ASSAULTED A WOMAN.
Melveney Says That She Began the At
tack on Him.

LOOMS, Wash, March 3O.-H. o. Mel
veney, formerly of Los Angeles. Cal,
was fined SIS and costs to-day for as
justification of his act. Melveney said
that conspiracy existed between Mrs.
Underwood and Calhoun and jenkins
to try and beat him out of a contract
under which he is operating Mrs. IN
derWoods cattle ranch. His version of
the assault is that he had endeavored
to induce Mrs. Underwood to have a
settlement of their accounts, but that
she had refused. On the day of the as
sault she finally consented to talk the
matter over, and they had some
words.
Mrs. Underwood. he says, it a tall
strong woman, weighing over 300
pounds, and accustomed to hard
physical labor. She lost her temper,
started to leave the room and fell over
chair. She arose. black with rage
made a rush at him and tried to choke
him. He struck her two or three times.
She STUMBLED over rug and fell, her
head striking onethe piano legs, cutting
it badly.
He got her on the bed, washed her
face. tied up her head and after some
talk started for a doctor for her. After
getting the doctor he returned Then
considering the whole matter he de-
cided to drop the whole matter in dis
gust and quit. He got his horse and
rode over to British Columbia. When
he learned that a warrant had been is
sued he promptly returned to meet the
charge

ish and American claims that Mataafa
was contravening the Samoan act.
But. the correspondents informant
points out the contravention was not
specified. and the government presumes
that if the act was really infringed Herr
Rose, the German consul, would also
have protested, as his government had
instructed him to strictly conform to
the act.
The assertion that Herr Rose pro-
tested against the deposition of the pro-
visional government is doubted here,
as it is claimed Herr Rose was instruct
ed not to identify himself with Mataafa
more closely than the representatives of
the other powers.
There is considerable curiosity in this
city as to the effect the outbreak will
have upon the attitude of the United
States and Great Britain. but the view
remains that the final settlement will
in no way be changed by the outbreak
of hostilites, but will be managed by
the joint action of the three powers.
The semi-otficial Post comments
calmly upon the new situation. and says
that Germany will remain neutral.

tied by the Commission.
Special Dispatch to the Standard.
Helena, March 30.-The capitol build
ing commission to-day decided the
question of the quarry from which the
stone to be used in the state capitol
snail come. After thoroughly canvass
ing the matter, examining all of the
dl1ferent kinds of stones presented and
taking into consideration the capability
of the different quarries to meet the
demands to be made for stone when
work on the new building is running
full blast the commission decided that
the stone from tn" Columbus quarry
was what Is wanted, 1t dark gray
sandstone. 1t stood satisfactorily the
various acid and other tests to which
1t was subjected. Contractor Soss will
at once make arrangements to COM
mence shipping the stone to Helena
that he may begin work upon the walls
of the building as soon as the weather
will permit. The Columbus quarry is
owned by Ben Hagan, 1t is situated
20 or 30 miles west Of Billings, in tie
western portion of Yellowstone county,
about one mile from the Northern Pa
cific tracks. There are some buildings
in Columbus that were built of the
stone. They Were constructed several
years ago and the commission found
that they had stood the ravages of the
weather splendidly. The Northern Pa
cific will undoubtedly build a spur to
the quarry in order to expedite the ship
ment of the stone to Helena. The com
mission also decided to-day that the
corner stone of the capitol will be laid
July 4. The architects and the contrac-
tor We're notified to make arrangements
to that end. The commission will fix
the programme for the event at a later
meeting. There will probably be suit
able speeches by the governor and other
prominent citizens of the state, with the
usual ceremonies of depositing in cav
ity in the corner stone documents, coins,
etc

ATTACKING ENGLAND,
Trying to Create Ill Blood Between Ger
many and the United States.


many and the United States.
Berlin, March 30.--Replyng to the al
legations Of the Daily Chronicle of Lon
don that the United States ambassador
here. Andrew d. White, has been pro-
German in his handling of the Samoan
question, the Cologne Gazette says
seni-otfically:
For some time we have noticed that
the efforts of the English press to create
bad blood between the United States
and Germany have again taken fresh
impulse from the latest developments
at Samoa. Not to mention other in
stances which show the mood of the
English press, the London Times a few
days ago circulated a false story to the
effect that Germany was intending to
withdraw from the Berlin treaty. Now
the Daily Chronicle claims to know as a
fact that the United States ambassador
Mr.. White. has aroused great dissatis-
his handling of the Samoan question
principally from the German stand
point
TT would be honoring the Daily
Chronicle too much if we We're to en-
deavor to protect the American ambas-
sador against the absolutely improved
accusation of a serious violation of his
duty. For, it is sufficient to say again,
how bitterly and with what talent in
inventins false reports the English
press is pursuing everything which is
suspected of being apt to foster the
good and friendly relations between the
United States and Germany

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.
Trade in the United States Is Growing
MarvelOusly

MarvelOusly.
London. March 31.-The Statist this
week takes an optimistic view of the bus
mess outlook here and in America 1t
points out that the activity of trade
throughout the world is due to calmer DO
litical conditions, and, referring to Amer
lea, 1t says:
speaking broadly, trade in the United
states is growing marvelously. and is
likely to continue to grow unless the new
crops prove very bad indeed. or something
altogether unforeseen occurs.
There is more uncertainty respecting
