a suspension of the rules. A resolution
was also adopted requesting the COR
poration counsel to report whether the
franchises of the company could not be
forfeited if ii failed to run cars on all

THE ALDEN EARTHQUAKES.
The Loss Of LIEc Estimated ut Fifteen
Hundred.

Constantinople, October at is
now estimated that 1900 persons per-
ished in the earthquakes in Asia
Minor, around Aidin. The first shock
occurred at o'clock in the MORN
ing of September 20, and lasted forty
seconds. The effects were appalling.
Whole villages were completely de-
stroyed. The earthquake was felt as
far as Scio, Mitylene and Smyrna.
The latest advices from the stricken
area showed that men, women and
children were buried in the ruins of
their dwellings, before they realized
their danger. Numbers Of bodies still
lie beneath the debris. About 500 per-
sons were killed at Sarakeni and some
500 at Denizli, where three-fourths Of
the buildings fell. There was proper.
tionate loss OF life In many OF the
smaller villages.
The disturbance has not yet sub
sided, although it's strength appears
to be spent. The shocks continue all
most daily, but with no great violence.
The population is encamped in the
open.
One consequence Of the earthquake
is the subsistence Of the level OF the
Adm district by two yards. Sui
phurous springs burst out in the val
ley Of Noander, and the country be-
tween Adm and DenRli became full
of crevices. out OF which rushed black,
muddy water with sufficient volume to
wash away flock Of 1000 sheep. !

Washington, October IA despatch
from General Otis has been received at

of his meeting with the insurgent en-
,oys. General Otis said the interview
with Agulnaldo's representatives in-
dlcated that the leaders were ma

tory in Montana.
To anyone who understands the geog-

trict and has watched the number and
extent of recent purchases of timber
lands all over the district, it is evident
there will be some tall scrapping in the

or more the Big Blackfoot Milling COM
pany was the king of the forest north OF

years things have changed, for within the
latter period Wisconsin lumber men nave
purchased several hundred acres of these
timber lands and now w. A. Clark IS

ciated by those who are opposed to MIN.
1t is understood Mr.. Clark has no saw
mills to cut the timber he has purchased
and proposes to purchase and does not
want any for the reason that timber Will
be king" in Montana in a few years
and his investment in timber lands at
this time is only wise and profitable
specula ton. 1t is also claimed that Mr..
Clark is taking lively interest in the
lumber interests of Montana and will do
what he can to prevent illegal timber cut
ting. which is alleged to have been in
practice in many parts of the state during
the past. People who claim to know say
it will be interesting to watch the lumber
