RUSHING TROOPS FORWARD.
Now that Gen. Miles Is Mt the Front, Thing
are Moving Lively.


New York. June IA special to the
Times from Washington says:
Signs are multiplying here which
confirm, even in the minds of the most
cautious observers, the hurry orders to
the troops at Tampa, which have been
current for the last few days. The
circumspection of the responsible menu
bers OF the war administration pre-
vents the exact nature of those or
ders from becoming known. That ev-
cry effort is being made by all branches
of the department to get troops ready
to move from Tampa at very early
day is beyond question. Every avail
able soldier of the regular army not
actually set aside for duty has been
sent to Tampa. Every regular regi-
mcnt has been sent there except the
18th. 18th and 23rd infantry, which are
going to the Philippines, the Third
cavalry and Fourth artillery, bound for
the same destination, and the Fifth in
fantry, which IL distributed all along
the Gulf coast, with n detail at Atlanta
doing guard duty. The mobilization
was completed when the camp of reg
ulars at Mobile was broken up last
week and the men transferred to Tam
pa.

from army headquarters at Tampa that
one million rounds OF ammunition

Saturday night. So promptly was this

afternoon and delivered atTampa with

than the mails. At the same time n

These are incidents in the proceedings
of the last few days which indicate
an accession of haste at the front since
General Miles reached there.
Another indication of the approach OF
the long deferred forward movement

NEW YORK STOCK REPORT

Metal Quotations-Wool Prices and
Movements-Grain and Pro-
duce-Review of Trade.

New York Feb. 1.-The stock market
to-day had a load of liquidation to carry
still heavier than yesterday and there
were fewer prominent stocks to exercise
a sustaining force by their strength. The
heavy offerings were well absorbed and
net declines are for the most part con-
fined to fractions, but are general. For
a time after the opening there seemed
to be no diminution from yesterdays ac-
tivity. There had been apparently large
accumulation of outside orders over night,
and London was also buyer of stock.
This demand was satisfied, however,
without effecting any advance i'll prices,
the offerings being very large. Later
prices began TO yield under the weight
of continued offerings, but the pressure
was not great and the market fell into
dullness, holders apparently being content
to await a rally to continue the liquida-
ton.
The rallies were helped by the contin-
uing strength of number of stocks, es-
pecally Union Pacific and all its securi-
ties. The strength of those was held dur
ing the day and Union Pacific closed at
the highest at u net advance of over a
point.
Western Union and General Electric
showed periods of strength. but the or
der of the day was profit-taking. and this
tendency extended even to Northern Pa
cific preferred, upon which there was a
quarterly dividend of / per cent. de-
clared late in the day,
London bought some stocks early in
this market, but sold more later, which
probably had an influence in giving a
somewhat higher tone to the market. 1t

received in New York is due to remit

of the second 10 per cent. installment of

called for tomorrow, but most of 1t was
made to-day.
In the bond market the Kansas Pacific
consols were the most conspicuous fea-
ture. with an advance of S3s per cent. TO

advance from one to three points on the
belief that they would be included in the

.Great Falls. Feb. 1.-Unless some
thing or some one soon interveneS,
Frank Stanley viii soon be taken to
the poor house, there to await the
coming of the end of a life misspent.
Some years ago he had the frame and
the constitution of a Hercules. To-
day he is more like a horse turned out
on the range to die after years of hard
work and ill-usage. He has become
demented from the excessive use of
morphine. There is hardly enough
space left on his hide free from sores
in which to insert the needle of his hy-
podermic syringe and he has from be-
ing an object of suspicion to the police
become an object for the deepest pity
They say that he can hardly live
through the winter. In the past he has
been a tinhorn gambler and a sure
thing man. Several times he has been
arrested for running victims into a rob-
bing scheme, and came to this city
from Benton, where he had been held
on that charge. OF late he has been
frequenting the beer halls, where, in the
boxes, he has been able to catch mo-
mentary snatches of sleep. He is said
to be covered with sores and is moth
ing but living subject for the morgue.

DUPUYER NEWS.

only to look on for minute.
The marriage of c. H. Dunlap and

The prospective bride was born and
passed her childhood at Fort Benton
and the groom is an old timer in Cho-

The soreness of the officers is inten-
sified by the fact that at the last term

forgotten anything in his old age.
started out to give a hippodrome race
on Central avenue free to all comers.
He got in and standing on the floor
of his wagon put the braid to his
horses and hurried them down the
course, with occasional whoops that
brought every one to the curb. His ex-
hibition chariot race ended at the cor
ner of Central avenue and Park drive,
just opposite the Standard office. In
maning the turn the pole struck d
fence on the opposite side of the street
and Doc described a parabolo
through the air and over his horses
heads. Had he been sober he would
have been instantly killed. AS II was
he got up Immediately without help and
cheerfully began to cuss his horses.
BY that time officer Sheehy arrived
and took him to the station. Doc OBJ
iected, saying that it was not half as
fast as he had driven on the streets
of Helena, and the officers argument
that that town was comparatively de-
serted did not relieve the situation at
all. Conner was booked at the station
for drunk and fast and furious driving,
and tonight he is making life burden
for the hoboes who are unfortunate
enough to be his fellow prisoners.

Miss Laughlin Sets IA Precedent by Win

Miss Abagail II. Laughlin is one of
the most widely known students Cor
nell university ever had, her proml-
nence being due TO her skill in debate.
She is hailed by her associate goods
as the establisher of a brand new pre-
cedent at the Ithaca institution.
The young woman not only defeated
varsity man in the memorial prize
debate, but she has been selected as
one of eight out of 1000 students To
make the final test of excellence. She
is the only woman who has ever gained
this distinction in Cornell. The men do
not know what to think about il. The
idea of a Sage college student being
chosen as one of the eight immortais
never entered the head of a male stu
dent. They would have thought as Sc
riously about putting girl on the var
sity football team or in the crew.
Miss Laughlin is a graduate of Vel

liant young woman. She entered the
law department at Cornell and will be
graduated this year She founded tile

"A Cniminal's Confession Not Sufficient to
Establish His Guilt.

, Great Falls, Feb. Another pris-
soner, this time a self-confessed thief,
has been turned loose in the COM
smunity. The hearing in the habeas
corpus proceedings instituted for the
benefit of Ensign Wright resulted this
afternoon in the issuance of perma-
snent writ. Wright is the man who took
bullion, according to his own story,
from the Boston & Montana smelter
until he had accumulated about $40
worth of it. Then he made a crack at
Officer Sheehy about the middle OF De-
cember desiring that the officer stand
in with him and they could make a
good thing out of 1t. The officer stood
in with Wright just enough to get him
in a tight place, when he confessed to
rhalf dozen people that he had stolen
The bullion. He had a preliminary
hearing at which he pleaded not guilty
and these things We're brought out in
the testimony. The examining magis-
trate bound him over to the district
court, and in default of bonds he was
remanded to the custody of the sheriff
to await trial. In that interval his at
torneys instituted habeas corpus pro-
ceedings, alleging as their chief matter
that if guilty at all he was guilty of
petty, and not grand, larceny, in that
he had not taken bullion of sufficient
value at any one time to amount to
the value of $50. The point on which he
was discharged was incidental in the
case. The court held that a corpus de-
licti had not been established and that
the prisoners admission on the subject
was merely corroborative and not prin-
cipal testimony
To say that the officers are disap-
pointed at the result does not express
it. In speaking of the matter one of
them said tonight: 1t. does not seem
to be much use in chasing criminals
in this county. The next man who tells
me that he is guilty of committing u
: crime, no matter if it be that of muir
