SHEPAUG MAKES EXCITING TIMES.
The severe storm of Sunday made
quite exciting times along the She
paug river. The ies in the dam broke
up, about 5 O'Clock, and made a great
roaring. There was one large log that
was carried down by the ice that hit
the bridge by the power house and
made quite crash but sdid not do any
damage, but little way down the
the river it took Charles Rylander's
chicken coop and ice house The
chickens had retired for the night, but
do not know how many were lost. Mr.
Bader was frightened and took his
horses from the barn that stands on
the bank Of the river

Canada Unlucky Every Time.
Sir Mackenzie Bowel said that twas
unfortunate that in every case when
negotiations have taken place between
the United States and England, where
Canada was affected, the United States
diplomats had succeeded in securing
islands which command most important
points of the Dominion. There was
the island right opposite the harbor of
Port Arthur. In case of difficulty he
said that island would have to be Sc.
cured by the British people, for If for
tiled 1T would command the entrance
to that harbor. Unless that was done
the United States could secure it, and
with the guns they have at present
would beable to destroy the whole con-
nection between east and west. 1t was
the same with the island of San Juan,
another secured by treaty negotiations.
Canadian Interests Sacrificed.
Now" said Mackenzie, 'the United
States will command Fort Simpson.
In every case Canadian interests were
sacrificed" Senator McMullen said
that the decision would create as much
dissatisfaction in Canada as there was
In the Transvaal and Ireland.

ment: 1.-The action Of Amalgamated

shutdown Of all mines of Butte con-

has no actual connection with the de.

close down. As far as the receivershlp

cerned there has been no change In

the agent Of the United Slater Alaskan
boundary commission. in an interview
anent the statements made in the Lon
don press In connection with the
Alaska decision that the United States
had repudiated the Behring sea award
said the statements had no foundation
whatever.
He added: although the Ameri-
can members OF the Paris tribunal
voted n the minority on every essen
tia1 question, they cheerfully Joined
In signing the award. No American
official connected with that tribunal
made any public criticism Of the ac-
ton Of the judges. In my Official re-
port as agent of the United States
recognized that the majority members
were actuated by honest and conscien-
tious motives In their decision.
while the government of the United
States did seek to secure from Great
Britain some modification Of the regu-
lations promulgated by the tribunal it
carried out loyalty and in good faith
the terms Of the award, although the
award has been continuously working
serious injury to the United States"

Butte, Mont, Oct. 2S.-As a result
of the handing down of decisions by
District Judge Clancy awarding the
Minnie Healey mine, one of the rich
est properties in Butte. and valued at
$10,0O0,0C0, to f. Augustus Heinze.
and then granting an injunction
against the Boston and Montana COM
pany, the principal property of the
Aalgamated Copper company in Mon
tana, all the properties of the Amalga-
mated Copper company in Montana
have been ordered closed for an in
definite period. 1t is estimated by OFF,
Gals of the company that at least H.
600 en- will be idle, and possibly 90
600, before tonight.
1t Is Catastrophe to Montana.
The shutdown is the most complete
and extensive ever known in Mon
tana. 1t is expected that the fires Will
be drawn from the Boston and Mon
tana, Butte and Boston, Colorado and
Washoe smelters today. The Washoe
smelters at Anaconda are the largest
in the world. and employ 5000 men.
The effects of this shutdown will be
felt in all parts of Montana, as there
is hardly a county that the Anaconda
copany does not operate in, one way or
another. Wood choppers and lumber
men will be idle, and coal miners will
be out of work in Ealf dozen coun-
ties.
Complains of the Local Courts.
Much excitement exists in Butte,
and the town is thr0nged with idle
miners discussing the situation. The
officials of the Amalgamated Copper
company are reticent in discussing the
situation. Superintendent John Gillie
said: The managers of the various
companies met and discussed the situa-
ton, and decided to close down, as
there was no use trying TO do business
in Montana while the local courts
were so manifestly adverse TO the COM
pany. No orders regarding the shut
down have been received fr"'" New
York, the matter being left solely to
the local officials
