The FATE or CHINA.
Colonel DENLY Says the Empire viii Not
he Dismembered.

Detroit, Aug. 29.-ColoneI Charles Den
by. who was minister to China for 13
years, and was relieved from his post but
"A few weeks ago, arrived here yesterday
direct from San Francisco. In an inter-
view Colonel DENLY said:
I'm my opinion China will never be dis
membered among the great powers. as l
do not think the United States, Japan or
England will permit it,
Colonel DENLY said the Chinese trade of
Russia, France and Germany was small
in comparison with that of the United
States and England. Both China and
Japan. Colonel DENLY said, favored the
retention Of the Philippine islands by the
United States. While on the subject
Colonel DENLY took occasion to remark
that Admiral Dewey's victory had added
greatly to the dignity and influence of
his office as United States minister. the
Chinese having heretofore believed the
United States to be a great commercial
nation, incapable of such victories.
Colonel DENLY stated that the famous
battle had much the same effect on Japan.
Hawaiian annexation was something that
Colonel DENLY said he had favored for
some years.

HEAVY TRAINS.
A Larger Amount of Business Is Expected

~ Larger amount of Business Is Expected
Next Month.
Missoula, Aug. 29.-The trains that
are being hauled by the Northern pa
enc railway THIS month have all been
heaNy and the transportation DEPART
ment is already arranging 10 handle
even a larger amount of business for
the next three or four months. The
Wheat crop viii have to be moved and
the fruit business of the line will be un-
usually heavy his fall. The new sys-
TEN OF handling the freight business
Is made easy by the new engines, whose
tremendous capacity continues To ex-
cite the surprise of the old-time rail
road men. These engines are holding
up their record i'm good shape and are
doing an immense amount of business
for the road. The track department
has been hard at work all the spring
and summer I'm improving the condition
of the road, and when the season closes
the result Of their efforts will be seen
IN the readiness with which the heavy
business IL handled.
The record Of the Rocky Mountain
division continues To be excellent.
While II Is true that the overland trains
nave been arriving behind time of late,
II Is true that none of the delay is
caused on this division. The record of
the division for July showed that there
was a net loss of time on the Rocky
Mountain of only an hour and 30 min
utes during the entire month. and dur
ing that time there was one delay of 30
hours caused by the wreck i'm the Iron
Range tunnel. Had il not been for that
the record would have shown that
nearly every train made up time on his
division. The August record should
make even a better showing. II looks
strange from this point of view hat
the loss of time should all occur ON the
level divisions east of here and that
time should be made up on this. which
is one of the hardest divisions on the
whole line. But the record shows that
this Is a fact, and il is not explained.

A TtUT0N'S TALE.

Beer.
Missoula. Aug. 29.-Among the other
troubles that Officer Larson had TO
listen to last night was the tale of woe
old by a German citizen, who has. not
so very remotely. either, been promi-
nent in Salvation army circles. This
Teuton confessed that he had fingered
too long over a keg of beer up the
R~attiesnake, where he had gone to
spend Sunday i'm restful quiet. He had
taken up the keE and two men had
gone with him. He did not know their
names, he said, but they INDUCED with
him in the amber fluid that comes from
the watts of Brewer Martin and had en-
Joyed it, When they had had enough,
or as much as they could get. the Teu-
ton said that they went to sleep. As a
matter of fact, he does not know
whether or not the others went to sleep.
He did, though. He knows that. He
had taken of his coat and vest on ac-
u Of the heat of the afternoon. and
when he Weakened from his comfortable
nap, he found himself alone and minus
his coat and vest. His companions had
taken their leave while he slumbered
and had taken his raiment with them.
In one of his pockets he had a GER
tiicate OF deposit for SIS. and the loss
Of that is what worried him. After
listening to this statement Of sure

forts were not successful.
