HI BILLINGS GAZETTE.

The railroad company, through it's
claim agent, c. e. Emmerich, has
offered to settle with Mr.. Hubbard by
paying him the sum of $1,000 and
medical expenses, but he considers
that too small an amount for his dam
ages and will bring a suit for more.
The Great Northern, Northern Pa
cific and Canadian Pacific last Mon
day decided that until October l,
homeseekers' excursions will be run
from the east to all parts Of the
northwest on the first and third Tues
days Of each month. No notice has
been received relative to the Burling-
ton, but that road will, it is believed,
join the other three and do likewise.
The excursions run by the northwest
ern roads during the months of Feb
ruary, March and April were such a
success that the roads felt called upon
to continue them during the summer
and fall.

PICTURES FOR LIBRARY.
Mr.. Frederick Billings, Jr, Makes
Another Donation.

Just when the Parmly Billings
Memorial library will be dedicated
is still a matter that is left to the
choice of the Billings family in New
York. The work of identifying the
grounds is going right ahead and the
building committee hopes to be able
to have a lawn started this year. In
addition to the grading of the grounds
a stone coping will be placed around
the entire building and cement walks
laid up to the entrance.
The Billings family are showing
deep interest in the library. Some
time ago they sent a number of books
and have selected the furnishings for
the interior, which are to be of oak.
Yesterday A. L. Babcock received a
letter from Frederick Billings in which
the latter stated that he had shipped
to the building committee several
large pictures to be used in the Ii
brary furnishings. The pictures are
as follows: "The Pyramid of Gisah
and the Caravan Starting From It."
''The Acropolis," "The Parthenon,"
'"The Coliseum" .ssThe Castle of st.
Angelo" "St. Peters Cathedral" and
Don Carlos On Horseback"

NEW SCHOOL BUILDING.
Plans Have Been Drawn for. One t
Cost $4,000.

Architect J. G. Link of Butte, act
ing on instructions from the building
committee of the board of trustees
Of School District No. 2 of Billings,
has drawn up plans for the proposed
new south side school building, which
is to be erected this summer, at the
cost of about $25, OOO.
The plans call for a three-story
brick building of Romanesque style,
together with basement. There will
be four class rooms on each of two
floors, while the third floor will be
used as an assembly room. There
will be four large entrances, one on
each side of the building. All the
steps will be on the inside of the
building. Two large oak staircases
will lead from the first floor to the
second. Large cloak rooms are pro-
vided for each of the class rooms.
The building will be heated through
out by either hot air or steam from
the basement. There will also be play
rooms in the basement. MI. Link
says it will be as fine a school build
ing as there is in the state.

SEMINARY FOR BILLINGS.
A Miss Clark Of Missouri Desires te
Establish One,

Billings is fast forging ahead and
bids fair to become one Of the promi-
nent educational cities of Montana,
despite the fact that it has no state
institutions to start the project. The
city is probably better known through
out the east than any other city of
the state, except Butte and Helena,
and is attracting attention from those
desiring locations, etc. Only a few
days ago a communication was re-
ceived from James R.. Goss, relative
to the establishment of a seminary
in Billings. There is no better point
in the state for such an institution
and the fact that the state has none
makes it all the more probable.
Students would come here, not only
form this state, but from all over the
northern part of Wyoming. Mr.. Goss
interested in educational matters and
always takes a deep interest in every
thing pertaining to the welfare of the
city, has talked to several prominent
business men and citizens regarding
the matter, and all expressed them
selves as being heartily in favor of
such an institution and would do all
in their power in the way of bringing
it to a realization.
The writer of the letter, Miss Clara
G. Block, residing at Liberty, Mo-,
says that if proper encouragement is
given she and another lady, a pupil at
Liberty Ladies' college, will come and
open a select school or seminary. Miss
Clark states that she is a graduate of
the college named and has taught a
subscription school one summer at
Kearney, Mo. She gives as refer
ences several gentlemen connected
with educational institutions and af-
fairs in that part Of the state in which
she resides. The intention of the Ia
dies, should they decide to make the
experiment, is to teach the higher
branches, including music, art and
language, is desired.

COIN MAKERS CAPTURED.
PiopO Paris Gang Run Down by
secret service Officers.

The Secret Service Bureau received in
formation yesterday of the capture in
New York OF eight coin counterfeiters
who have worried the officers OF the bu-
reau for several months. The arrests
were made Friday night at 112 Mulberry
Street, II Mangin Street. East. and %
Watt Street, West. The counterseiters
are known as the Paris Gang" because
the leader of the party is Piopo Paris.
The others are Michael Cierbo, Jiacomo
Bosbippo, - Pisapia and wife. Sylvester
Acunco, Amelio ABBOTT, and man whose
name has not yet been learned. The ar
rest Of the man whose name is not known
was made when he came to one Of the
counterfeiting dens and made some en-
qulries that fastened suspicion on him.
Twenty-seven counterfeit silver coins
were found in his pockets.
About three months ago complaints
reached Washington from New York from
storekeepers and others, who said they
were finding number of spurious coins
in their cash. The coins were made of
silver. and were well executed. The
denominations were twenty-five cent
pieces, half dollars, and dollars. 1t
was found very difficult to trace the
coins back to their source. for the pieces
were so well made that they were seldom
detected by the persons to whom they
were paid by the counterfeiters.
Enquiry was made by the Secret Service
agents at the places where bar silver and
sheet silver are sold in New York, with
the result that Plat G Co.. of Gold Street,

quently to some men of whose business
or purposes they knew nothing. Detec-
tives lay in wait at the place of Platt &
Co. and in this way the courterfeiters
were found out. II was soon discovered
that they were operating at the places
on Mangin Street and Watt Street, re-
spectively. The woman in the case lived
on Mulberry Street. The Watt Street
house is an unnoccupied residence and
was ideal for the purpose Of counterfeit
ers In the basement were presses and
all the necessary machinery for coming

tons. The windows and doors OF the house
are boarded up, as If the tenants were not
in the city. The Mangin Street house was
quite as well equipped. It was intended
to make the arrests yesterday. but the
matter was sprung prematurely because a
policeman not connected with the case
and not supposed to have knowledge of il
approached the Watt Street house yester
day afternoon and raped on the door.
This scared the inmates and they imme-
diately proceeded to destroy dies and in
every way to clear away evidence that
might be used to convict them. The po-
liceman's act is unexplained and VIII be
investigated.
1t is believed that the counterfeirers
carried on a large business, for Paris
had given single order for 1000 ounces
of silver to the Gold Street firm.

MARINE GREEN'S CASE.
Commander Wainwright Denies That
the Mnn Died From Neglect


Commander Wainwright, in charge of
the Naval Academy at Annapolis, has for
warded to Secretary Long a report which
was requested by the department at the
instigation of Representative Rixcy. upon
the death of Marine Hobart K. Green. He
denies completely the charges made to
the effect that the death of Green aboard
the Santee was due to any neglect or i'm
proper treatment. and declares the al
legations TO be without foundation.
Reviewing the case Commander Vain
wright says:
Private Green was admitted to the sick
list on December II. 1900. with catarrhus
epidemicus, on the 18th the diagnosis was
changed 70 pneumonia and the case erm-
mated fatally az 1855 2. n. on Decem-

WAS screened of on the gun deck to en-
sure protection from drafts and disturb

there was no unnecessary cleaning in he

and stimulants were given at specified
times by a nurse. His diet was milk and

undertaken. prepared for burial. and on
the afternon of the 18th inferred in the
National Cemetery here with military
honors, as prescribed by the navy regu-
lations."
He then goes on TO state that the San
tee is in good sanitary condition. being
housed in. and that the berth deck is
hea ed with steam. He says that
greater number of cadets than there are
now marines have been CHARTERED aboard
the vessel with comfort. The rations
aboard the Santee, he says, are better
than those in the barracks, as the ma
rines receive Communication for the full
Eayy ration. IN conclusion Commander
Wainwright declares that from personal
experience he knows the conditions as TO
health and comfort aboard the Santee are
Superior TO those OF most receiving ships
Secretary Long has assured Mr.. Rixey
that the matter of Green's death will be
fully investigated and has requested that
those persons who have information con-
corning the matter. go to Annapolis at
the expense of the department and give
their testimony.
