NOT SETTLED YET.
School Trustees of District No. 8 Will Have 10
Keadvertisc Their Bond

The troubles of the trustees OF school
hoped and believed bN tlIcma few days
ago. Thr story of their difficulties in
securing the money OIL an $500 bond has
been previously told ia this paper
y fcw days ago the clerk of the board
Peter ThicI, and the chairman. Chris.
Schroeder, executed the bond at the
office of the county treasurer and the
same was forwarded 10 the Thomas
Cruise Savings bank IN Helena. with the
expectation that the money On ti4c bond
would be speedily forthcoming
But Maurice Powers Il meuiber Of the
board, and the man who Is said to be
the only one who has made objection To
the progress; of ;t1'irs in the sale of the
bond, was not content 10 let matters
take their course after the Helena bank
had thoroughly investigated the matter
and had then agreed 10 accept The bond
and forward the money. MIR. Powers
wrote another letter to the bank in
which he acknowledged that he had
written the anonymous letter sent to
the bank Il few weeks ago IN regard to
this same affair. In this last letter he
inpresscs upon the bank people that the
bond they have agreed to accept is
Illegal in that it was not advertised long
enough, and also calls their attention to
the fact that bank in Spokane had
refused to take the bond unless it was
rcadvertised
Treasurer Davis received another let.
ter from the bank yesterday in which
they say that they have decided that it
will be necessary for the trustees to re-
advertise the sale of the $500 bond
before they can advance the money on
it. The bank alleges as its reason for
this decision the fact that Messrs. Pow
ers and Thiel have significd their inten-
ton Of rcsigning from the board Of dis
trict No. 8, although it is thought that
Mr.. Powers letter had something, If not
a good deal to do with their decision. In
view of the fact that it will require four
more weeks and then some time to read
vertise and dispose of the bond, this will
work IA hardship on those who have
furnished material and labor on the
school house and are thus prevented
from getting their money.

Though at this late date it seems like
Il hopeless task, yet Sheriff Potter has
not entirely given up hope that some
thing may some day give him clue to
the whereabouts of one or more of the
celebrated quartet of Jail breakers.
Therefore hc is all the time ON the uui
vivc for anything that will lead 10
clue,
There WAS Il letter came To Red Lodge
i'm September from Mrs William John.
son of Watertown, n T., addressed to
Frank Woodstock. who was one of the
four. The letter was couchca in very
endcaring terms. This week Sheriff Pot
ter wrote to the sheriff uf WatcrtoWn
giving him the facts Of the jail delivery
and also the address of this Mrs. John
son in Watcrtown Mr. Pottcr's idea is
that Woodstock may still bc correspond
ing with the woman and i'm that way he
may bc able to learn Wo.5dstocS's pres
ent location. ~

the mcn given would Indicate that they
might be Woodstock and Milbnrn Of the
Jail breaking gang. IL there were any
way Of verifying the suspicion without
giving thc cave dwcllers alarm the sheriff
would gct rcuuisition papers and have
thc men arrested. Az present however,
it is impossible to make sure of the idcn
tilcatinn.

BURLINGTON MAKES REDUCTION.
Follows the Northern Pacific and Great North
ern in Lowering Tariffs.

After f'eD. travellers ON the l,ur!3ne
ton : line FROM Ed9emont. S. d.. through
Wyoming and Montana as faras Billings
will save one cent per mile for the entire
distance covered This will be possible
by reason of a reduction in the mileage
rate from five cents to four cents in
Wyoming and Montana. At the present
time the Burlingtons lines in Wyoming
with the exception Of the main line to
Billings, carry mileage tariff of four
cents. and the reduction on the Billings
line is in order to avoid discrimination.
Former justification has been given the
increased mileage rate on the Billings
line by reason of the limited traffic and
the large operating expenses, but with
the constantly increasing business that
Is now being enjoyed, officials of the road
have determined that the reduction in
the mileage rate can be accomplished
without gripping the effectiveness of
the service and at the same time prove
of great financial benefit to the travellers
who frequently use that part of the sys-
tenn affected by the decreased mileage
rate.

Carter's steAIIngs.

The first exact statement OF what
Capt. Oberlin M. Carter stole
through frauds in the Savannah
contracts which he was supervis-
ing for the War Department, has
just been published from the brief
Of Solicitor General Richards in
proceedings before the Supreme
Court.
The total was Sa,I6o,Is9. AS
this had to be divided among
three, Capt. Carter's share was
S7ao,ss8.Oa, which includes his
deductions for the expenses Of his
twenty-one trips to New York to
divide the "swag" and invest his
part. Mr.. Richards finds that Of
Capt. Carter's share he invested in
stocks 5000, ,3oI.8s. What has be-
come Of this fortuneP Carter has
all OF it-except what he has paid
out to the lawyers, some of whom
he has bought not only as lawyers
but as men. And Mr.. Richards
plausibly suggests that if Carter S
plea for release on bail were
granted he would go abroad to
join and enjoy his investments. "
When the war on Carter begun he
was still in the army, still at large
and smilingly confident, and his
case was sleeping in a pigeonhole
in the Office of the Secretary oi
War under a thick covering oil dust
and official neglect. 1t took many
a month OF stubborn fighting to
put him where he is, and he is still
wasting his stealings in lawyers
fees.

Krnpp's warning.

A Berlin despatch announces the
discharge of 5000 employees Of the
great Krupp iron and steel works,
making 1900 discharged since
October last. And the Berlin
Iage6kat says zone fourth OF all
the working people of Germ nv
are either idle or insuhiciently en-
ployed."
The Krupp establishments con-
stitute the Steel Colossus OF
Europe. They include works at
Essen and other places; seven blast
furnaces, many coal mines, 500 iron
mines IN Spain. three ocean steam
ers, cannon-testing grounds eleven
miles long, stone quarries, clay
and sand pits, &c. They employ,
when running on full time, 47,ooo
persons.
1t is tact OF large suggestion
that the Krupps' principal manu-
factured products are cannon, pro-
jectlles, gun barrels, ammunition,
aTmor plates and sheets for ships
and iortresses-in short, imple-
ments Of war. Up to Jan. 1, 1900,
the Essen works had turned out
3S,47S cannon alone. These fam
Gus German steel shops are in fact
the forges of Vulcan. They add
not so much to the worlds pro-
ductive wealth as to the forces that
make tor the destruction Of wealth.
1t ought to set the Emperor
thinking deeply when, in the face
OF his enormous expenditures for
military and naval purposes, one
fourth OF the German workers are
idle and even the great Govern
ment-supported war-forges OF
Krupp have set adrift one-ffth Of
their employees.
