Mrs Bessie Tanning Sentenced for Petit
Larceny.
Great Falls, March 3.-Mrs. Bessie
Tanning this afternoon pleaded guilty
to a charge of petit larceny before
Judge Hawkins and was sentenced to
six months Imprisonment in the coun-
ty jail She received the sentence and
lecture which the judge gave her along
with the sentence without moving a
muscle. In fact, one might nave
cracked a walnut on her face without
disturbing it's composure.
The crime which she committed has
already been told in the Standard. On
the evening of the ed of February,
while eating in Jacob Pfefferley's res
taurant she took a pocketbook from
the pocket of Maud Larson's coat
| which hung over the table at when
| she was eating. The pocketbook con-
tanned a diamond ring and some sill
yer. The ring she gave to man about
| town and it was recovered by the po-
lice, the man being material witness
| for the state. She tried hard to fasten
| the crime on man whom the police
| proved was out of the city the even
| ing the theft was committed. RMS
| fact was not overlooked by the magls-
trate in fixing the sentence, and Bessie
no doubt will be a little more cunning
/ the next time she is caught.

CHICAGO MARKETS.

Chicago. March 3.-Wheat started with
a decided upturn in July. that option
opening I5m2c higher at s1l2m9iAc. The
bulls Yesterday close was apparently still
prevailing and enough of the early news
favored buyers to give the market firm
tone at the start The advances. however.
induced a lot of selling. and Influenced
by bearish news the whole trade for a
time favored the selling side. For half
an hour or so there was considerable
pressure put on the price of July dropping

Liverpool was weak and showed I'D de-
cline California reported crop prospects
excellent after the recent rains there ana
primary receipts were heavy at 100000
bushels.
About an hour after the opening the
market again turned. A little support in
July by the most prominent bull interests
brought shorts into the market with
moderate buying orders. Reports from
New York that half the California car
goes afioat have been ordered to the con-
tinent also caused some buying and a
general Improvement IN values ensued
July advancing to 917sc and May to 81 06a4
After II o'clock the trade quoted down
and prices slowly dropped. Selling OF
May by firm which had sold heavily for
two weeks was again prominent all day
and made that end of the market rather
loggy toward the close of the session. AT
ter midday however, July again showed
some snap. Toward the close realizing
mostly by professionals, became toe

under and a gradual decline took place

The Strike Is improving Daiiy anu Isnh-
ming i'll Three Hundred Ounce Ore.
. Great Falls, March 3.-This after
noon a delegation composed of W. J.
Smith, A. d. Edward George 5. Ball
ey. Charles Warmbrod, John Rtchie
and r. Woodmansie came down from
Neihart for the purpose of taking the
encampment degree, /. O. Q. F. One
of the delegat ton, Mr.. Bailey, has re-
Gently bought "A lease on the Queen of
the Hills, the firm name being Cans
& Bailey. Mr.. Bailey said this after
noon to the Standard man that the
strike on the Queen was improving
daily and was running in 300-ounce ore.
The portion of the mine on which he
and his partner are working is to the
east of the strike already reported, but
they are ia the same ore and expect TO
make a good thing from their lease.
To-day a huge specimen OF the ore
weighing $40 pounds and valued at $54
was set up in the window of the office
of w. G.. Conrad and to-day has called
out much admiration from passers and
visitors Brittle silver and pyrites of
copper. rich in silver crop out all over
it, and the big lump is most excel
lent advertisement of the silver mines
of Cascade county. The rock is spar
formation, and crystals of spar and
silver compounds alternate in the lump.
1t has been suggested that ii be sent
to the Omaha exposition to be placed
with the Montana exhibit. The citi-
zens of Great Falls generally rejoice
at the good fortune of Mr. Conrad al
most as he himself does. They nat
urally feel that a man who has acted
as squarely as he has in the matter
of the Northwestern bank failure is en-
titled to all that fortune brings him.

NEUTRALITY DECREED.
Queen Victoria Issues the Usual Procla-
nation In Such Cases.

London, April 26.--An extraordinary
Issue of the London Gazette. issued Aais
morning, contained the customary roy
al proclamation Of neutrality. defining
the attitude Of British officials and BrIt-
ish subjects during the war helH an
Spain and the United States. II is iden-
tical with the proclamation issued at tn.
time of the war between Japan and
China.
The instructions of the fore gn office
to the admiralty and colonial authori-
ties, regulating the belligerents U.s. OF
British ports. is dated April %. and gives
the bellgerents "A hours to leave.
This accounts for the departure Of the
United States squadron from Hong one
and the orders given to the Spanish tor
pedo boat Audax to leave Queenstown.
Some Of the newspapers here assert
that the rule in regard TO coal being con
traband of war is new; but it is Identical
with Lord Granvilles proclamation of
1870, at the time OF the outbreak Of the
Franco Prussian war, and Identical
with the proclamation issued at the
time of the commencement of hostilities
between emma and Japan prohibiting
supplies being furnished to belligerent
ships except provisions and coal suf-
f1cent to carry a vessel to the nearest
port of her own country, no coal to be
again supplied TO the same ship. with
in three months of the time she had pr
yiously been supplied.
In the house of commons today James
F. Hogan, anti Parnellte. asked the
government leader Mr.. Balfour. whether
Senior Polo y Bernabe the former Span
ish minister at Washington. now in Can
ada. is at liberty To use Toronto as a
base for supplying Spain with nforma
ton, and whether there is any faunda
ton for the suggestion that Senor Bern
abe is accredited to the whole OF America
north of the equator. and that he has
thereby acured a definite status n Can
ada; and generally TO indicate the limi-
tations imposed by precedent and diplo-
matte usage on The activities Of an ex-
minister of a belligerent power who
keeps up a temporary residence In a
British colony"
The dismissal of the United States
squadron from Hong Kong and the ap-
parent severity of the British govern
ment in regard to the United States tor
pedo boat Somers al Falmouth the As
ISOLATED Press hears, were incidents
pre- arranged by American and British
diplomacy. their real object being to
force the Portuguese government To or
der the Spanish fleet to leave the Caps
Verde islands and to prevent other ma
tons, a. a critical moment, from offer
ing similar hospitality.
