Special Dispatch to the standard
Helena, Feb. 2s.-Gallatin valley is to
have new railroad according to some
articles of incorporation filed with the
secretary of state. According to the
articles, the road will be but few
miles long at least for the present The
company that proposes to construct the
line is incorporated under the laws of
the state of Washington. and has
capital stock of 81 600 900, of which
So 00o has been paid up. The incorpora-
tors are w. w. ID. Turner and w. \.
Richie of Spokane. and Frank Hall OF
Milwaukee. The company Is called the
Gallatin Railroad company of Spokane.
1t announces that its terminals anu
lines will be in through the state of

follows:
Commencing at Il point in or near
Three Forks. in said Gallatin county,

A REQUIEM MASS
Celebrated in Baltimore for the Victims
of the Maine Disaster.

of the Maine Disaster.
Baltimore. Feb 2S-A solemn requiem
mass for the repoSe of the souls OF
those who lost their lives through the
destruction of the battleship Maine in
Havana. was celebrated at the cathe-
dral to-day. Cardinal Gibbons made an
address and read the services for the
dead. A number of naval and military
officers were present.
The cardinal said: TOO much praise
cannot be bestowed on the president
and on the members of his cabinet, and
particularly on the secretary OF the
navy and his able assistant, as well as
ON the houses of congress, for the calm
ness and tranquility, the self-control
and the self-possession which they have
exhibited during the fearful ordeal
through which the country mas been
passing in the last few days. 1t needed
only a spark to kindle a great confla-
grafton. and the patient and dignifed
bearing of the executive and legislative
bodies are all the more commendable
in view of the mischievous and intern
perate utteranees of some sensational
newspapers
This nation is too brave. too strong,
too powerful and too just to engage in
an unrighteous or precipitate war; The
only circumstance that would warrant
active hostilities, would be evidence
that the Spanish government connived
at the placing of torpedoes or eXplo-
sives in the harbor of Havana to de-
stroy our vessel. But | do not believe.
and no sane man can believe, that a
chivalric nation would be guilty of such
inhumanity.
An able commission has been APP
pointed by the government to inVesti-
gate the cause of the disaster. Let us
calmly and dispassionately await the
result of their verdict and not antici-
pate their Judgment.

NAVAL MOVEMENTS.
The Pacific Coast Fleet VIII BE Kept
Where II Is.

New York Feb. est has been
decided by the navy department 10 keep
on the Pacific coast the fun force Of
naval vessels now there, says the
Washington correspondent of the Her
aid The department officers recognize
the fact that the strength of the North
Atlantic squadron would be greatly in
creased by attaching the battleship
Oregon TO Rear Admiral Sicard's COM
mand.
But they appreciate the danger of
leaving the Pacific coast without assist
anee Of this class, just as they appreci-
ate the Importance OF defending the
ports by vessels of the monitor type.
There are now stationed on the
Pacific coast the Oregon, the coast de-
Tense vessels Monterey and Monadnock.
and the training ship Adams.
The Oregon. which is at Puget Sound.
will be ordered 10 proceed To san
Francisco harbor, and it is likely her
place in the northern waters will prob
ably be taken by the Monterey. The
department recently directed the Mon
adnock be laid in reserve. hut these
orders have. not been carried out and

Besides these ships the department

PETTlGREW OBJECTED.
He Said the Proposed Treaty Would Give
Canada the Fest of II.

Washington, Feb. Ex-senator Turpie
made an effort in the executive SESSION
of the senate to-day to secure the rlIifi-
cation of the treaty between the United
States and Great Britain locating The
141st meridian as the boundary line be-
tween Alaska and British America, but
failed to succeed because Of objections
made by Senator Pettisrew Senator
Turpie complained that the treaty had
been on the calendar for almost year,
and said the senate owed ii to the eXecu-
tive branch of the government to take
action.
Senator Pettigrew said the treaty
should be amended before it was acted
upon by the senate. He asserted that
in its present shape it was a most es-
Sential concession to Great Britain, and
said if it was accepted without amend
ment. making Mount St. Elias the in
itial point on the south, it would be
found. when too late, that the Canadians
had gotten decidedly the best of the
bargain. Action was postponed.
