WASHINGTON, August 10.-The
State Department to-day received an
other cipher cable dispatch from Min
lister Conger, at Pekin, Transmitted
through the Chinese minister at Wash
fngton 1t is substantially the same as
that of M. Pichon, the French minister,
to his government indicating that the
eight beleaguered ministers at Pekin
had sent an identical note to their re-
spectiye governments. 1t, however,
gave the additional information that
uofAAhs- 1A26ricas force OF marines at
Fekin seven had been killed and six
teen wounded. Myers and Lippibt, two
OF the wounded, were reported as do
ing well. The dispatch told of the ur-
gent efforts of the Chinese govern
ment to have the ministers set a date
for leaving Pekin, and of their refusal
to comply without instructions from
their governments. 1t is also urged
that the relief forces should be large
enough to escort not only the minis
tiers, but the large number of foreigners
women and children, and the many ma
tive Christians. Some of the express
siOns are the same as those used by NJ.

ALL HIS OWN WAY.

The Governor Was Away and Ncbeker
Made Appointments.
Special to the Bee.
Salt Lake, Sept 20. Republican off
cials and politicians had scare when
they got up this morning to find that
Governor Wells and Secretary Of State
Hammond had left the state administra-
ton in the hands of democratic acting
governor by leaving the state to meet
Governor Roosevelt at Pocatello, Idaho.
Under the statutes Aquila Nebeker, pres
ident of the state senate, is acting COVER
nor. When Mr.. Nebeker discovered late
last night that Wells and Hammond
were both out of the state, he appointed
Judge o. w. Powers United States SEN
ator to fill the vacancy occasioned by the
failure to elect a senator at the last ses-
sion of the legislature. Then he pro-
ceeded to announce changes in the gu
bernatorial staff iand shake up official
dom generally,

Spurlls Ris Leadership.

From the Montana Daily Record: The
man spurned by the last United States
senate for having debauched the last
legislature of this state is not in posi-
ton to pose as the apostle of honesty,
integrity and purity in politics. He has
been weighed in the balance and con-
demned as utterly unfit to fill the honor
able station of United States senator.
He has been tried and proven guilty. He
could not obtain a favorable report from
one lone democrat upon the committee
The universal adherence in which he
was held is shown in the unanimous re
port of the committee which tried and
condemned him. His wealth is the only
attraction that now exists for his party
in this state, and with all of his millions
about one-half of his own party spurns
his leadership. 1t is well.

ance. One robber, at the point of pis-
tol, made Cashier Nixon open the safe
and take from it three sacks of gold coin.
They threw this in an ore sack, together
with all the gold coin in the Office
drawer. The robbers then marched the
five men out through back door to an
alley, where they had their horses wait
ing. The men were kept covered with
guns until the desperadoes mounted
their horses and escaped. The whole
affair occurred in but five minutes and
was most daring piece of work. The
alarm was quickly given and several
shots we're fred at the desperadoes as
they sped through the town, but without
effect. The robbers returned the shots,
but no one was hit. Officers and armed
citizens have started in pursuit of the
robbers, who took course up the river.
A posse has also started from Golconda
to head them off and it is thought they
can not escape.
The amount secured by the robbers is
not known, but it is in the neighborhood
of $1,000.

just returned from Paris, who was inter

II had very pleasant trip and while
away spent couple of weeks at the
Paris exposition. It is good exhibit,
but does not come up with the Chicago
Worlds fair, and except in the matter of
art exhibits is not to be compared with
it. It is not at all crowded and the at
tendance is not large, nor are the hotels
overcrowded. You have no trouble in
securing accommodations, and the prices
are not at all high. The attendance has
been a great disappointment and I un-
derstand that the exposition is likely to
prove heavy losing venture for those
who are back of it financially"

STATE NEWS.

At Billings few days ago there was
not pound of granulated sugar for sale
by any of the merchants. The shortage
is said to have been caused by the fact
that sugar manufacturers of the country

hended, while two escaped into Dakota.

Ditch Turns Out to be a Gold
Mine.
VERY RICH QUARTZ
OF Free Milling Quality is Found In the
Tinkel Ditch-Great Excitement
Over the Discovery.

Special Correspondence to The Bee.
Some Of the richest gold bearing
quartz ever found in Montana was taken
out of the ditch by the men who are
working for the L. Tinkel company this
morning. The ore is known as free mill
ing gold, and will assay about five dol
lars per ounce. The float was found at
the head Of the falls on the south side of
the river, about one hundred feet below
where the headgate of the hume will be.
Here the river becomes very narrow, large
rocks extending out into the stream on
both sides, forming almost natural
dam.
AS to how the gold came here no one
can say, but it is supposed to be IA slide
from the hill on the south side of the
river. If such is the case the lead which
is undoubtedly very rich will be found
and the man who finds it will have made
his fortune. Who knows? We may
have something here as rich as the Klon-
dixie. 1t certainly will pay to investi-
gate by prospecting along the river and
on the hills. About one mile up the
river from where the rock was found
this morning, the Kearney brothers have
located a claim but have not developed
it. 1t may prove to be very rich when
they go down below the surface.

made voluminous reports to Mr.. Hill.
The president was satisfied with their
work and believed that his plan would
work, but the burrowing through some
l4,OOO feet of rock and earth was no
small task and nobody wanted to take
Mr.. Hill at his word. His effort to in
terest moneyed men of the east was
futile so he steamed over to Germany
and secured the desired capital. He
only wanted enough to start the work.
In January, 1897, about two years after
ground was first broken, the revenue of
the road was drawn upon, and since that
time the entire expense has been borne
without loan.
More than 800 men are now employed
in excavating. They are arranged in
two crews, each of which is burrowing
in separate end and at about the rate
of 16 feet each day. At present less
than 25O feet are to be removed. AS
rapidly as the bore is advanced it is lined
with concrete. No official estimate of
the expense of construction has yet been
given out, but it is estimated that it will
aggregate between $3,OOO,OOO and 81 ,OOO,-
OOO. So far the amount paid for labor is
more than $2,75OOOO- Great Falls

MILITARY IS DONE
Civil Authority Will Resume
Control
IN GALVESTON TO-DAY
Clara Barton, In Charge of the Nurses,
Doing Great Good-Train Entered
the City Last Night.

Special to the Bee.
Galveston, Tex, Sept. 2O.-This eve-
ming Mayor Jones proclaimed that mar
tial law would cease at noon tomorrow
and the civil authorities would assume
control of municipal affairs. This was
done at the suggestion of General Sour
ry, who expressed the belief that condi-
tions had reached such state that the
civil authorities were able to cope with
the situation.
Miss Clara Barton has charge of all
the nurses in Galveston. In quiet and
unostentatious way she is doing untold
good for the sick, MANNED and suffering.
1t is announced that the first train
will enter Galveston tonight. The tenn
porary bridge is two thirds completed
and the remaining third will only take
II 2hours. With the first train commerce
will begin to revive. The needs Of the
homeless are still very great. The wal
department has been godsend, and
the situation is being improved. Two
hundred and seventy three dead were
recovered yesterday, and it is now be-
lieved that the ruins in the southwest
end contain less than 700 corpses. The
end Of the week will probably clear the
city of nearly all corpses. Next Satur-
day supplies will be denied all working
and earning wages. Relief will only be
given to women and children and men
who are unable to work.
