Three Men on a Locomotive.

From the PittSburg Post.
Locomotive firemen are giving a
great deal of attention to the discus
sion of the plan advocated by some of
the technical journals of having two
firemen on each locomotive. 1t is
claimed that the big locomotives now in
use have almost double the hauling
capacity of the engines in use several
years ago. and consequently consume
more coal and require more careful
firing. This is particularly true Of the
fast, heavy express engines, when
burn an enormous quantity of coal.
The managers insist that the object
of the heavy engines is to economic
the cost of transportation. and that re-
auctions in rates and increase in taxa
ton as we'll as various other causes
have conspired to compel them to re-
duce expenses to the minimum and at
the same time haul heavier trains, ana
that the wages of the extra firemen
would counteract the advantages or
the heavier engines to ~erat extent.

BRAKEMAN SHOT HIM.
That Is the Tale Shovel Told to the
Authorities.

A young man, IS or 10 years of age, who
gave the name of Shovel. presented him
self at DR.. Wells hospital last evening to
have a wounded hand dressed. and told
a rather remarkable story of the manner
in which he claimed to have received his
wound.
Shovel said he had been on his way to
one of the mining camps in jefferson
county on Tuesday. and al Whitehall he
boarded a freight train 20 steal a ride
A brakeman came along WAC ordered
him off, but the train was going so fast
he was afraid to jump and refused,
whereupon the brakeman pulled a gun
and deliberately fired at him, the bullet
passing through his hand. The train was
then stopped and he was put off. He COM
planned to the authorities at Whitehall
and had the brakeman arrested. The
trial took place at Whitehall a once and
the brakeman was acquitted, it being
held that he tShoveD had no right on the
train. and that therefore the brakeman
was justified The wound in the young
mans hand is a very severe one.
The story told by Shovel is regarded as
one of those to which "cum grano sails
applies. &S%F

IRRIGATION WORK
Now in Process of Construction on the
Crow Reservation.

To the Editor of the Standard
Dear Sir: In an article published by
the Standard under date of May 81, 1899
rela ting to an investigation of the official
conduct of Indian Agent Becker reference
was made to the irrigation work on the
Crow reserve.
AS your reporter has undoubtedly been
misinformed in regard to this work,
beg the privilege of submitting to your
valuable paper few facts concerning the
nature and character of the work in
question. Exclusive of the large canal
now in process of construction and of
which IL miles have already been COM
peted, nine bitches have already been
constructed. all of which are built in the
best possible manner and are now carry
ing water for irrigating purposes The
work on thes bitches has been done al
most entirely by the Indians, no contract
labor being allowed by the department.
The money used for this purpose belong
ed to the Indians and reverting back to
them through their labor on the canals.
In building these ditcnes about 1900 900
yards of material have been moved and
"A gates. 20 bridges and five fumes, being
more than 800 feet long and averaging 30
feet in height IA cast-iron culverts laid in
masonry, have also been placed under the
grade of the various bitches for the pur-
pose Of carrying away the food waters in
the spring of the year without injury to
the canals. In fact, there has been more
stone and iron used in this work than
on any other work of a similar character
in this part of the country. The head
gate of the Big Horn canal il a solid ma
sonry structure with iron gates raised
by hand wheels which work on ball-bear-
ings, probably as fine a structure of its
kind as can be found in the country to-
day.
The bottonm width of this canal is 30
feet. carrying capacity 4OS24 miners inch
es, and it is calculated to irrigate 5000
acres of land.
Exclusive of the bitches already men,
toned, 4I12 miles of lateral bitches have
also been built on the reservation. The
Crow reservation now comprises about
100000 acres and the Crow, Flathead
etc. commission has been upon the ground
for several months trying to treat with
the Crows for the sale of 100000 acres of
this land upon the north and south ends
of the reservation. G. B. HILT.'

ken by the representatives of each ma
ton should be known the world over
NO one expects now that any limita-
lions as to war equipment will come
from the deliberations of the peace
congress. But there appears to be
disposition to bring forward for dis
cussion the great question of arbitra-
tion, with possible provision for an
international court, before which there
may be tried such disputes as that
which severed the diplomatic relations
OF Great Britain and Venezuela. If the
congress should do no more than to
PROVIDE code by which it would be
certainly known when an international
dispute arose whether it was in the
class that referred it to arbitration for
settlement, 1t would be worth all it
cost. 10 secure such a result will try
all the constructive ability within the
membership of the congress.
For instance, Great Britain is anX-
ious to submit to arbitration the line
between Alaska and British America.
IN the nope of securing a new harbor on
the Pac1flc coast as an outlet for the
klondike region. But the position of
the United States is that in arbitration
OF TINS question we would have eyery-
thing to lose and nothing to gain, and
that the line, so far as it gives us con-
troll of that coast, is no more in dis
pute than the ownership of Manhattan
island. How, then, shall the matter he
determined if the two nations cannot
settle it? By war? And if not by war,
then by arbitration, and under what
form of International code?
The attitude in which the different
representatives of the congress would
approach this and other questions
should be reported with their speeches.
A secret meeting peace congress is al
most contradiction of terms.

confirming the report of the failure OF
President Kruger and British High Com

at the conference just held at Bloomfon-

offered important concessions, he made
them contingent upon British acceptance
of the principle of arbitration on differ

the Transvaal. Great Britain heretofore
has invariably refused on the ground that
it would be an acknowledgment of the
equality of the two countries.

A CUTTING ARRAY.
John Ryan Was Stabbed by His Brothe-
in-Law.


in-Law.
A cutting affray occurred in Dublin
gulch last night, in which John Ryan
was stabbed by his brother-in-law,
William A. Dixon. The trouble was
the result of quarrel between the
wives of the two men. Ryan is in the
hospital with a wound in the right arm
and right side. His injuries are
regarded as serious. Dixon is in Jail,
charged with assault in the second de-
gree.
There have been hard feelings be-
tween the two families for some time,
growing out of a reflection Mrs. Ryan
cast at Mrs. Dixon, questioning the
paternity of one of her children. Last
evening the two women were brought
together at Dixon's house and Mrs.
Ryan was confronted with the charge
she made. She denied it and the lie
was passed. The women mixed and the
men followed suit. There was lively
scrap, but the parties were separated
and the Ryans went home. Later in
the night the two men got together
again, resulting in the cutting.
When Ryan reached the hospital it
was found he was more seriously in
jured than was at first reported. He
had five scalp wounds on his head,
which he said We're caused by Dixon
using a Ratchet. The blows which
caused two of the cuts barely missed
crushing the skull He had a bad cut
on his under lip, which will disfigure
his face for life. and DiXOn's knife had
been thrust into his left ear, piercing
the drum and running the hearing of
that ear While his injuries are very
serious, his condition is not regarded
as being dangerous. ..
