she has been kidnapped by the gang of

The little girl was last seen by some

her. Mr. and Mrs. Gotta looked for the

perhaps she had gone to her grand
parents, who live in the city, to spend
the night. Wednesday morning the
child was still missing, and the chill
dren who had been with her the even

SCOTT STANDS FIRM.
Agent Still Opposes the Bill for Red
Lake Indians

CASS LAKE, Mimi, April 9-Maj.
George l.. Scott, acting Indian agent
at Onigum, has returned to Walker
While here he received a letter from
Indian Commissioner Jones saying that
the president had verbally ordered him
to ask that the major forward all cor
respondence and copy of all instruc-
tons or advice given to the Indians or
to the government employees relative TO
the bill for the Red Lake Indians
Maj. Scott had anticipated this and
had just been at the Red Lake agency
and held council with the Indians.
He explained to them the good and
bad features of the bill, and read his
instructions from typewriter copy. He
gave copy to the Catholic preacher
and to the Indians, and will forward
copy to the Indian commissioner for
the president
Maj. Scott is opposed to the bill. He
thinks, as Indian agent, he should be
true to the Indians and protect their
interests. He would rather lose his
position than do any act that he
thought wrong, and he feels that the
bill is an injustice to the Red Lake
Indians.

NO GIRL MESSENGERS.
Western Union at Butte Cannot Fill
Places of Strikers.

Places of Strikers.
Special to The Globe
BUTTE, Mont, April 9.-The police
of this city will not permit girls to take
the place of the striking messenger
boys of the Western Union Telegraph
company. Ever since the strike was
inaugurated the company has been
trying hard to employ other boys or
men in their places. Thus far the eff
fort has been without success and the
situation, so far as the company is
concerned, Is desperate. One or two
men, attracted by the offer of from
IS to 81 per day, have attempted the
work of delivering messages, but have
failed to return for work the second
day.
For a week or more the company has
been insisting that it would employ
girls to carry the messages sooner
than give in to the striking boys. who
are backed by the allied labor forces
of Silver Bow county. Protests, loud
and indignant, came from the women
of the city as soon as the announce
ment was made that girls were to be
employed, and resolutions were adopt
ed by all of the women's clubs de-
nouncing the corporation and calling
on the fathers and mothers of the city
to lend their aid in defeating the COM
pany's plans.
The crisis came today. when the
chief of police made the public an
nouncement that no girls would be al
lowed to deliver messages in any of the
various resorts Of Butte; that any girls
found so employed would be arrested,
and that the telegraph company would
be prosecuted for having sent them to
improper places. This order is taken
TO mean that influences greater than
the telegraph company have been at
work, and that Butte will never see
young women delivering messages in
this city.
