Thus denouncing the suit of Mrs.

Mrs. Everett Mallory Culver. as a
plain case of blackmail, Senator

his determination to bring the case
to an immediate trial. He said there
would be no compromise, even if it
could be brought about by the pay
ment OF fVe-cent piece. The SEN
ator characterized the manner in
which the papers in the case were
served as a brutal and cowardly in
vason of his daughters home. Had
he been present. he said ''he would
have kicked the server down the ele-
vator shaft"
This suit against my daughter is
simply an attempt at blackmail. and

ergy | possess that it be brought to
an immediate trial" said Senator
Clark. mo blackmaler has ever got
the best of me yet. and ] don't intend
to give a tive-cemt piece in this in
stance.
IF any settlement is looked for
from me the plaintiff in the case had
better abandon the idea right away.
This case must come to trial or be
dismissed for want of prosecution -

Missoula. Nov. 30.-Joseph Morri-
geau and his 500 head of stock are
still on the F1athead Indian reserva-
ton. Two agency policemen who
made a trip TO the Little Bitter Root
country on the reserve few days
ago n run Mor;igeau and his stock
off the Indian lands. found the stock
man and notified him to vacate. but
he has not needed the command.
Morrigeau has persistently ignored
all attempts on the part of the gov
ernment representatives to collect
the erazin" tax from him and for
that reason the Indian department
decreed that the stockman and his
droves shall be compelled to vacate
the Indian lands, Though he has
thus far ignored orders to leave the
reservation he will eventually be
compelled. it is said. to obey as the
government officials in charge will
see that the orders of the department
are carried out. Further develop
ments are expected in the case with
in the next few days.

picked men for 9, Flathead reserva-

of the interior dep ent for the ex-
pulsion of all cattle n the reserve

said, when asked regarding the move
ment "and will probably be back to-
morrow night | cannot tell how far
we are going, as | do not know"
Major Smead came down from the
agency Saturday and said that he did
not anticipate any trouble in getting
the cattle from the reserve. Yester-
day he made another trip to town,
remaining only few hours. He had
hurried consultation. it is said, with
Major Torrey and returned to the
Jocko on the delayed westbound ex-
press last night. Tonight the troops
started, so it is presumed that his
trip was in connection with the as
sistance which he found necessary to
get the cattlemen to submit to his
orders.
Some of the largest herds on the
reserve are involved in this order,
and despite the assurance OF Major
Smead that no trouble was in sight
it seems that difficulty is anticipated
in removing the stock. Two or three
of the interested cattlemen We're in

that at least two days will be requir-

the troops and possibly it will take
even longer than that. The troops
will occupy their car while at Plains
and unless they have to camp on the
reservation. will be comfortably
quartered.

INVENTOR MAKES ARC
LIGHT TALK AND SING
Electric Lamp Entertains Au-
dicnce With Monologues
and Songs

St. Louis. Mo-, Dec. 11.-Frank Gaien-
ME, Jr., electrician Of the Kin och Tele-
phone Company, has succeeded In maxi
Ing an arc street lamp talk, whistle and
sing at the will of the operator.
Mr.. Gaiennie yesterday gave an inter
estlng demonstration at his work in the
Century Building.
The lamp was wired to a switchboard
and lighted. and in a few moments the
strains of the cd song. "Molhe O." were
heard. The sound was not unlike that
produced by a phnogrnph, but the words
and tones were natural. Suddenly the
song stopped and the arc began 10 re-
produce a series Of short sentences.
In explanation of the result OF his ex-
periments Mr.. Gaiennie said
The sounds that come from the lamp
are made by a confederate OF mine. three
floors above US.
IL have a tclephone transmitter up
there. When he speaks, sings or whistles
into the transmitter the sound Is repro
duced in the lamp Through the Interrupt
tion OF the electric current that produces
the light.
1T is supposed that the contlnual
changing Of the volume Of electricity
changes the temperature Of the electrical
arc and that this changing of eempera-
.ture produces the vibration or sound

FIRE RACES IN
ROYAL PALACE
CONTINUED from First Pass)

The reticence customary at Sand
ringham was observed In connection
with the fire. From later information,
however it appears that Queen Alex
andra had a narrower escape than the
first accounts of the fire indicated.
Miss Charlotte Knollys was fortunately
awakened by the smoke in her bed
room. which is Immediately below the
chamber occupied by her majesty.
Both the queen and her secretary who
were clad only in dressing gowns, es-
capped from the burning room not a
moment too soon, as the fioor OF the
queens apartment collapsed almost
Immediately carrying with It her
maiesty's bed.
The alarm raised by Miss KnoIlys
soon brought the household nre
brigade. which quickly began the work
Of extingulshlng the fire. Sir Dighton
MacNaghten Probyn. keeper of the privy
purse and extra equery TO the king,
took charge of the operations. Queen
Alexandra. who displayed the utmost
composure remained with Miss Knoll
lys near the scene until she was as
sured that there was no further danger
OF the fire spreading.
An examination of the apartments
shows tht more damage was done by
water than by FIRE. a large number OF
the queens treasured knicknacks and
some of her chamber furniture we're
