MURDER AT CASCADE.

John Regain Pounds the Life Out Of Van
Kennedy.
Special to the Bee.
Great Falls, Sept. Gas the result of
an old grudge Van Kennedy was beaten
to death in the rear of Tintinger's saloon
at Cascade by John Regan. Kennedy
was in the saloon drinking when Regan
called him to hear little argument.
Regan knocked Kennedy down and then
picked him up and pounded him to
death with stone which weighed about
two pounds and was afterwards found in
the yard where the tragedy took place.
After doing his deadly work Regan
told the proprietor of the saloon that he
had beaten Kennedy and that he needed
attention. Kennedy was found insensi-
BILE and died four hours later.
Regan was arrested and brought to
Great Falls to avert a lynching, which
was considered probable. He is about
% years of age and native of Illinois.
He is also supposed to have sister at
Big Sandy. Kennedy is not known to
have any relatives in this part of the
country.
At late hour tonight Regan was not
yet aware that Kennedy was dead. He
refused to have anything to say about
the affair except that the trouble arose
from the fact that Kennedy had been
talking about him.

Took u SlunlD.

The eastern wheat market which has
been variable for the past week, took
decided slump yesterday and went all to
pieces in the forenoon; the tone of the
market became tirmer in the afternoon
session and closed as follows: Duluth,
No. hard, 1880; Duluth, No. l north
ern, 765ac and December 1890.
There seems to be decided tendency
to bear the market, and puts and calls
were few. The chances are, however,
favorable for a steady market with slight
advances the balance of the month, as
considerable wheat will be moved to for
eign markets. The yield in the United
States, while large, is not in excess of
former seasons, and the foreign demand
is considerably in excess of that of 1899.
While the market the past week has
been wobbly, there is no apparent reason
why it should remain in weak and vas
cillating state any length of time. The
recovery in the afternoon session of yes
terday gives weight to the belief that
steady market will prevail the balance of
the month at from 781aM8Oc.

Proprietor of Road House Near AnacOn.
da Killed For His Money.
Special to the Bee.
Anaconda, Sept. 6.-Bullas Parrott,
aged about 65 years, al old and respected
resident of this community, was foully
murdered Wednesday night by unknown
men. Parrott conducted the Nine Mile
road house about nine miles east of
Anaconda. The body was discovered
this morning about 7 o'clock by Henry
Peck, a neighboring rancher, and Ed
Lahry. 1t was lying upon couch in
the barroom with feet and hands secure
ly bound with strong binding twine, and
cotton towel, evidently piece of -four
sack, had been placed in his mouth as a
gag and tied tightly at the back of the
neck, cruelty distorting the features.
There were no marks of violence to
show that there had been a struggle or
that blows had been used to kill the un-
fortunate man. The body lay upon the
couch on its right side with the face
downwards and when found the head
was covered with sheepskin that may
have been thrown carelessly over him.
There were no signs of blood except a
few drops on the upper lip, which were
probably caused by the tightness of the
gag.
Upon the bar were an empty beer bot
tie and two glasses partially filled with
beer and on small table near by a plate
OF soda crackers, as though some one
had called for lunch with his beer The
supposition is that the men, for the
number of glasses would indicate that
there were two of them, after getting the
beer had called for something to eat,
and as the old man placed the crackers
on the table, attacked and quickly over
powered him.
The only motive to which the crime
can be accredited is that of robbery, as
Parrott was known to have quite sum
of money about the house. 1t is believed
the robbers got this. A sum of money
in small change in the money drawer
Immediately under the bar was left un-
touched as was also that contained in a
small square tin box behind the bar, in
all about s12. A gold watch concealed
in some bedclothes in one of the inner
rooms was also overlooked. The robbers
evidently knew the place where their
victim kept most of his money.
There is no clew to the identity of the
murderers. The sheriff's officers are
securing the country.

that the natives were sick in nearly every

very deplorable condition. Some were
lying groaning on the ground. saw
one man sitting with his whole body
naked and coughing and groaning. The
pity of it was that nothing was being
done for their relief. Even the sub
treasurer at the place was sick in bed.
"This morning the Bear arrived from
Siberia and different points along the
Alaskan coast, and st. Lawrence island,
and reports terrible state of affairs
among all the natives. In some places
the natives report that more than one
half of them have died, and where the
revenue officers have been able to inves
tigate, about one fourth have died in
places. The epidemic seems to come in
the form of grippe, attended by pneu-
monia or measles or both. The natives
seem to become stupetied and utterly
hopeless and lie down to die. find that
the officers of the treasury department
have taken this matter up in behalf and
in the name of the government to give
the speediest possible assistance"
Gov. Brady commends Lieutenant II.
Jarvis of the revenue cutter service, as
one who takes real interest in the ma
tives, and is IA proper medium for giving
relief to the stricken.

From the Great Falls Leader: Mr..

Falls on business connected with his
lumber business in Kalispell, where he
has made his home for tho past two
years, and speaking of Flathead county

1.-THE present season has been most
prosperous ore for the farmers and fruit
raisers of Flathead. so far as crops are
concerned, and if they had had the or
dering of the weather it could scarcely

all kinds of fruit are being harvested and
gathered just now, and the weather for
harvesting is also of the best. Never in
the history of the county has the general
harvest of grain been beaten, and the
fruit yield has been something phenom-
email. In fruits raised we will soon lead

quality we bar no portion of the United

THE DANGEROUS HOLLAND.
The American Submarine Torpedo Boats
Deadly Power.

Deadly Power.
Newport, r. l., Aug. 3l.-One of the
most important tests that have been
made at the naval torpedo station since
lis establishment took place tonight. 1t
was searchlight test upon night at
tack by the submarine torpedo boat
Holland, and it proved that it will take
more than the powerful searchlight to
pick up the Holland after dark and that
she could run up. on and sink any war
vessel she might wish. 1t was also the
first time that the Holland has ever been
exclusively operated by naval crew. 1t
was in charge of Lieutenant Caldwell,
who was Admiral Dewey's secretary.
The men operated the boat in manner
which proves that others besides the
builders are capable of handling her.
The attack was made on the United
States tug Leyden, which is attached to
the station. She was in charge of Lieu
tenant-Commander Hodgson. The Ley
den went out shortly after 8 o'clock and
took up position at the entrance to the
bay and then the attack began. Not
only did the Holland figure in the pro
ceedings but the torpedo boats Rodgers
and Morris were also brought into use
After the attacking boats got well away
the Leydcn turned on her searchlight
and at the same time the powerful light
at the station was also thrown on the
bay. The Holland was carrying side
lights and while these were burning she
was picked up, but it was no easy mat
ter. The torpedo boats, however, were
picked up with ease and could not at
any time get near enough to torpedo the
Leyden.
The lights of the Holland were then
put out and the most interesting part of
the test began. The lights shot across
the surface of the water, but try as they
would it was impossible to find the boat,
which was running awash. For half an
hour the men on the Leydcn watched for
the Holland, but no sign of her could be
seen. She was last seen in the line of
the ferryboat and some fears were ex-
pressed for her safety, but finally the
lights were put out and the Leyden re-
turned to the torpedo station. After the
tug was docked a look was made at the
Hollands berth and she was found tied
up for the night.
The crew of the Holland say that after
putting out the side lights they came
for the Leyden in the rays of her search
light until within about $50 feet, near
enough to use torpedo with deadly
effect. Then she was headed across the
bay and went equally as near the flag
ship New York. Then she changed her
course and headed for Newport, follow
ing in the wake of the jamestown ferry
boat. The crew said that they thought
several times they had been picked up
and were surprised when told that such
was not the case. The boat was not
fully submerged and the deck was not
under water at any time. Further tests
of this kind will be made. There will be
an attack on the vessels of the North
Atlantic squadron when they return
next month.
