INDIANS MAKING THREATS.
Another Uprising of Minnesota Reds
Feared with Coming Of spring.

Another Uprising of Minnesota Reds
Feared with Coming Of spring.
Detroit, MINI, Jan. 22.-The wife
of q missionary who for number OF
years has been located at Gull lake,
thirty miles from here and near the
scene Of the late Chippewa uprising,
said today that the Indians are not yet
through, and that by spring there will
be another and greater uprising, il
their demands are not complied with
The full-blooded Indians resent the
peace made with Commissioner Jones,
claiming that it was made by the half
bloods in the so-called timber Clique.
They demand that no rights for cutting
timber be granted, and that they be
given more rations. They are getting
more sullen all the time and more dis
contented. They threaten that if they
rise they will wipe the whites out in
the spring. Since President Mckinley
pardoned the Indians concerned in the
Leach lake massacre they have been
more defiant and impudent. 1t is be-
lieved here that the presidents Glenn
ency was mistake, as it has simply
given the Indians an inflated idea of
their own powers and Importance.

The new one dollar bill has reached
Billings, each Of the banks being in re-
ceipt Of few Of the handsome and con-
venient certificates. The bill is work
of art, the features of it being it's open
ness Of face. Two strips Of silk fiber
vertically across the bill and the red
and blue fibers stand out prominently
Oh the white background. In the center
is q bold engraving Of an eagle with
outstretched wings. There are thir-
teen small stars between the tips Of the
wings. Small portraits Of Lincoln and
Grant and thu seal of government in
pale blue adorn the face of the bill
One may read the denomination at a
distance. The figures ''1n and the
word s'one' are made conspicuous.
There, are big ones and little ones, 4
"ones'' i'll black and ones in blue.
An Indian could tell by moonlight that
this particular bill was good for 100
cents and no more. The new bill has
the additional merit of being most diff
cult to counterfeit and hard to raise.

ties under these. three classes the Off "
GERS have several deputies who do the
work required, while the officers Of the
fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh are al
lowed only one deputy, and il some
cases none. Many other practical
points are advanced, said Mr. Carwile,
which should cause the bill to die
a-bornin'. but this is chief among
them. # there is to be any reduction in
salaries it should be in those counties
where the officers have deputies to do
the work, instead Of snigging' down to
it themselves q

GRAND JURY HAS REPORTED.

There Was No Evidence to Convict Any
one of Bribery.
Helena, Jan. 26.-When the report
Of the grand jury i'll the bribery cases
had been read, Nolan, addressing the
court, denounced the jury for failing to
indicJ and demanded another jury.
The court said as the jury had reported
after examining many witnesses that
the evidence was not suffi cient to war
rant conviction by trial jury, he did
not see any way to call another jury.
This ended the matter. The jury is
still in session, but will not, it is.under-

charges. The report of the jury was !:
To the Honorable Sidney H. McIn-
tyre, Judge Of the District Court. Of the
First Judicial District Of the State Of

Lewis and Clarke:
The grand jury of Lewis and Clarke
county, state Of Montana, duly en-
panelled, sworn and charged on the
18th day Of January, A. p. 1899. here
with submit the following report Of its
deliberations upon the charges made by
the committee Of investigation appoint
ed by the Sixth legislative assembly Of
the state of Montana, nowin session:
We have been in session ten days and
have examined forty -four witnesses,
and have also examined all papers,
documents and other legal evidence
touching the questions under considera
tion. and have had produced before us
all witnesses who, we had reason to
believe, could shed any light upon the
question of bribery, perjury or con-
spiracy. In the interrogation Of wit
nesses and in the construction of the
law appertaining to matters before us
we have been ably assisted by the at
torney general of the state and the
county attorney of Lewis and Clarke
county.
We have carefully weighed all the
evidence submitted to uB and while
there has been some evidence which
tends to show that money has been used
in connection with the election Of q
United States senator, it has been con.
tradicted and explained in such way
that all the evidence introduced before
us, taken together. would not, in our
Judgment, warrant conviction by q
trial jury.
While we have not finally concluded
our labors. we deemed tho investiga-
tion Of matters relating to bribery, per.
jury and conspiracy of 10 paramount
Importance. that full report on, these
should be made before taking up other
matters cognisable BY al and bringing

Helena, Jan. 27.-Clark made no
gain today. The vote was: Clark,
40; Conrad, 80; Maginnis, 6; Fox, q;
Charles D. Leonard Of Silver Bow, re-
publican, 16. The increased republic
can vote was due to the seating Of Sen
ator Geiger Of Flathead county. in
place Of Fred Whiueside, who was
thrown out Of the senate yesterday.
John R. Toole, the leader Of the DAILY
contingent, sprung a mild surprise
when, after brief address. he changed
his vote to DR.. Fox. He had formerly
been holding out for Conrad. Repre-
sentative Mats of Deer Lodge did not
open the guns Of his oratory today, as
has been counted on. Senator Hannah
had stated, when he voted for
Clark, that Toole, early in the session,
had come to him and limited fattering
propositions, to the effect that be might
be considered dark horse if he would
lend his support to the Toole forces.
Toole, in a speech, denied any such
conversation.
Representative Hedges of Fergus
made ringing republican speech, in
which he said the members OF this
party in the assembly would stand to-
gether.

Red Lodge, Jan. 27.-The murder Of
VIM O'Connor, superintendent of the
Rocky Fork coal mines, was this morn

when Thomas Salmon was executed in
the Jail yard BY Sheriff Dunn. The
doomed man went to his death with
perfect composure and an exhibition of
nerve seldom witnessed and never
surpassed among those who have met
like fate.
Salmon made statement yesterday
to Austin North Of Billings, special
reporter for the Times, who came up at
the earnest request of the condemned.
He slept soundly last night, ate a
hearty breakfast and just before being
led out to the scaffold preached, as he
said, his own funeral sermon. He
said. by way Of Introductory

with head erect and firm step and
tripped quickly and lightly up the steps
and took his place on the trap The
straps were adjusted, the black cap
drawn down, the moose fixed and the
trap sprung within minute and half

Not word was spoken and Salmon
died without a single protest. His
neck was broken and the dead man cut
down in fourteen minutes.

CLOTHING.

Many men dread buying new
suit. It is hard to judge quality un-
less you are thoroughly posted.
Styles are constantly changing,
SO are the prices.
It is just as easy to buy cloth
ing here as it is to buy granulated
sugar at your grocers. We don't
say it is all wool when it has cot
ton in it. We don't tell you it fits
when it doesn't. We don't ask you
one price and your neighbor an
other. Every article in the store is
marked in plain figures, and that's
the lowest possible price the goods
can be sold for. Our statesmen
have positive instructions to tell
the facts about goods and no more.
Three new lines of low priced
suits are here to-day and they are
decidedly the best values of the
kind we have had lately at least.
We refer to the mems new suits in
round or square cut sack styles at
$5, $3.50 and $40. You will find
them, price considered, well made
suits indeed.
