Prison Yard.

Vienna, Aug. A. Slowopolskie to-
day reports a revolt of convicts at
Jetissavetopel, Russia. A sanguinary
conflict, the paper says, occurred in
the courtyard between the revolving
convicts and the guards.
Thirty-four of the convicts were
killed and 70 wounded and 20 of the
soldiers were injured in the melee.
Immediately after the subduing of
the revolters their ringleader was ex-
ecuted in view of his fellow prisoners.
Fifteen others were sent into solitary
confinement in the darkest dungeons
of the prison, where they will remain
for six months.
The remainder were fogged, several
of whom are reported to be dying.

ALLEGATIONS ARE ADMITTED
Suit Against Alleged Beef Trust Sent
a Step Forward,

Chicago, Aug. 4.-The suit against
the alleged beef trust was sent a step
forward here today by the filing in
the United States court of demurrers
by the defendants, both as indiciduals
and as corporations. The demurrers
set up at considerable length that
the complaint On which an injunction
is asked is insufficient.
The effect of the filing of the de-
murrers is technically to admit all
the allegations charged in the bill of
complaint. The argument advanced in
support of the packers position is
that, admitting the truth of the
charge, no sufficient ground has been
shown for the issuance of the petition
in the writ The instrument was
signed by John w. Miller, counsel for
all the packers. If the demurrer is
sustained. by the court the original
complaint may be amended, and If
overruled, the defendants have the
privilege of answering. 1t is not ex-
pected that any further steps will be
taken in the case by either side until
about October /. when the federal
judges return from their vacations.

and when the remains of Brown were
discovered his head was on one side
of the track and the body on the
other.

ABLE BUILD 1T.
County Financially in Shape to Erect
New Court House.

New Court House.
From Wednesdays Daily Gazette.
The increase Of the county assess
ment from $5,5OO,OO to s 1000, 900 in
the past year makes the matter o.
bonding the county for the erection
of a court house a problem easy of
solution. The question of issuing
bonds for that purpose will be SUBJ
mitted by the board of county COM
missioners at the genera. election to-
be held in November and the vote in
the affirmative ought to carry by a
very large majority. .....n.e
The county is now financially able
to take care of a good sized issue
of court house bonds. The total debt
of the county at this time does not
exceed 800, 900 in bonded and war
rant Indebtedness, a small item con-
sidering the assessed valuation of pro-
perty in the county, and the board
of commissioners hope to be able to
float court house bonds upon such
favorable terms that no taxpayer will
feel the increased debt on that ac-
count.

TALLEsT WOMAN LIVING.
Friends Want Her to Marry Beaupre,
Montana Giant.

Butte, Aug. 4.-The tallest woman
in the world is visiting Butte. She is
eight feet four inches tall and her
feet are II inches long, making her
nine feet and nine inches from the
tip of her toe to the crown of her
head. Her fingers are seven inches
long.
She is Ella Ewing and she halls
from Missouri. She is a friend of
Judge William Clancy and she also
has other friends here. Mrs. Comley
of Pony, wife Of the marshal of that
city, knew her in Missouri and she
came to Butte to see her.
The giant, Beaupre, who exhibited
his shape here last year, it is said,
is the only living person who is any
where nearly as tall as Miss Ewing.
Mutual friends have been trying to
make a matrimonial match between
the giant and the girl from Missouri,
and it is whispered about that Miss
Ewing is here to- show that she is
willing. Miss Ewing was formerly
with Barnum's shows.

OFFICERS HAVE NO CLUE.
Lack of Description Of Helena High
waymen Discouraging.

Waymen Discouraging.
Helena, Aug. 5.-Neither the police
nor the sheriff have been able to find
ally trace of the bold highwayman
who held up and robbed a picnicking
party and the occupants of a street
a on the outskirts of the city Sun
day night. Sheriff O'Connell found
the team driven off by the robber ear
ly yesterday morning. The horses
were standing at a fence near the
foundry in the Sixth ward. They had
not been tied, and had evidently been
standing there all night. In the spring
wagon was found the hat which had
been passed around by Sam Travis
when he made his involuntary collec-
ton in the East Helena car.
The authorities do not have even a
fair description of the robber and
have been so greatly handicapped in
the search for the highwayman for
that reason that they do not now hope
to apprehend him, unless he should
try to dispose of the watches he Sc
cured from passengers on the car.
The authorities have also been UNI
able to secure good descriptions CT the
stolen property.
The highwayman stood on the plat
form of the car while his involuntary
assistant took up the collection in
side, and for that reason none of the
passengers could give a description
of the man. Some say that he was
slender and tall, while others are
equally sur that he was heavy and
not tall.
Sheriff O'Connell was asked yester-
day if he thought that the rcbber
could have been Tracy. He said that
he diu not think such an idea worthy
of consideration although recent dis
patches would seem to indicate that
the Oregon outlaw had been headed
toward this state.
Under Sheriff J. l.. Callahan is in
clined to believe that the highwayman
was new in the business.
Zone thing the passengers seem
agreed upcn," said the under sheriff,
"and that is that he was armed with
short-barreled bulldog revolvers. Now,
any man who is in the business does
not go around with that kind of guns.
An experienced man has long barrel
= LL
ed revolvers of large caliber. I am in
clined to believe that the business
was new to- this man. He certainly
was a nervy fellow, though"

BLAME THE N
Team Becomes UnmanageabIe on
HiIl-Driver's Leg Broken.

Miles City, Aug. 4.-Claud Gatcliffe,
a young man from the A. B. Clarke
ranch, is in the city receiving treat
ment for a broken leg. The accident
happened while he was driving a man
named Pooley and another man out
in a buggy.
He had a h%alf-brcken broncho hitch
ed up with a gentle horse. In going
down a steep hill the team could not
be completely controlled and left the
road for a side trail. The result was
a sudden turn in which Pooley and
one of the others were thrown into
Tongue river, sustaining no further
misfortune, while Gatcliffe's leg was
broken between the ankle and knee.
