Republican Breach Widens Over the
Tariff Question.

Washington. June est becomes
more and more evident every day
that there is wide diversity OF opln-
ion among the western and eastern +
republicans on the necessity OF tarlf1 .
legislation next winter. Representa- /
tive Warner of Illinois, who arrived
in the city last night to look after
some matters for his district in the
departments. intimated very strong
" that there would be some import
ant tariff legislation during the next
session of congress.
Ii the tariff needs revising for the
purpose of better controlling the
trusts said he, you may depend
upon it the republicans will act ac-
cordingly. The tariff is not sacred.
When it is made evident that the
protection afforded by the tariff has
served its purpose, then the protec-
ton will be removed. 1t would not
surprise me in the least if the preSl-
dent should make such recommend
alton in his message to congress
Other laws have been amended to
meet changed conditions, and why
not the TARIFF
} In Mr.. Warmers Judgment what
: ever tariff legislation is proposed vii
be agreed on in caucus.
Speaking of candidates for th'
presidency, Mr.. Warner said that
Senator Cullom was candidate Hi
nois would be solid for him. Sena
tor CullOm, he said, was hare
worker, and was ever on the alert t
advance the interest of the state. III
saws he would like to see him presl
a dent. for he would fill the office wit
I credit to himself and the country.

THE REGISTRATION.

Registration was very slow to-day, and
if the estimate of 10000 is correct the
clerks will probably be unable to regis
ter all of the electors. If, on the other
hand. there will be between 5000 and
5000 register the clerks will be unable
to do the work unless they are steadily
kept busy.
To-day the registration in the first dis
trict at Is North Arizona street was g.
GA up to 4 o'clock. In the second dis
trct in the armory the registration was
2,501, making a total of 5,125.
This is the sixth day of registration
and on the estimate Of 10000 there should
be daily registration Of 1000 or 500 in
each district There will be a shortage
of at least 500 tonight and if this con-
tinues until the last two days it will be
seen that the clerks will be unable to
register much more than 5000 and the
chances are that number will be I'M
able to exercise their right to vote at
the coming election.

Arnold tod the men he would give them
hearing on Friday. but McGinley's at

han would swear mckinley had nothing
to do with the assault on Ryan and
therefore ought not to remain in Jail.

the time. and Mr.. Savoy said he would
bring habeas corpus proceedings to Sc
cure McGinleys release from custody.

HELENA HOSPITAL FIRE.
Special to Inter Mountain.

Special to Inter Mountain.
Helena Mont. Marcn 1S.-On Saturday
afternoon fire broke out in st. Peters
Episcopal hospital where there We're
about 80 patients, and only the most
heroic efforts of the regular and volun-
teer firemen saved many of them from
a fiery grave, the flames spread SO rap
idly.
The water pressure in the mains was
so light as to give very poor service,
the hospital being situated on high
ground. Adding to this came the break
ing of one of the most important lines
of hose, and the crowd became almost
frantic as their means for fighting the
fire were thus lessened. However, all
the patients We're finally removed to
places of safety, and the crowd turned
its attention to saving the properly. The
hospital is a wreck. and the loss is esti-
mated at not far from $4,000. fully COW
cred by insurance.
Many narrow escapes are recorded.

AND
COMMERCIAL

New York, March 1S.-Wall street:
In the stock market started Off with Il
rush today. There was an eager de-
mand for all classes and grades Of
stocks and bonds, and prices rose buoy
antly. At first only few stocks were
notably higher, but the market con-
stantly broadened and new stocks came
forward into the upward movement.
Burlington and Manhattan led the move-
ment. The movement was the sequel to
the growing strength last week which
attracted large outside demand through
commission houses this morning. It was
emphasized by the report that j. j. Hill
had acquired control of Burlington in
the interest Of Northern Pacific ana
Great Northern and that the Rockefeller
iron interests were to be included in the
merger. Manhattan, Bui 1ington and the
steel stocks We're bought on an enormous
scale at advances of 9 to Az points. The
Pacific stocks and the Changers were
very largely dealt in at advances app
preaching or exceeding two points and
many less prominent stocks were very
buoyant.
The handsome profits shown by the
quick advances brought heavy realiz-
ing by the professional operators who
bought last week in anticipation of to-
days developments. The cOalers suf-
fered from the fear that a miners strike
might occur in the anthracite region.
The large demand absorbed all selling in
the first hour but when the buying
orders accumulated in commission
houses had been executed prices began
to yield. Before noon inroads of from
to 3 points had been made upon the
best prices of some of the active stocks.
But others advanced and kept up the
animation and undertone of strength
of the market. Missouri Pacific moved
up 81 in face of the general tendency
to react.
Burlington touched 165 in the after
noon and other stocks which became ag-
excessively strong were sugar, General
Electric, T. c. & H., Peoples Gas, Rock
Island, Louisville and Southern Pacific.
In the Erie second preferred the extreme
advance reached six points with a fever
ish and erratic price movement. Where.
ever new stocks advanced their sustain.
ing force was skillfully taken advantage
of to realize profits in stocks which had
already risen. This process made soma
deep inroads upon best prices, occasional
reactions running from to points.
Pressure was promptly relaxed, however.
after the professionals had taken tho
cream of the profits. Including botA
stocks and bonds it was one of the larg-
est days in the HISTORY Of the stock eX-
change.

SENATOR GIBSON HERE.
Has Been Kept Busy Receiving the
Congratulations of His Many
Friends.

Senator-elect Paris Gibson arrived in
Butte from Great Falls last night in
company with Theo Gibson, for the pur
pose of attending the funeral of Frank
E. Corbett this afternoon.
Senator Gibson is very reticent in re-
gard to the honorable position to which
he has been elected, and says that as
successor to the eminent statesmen and
senator, Hon. Thomas II. Carter, he will
be very modest in what he demands. He
said that he had not yet had time to
look into the matter of needed leSisla-
ton. and on that subject had but little
to say. Today he met many OF the
prominent men of Butte and received
their congratulations, and to them all'Ho
saws that if he acquits himself as Well
in the office as his predecessor he VIII
consider that he has done his full duty
to the people of the state. He expresses
profound sorrow regarding the death OF
Mr. COrbett.

1t was an ineXpressibly sad duty that
the friends Of the late Frank E. Corbett
were called upon to perform today, and
if it is difficult for them to find solace
for their loss, how much more difficult
must it be for the stricken ones of the
home that death has made desolate
Yet the general sorrow may, in some de-
gree, soften the grief of the widow and
others of the household, and point the
way to Him from whom alone solacc
may come.
A brave man, true and faithful
friend, tender loving and devoted hus-
band and father was Frank Z. Corbett.
May his rest be sweet and the end realize
the thought that
with death the sunrise comes,
The dewdrop slips into the shining sea.
