A BUCKET BRIGADE.
The Black Eagle Hose boys Ran From

the Dance Ia the Fire.
Great Falls. April 12.-About . o'clock
this morning fire was discovered in a
frame building in the little settlement
situated at the northern end of the
Fifteenth street bridge n commonly
known as Little Chicago" The fire
broke out in the basement of the build
ing occupied by G~ozdonovich e. Co. as a
grocery store and rapidly jumped to
the International hotel. next door, a
two-story frame building of 80 rooms,
owned by the Goodrich Lumber COM
pany. AS the settlement is entirely out
of the city limits and without fire pro-
lection, it was almost impossible to
check the flames, which spread along
the west side of Bridge street. All of
the buildings oil that side of the street
were wiped out, in addition to the
buildings already given, a meat shop
occupied by Byersdorf & Nolla and
owned by the Goodrich Lumber COM
pany. the saloon of Alfred Malmberg.

left.
The Black Eagle Hose company was
busy at the dance given in honor of
John j. Case at the club rooms on the
north side of the river and the boys
rushed down from the dance. and
forming a bucket brigade, did valiant
service in preventing the flames from
spreading to the thickly built portion
of n settlement. which lies to the east
of Bridge street. This part is mostly
dwellings, and had the flames been ell
lowed to cross the street there would
have been 800 homeless people this
morning.

Great Falls, April lotto Schoen-
feldt to-day is circulating a paper M
securing a large number of signatures
of those who desire to become members
Of a cavalry company. This Is but n
of the many ways in which the war
spirit is manifesting itself in this city.
Already 25 have signified their willing
ness to 60 into the field Of battle on
horseback, and Mr.. S~choenfeldt be-
lieves that he will be able to double the
number within a very few days. Sure
ly no other branch of the service IL bet
ter fitted to represent Montana and it's
history, and the company without
doubt will be an ono to itself and to
the people from which it goes. The
scheme will be more fully formulated
when a sufficient number have put
down their names n officers Will be
chosen at that time also.
Mr.. Schoenfeldt late this evening
stated that he had received enough adj
ditions TO his list to make the number
of recruits owe so. Each applicant
when he signs the roster is required to
take an oath of allegiance to the United
States government and to enter it's
service in any possible war. The mem
bers expect that the government will
supply the necessary arms and accou-
trements, while IL is said that the
horses have been donated by stockmen
of this vicinity. Should their services
not be needed at the present time 1t is
the intention to organize just the same
and apply for admission to the state
militia. About Thursday evening the
members will meet for the purpose of
electing officers and perfecting organ

was the prevailing tone. however. and
the net results are I'm nearly all cases

sentiment in Wall street is not hopeful.
Doubt and uncertainty prevailed in all
quarters and reports from European
bourses indicated the same uncertain feel
ing In every market in the world as to
the outcome of the controversy between
the United States and Spain. IL the
transactions in a few speculative leaders
were taken out of to-day's market the
dimensions of the trading would appear
almost ludicrously small. Even such
speculative favorites as the Changers
showed comparative apathy. There was
a movement In tobacco which carried the
price up nearly seven points, the motive
being the reported settlement OF the con-
troversy In the trade of the plug tobacco.
The advance in price was also said to
be directed against an outstanding short
interest. There was large buying Of the

time a shade above yesterdays closing.
Opening prices here were not as low as

The market showed a slight degree OF
animation in the first hour on buying at

was that differences in congress would
beget delay. and that delay added to the
chances of peaceful settlement. The vol.
ume of the buying was not impressive
and 1t had ceased before noon. For the
rest of the day the market was to all
intents and purposes lifeless and the
closing sales were the lowest of the day.

Great Falls, April 12.-Some Of the
tramps in the city had a pretty good
breakfast this morning. Some time
after midnight a party of them visited
a number of houses on the South side
and cleaned out the larder. II is be-
lieved that they first struck the resi-
dence OF Lewis Coy on Second avenue
south. They went through the ice box
and among other eatables they took
several pies and a cake. They left their
card in the form of a smooth piece of
board on which was pencilled. Times

They also got away with several
pounds Of sirloin stake. They entered
the shed Of Frank Ness Inc there they
secured a whole ham in addition to
butter and bread They were without
a piece Of board and they scrawled
their sentiments on the wall above the
Ice box and the sentiment read as at
the first place. Later they called on the
refrigerator at j. H. wilkins on Sew
enth avenue south. and mad a consid-
erahle addition to their stock of provi-
eions. Here they left another card
bearing their motto. They may have
made other visits during the night. but
these three are all that have been re-
ported.
