ImportationS of Gold.

New York Sept. 21-Reports are cur
rent in Wall street that the importation
of gold from Europe is about to begin.
1t Is said that 100000, or 5000 in gold
has already been purchased in the open
market in London for shipment to New
York. 1t is said that the National City
bank is arranging to bring $500o,000 in
gold from Europe and that Lazard Freres
will probably import a large amount
from Paris. It is stated that with ex-
change on Paris at $40, less sixteenth
for demand. there will be profit in
bringing gold from Paris.
Wednesdays financial quota ton for de-
mand, sterling exchange, was $4.85as. 1t
has been figured that gold can be brought
from London at a profit with the rate
$4.S2h. With call money in London at
11a. and in New York per cent higher,
it is natural that gold should come here,
especially since Europe is heavily indebt-
ed to this country on trade balances.
Money has been growing tighter, not only
here but elseM here, owing to the in
creased use of it in general business.

STATE LABOR COUNCIL
Special to Inter Mountain.

Special to Inter Mountain.
Helena. Mont, Sept. 21-Daniel Nc
Donald. state organizer for Montana, pre-
sented his annual report at the session
OF the state trades and labor council to-
day.
During the year he established fifteen
unions in various parts of the state, four
in Butte. The ranks Of organized labor
in the state now boast of 1900 names.
During the ten months just passed
into history says Mr.. Mcdonald, there
never has ben time in the annals of the
organized labor in the state of Montana
that labor organizations embraced as
large membership as at the present
time. Most every craft and calling is
within the pale of organized labor
The organizer found In instances an in
innate relation between unions and en-
ployers with disposition shown to ami
cably discuss any differences arising.
1.-THE unions with few exceptions" says
the report, ARE IN good healthy condi-
tion, thoroughly harmonious and COM
paratively prosperous, with promising
prospects in store for them and a magni-
ticent field for operation. With good
Judgment wisely applied and prop
erly directed an immense amount of good
can be achieved in the interest of the la
boring people of the state"
The report was adopted. The execu-
tive committee and treasurer also report
ed and these reports were under dis
cussiOn part of the day. j. H. Huseby,
of Helena, who attended the western la
Dor union session in Salt Lake, told the
council In a report OF the results of that
meeting. The session of the council will
hardly end to-day as first anticipated un-
less greater progress is made. So far as
known the differences at the state capitol
have not been presented to the council.
It is not unlikely that the matter will be
presented before adjournment.
Edward Boyce president of the western
federation of miners will arrive from
Missoula tomorrow. 1t is expected that
his coming will result in resolutions or
some action being taken relative to the
manner In which Occur d'Alene miners
were arrested in western Montana and
hurried out of the state without having
a hearing. About seventy-f1ve delegates
are present to-day. The sessions thus
far have been very harmonious.

For Canada First.

Toronto, Sept. 21.-At the Middlesex
county fair at Stra throy, Premier Laurier
said:
There is one question. the Alaskan
boundary, which has proved a stumbling
block to the success of the joint high COM
mission. We have, therefore, stood by
our rights that we have not obtained the
success which we might have expected,
but, gentlemen. there is no one, ! am
sure, in this audience who will regret it
or would express any regret upon it. We
have done our best and if We have done
nothing else, we have stood by the dig
nifty, the honor and the rights of Can
ada. We want 30 be on the very best
terms with our neighbors to the south,
we want to trade with them. But if they
will not trade with US, our hearts will not
be broken by the fact. We can live with
out them. We can prosper without them,
though I make no secret that there are
many things upon which I, for one, would
be glad to have better relations with
them. But il the price is to be paid by
the sacrifice of Canadian honor we will
have none Of that price, and We will
continue to do as we are doing now
paddle our own canoe. We want to have
the very best relations with our neigh
bors. but while that is our aim, our aim
above all things is. Canada first, Canada
last and Canada always"

Her Father Objects.

Chicago, Sept. 21.-The Times Herald
says that Prince Alexis karageorivich Of
Servia is suitor for the hand of Miss
Mabele Swift, only child of f. c. Swift
of the house of Swift & Co., the big meat
packers. A radical objection by Mr.
Swift to ratifying the choice of his daugnr
ter's heart is the danger at some future
time of her being proclaimed merely u
morganatic wife in case of the elevation
of Prince Alexis to the throne of Servia
The American millionaire remembers the
fate of Betsy Patterson, whose marriage
to Jerome Bonaparte brought SO much iii
into her life He therefore threatens to
6isinherit his daughter if she persists in
her love for the prince. Miss Swift is
about % years of age. Prince Alexis is
over 10.

WHERE HEAVY FIGHTING

Pretoria, Sept. 21.-Gen. Joubert. the

The situation is serious Probably
the heaviest fighting would occur on the

London, Sept. 21.-The speech OF Sir
William Vernon Harcourt, former liber-

red rags to the war at any price party.
The Cape papers declare the action Of
the members of parliament amounts to
treason and the same terms are applied
to Sir William Vernon Harcourt's re-
maks by English anti-Boer papers.
Those who claim the situation has not
yet passed the Rubicon Of pacific negoti-
ations see in President Kruger's answer
to the Afrikanders a genuine desire to
avoid hostilities.

POINTS ABOUT CHEESE.
Many of the Imported Kinds Do Not
Meet with Favor I'm This
Country.

There are great many families in
this country who could improve. their
tables without adding materially to
their expenses, by introducing a yari-
ETY. of cheese in the menu. A great deal
of the cheese sold here as foreign Is
made in this country by foreigners
who understand the methods of their
own country. This cheese is often equal
in every way to the imported product.
but it would not bring the same price
if sold as American.
There is a prejudice in this country
against many delicious cheeses which
do not have the orthodox odor to which
American dairywomen are accustomed.
1t is not probable that the coarser va
rieties of cheese, with their strong
odor, will ever be agreeable to refined
taste, but there are many others which
are delicious, even though they have
not the regulation odor of dairy cheese.
The best English cheese. like Stilton
which commands the highest price in
market, owes its excellence to the care
and time taken to ripen it. Two years
is taken to mature superior Stilton.
Cheddar is mild, delicious English
cheese, made from new milk with all its
cream. The familiar Edam cheese is
excellent. The delicious French Brie
cheese is made in this country. 1t is a
mild cheese. Camembert is favorite
dinner cheese, somewhat similar to a
good Swiss cheese.-N. Y. Tribune.

IN THE HEART OF AFRICA.
Lord Exitchener's Tribute to the,
Energy of American Bridge
Makers.

Ambassador Choate transmits to-
Secretary Hay from London the speech
delivered by Lord Kitchener at the
opening of the bridge over the Atbara
river, in the Soudan. In the course of
his remarks Lord Kitchener said: "As
regards this magnificent bridge, 1
think we may fairly claim that it is
a record achievement. 1t was only well
into last October that the credits were
authorized for the extension of the line
to Khartoum. The sites of the bridge
had then 10 be determined, the boring,
soundings, and sections of the river
had to be completed, and eight solid
double piers to carry the superstruc-
ture had to sunk down to the rock be-
low the river bed to meet the Atbara
food, which arrived % days earlier than
our experience led us to expect. But
this did not catch us mapping. Owing
to the energy displayed, the piers were
completed more than Is days earlier
than was thought possible. When the
first wave came it passed harmlessly,
carrying away only the temporary
bridge by which we push on railway
construction to the southwark. In No
vember and December every effort was
made to place the order for the super
structure in England, but it was found
impossible for British firms to supply
so big an undertaking in The time al
lowed. The matter is one of consider
able regret to me personally. ] think
it demonstrates the relations between
labor and capital in our country are
not such as to give confidence to capital
lists to induce them to run the risk of
establishing great up-to-date work
/ shops with the plant necessary to.enable
Great Britain to maintain her proud
position as the first constructing ma
ton of the world. Well, where English
men have failed / am delighted TO find
our cousins across the Atlantic have
stepped in. The opening of this bridge
to-day is due to their energy and abil-
ity and the power they possess in SO
marked degree of turning out works
of this magnitude in less time than can
be done by anyone else. congratulate
the American foremen and workinen
on the excellent success which has
crowned their efforts in the erection
of this bridge in the heart of Africa, far
from their homes, during the hottest
months of the year, and depending Sole
! ~ upon the labor of men speaking q
foreign tongue" Washington Post,
