IN FAVOR OF KNOXVILLE.

Knoxville, Tenn, Sept. 25.-After six
years of litigation the city of Knox
vile has won the suit brought against
the Board of Mayor and Alderman for
s225,000 by the Knoxville, Cumberland
Gap and Louisville Railroad. The
amount was voted to the road in bonds.
Upon completion of the line the city
claimed that the road had not met its
contracts and refused to issue the
bonds. The railroad brought suit in
the chancery court and won. An ap-
peal was taken to the Supreme court,
which decided in favor of the railroad
company, IL it had the stock ready to
issue, and the master was directed to
ascertain this fact. He reported in ia
vor of the railroad. Since that time
the state chancery court of appeals has
been established. The case was ar
gued before this court about year
ago. While the case was pending the
railroad offered to compromise for the
principal, deducting about $4,000 and
interest. The city refused the PROPOSE
ton, and won the case by an opinion
rendered by Judge r. M. Barton, of
Chattanooga. 1t will now go to the
Supreme court for confirmation or re-
yersal

AMERICAN POLITICS ABROAD.

According to G. Nj. Dodson, min
ing engineer of Chicago, the adoption
of the reputation platform by the
POpocrats at Chicago has during the
last two months prevented the invest
ment of millions of dollars of Euro
pean capital in the United States.
Mr.. Dodson has just returned from a
trip to London, Paris and Berlin,
where he went to make reports on
some mining properties in this cOun-
try. He was at the Planters last
night. From here he goes to Ste.
Geneyieve to look at some copper
mines.
"Al American securities are fiat in
Europe" he said to reporter for the
'Globe-Democrat' last night, "even
divldend-paying stocks are selling be-
low par. 1t has been so since the
adoption of the Popocratic platform
at Chicago and the nomination of
Bryan. The capitalists of London,
Paris and Berlin have a panicky feel
ing toward everything American.
A prominent capitalist whom saw
just before 1 left London said to me:
You threaten to repudiate us and we
can't afford to risk our money in the
United States until we know the re-
suit of the November elections He
told me this after l had made re-
port to him regarding some mining
properties in Montana and Colorado.
This free silver craze is skeeping mill
lions and millions of capital out of
this country. Until after the cleo
tions they will neither buy American
securities nor lend money on them. If
Bryan should be elected they are
prepared to step in and buy silver
mines, and they will turn out SIC dol
lars by the billion. "-Globe-D

MAKING CONDENSED MILK.

Condensed milk, which is so much
used for the food of infants, is pre-
pared by slowly eyaporating the wa
ter of milk by moderate heat. There
are two varieties, the plain, which is
condensed to about one-fourth of its
bulk and superheated, and to which
no sugar cane is added and the
stronger variety, which is more con-
densed and to which sugar cane is
added in excess, holding about 40 per
cent of sugar among its solid ingre-
dients. This excess of sugar pre-
vents the decomposition of the milk,
which will keep fresh for many hours
after the can has been opened.

RESTAURANT LIFE IN PARIS.

Americans Are The Most Frequent
Victims OF Servants.
The restaurant life of-Paris, says a
letter from that city in the Louisville
Courier-Journal, is as distinctive and
idiosyncratic as the club life of Lon
don. The two modes of living are to-
tally different, however, and mark ell
ementary Emergencies of national char
acter and temperament. The French
man is a gourmet; The Englishman
is gourmand. The Frenchman likes
the open air; the Englishman likes the
open air. too, but he wants his open
air to be latticed in and grit about
against intrusion. That which de-
lights the Frenchman-the glitter, the
chatter, the radiant and noisy ebb and
flow of the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES the En-
glishman.
Yet the better restaurants of Paris
do not get their profits off their French
patrons. 1t is the American who is
relied on to bring up the average and
to convert loss into gain, and for
the Americans, therefore, the trap is
set and the triggers are adjusted. He
may swear and squirm and amuse the
onlookers by his futile attempts in
very crooked French to make his
meaning plain, but to no avail. He
will have to pay the bill. The swell
restaurants have discovered a device
for taking the luckless American COM
pletely captive which deserves the
name of credit.
Like everything great, it is simple.
No price is affixed to the several dish
es upon the bill of fare. Thus the
stranger is left entirely in the dark.
He is at the mercy of the lady ac-
countant and the head walters There
is no fixed standard of value. There
is no check upon enterprising rapaeity.
You order your dinner blindfolded,
and when ia note" is brought you
have no recourse. The garcon shrugs
his shoulders. The other garcons
stand around and grin. The maitre
de cuisine is dignity little tempered
by majesty. You know that you are
being swindled. You know that mon
sieur yonder, who has had more dish
es than you, and better served, has
been charged some so per cent less.
But what can you do? You can do
nothing. You can simply disgorge.
If you ask the price in advance you
commit a dreadful solecism. What
does milor care about prices? Prices
are made for the canaille. If milor
wants cheap dinner he go to Duval.
The Cafe Voison exists for gentlemen,
not for persons who need to economize
The Cafe Anglaise does not desire
cheap custom. 1t prides itself on be-
ing. tires cher" The poor American
does not see it at all, but yet his vani-
ty being touched as we'll as his pocket
he goes away with an abridgment OF
the basso in his grumgle. He is wis
er but a poorer man.

The "solid south" is solid no longer,

HE WAS NOT AT HOME
Friends of Tom Maxwell Alarmed at
His Disappearance.
FEAR THAT HE IS BURIED
The Shaft in Which He Worked
Alone Is Caved In and Neigh
Dor Failed to Find Any
Trace of the Miner.

The many friends Of Tom Maxwell
are much exercised over a report which
was brought to this city last evening
by Henry Caspar from Dry Cottonwood
creek, about IL miles east of this city.
From surface indications Mr.. Caspar
believes that Maxwell is buried under
a cave-in in a prospect hole about 20
feet deep and with from six to ten rect
of earth on top of him.
Maxwell and he are neighbors; that
is, they live about one mile apart.
which is nearby, when out in the hills,
and the last time Caspar saw Maxwell
was about Christmas time. Maxwell
bought some provisions and during
their talk promised to come down often
and see Caspar. AS he had not showed
up since that time Caspar was sur
prised and made an investigation yes
day afternoon which resulted In his
coming to Anaconda for assistance.
Maxwells cabin door, was shut but
not locked. Within everything looked
as though he had just gone out and
left 1t. The bedclothes looked turned,
the remnants of a meal on the table,
his revolver in the scabbard on the
wall. Around the shaft where he was
working were his tools, saw, Ratchet
and square, while down below there
was a quantity of loose earth. with
evidence that it had slipped down from
above. There was rust on the tools
and the indications around the cabin
were that the occupant had been gone
for some time. Maxwell had been put
ting a ladder in the shaft and Mr.. Cas-
! par thinks he had accomplished this
and was at work below when caught
by cave.
Acting Coroner ]. NJ. Kennedy, WILL
lam Haynes, p. J. Maloney and others
guided by Mr.. Caspar, will drive out to
the scene and ascertain If possible
whether or no the prospector is In the
bottom of the shaft.
Tom Maxwell was formerly lines
man for the Rocky Mountain Tele-
graph company and has scores of
friends throughout the state who would
be glad to learn that the mystery has
some other explanation than the one
which the investigators fear to find
to-day.

Anaconda Ne0s.

We viii suppose. with view to sim
plicity, that each of these six lots is
worth to a dealer "a. but as our
friends are probably the only persons
in the room who could dispose of such
property and who understand its val
ne, and as they refrain from competing
it is not at all surprising to find that
the six lots are bought by A at the rate
of 10 shillings apiece.
So much for the first stage in the
plot. The sale being concluded, A, Il,
c and ID foregather at some obscure
public house, where they can have the
use of private room, and then begins
the second auction. Lot No is offer
ed, and, after some competition, is al
lotted to c, for, let us say. e3 los. He

amount. So with the next lot, which

may be. and, In. fact, the procedure as
quoted may serve as an illustration of

RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED.
Trades Council VS.. the Great Falls Bust.
ness Mems Protective Association.


The following resolutions bearing upon
the Business Mems Protective association
of Great Falls were passed by the Deer
Lodge Trades and Labor Council last
evening:
Whereas, The prosperity of the busi-
ness men of Montana has in the past
been due to the high rate of wages paid
all classes of labor; and,
Whereas. We firmly believe that their
success in the future will depend largely
upon that standard being maintained;
and.
Whereas, The labor unions of Montana
have been instrumental in bringing about
the present rate of wages: and,
Whereas, The eradication of labor
unions would inevitably result in a
reduction of wages generally: and,
Whereas, 1t is imperative that labor
unions should exist in order that the pro-
ducers of wealth may enjoy to the fullest
extent the blessings of life and personal
81 liberty. to which they are justly entitled;
and,
Whereas. The right of labor to organize
for mutual protection against capitalistic
combines and trusts and to state at what
rate of wages and under what conditions
they will work is admitted by all fair
minded people; therefore be it
Resolved. First, that we denounce the
action of the merchants of Great Falls in
organizing for the purpose Of introducing
non-union labor in the stores OF that city,
as an effort upon their part to discrmi-
nate against the men upon whom they
must necessarily depend for their busi-
ness support.
Resolved, Second, that should such an
attempt terminate successfully II would
inevitably result in a reduction of wages
generally in that city and would ulti-
mately result in the working classes of
Montana being forced to work under the
same conditions as confront the people
of less prosperous communities, which
would be dangerous to the prosperity of
the state.
Resolved. Third. that we tender to the
labor unions OF Great Falls our sympa-
thy and hearty support in this their no.
bile and earnest effort to prevent the de-
struction of organic labor in that city.
Resolved, Fourth. that copies of these
resolutions be presented to the Anaconda
Standard and other Montana papers for
publication; also to the different labor
unions throughout the state.
