FRANCE AND ITALY.
Long Standing Friction Removed by a
Commercial Treaty.

Long Standing Friction Removed by q
Commercial Treaty.
Paris. Nov. 23.-It was quite unex-
pectedly announced this afternoon that
commercial Treaty has been concluded
between France and Italy. granting
mutually favored treatment except for
silk goods, which will remain subject
to the maximum tax. A bill embody-
ing the agreement will be submitted
Immediately to the chamber of depu-
ties. The government also introduced
bill in the chamber today modifying
the wine duties favorably to Italy.
The negotiations that have eliminated
in these arrangements have been on
foot for two years, but nobody believed
that definite agreement was pending.
It is believed that the Fashoda affair
was instrumental in inducing France to
grant the necessary concessions, though
it is noteworthy that the silk duties,
which caused the breaking of the treaty
in 1887, remain almost unchanged.
The negotiations have been conducted
with the utmost secrecy. The effect of
the concessions involved is not vet
known. but it is expected that they will
have an important political influence
for the removal of long-standing fric-
tion between the two countries. The
treaty, it is noticed, was concluded DUR
ing the absence of Emperor William
from Germany, and there is much
speculation regarding it's probable re-

HY STONES STORY.
Explorer Tells a Racy Tale of Fire and
Firewater.

Firewater.
Vancouver, B. c., Nov. 23.-Hy
Stone, formerly United States govern
ment explorer in Alaska, met 600
would-be Klondikers returning from
the Edmunton route, at the juncture of
the Mackenzie and Laird rivers. Those
who returned by way of Laird river
have reached Vancouver in safety after
passing through great peril.s, Stone ac-
companied them. and it is alleged that
on the second night they camped at the
foot of a cliff rising 500 feet sheer from
the river. Natural gas was escaping
from the sides of the cliff. About
midnight, SO it is stated, the sides of
the cliff broke forth in flames, the fire
being started by-hostile Indians of the
Siwash tribes. The natives appeared
in war paint, and demanded whisky,
which the prospectors did not have.
For three days the demand was repeat
ed, when the Indians fred volley at
the whites, which was returned, and
the Siwashes fed. Stone says he noti-
fed the government, but nothing was
done. He did not know any of the
white men.

CANNOT CROSS RESERVATION
Work Stopped on Northern
Pacific at Lapwai.
The Engineers Say They Will Walt
for a Permit and Settle Right-of-
Way Claims in Advance.

Lewiston. Idaho, Nov. 23. The
Northern Pacific let contract to Wren
& Greenough. of Montana, for the con-
struction of a section of road on Lapwai
creek. The agents of these contractors
arrived last week, and began prepara-
tions for grading roadbed along the
narrow Lapwai valley. This valley is
all settled by Indians, except a half
mile adjacent to the Clearwater river.
and the present line of the Northern
Pacific road. The Indians hold these
homes very sacred. as they were inher-
tied from their fathers and then allot-
ed to them by the government. They
protested against trespass, although
the railway agents offered to purchase
the right of way through every holding
and the engineers say they had no in
tention of proceeding without legal
titles to the land appropriated. How
ever, excitement ran high when the
large force of graders appeared upon the
scene. Indian Agent Fisher also pro-
tested against the trespass upon the
government land without due authority
from tie interior department..
These conditions were reported to the
government, and it is believed an order
was asked placing the military at the
disposal of the agent. to be used to
eject the railroad force if necessary.
The officers of the railroad company
say the excitement was uncalled for,
that they never entertained the inten-
tion Of proceeding without first secur-
ing all the right of way through proper
authority. In the meantime large
force is waiting for orders to begin
grading.
The engineers say they will wait for
the permit from the government. and
they will satisfy individual claims for
right of way before they begin. The
Indians, whose inter ests are involved,
are intelligent, and they will be guided
in the matter entirely by the agent, in
whom they have implicit confidence.
and to whom they have appealed for
protection in their legal rights. There
could be no demand for troops other
than to protect the rights of the govern
ment and the Indian wards. The call,
if made for this purpose, was from |
misapprehension of the purpose of the
railroad company.
Lapwai creek is stream flowing from |
the southwark and joining the Clear
water river about 10 miles east of |
Low:Eton. The line mentioned III the
foregoing dispatch is not the main
projected line of the Nothern Pacific up
the Clearwater and across into Mon
tana. but branch to tap the heavy
tim her Of the Craio mountains and tho
rich farming lands of the reservation
and Camas prairie. The promptness
with which grading crews get at work
shows how keen is the competition of
the present railroad rivalry.
