The closing Of the Rock Island deal,

people in New York last night, and also

stockholders in the San Francisco pool

cables saying there is so little specu-

likely to be even less arbitrage bust
ness transacted for London account than

say the further decline of u in consols

AN interesting question in regard TO
United States Steel Is the question Of
how large it's earnings will be in bad
years. A partial solution of this will be
found in estimating the probable mini
mum production OF iron and steel prod
ucts in the worst years We are likely to
have. The falling off In iron and steel
production during the depression of
1993-96 will give an idea of the worst

LIVELY MIXUP IN THE
COUNCIL UP ON HILL
Davis Does Things When His Veracity
Is Questioned and Is Elected
With Great Difficulty,

There was something more than routine

OF the city council at Walkervile last
night. For a time it looked as if tho seat
of war had been transplanted troni the
balmy isles of the southern seas to the sun.
kissed heights OF Nalkeryille.
A man named Davis appeared before the
council and related a tale OF trouble that
would cause the tribulation of the suffer
crs OF Mount Pelee to appear trivial and
during the relating of the hard luck story
Alderman hamilton, 1t is claimed. re
marked that Davis was not speaking ex-
cathedra and that as far as he was con
ccrned he was from that banner democratic
state known to fame as Missouri and If
would be necessary for Mr. Davis to de
monstrate unto him. No sooner had The
yeracity OF Mr.. Davis been questioned
than there WAS Something DOING The
air was hlled with ink bottles, upper cuts
and remarks Of some ono having
creased nit out The matter was finally
settled by removing Mr. Davis from the
building, but one Of the sages OF Walker
vile later explained that ii required more
work to remove Davis from the building
than it would have required to remove the
building from Davis.
The row grew out OF an alleged n ylect
Of Long John" Hamilton, to see that the
inhabitants OF the Cora terrace were prop
ery supplied with water and unleakable
water mains.

TYPOS WORKING FOR
CHERISHED PROJECT
HOME PRINTING DONE AT HOME
AND MONTANA SCHOOL BOOKS
is THEIR OBJECT.

For conservatism and fair dealing the
Typographical union Of Butte has ever
been recognized in labor circles as a body
worthy Of emulation, The proprictors
recently raised the wages Of all their en-
ploycs; in return the printers made every
endeayor to have all printed matter done
by Butte people executed here and the
union now has "a Home Industry Com
mittee' which is doing good work
Against the protest Of organized labor,
an initiation assumed by the typographcrs,
majority Of the council saw fit lately
to send the city ordinances out OF the
city to Ie printed. In passing it might
be well to state that organized labor has
these counclmen on record. At the pres
ent time the printers Of the state are en-
deayorn" to have a law placed upon the
statute books making it necessary that all
school books coming into this state bear
the impress of the International Typo
graphical union.
From present appearances the measure
Is liable TO become a law, and in its en-
aetment II would mean that the label,
thus asked for, means that the books are
printed by union or wcll-pad labor, and
home industry is the object in sight
