UTILIZE WASTE PRODUCT.
Proposition of North Dakotan to Es-
tabIish a Tannery.

Proposition of North Dakotan to Es-
tabIish a Tannery.
A meeting of the Commercial club
was held last night to consider the
proposition made by 3. r. Waterman
of jamestown, N. D., to establish a
| tannery here Mr.. Waterman pro-
poses to form a stock company with
a capital stock of 100000 and to buy
hides and .furs Of all kinds. The con
Germ would select such Of the hides as
it would wish to manufacture, and
ship the balance east. A large
amount Of what is now wasted On
the sheep and cattle ranches could
be utilized to great advantage, such
as lamb, colt and calf skins, which
are used for garments, gloves, etc.
| Specimens of tanned skins of domes-
tic cats, which make the warmest
driving gloves, prairie dog pelts, etc.,
were shown. :
1t is proposed to utilize the old
Dodge tannery plant, which now be-
longs to Yegen Bros, and to employ
several glove makers, t%ailors, and
other artisans in manufacturing the
product of the tannery. AS the new
enterprise will make a market for the
now waste products of the sheep and
cattlemen it is thought that they will
encourage it by taking a moderate
amount OF. stock.
A committee consisting of G. Yegen,
l. d. O'Donnell and F. B. Connolly
was appointed to circulate a stock
list, and report at a future meeting
of the club to be called by President
Moss.

TO USE MONTANA SANDSTONE
In the Construction Of HeIena's Fed
eral Building.

The contract for the construction
of the federal building in Helena
has been let, and within two weeks
work will be commenced in digging
out the foundation. The contract was
awarded by the treasury department
Monday to the Congress Construction
company of Chicago, the contract
price being $268,717. That company
is to complete the work in 20 months.
In awarding the contract to the
Congress company the department
recommended that Montana sand
stone, from the quarry of the Mon
tana Building company at Columbus,
Yellowstone county, be used in the
construction of the building. This
recommendation was made upon the
suggestion of Lee Ullery, who was
sent out by the department some time
age to inspect the different classes
of building stone available for use
in the building.

of the amount of wool that passes
through the local yards of the North
ern Pacific for shipment to the Bill
ings market, says the Red Lodge
Picket. From a compilation of the

it is learned that at least 260, 900
pounds Of wool have already gone for
warl from here, while at least half
a hundred thousand pounds now lie
in the yards ready for shipment. The
following is a list Of those who have
shipped, with the number of pounds:

There are 1000, 900 pounds of wool
stored in the Fort Benton warehouse.
The first auction sale of wool is
scheduled for next Monday, July 15.

Stephens, nearly 100000 pounds, and
the Fergus clip of about 10000
pounds. Northern Montana clips in
general are clean and strong, and
heavier than last year, though not
greasy. The increase seems to be
in density of fleece.

Yesterdays Sales Show Up Better
Than Any Previous Ones.
From Wednesdays Daily Gazette.
AS regards prices yesterdays wool
market showed up in much better
form than any previous day this sea-
son. AS many clips were sold as the
day before, but the prices received
were better. The sales began rather
late in the forenoon and it was 1880
before the buyers had finished at the
Northern Pacific. The delay was
caused by the removal of wool from
the cars for sampling.
Many new growers were seen on
the market and it is thought that the
sales have now began in earnest and
will continue for the next four or five
weeks, unless nor sales are made
each day. The total number of
pounds sold to date amounts to near.

Yesterdays sales were as follows:
Siberian & Jenner, Livingston; 49,
900 pounds at Is cents to Dewey,

~ MAJOR NTSSk.
From Thursdays Daily Gazette.
About ten days ago a couple of men
called at the Dark Horse livery stable
and hired a team and two seated sur
rey for the day. The day passed
away and no outfit showed, up at the
barn and neither did the men to ex-
plain the reason why. A day or two
passed and the proprietor IF the
barn concluded that he had Nen rob-
bed. The sheriff was notified and a
search instituted for th9 outfit. No
clue was received of il until yester-
day when the owneY received word
that a buggy add tefm answering the
description of those stolen from him
some distance 4fst Of this city. The
informant stated that the team had
been unhitched from the buggy and
was running at large.

try in Eastern Montana.
Very quietly on Saturday afternoon
a camping party dropped into town
and made camp upon a vacant lot on
Main street just beyond Ninth street,
says the Yellowstone Journal. Pre-
Stunning that it was a private party,
it's privacy was not invaded by the
inquisitive reporter and it was not
until yesterday that it became known
that the outfit was a Milwaukee & st.
Paul surveying party, en- route from
Everett-the Missouri river terminus
of the Milwaukee rOad-to the great
beyond. The members of the party
while very courteous, are not COM
municative and consequently this pa
per is unable to quote them as to the
intentions of the company they repre-
sent. However, by putting this and
that together it can be safely stated
that the engineering party have found
a very satisfactory route thus far,
from Everett to Miles City, covering
a distance of about three hundred
miles; perhaps a little MORE. From
here westerly, it is inferred, that the
objective point will be Helena and
then Butte. The party will remain
here a few days to refit and study at
leisure the crossing of the Yellow.

From Wednesdays Daily Gazette.
The Northern Pacific has certainly
been having more than it's share Of
trouble from detective track occa-
stoned by heavy rains. The damage
just east of Miles City, which de-
layed trains two or three days, last
week, was no more than repaired
when another washout occurred near
Sanders, about 20 miles west Of For
syth. n
At about II o'clock Monday night,
while an electrical storm was playing
in this vicinity, a heavy rain was
falling near that poiM and before it
had stopped Hhe gmpany's tracks
were under sekeralfeet of water.
No. 3, the phssf4gerg train due here
at LAS a. M, Wgs the first to run into
the trouble AID had it not been for
the presence Of mind Of the engineer
a terrible wreck would have been the
consequence. One wheel of the day
coach left the track just at the time
when the train came to a stop, the
engineer noting that the track was
moving from the grade. The train
was not moved from it's stopping
place until the water had subsidized
Traffic was delayed until the track
could be repaired, which was about
IA hours.

SHARP PRACTICE FAILS.
Travelling Doctor Arrested for Obtain

Travelling Doctor Arrested for Obtain
ing Money Under False Pretense.
From Thursdays Daily Gazette.
The outfit of Dr.. Meyers & Co., to-
gether with the proprietor of the con-
cern found themselves in the clutches
of the law late Tuesday night.
The doctor and an assistant arrived
in the city last week and opened a
museum of anatomy in a building on
Montana avenue. By the aid of his
exhibits the doctor claimed to be
able to show men just their true all
ments. He also claimed to be able
to cure men Of all bodily ailments.
One man, on Investigating the mys-
teries behind the curtain last Tues
day, told the doctor his trouble and
the latter agreed to relieve him of it,
but the charge would be 500. The
man thought this would be cheap if
he could secure relief. The doctor
told him that the money should be
paid at once, the treatments to begin
in the morning. The terms were &C
cepted and the money was paid.
Tuesday night the doctor packed
his traps and was making ready to
leave town, when the patient routed
out a justice and secured a writ of
attachment on the Doctors outfit, and
also a warrant for his arrest on the
charge Of getting money under false
pretenses. The doctor was arrested
just as he was preparing to go to the
depot to take the train for Miles City.
He was taken before Justice Mann,
where he tried to run a big bluff, but
finding that it did not work, paid over
the 500 he had gotten from the man
and also paid the costs of the court,
as well. DR.. Meyer then proceeded to
the depot and took the train for the
east.
