Rain ORDERS A HALT
Calls Time on the Forces of Busy
Outdoor Anaconda Workmen.
DELAY IN BUILDING LINE
Last Weeks Storm Recalls to the Minds
of Montana Pioneers the Days When
Noah Was Obliged to Seek
Refuge in a Big Boat.

The very unfavorable weather. of the
past week interfered materially with
building operations in this city. The
heavy rain storm which continued in
cessantly for two days and a few hours
more made outdoor work an impossi-
bility, and in some cases acted as a
serious setback. The brick yards al
most completely covered with bricks
from the mud mill spread out to dry,
were converted into choppy mud seas.
and the sun is boss of the situation up
there, and unless it comes out and
dries up things pretty soon there will
be but few red brick on the market in
July.
Men, teams and scrapers were en-
gagged in filling up sewer trenches on
the west side when the big rain came,
and some of h trenches dug for con-
nection purposes will have to be
cleaned out, as the water caused the
pits to ave in most places.
Work on the Flood and MacCallum &
Cloutier buildings on Park avenue was
necessarily delayed. The basement of
the Flood building is about completed
ready for the first-story walls. The
brick walls OF the MacCallum & Clou-
TIER DulluluB are BOlHS up at a fdplu
rate. The new Austrian churc is un-
der cover and the rain did not delay
operations there to any great extent.
A large number of cottages are in
course of construction, and the carpen-
tiers on many of them had a few days
layoff in consequence of the moisture.
The streets now are only used for
business. They are Travelled by deliv-
erymen, woodhaulers and truckmen,
but no bikers or promenaders. and they
are cut up pretty badly. The roads
leading to Silver Lake, Warm and
Gregson Springs are soft and in places
next to impossible. They are cut, too.

SCHOOL BONDS.
An Important Election 20 he Held Here
Next Tuesday.

In the excitement of Race day and
Fourth of July celebration. but little
interest has been taken in the approach
ing election on the proposition to bond
the school district in the sum OF $780,
900. 1t is probable that a large vote
will not be po1led, but the general i'm
preston is that the proposition will
carry almost without a dissenting
voice. The purpose is pretty well un-
derstood and no opposition to the ques-
ton Of bonds has been prominent in
any quarter. The polls will be at the
High school building.

TALK OF PEACE.

A dispatch from Madrid says: The
belief here in official circles, though
not publicly expressed, is that the
probability of direct overtures for
pence with the United States is only o
question of hours. The Queen is as anx
ious as the ministers to come to
terms if the United States is not too ex-
acting. Otherwise, the war party is
sure to have it's way.
The crisis at last has come which the
revolutionary parties have desired. To
us9 the expressions of leading liberal
member of the cabinet!
Strange to say, it is the United
States which has to decide whether, by
imposing on the Queen Regent, the
government and the monarchial parties
and generals hard conditions Of peace,
a revolution of the military and the
people shall take place, with Carlism
rising and civil war in its wake.
"Should America be generous, and
meet US half way, we would assent to
the independence of Cuba and war
indemnity. if not so heavy as to cripple
the restoration of our finances and
credit. Naturally, in the Philippines
we would not attempt 10 re-establish
the old state of things or q preponder.
ance OF friars, and might devise some
autonomy coupled with q commercial
regime acceptable for the United States
and the European powers. We cannot
understand the Americans design
against our rule in Porto Rico, which
the natives never opposed.
"If America, by too hard conditions,
drives us to despair and prolonged re-
sistance, she must be prepared to face
complications in Europe which are sure
to arise from her aggressions on the
coasts of the Peninsula and in the Ca
naries and Balesrics. Complications
are sure to arise also from her having
undertaken to rule, protect and main
tain order in Cuba and the Philippines
after we lose them"

LYNCHED.

John Henry James, the negro who
on Monday, near Charlottesville, as
saulted Miss Julia Hotopp, and was
that night taken over the high wall OF
the Jail yard, plsced on freight train
and sent TO Staunton to escape the
vengeance of Infatuated citizens, met
death yesterday g the hands OF these
sane citizens while be was upon his re.
turn to Charlottesville to stand trial.
The prisoner left Staunton at 10 o'clock
in the morning in charge of Chief OF
Police Frank Parish and Lucien Watts,
sheriff of the county. When the train
was nearing Woods crossing, about
four miles west of Charlottesville, the
officers noticed crowd at the station,
and at once took in the situation. As
soon as the train slowed up q number
of men, unmarked, boarded the plat
forms of the car, font and rear. All
were armed with pistols and there
seemed to be one hundred and fifty in
the crowd. Chief Parish rushed to the
door, closed it and heid the knob. In
twinkiing he was pushed aside, and
the mob entered the Car. Sheriff Watts
had a similar experience in the rear of
the Car.
The crowd then seized the negro and
hustled him, along with Mr.. Parish,
outside of the car, where iaey bound
Mr.. Farish's hands / .hc meantime,
Mr.. Watts was ple.dilg with the mob
to let the law teke - Course.
n. I,p,.e tbn ro1o :
form rope was thrown oyer bis head
and he was carried about forty yards to
a small locust tree. He was asked if
be wished TO pray. He replied. "Be-
fore God, 1 am innocent" Some re-
ports declare that he avowed his guilt,
and hoped to DO forgiven, The rope
was thrown over limb, and the niiser.
able wretch was drawn up. Assoon as
he was elevated the crowd emptied
their pistols into his body, probably
forty shots entering it.
When it became evident that James
was dead the crowd dispersed, leaving
the body hanging on the tree.
The people ia the city, before the
train came, heard rumors of the inten-
ton of the mob to lynch James at the
crossing, and number of persons start
ed fer That point, but few reached it
before the deed was done. Among
these was the brother of the young
lady, who arrived about ten minutes
after the hanging, aud empted his
pistol into the body.
The grand jury were still in session
and had reached the conclusion to
bring in true bill just as the first news
of the lynchinC reached the city.
