even If the troops be retained. The de-

In the negotiations. There We're on

Dictated that quiet prevailed in Pekin
and that the troops are meeting with no
opposition in their occupation. All are
silent as to the political situation there.
Gen. Barry is going to Manila to carry
out his original orders assigning him to
duty as chief of staff to Gen. Macarthur,
finding that he is not needed by Gen.
Chaffee in that capacity. Gen. Wilson will
probably be assigned by Gen. Chaffee to
the command of the American contin-
gent holding the base at Taku and Tien
Tsin, in the event that all the American
troops are not retired from Pekin. Gen.
Barry reports that Special Commission

himself unable to make his way to Pc

washington, Sept. 6.-The attitude of
the German government on the Russian
proposal for the evacuation of Pekin has
peen made known to the authorities
mere. 1t comes in a communication from
the American charge d'affaires at Berlin.
Mr.. William Jackson. and with clearness
sets forth the German position. In SUBJ
stance ITS states that Germany is desir-
GUS OF avoiding friction between the
powers, out that she considers the con-
dltlons at Pekin such as to require the
retention of German forces there.
Inc statement of Germany's views is
MADE IN such form a. to be taken as
conclusive that it's (G~ermany'sj purpose

KIN, even though Russia should do so. II
IS SAID to be more in the line of a simple
announcement than of argument or an
sWer. 1t is presumed that it reflects the
views made known by Germany to Rus
sia. While there is no definite informa-
ton as to the attitude of most of the
other countries, there is reason to believe
the German position in favor of remain
ing at Pekin finds strong sympathy at
other European capitals and that it will
be the basis of like action from other
powers, III indeed, they have not already
made 1t known that they are in favor OF
remaining at Pekin. In this connection
a new consideration has arisen, namely,
whether the ministers shall remain at
Pekin along with the troops, as it APP
pears to be generally accepted that the
troops Of some, if not all, Of the pow
ers, will remain at the Chinese capital,

necessary to preserve order. There is
no such necessity for continuing the

BADLY bUNC0ED.
A BUTTE MAN LOST $4,000 TO
GANG OF NEW YORK
SHARPERS.

Special to the Inter Mountain.
New York, Sept. 6.-By the simplest
bunco process Charles G. Guignon, who
claims to be a real estate dealer of
Butte, Mont, was buncoed out of $4,000,
which had taken him 10 years to accu-
mulate and with which he expected to
have a gay time at the Paris exposition.
He came from Butte last Thursday with
Sc, 600 in his belt. In a Tenderloin saloon
he met a man named Kerkerdeck, who
talked French to him. They became very
friendly, and Kerkerdeck invited Guig-
non to lodge with him until his steamer
sailed, which would be on Saturday.
Guignon accepted the kind offer n
confded to his host that he was in a
quandary what he should do with his
money, as he did not care to carry it
around with him.
Kerkerdeck listened attentively, and
offered to allow him to place the money
in a tin box in his room, where he said
he kept $780, 900 of his own. Guignon ac-
cepted, and also bought Kerkendeck's
watch for $500.
II don't happen to have the money
with me- said the new-found friend.
'but you car take it out of the money
in the box"
When Guignon opened the box he
found it contained only waste paper.
The police have arrested Mary Durant,
we'll known in TenderlOin circles, whom
Kerkerdeck had Introduced as his wife.

Helena, Sept. 6.-The republican con-
Veht1on was in all respects the most sue
cessful and enthusiastic ever held in
montana. The solid men OF the state,
the taxpayers, the pioneers, the party
Ieaoers and the prominent citizens were
present in large numbers. Every class
ana every section was represented by
splendid men. 1t was a regular love-
1east. Good temper abounded. Every
air.
The nominations were made in high
spirits and all the delegates are salts
ned and congratulating one another as
they are preparing to leave for their
homes. The war horses of the party
were in high fettle and the lesser lights
thoroughly enjoyed the proceedings and
applauded everything that was good.
Ihere was no sign of a slate. No dicta-
ton. No n man was bigger than the
others in directing affairs. Every man
had a show.
There were many silver republicans in
the convention. They were royalty treat
ed, and there was no sign that anything
unpleasant bad eve happened. They

were glad to have them back. Scores of
members of former legislatures were
among the delegates. Over thirty were
members of the legislature which elected
Carter and Mantle, and last night they
all had a banquet, to which the orators

a magnificent reception was the result.

no ill-will evident anywhere, except in a
few instances when some of the mem>
bers of the rejected delegation aired
their grievances, but only a few of them
were in evidence, and they were gener-

was really no Reuse for trouble, and
the only unpleasant feature of the entire
convention was the distribution of some
anonymous scribbling which hurt no one

ton as rubbish.

MORE TROUBLE FOR THOMAS.
Man Who Pawned Diamonds Also
Forged a Note.

Waring Thomas, the young insurance
hustler who went out to sell some dia-
mOnds belonging to Mr.. Sablotsky of the
Chicago Dry Goods store, to a lady and
wound up by pawning the jewels and
converting the one to his w uses,
is now in more serious trouble. After
landing the young man in the county
Jail and locating the jewels, Detective
Murphy continued his investigation and
discovered today that Thomas had
forged the name of a woman employed at
one of the laundries to a note for 1927.
He proceeded to give the paper value by
forging the name of Mr.. Bennett, the
butcher in the Dahl block, as endorser.
This CAV the note the appearance of
first-class paper and Thomas next
sought a buyer. He found one in the
person of Mrs. Byrne, who resides at the
corner of Woolman and Main streets,
from whom he secured cash to the
amount of $3.50.
This all means that additional charges
will be filed against Thomas.

AMERICAN SODA WATER.
1t II Becoming Popular i'm Great
Britain.


According to Consul Halstead, at Bir-
mngham. the American soda water foun-
tain is rapidly becoming a popular insti-
tuition in Great Britain. I'm a window of
chemists shop (drug store) in the Grand
Hotel block, on Colmore row, Birming-
ham,, says he. there has been for two
months a sign on an American soda foun-
tain advertising various sodas and phos-
pilates. The fountain has been a striking
success. The proprietor is an enterpris-
ing man who Is ready to try new things.
Following the installation of the fountain
came hot weather, and on one day he sold
900 glasses of various fiavorS. on other
days, six or seven hundred glasses: and
even during recent cooler weather there
has been profitable business. The winter
use of the soda fountain having been ex-
planned. he expects to build up hot-beef-
tea, hot-ciam-juice Qf he can get the clam
juice) and soda toncs trade. 1t was not
possible to introduce ice-cream soda this
season, owing to the small size of the shop.
Doctors called and denounced the use of
soda water, fearing harmful effects from
the dangerous ice-cold liquid and then took
1t themselves, just as they do at home The
success of this fountain is another indica-
ton of the growth of the ice habit in Eng
land. Colmore row is great thoroughfare,
but is not as likely place for soda water
fountain as is crowded New street. 1t seems
that an American soda fountain syndicate
has taken up the matter of the introduce
ton of soda water fountains in England
and is determined to. and will. succeed.
They offered inducements this summer in
prices, etc, to anyone in any British city
who would put in the first fountain. and a
number of cities have them now III success
