STUDY OF THEbLDEsT ROCKS.
The Latest Geologic, Il Researches on the
Subject.

The rock formations known to biologists
as pre-Cambriang ando metamorphic which
comprise some OF thscoldest known. rocks
of the world. are being made the subject Of
critical Investigation BY the United States
geological surveys Until within recent years
much less has been known about these for
nations than about these Of later date, and
they have offered soine of the most per-
picking problems of the science by reason
of their intensely folded. crystallized and
chemically altered conditions. which have
resulted from the enormous pressure and
heat to which they have been subjected In
the past. These ancient rocks, however,
are of great economic importance. as they
contain some of the. richest deposits OF iron,
copper and other, useful minerals to be
found In the country. This is especially
true Of those found in the famous Lake SUI
perior mining region.
: Prof. c. r, Van Hise. who for number
Of years has devoted himself particularly
to the Investigation the metamorphfc
formations. has been placed by the United
States geological survey in-charge OF Its
studies of this important group. He is be-

CLARK WAS IN CONTROL.
Montana Democratic Convention Nom
mates Candidates for Office.

A dispatch from Helena, Mont, last night
SAYS:
The democratic state convention at Boze-
man this afternoon nominated Judge Jere
B. Leslie Of Great Falls as associate justice
of the supreme court and John NJ Evans of
Missoula for representative. No other
nominations are to be made.
United States Senator w. A. Clark and
his friends had absolute control of the con-
vention today. Senator Clark presided as
temporary chairman. The committee on
credentials reported in favor of seating the
Clark delegations from Silver Bow and
Granite counties, and the report was
adopted. Senator Charles W. Hoffman of
Bozeman well-known supporter of SEN
ator Clark. was made permanent chairman.
The platform pledges the party to the
principles enunciated by the Kansas CITY
convention. 1t favors the assessment of
railroad property for purposes of taxation
on the same basis as other property It op-
poses the welding of political power by cor
porations, and says that the consolidation
of leading railway systems and the forma-
ton of trusts and pools require stricter SUI
peryision by the state and federal govern
ments. and demands the exercise OF such
powers and the imposition of such restric-
tons in the control OF railroads as will pro-
tect the people from the dangerous CONSOLE

ROW IN DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS.
Denny brook Fair Time at New Haven,
Connecticut.

A dispatch from New Haven. Conn, last
night says: The delegates to the demo-
cratic state convention assembled here to-
night to transact business preliminary to
the convention proper tomorrow. The pro-
ceedings of the night wound up with fra
cas-, which developed in the New London
county caucus during a debate involving
the Endorsement of one or the other of two
candidates for governor. Hot words were
followed by scuffles. and then came fisti-
cuffs. No one was seriously injured but
the caucus went to pieces in perfect pande-
monium.
dleseX and New Haven counties, were held
in Music Hall. The stage there is elSyated
five feet from the main floor. and there the
New London caucus was held. Some one
started speech in favor of Melbert B.
Cary. This did not sit we'll with the men of
the county claiming Charles f. Thayer as
Its faVorite son, and in a moment a dozen
men We're on their feet. Some one speaking
for Cary shouted: "He's a world beaten
In an instant an elderly delegate from tie
other camp grabbed the speaker by the
throat. The latters cravat came off. 9th
ers interfered. and the two combatarts
seemed to think they were being attacked.
The fight continued until the delegation
became pretty well scattered. Then came a
lull, put 1t was only temporary. Fist fights
soon followed One delegate forgot that he

to get out of the rough-and-tumble rushed
to the other side of the stage and landed
against six rows of chairs at the side of.
the platform. The chairs slid away and the
quartet went into heap with fifty or more
chairs The shouting and the tumult con-
t1nued. and the meeting broke up IN a pam
demonium.
In addition to the heat of the guberna-
torial canvass, there were thrust in the sit
uation tonight two other disturbing ee-
ments. large party Of Kansas City plat
form democrats had announced their pur-
pose to demand of the convention the IN
dorsement of the Kansas City platform,
practically insuring repetition Of the re-
cent Massachusetts contest. The Eco
nomic League also appeared on the scene
with demands for recognition not only of
thelr policies, but Of their recently named
candidates. These two propositions were
entirely at variance with the wishes Of the
state central committee and the harmony
seeking wing Of the party, and. as result,
the situation at midnight was as confusing
as 1t was unpronaisingxs

MANY CHARGES AGAINST aRE1a.
Bookkeeper in London Office Of Car

A dispatch from London yesterday says:
L. H. Greig bookkeeper in the London Of
fees Of the Carnegie Steel Company, who
was remanded on Friday last on the charge
of forging checks amounting to $500 pur-
porting to have been signed by Col. Willard
Hunsicker, chairman of the Nickel Corpora
ton, was again remanded today after a
brief hearing Counsel for the prosecution
said that probably others were implicated
in the case. which promised to develop
largely. Their information disclosed that
not only had forgeries been committed, but
endorsement and theft Of correspondence
from Ptttsburg to the Carnegie Company.
Counsel handed In forged checks for &c.,
600 and $4,000, respectively. He said the
forgeries were all Of great magnitude The
prisoner. he declared, kept up lavish es-
Establishment at Kingston-upon- Thames. and
steps were being taken to prevent the re-

Counsel also handed the magistrate let

ter from a prisoner In Exeter, which, the
magistrate said, threw quite a new light on
the case. Counsel added that an examina-
ton OF the books showed not only that
Greig's forgeries were for a very large
amount, but that there had been an extern
sive Justification of the books. The prisoner
had apparently been carrying on large bust
nesses. At various addresses in the city
the police have seized a mass Of documents
and correspondence They also discovered
that chloride Of lime had been used in eras-
ing names from checks.
Colonel Hunsicker stated subsequently
that some Of the money had been recovered
but that the loss would probably amount to
$4,000.

The Hatfields and their enemies
have had another desperate battle in
the mountains, and reports say four OF
five men were killed. The best thing
to do is to let them alone, and they
may possibly clean out one another.
The sooner this is done the better. In
several Kentucky counties we know
that trouble was always brewing un-
til the ring leaders bit the dust. We
hope the Governor will stop the prac-
tice of sending troops to these lawless
sections, and on the other hand send
parties up there to encourage the good
work of killing out desperadoes. We
are for law and order always, but it's
sometimes necessary to fight the devil
with fire.
