CALLER HAD SMALLPOX.
Afflicted Man Enters Court House in
Quest of Aid.

A man who. it is alleged, has the
smallpox, called at the court house to-
day in search of aid, but he did not re-
main in the building long enough to
either give his name or his financial
standing. He said he had come from 40
East Park alley and that the physician
had told him he did not have the disease.
His face, however, was broken out, and
by those who know what the disease is,
it was pronounced smallpox. He was
turned over to DIR. O'Leary, who has
charge of the county"s cases, and taken
to the old pest house.. There are now
two men at the pesthouse, another case
of the disease having been discovered in
the city about a week ago. The county
coan.ni ssioners say they will look after
all paupers whom the disease overtakes,
but anyone possessing means will be
turned over to the city.

FIVE DOLLAR GOLD PIECE.
Ball Player Said to Have Taken it
From a Boy in Helena.

Israel ZapOlskyl, a 13-year-od boy, was
at the police station today, prepared to
out a warrant charging a Butte
ball ttoEser with larceny. Israel says that
he was in Helena yesterday to see the
ba1l game and wore the Butte colors, too.
While on the street he made a fine catch
of a hat which the Helena zephyr had
plucked from the read of a prominent
citizen. To reward the boy for his service
the prominent citizen, who is supposed
to have been on the right side of the
game, gave him a IS gold piece. Several
people heard of the boys luck, and he
was proudly showing the sinner when the
ball player asked for a look at It. He
has been looking at lit ever since, refusing
ITO return 1t to Israel. The boy was re-
ferred to the county attorney, n the
chances for an arrest are first-class.

MOVEMENT OF TROOPS.
Ships May go Direct to China-Great
Activity.

Washington. July 23.-The war depart
ment is considering the ~advisability of
sending the Hancock. which sails from
San Francisco, July %, with four bat
teries of artillery and 500 marines direct
to Taku, instead of to Nagasaki. These
troops were to ave gon on the Meade,
which sails August /. but it has been
decided owing to the urgent necessity
of getting: reinforcements to China to
have the Hancock make a special trip.
The Meade, on the first proximo, will
take out one battalion of the Fifteenth
infantry, one squadron of the Third cav
airy and che company of engineers from
West Point, in all LII men and sixty Of
ficers.
The Garronne, carrying two squadrons
of the First cavalry and 100 recruits, 30
officers and $50 men, will sail from Seat
tie the same day for Nagasaki. The place
of the Hancock, which was originally
scheduled to sail August Is, VIII be
taken by the Warren, if h arrives at
San Francisco in time. She will take out
two suuadrons of the Ninth.

LATEBOXER NEWS.
CONFLICTING OPINIONS.
MAJORITY DOUBT MINISTER
C0NGER'S DISPATCH.
Good Reasons for Believing it Au-
thentic-Japanese Minister
Reports.

New York, July pa dispatch to TIE
Tribune from London says:
The English attitude of unreasoning
unbeHef, respecting everything coming
from official sources in the Chinese prov
inces, is not justified by inherent proba-
bilities. Leader writer's who are cracking
jokes over the credulity of their Amer
lean cousins in swallowing Chinese dates
whole will find lit difficult to explain the
motive of the imperial government in
either forging or raising the date of Mr..
Conger's dispatch, and in Wantonly de-
ceiving one power after another with
false assurances of the safety of the le-
cations. Until some ineligible motive
for such treachery is supplied ut would
seem prudent to give to the imperial
government credit for telling at least
part of the truth.
Optimist views are confined to small
circles here, but several plausible reasons
are assigned for them. One is the evacu-
alton of the country around Tien Tsin
by Chinese troops, since it implies a de-
cline of Boxer fanaiticism. Another is
the quieting down in the southern prov
inces, for the reports of risings at Canton
and disturbances caused by the Black
Flag are still unconfirmed. Another is
Lii Hung Changes Journey northward,
which will be continued from Shanghai,
for he would hardly venture to pass
through the allied fleets and camps as
the new governor of Pc Chi Ii if he were
not assured of the safety Of the minis
tiers. To these reasons is added the in
her,ent probability that the imperial gov
eminent would not stultify itself by silly
~mendacity if the ministers had been mas
sacred. but would identify itself with a
successful rebellion in the end as it had
done in the beginning.
Thoughtful men, reasoning from these
premises, are disposed to believe that the
empress dowager has succeeded In en-
forcing her authority and is protecting
the unnan of the legations, for, not
even the most sanguine optim1st is pre-
pared to admit THAT assault as deter
mined as 'those described by Sir Robert
Hart and Minister Conger ave not been
ATTENDED with severe loss of life.
This view represented the hopeful
minority of club men and officers in town
last night. The majority stiM considered
it impossible that Mr.. Conger's message
could have been sent in less han two
days from Pekin to Shan Tung or that
1T was written on last Wednesday,, and
they attached no importance to any bull
letins or guarantees from a viceroy after
a full month of promiscuous mendacity.

FINANCES AT LONDON.

New York, July 23.-The Times London
financial correspondent cables: The Chi
nese war scare has driven the bank rate
up to 4 per cent, not the actual position of
explained, mainly expenditure and bor-
rowed money by the government, floating
balances have been cheap, and they remain
cheap. But the bank has lost e2,oOo,O0 % in
gold since the end of May, when it lowered
the rate from 4 to 3A per cent, and the
prospect is that a good deal will be lost be-
tween now and November. There is the
rub.
Perhaps, by taking steps thus early. it
may be hoped that the strain put upon us
in the end of last year will not be repeated.
At lease this seems to be certain, that 4
per cent will be followed by 5 per cent.
offered this week and the G500,O0 bor-
rowed in the bank, the government float
ing debt will be up to about G1S,O OO, 600, and
to fund this debt and pay the expenses of
stock must be created; but we have no in
formation about what the government re-
q%uirements may be thus far, and there is
an inclination to postpone telling the truth ruth
is not good for the market, and increases
it's embarraSSmentS.
For the moment discount has risen close
to 4 per cent, but the supply of mercantile
remain cheap. Money FOR the week can
still be had at 8 per cent. Unless, there
fore, the Bank of England pulls in with
one hand what it is obliged to pay out with
kept effective, and, even if it were, it will
not. The utmost we can hope for Is that it
may prevent the stock of the bank from
being further trenched upon. The gold the
here, and experts think it would not come
to any extent even were discounts 3 per
cent.

MASON GETS new TRIAL..

snecial ITO the Inter MOUNTAIN.

Special ITO the Inter Mountain.
Helena, Mont, July 3.-Fhe supreme
court, today, granted a new trial 70 John
Mason, convicted at Butte OF robbery
and sentenced to twenty years imprison-
ment. The case was revised because of
erroneous instruction given the jury by
Judge Clancy.
The court denied the application of B.
L. Baker for a writ of certiorari to re-
view the action of Lindsay in making an
order fixing the amount of a bond on
stay of execution, pending appeal from
Judgment, in the case of Baker VS.. Butte
City Water company.
The court affirmed the decision of dis
trict court of Lewis and Clarke county,
which held against John w. Wade, ex-
county surveyor of Lewis and Clark
county, in his suit against the county for
mileage. The supreme cour finds that
section 1880, political code of Montana,
does not confer right of mileage upon n
offices not named therein or in other Sec
tiOnS.

A BRIGHT PROSPECT.

Although VIM. Mckinley was
elected president in 1896, few peo-
pie, perhaps, are aware OF the 1act
that be had close call; for it has
been estimated that il MIR. Bryan
had received only 1871 more votes
in 1896 in the states OF California,
West Virginia, Oregon. Indiana,
Kentucky and North Dakota, he
would have received 40 more electo-
raj votes-enough to have elected
him. Now when We take into con.
sheraton the fact that VIM. Bryan
lacked so few votes of getting the
electoral vote of the states above
named, at a time when the Demo-
cratic party was SO split up on the
silver question, it seems that his
election this year is almost certain,
when the entire Democracy is a unit
for him, and when great many of
the leading Republicans of the
country have come over to him on
the question of Imperialism.
The Democratic party, the Popu-
lis. party, and goodly element of
the Republican party are all allied
in pushing to successful end one
common issue-an issue that APP
peals to every American-to par
ents who do not wish to see their
SONS forced into compulsory military
service, as are the youth of France
and Germany today; to the tax-pay-
err, who realizes that the vast arma.
ments of military nations place
crushing burdens upon the shoulders
of those who must defray the ex.
penses; to the daily laborer who can
appreciate the saying that Gin Ger
many every man who goes to work
carries a soldier on his back" and
to the humanitarian, who does not
think that the gospel should have a
gatling gun attachment.
The great masses of the people
are united against Imperialism, and
in November they will record their
votes against it. Mr.. Bryan's
chances are very bright.
