A Wild RUSH OF WATERS
A Strange Flood Comes Down
Missoula Gulch.
WASHED OUT
r. w. BiacA ! Lots Go a-Flying To-
ward the Flats-May Have Been
Due 20 a ~Cloudburst Near
Walkerville.

There was a Wild rush of water down
Missoula gulch sometime during the
early hours Of yesterday and poo,lo
living in that %aristocratic section
thought for a time that the world was
coming TO an end and that IL was all
on. There was a perceptible movement
in real estate all along the gulch. and
F. w. Blackford found sections of his
lots scattered all the way from Quartz
street down to the Butte Reduction
works.
There was only a little rain Thurs
day night. and that is what makes the
Hood a strange thing. 1t is not be-
ieved that rain enough fell to tear
things up in such a way. but il is
rather likely that there was a cloud
burst up near Walkerville somewhere.
which caused an unusual bulk of water
to conn down the gulch and mix things
the way il did.
for several weeks past Mr.. Black
ford has been engaged in filling up his
lots in the gulch in the neighborhood of
Granite n Quartz streets. Mr.. BLACK
FORD acquired these lots i'm 1893. the CITY
retaining an easement for a sewer
through them. Lately Mr.. BIackford
decided to fill up these lots to a level
with the street and put buildings on
them. For several weeks past dirt has
been hauled to he gulch and the lots
nave gradually risen in height as well
as in value until Thursday night. when
-Whoopl bang'-they were wiped ont
OF existence. and the n~ew-fangled Co
lumbia street resumed its old name of
Missoula gulCh.
~
The Milling Of the lots had caused
some accumulation of water. and this
at loO O'Clock yesterday morning was
reinforced by the deluge that came
down from further up the gulch. Soon
the gulch north of Granite street and
up as far as Quartz became a seething
lake. The water rose until il reached
the 1t filled j. II. Steele's
cellar with six or eight feet of choicest
gulch water that he didn't want. and
Mr.. Steele declares he is going to sue
the city for damages. When the water
reached The level of Granite street il
Just poured over the street and down
into the gulch again on the other side.
Several feet of the storm culyert was
also torn away, and the real estate was
gradually washed through the culvert
down below.
Between Granite and broadway an
other big lake formed. Here the rest
OF the lots were washed away and the
Broadway culvert had sections knocked
of it. The Park street culvert was
injured. People living on the banks
OF the gulch near Granite street were
concerned until the waters be-
gan to subside.
The damage to the storm culvert is
about $500. 1t was four feet i'm diam
eter' or -four feet six inches in the clear

The Watch Trade

New York, Sept. "A special to the
tribune from Washington saws: There is
a good deal in Consul Adolph l.. Franken-
thals report from Berne concerning the
SWISS and American watch trade rivalry
IN Japan to encourage American manu-
~tacturers. His letter is dated July 70 and
lhcloses the translation of the Swiss con-
SUI generals report to his government. in
which important admissions are heard. In
1876 Switzerland's export was equal 70
that OF the United States. but in 1897 the
latter gained. Mr.. ~Frankenthal saws that
the reason was either that there was
greater push on the part of the Americans
or that there was considerable reduction
IN the prices. The reason is notable either
way, as showing American ability I'm a
Held In which "A few years ago the Swiss
enjoyed pre-eminence over all other ma
tions.
Mr.. Frankenthal admits. however. that
while the United States takes the lead I'm
the export of parts of watches and other
materials, Switzerland is far ahead i'm tho
of good watches. The con-
SUI general, Ritter, notes that the two
Japanese factories, one at Osaka, which
imports movements and rough cases from
the united States. and another in Toxic
which is superintendent by Japanese who
learned the trade in Switzerland and pro-
pose TO import parts of watches. are not
likely to give competition.

Cannot Allow DiferentiaIs.

Washington. Sept. 1.-THE Interstate
commerce commission i'm the Canadian
Pacific passenger rate case decided the
Canadian Pacific is not entitled to the
d"ifferential passenger rates contended
for.
The Canadian Pacific contended for a
dlfferential rate between Eastern points
ana tho Pacific coast. The case is one of
the most important before the commis-
sion for a long time, the American roads
and the Canadian Pacific having been en-
gagged six months or more i'm war over
traffic between the East and West. The
commission, however, states that IT has
no power to allow or disallow the differ
entail in dispute, and in conclusion saws:
1T must be distinctly understood we do
not recommend a settlement of this con-
troversy by the making of any agree
ment involving arbitration or otherwise
which is i'm violation of the antitrust Law
as interpreted by the United States SUI
preme court. Such feature of the past
or future history of this controversy
as may in our judgment render appropri-
ate any statement or recommendation TO
congress, will be presented in our annual
report to that body"
The orders made by the commission
heretofore regarding the case are left in
force.

Another case of a man 10

against the other fellow because he got
the worst of it came up last evening.
Harry Jude, who said he was a cook
and hailed from Utah, appeared at the
police station in a badly battered up
condition n complained that Jack
Ledford and two companions had as
saulted him in Pete Hansen's saloon in
Galena street and after knocking him
down with a beer bottle had robbed him
of $40. Knowing Ledford's bad reputa-
ton and judging from Jude's appear
ance his story was true, Ledford was nj
once hunted up and arrested. but his
two alleged companions could not be
found.
Soon after Ledford's arrest, the Off
GERS learned from a reputable citizen
who happened to see the that
jude and a companion were drunk and
went into Hansen's saloon with the
avowed intention of cleaning il out.
Ledford and his companion accepted the
challenge and Jude and his primer were
a badly used up pair of fighters when
the fight was over. The man who in
formed the police of this part of the
story aid he witnessed the whole af-
fair and that no money was taken
from Jude. When the police heard this
the charge against Ledford was reduced
to fighting n the arrest of Jude on the
same charge was ordered.

MOBILE, Ala, May 3.-The American
bark John r. %Stanhope, is in port from
Honduras. Since she left Mobile last time
the vessel has been in Manzanillo on the
southeast coast of Cuba, which port Capt.
P. v. Marshal left on March 26, and the
master tells a surprising story of the mil
itary conditions existing there, being veri-
fled by the mate, Thomas Coburn. A caval-
ryman who could converse in good English,
told them thai there were 10000 Spanish
soldiers in the city and that 800 had died
during the week the Stanhope was there, of
neglect and want. From the same source
Captain Marshall learned that the whole OF
the troops were so discontented with their
treatment that they would willingly go over
to the insurgents, but the relief of freedom
and sufficient food was denied them because
the insurgents distrusted them and had re-
fused all overtures for such a union. The
troops were quartered in the streets anG
at night slept under verandas and in door

from the citizens. but it was refused them
and they were powerless to enforce it. The
rations for a day consisted of barley water,
