed by Vice President Donahue and Su-
perintendent Chapman of the B., A. &
p, escorted the party on a tour of the
shelters and refinery.
The journey westward was continued
at 1880 o'clock when the visitors train
was switched to the Montana Union

Urges a Quick Reply.

London, Feb. 19.-The Westminster
Gazette this afternoon urges the Mar
quis of Salisbury to reply quickly to
the American proposal in regard to the
appointment of joint British and
American Cancellation commission, say
ing: There can be no doubt as to
what the reply would be to a minister
who would set his back against arbi-
tration. We are free to accept the con-
ciliation which America proposes, and
the only possible hitch is the possible
objection of Venezuela to the matter
being taken out of her hands and
Great Britain and the United States
treating it as a question between them
selves. For us, there Is a positive ad-
vantage in being visavis to the United
States and not Venezuela. If America
is claiming the dispute as her own she
must also assume the reasonable and
consequential liability of going bail for
Venezuela We, at least, have nothing
to complain Of"

SO. e5 a day for yard foremen and s3.I5 for
helpers and 50 a day for engineers. There
have been no threats of any change in the
schedule, and 1 do not believe that any
change is contemplated. Some of the ex-
ira men know a good deal more about
changes that are to be made than the
officials of the road
1t is a fact, however, that some of the
trainmen have a grievance against Gen
eral Manager Warren for the wholesale
manner in which he has been distributing
lay-offs around without, as they consider,
sufficient cause. but they are not talking
about a strike. In explaining the condi-
ton of things last evening one of the old
est trainmen on the road said: Things
that have never been noticed on any
eastern road or any western road except
the Great Northern, and which we never
noticed on this road until Mr.. Warren
became general manager, are now con-
sidered a sufficient excuse for a lay-off
Men are called into st. Paul on the most
frivolous little misdemeanors and given
a Is or 30-day lay-off. No more respect is
shown for men who have been with the
company for 10 or Is years than those
who have only been on the payroll for 10
days. The trouble is that Mr.. Warren
does not know anything about railroad
ing and he is trying to show an authority
that he does not know how to WELD. AS
he is continually aggravating the men
they are all turning against him. If a
man is not worth having he ought to be
fired. There are none of us who believe
that Mr.. Hill knows what Mr.. Warren is
doing. for he is not that kind of a man.
There are spoilers all over the line in the
guise of express guards who are supposed
to send in an account of everything they
see. Their reports are sent in to the ex-
press companies and are then turned
over to General Manager Warren, who
refers the alleged shortcomings to the
different division superintendents. 1 have
not heard any talk of strike, but the
men in the traffic department are all
very sore on Mr.. Warren"

ENCOURAGING REPORTS.
Directors of the Bullion Geld & silver
Mining Compsny Meet

The directors of the Bullion Gold &
Silver Mining company held a meet
ing in Devine & O'Brien's office yester-
day. They decided to withdraw all OF
the block of treasury stock which was
placed on the market last fall, except
10000 shares. Late reports from the
property are 10 the effect that the lead
for which the tunnel was opened has
been found. and makes a showing en-
tirely satisfactory to the stockholders.
There is now about 300 feet of tunnel
on the property of the company and 50
feet of a cross-cut. The work now in
progress Is being done under contract
and is by order of the directors to fol-
low the lead. The Bullion is being de
veloped by Anaconda capital and it's
success is distinctively due to home en-

AN EAST SIDE RUMOR.
IL Is Said In Some Our In Helena
That a Strike Is brewing.


That a Strike Is brewing.
The following is from a story of pos
sible strike on the Montana Central,
which appeared i'm yesterdays Helena In
dependent:
Dissatisfaction among the trainrnen on
the Montana Central railroad with some
of the recent changes in the schedule OF
wages and other threatened changes.
caused rumors of strike on the road In
the city terday. but the strike did not
materialize. although Il is not a settled
fact that II will not. The employees have
appointed a grievance committee and the
members OF that committee were out late
last night discussing the situation"
Probably the greatest dissatisfaction
which exists in Helena is that which fol-
lowed the removal of the Montana Cen
trail freight division from that city TO
Clancy. and II is possible that It's threat
ened strike is a result of that dissatisfac-
ton So far as could be learned by a
Standard reporter last evening the Mon
tana Central employees i'm Butte have no
serious grievances. They have not heard
any threats of change in the schedule
or Of any cut I'm the mileage between
Clancy and Butte. and any strike on the
Montana Central without the cooperation
OF the men i'm Butte would be very short
lived.
\ local official OF the Great Northern
said last evening; ''Trainmen are allowed
100 miles for the run between Butte and
Clancy. the same as between Butte and
Helena. and I have no idea that there
will be any change. The actual mileage
between Butte and Helena is % miles and
between Butte and Clancy n IS $ miles
Some Of the extra men imagined that
there would be a reduction in the mile
are when tho division was removed. but
| have not received any intimation OF a
change. The schedule that was agreed
upon at the time Of the strike Is being
lived up to in every respect. The pay is

Thry neit.
William Lynch and Jack Miller, two
fellows who were run out of town with
a bunch of vags a few days ago, return
ed to this city yesterday and fell into
the hands of the police. When arraign-
ed before Judge Fitzgerald yesterday
they pleaded eagerly for another chance
to get out of town, and, contrary to
the usual vag, had a holy horror of be-
ing sent to Jail. They told the Judge
that they got into town by pure acct
dent, that they had walked out before,
to Philipsburg, because the railroad
men put them off the train when they
tried to ride. From Philipsburg they
went to Garrison, via Drummond, and
then started on a train for Butte, and
were told IL did not come to Anaconda.
They were panied beyond measure
when they discovered about midnight,
that they were at Mill creek and only
came on into town to get something to
eat. lie us go this time, judge, and
we will never come to Anaconda again.
We will leave II I'm 10 minutes"
The court told them that he recogniZ-
ed the fact that they were slick sort OF
fellows, different i'm class from the
genus hobo, and because of that. even
more dangerous to the community. If
caught here again they would get the
limit Of the law. II the pair kept up the
speed with which they left the court
room till this morning. they ought TO
be nearing the suburbs of Chicago by 9
o'clock to-day.

Missoula. Feb. 19.-At the rooms Of
the Lotus club this evening represent
atives of the Gun club. Baseball asso-
citation and bicycle men discussed the
question OF a general athletic club with
common grounds. No decision was

something OF this sort may be accom-
plished. The baseball men want Ath-

the street railway. while the Gun club
favors the location near the permanent
university grounds. IL may that some
compromise may be made that will rem

suggested.

posed plan would not work in prac-
tice; and that the interests Of the gas
company would be served, . If this
scheme goes forward, by not bidding
at all. This Is the other side Of the
case. Mr.. Livingston is always a cogent
reasoner. and has his facts ready at
command. The board of public works,
on the other hand, have not, we under
stand, made these recommends atoms
without an extensive inquiry into
methods of lighting and cost of serv-
ice elsewhere, and they also are sup
posed to have accessible the statistics
upon which they rely. Meantime, the
central fact is that the city Of st. Paul
must save at least $4,000 in the item
OF public lighting next year. Nobody
expects work to be done at less than
cost. but this reduction Of expenses is
a business necessity, and '.1ost people
believe it to be aLfinancial possibility.

WASHINGTON, Jan. -Sena tor
Jones, of Arkansas, tomorrow will re-
new his notice of his intention to ask
the senate to continue in session on
thursday next until a vote shall be
reached on the senate silver substitute
for the bond bill. He hopes to secure
unanimous agreement to this proposi-
tlon. Senator Allen, who objected last
FRIDAY, has signified his withdrawal
however, some objection may be raised
by some Of the anti-silver Democrats
senators Villas and Hill today intima ted
that they might interpose opposition to
the agreement. There has been consid-
cradle effort to prevail upon them to
desist in this course, but the friends
OF the bill did not feel assured of sue
cess In this direction when the senate
adjourned today. The anti-silver Re
pupHcans generally say they will make
no objection 10 the votes being taken at
the time suggested.
Inc reason for the objection made by
Senator Allen on Friday was developed
today. He had become satisfied that
II day should be fixed for the vote
the anti-silver men would object to the
credentials of the Utah senators, have
them referred to committee and thus
Keep the new senators out of their
