NO SETTLEMENT YET IN SIGHT
Machinists Holding Important Meet
ing Today, But Foundry Trouble
Is Not Declared Off.
ESPECIAL to Inter M0untain>

especial to Inter MOuntain.)
Anaconda, May 11.-Dan Mcdonald
the labor leader, and committee of the
striking machinists held conference
with Superintendent Hickey for about
an hour yesterday afternoon, but failed
to arrive at any definite conclusion as
to the matters at issue between them.
The strikers held meeting last night,
and have been in session nearly all
day, but their deliberations had
amounted to nothing up to O'Clock this
afternoon, at which hour no steps had
been taken toward calling the strike OF.
President OConnor of the machinists'
union said this afternoon that he did
not believe that a settlement would be
made today, yet it might happen to-
night.
The main contention now seems to be
that Superintendent Hickey absolutely
refuses to take back some of the men
who struck. So far as wages are con-
cerned, the company has granted every
thing asked for, but with the foundry
running as an ordinary repair shop, Mr.,
Hickey declares that he has not sufft-
Gent work to take on more men, and be-
sides, he undoubtedly intends to choose
whom he shall employ, and not allow
the union to dictate to him.

aate committees for the occasion. The
committee held several meetings yes
terday, and at the adjourned citizens
meeting held at the city hall last night
reported full list of committees. about
300 names in all, to take charge of the
various departments.
The report from the executive commit
tee was read. and it was then requested
by Mayor Stephens that those named
upon the several committees should take
action at once and meet at the city hall
tonight at s o'clock to effect a thorough
organization and at once proceed to
work.
1t was urged that it is of special i'm
portance that the finance, invitation,
TRANSPORTATION and printing committees
should proceed with their work imme-
diaately. There undoubtedly will be
great many visitors in the city on that
day from surrounding communities who
will come to see the president, and the
opinion is expressed that the city should
extend an invitation to the citizens re-
siding outside the city to come here.
The executive committee last night
disposed of the matter of arranging for
ladies' reception committee to enter
tain the female members of the presi-
Dental party. The ladies' committee
will consist Of the wives of the gentle
men who constitute the general recep-
tion committee, who are to meet and
organize upon the call of Mrs. L. G..
Smith, who has been delegated to per-
form that function.
One of the features of the presidents
reception will be a company of young
boys, numbering Is in all, dressed in
military attire, under the command of
Capt. Hallahan. The young men will
each carry guns captured from the Fill
pino army, which are trophies brought
home from the Philippine islands Ivy
Capt. Hallahan himself.
While here the president and Mrs Nc
Kinley will undoubtedly be presented
with an appropriate souvenir made of
copper and artistically designed.
M. b. Greenwood has been selected as
custodian of all funds collected to de-
fray the expense of the reception.

White Plains, New York, May IL
The romantic story that Miss Fannie
McComb would lose all but small por-
ton of her share of her fathers estate
if she did not marry Louis Herzog, the
Philadelphia artist. should have been re-
versed Now that the terms of the will
have been made public it is learned
that If she does marry him she will only
get $4,000 per year and 100000 for her
children when she dies, instead of
So 600, coo.
Her father. James Jennings McComb,
made his fortune in the arrow-tie pro-
cess of cotton batting, and his life was
full of romance. He invented the pro-
cess and found Frederick Cook had Sc
cured foundation patent, different in
way but of intrinsic value. Cook Of
fered to sell him his patent, and his
prospective fathern-law, r. w. Rayne,
loaned him the money to buy it. pay
ing $4,000. The invention was an in
stani success and was contested in all
the courts of the country.
In addition to the $4,000, 600 he left by
will there are vast tracts of land in
western Louisiana and Texas on which
oil has just been discovered and whose
value will amount to millions instead of
the few hundreds mentioned in the will
While his fortune is given as SIG, 600, 00O
that is the sum he made from his arrow
tie process alone and he made large
fortune other WAYS.
When the will was offered for pro-
bate, there was no objection, so there
will be no contest. Under the will each
of his four children will receive $4,000
per year income and one fourth of the
estate after the various requests are
paid. Her friends say she will not give
up her fortune to marry Herzog, but
looking for some such action on the
part of her father she secretly married
her artist about a year ago.
Her mother is very i'll in the great pal

PUNCTUALITY WON.
An Insurance Agent Who Stuck 80
His Man and Got Him on
the List

y life insurance agent who resides
in this place deserves great credit not
only for the energy and persistence
with which he pushes his business, but
for his punctuality in keeping engage
ments. He had been after man who
resides in Anita for the past two years,
and had received some encouragement.
He called one day lately and when the
man saw the insurance agent approach
ing he ran and hid. But the insurance
agent had caught glimpse of his fleet
ing form and was not to be foiled. He
finally smoked his man out and told
him he had come to talk insurance,
says the PunXsutawney Spirit.
81 am busy to-day" said the man.
"Call again when l have more time"
when may 1 call, then? Set your
time, and I'll be there"
"You may call next Friday morning
at three o'clock"
81 will be on time"
When the appointed day arrived our
indefatigable insurance man arose at
1:30 o'clock, and walked to Anita. a
distance of nearly five miles, arriving
there at 1855. He sat down on the
porch and waited until precisely three
O'Clock, then rang the doorbell.
What is wanted?" inquired female
