TRIES TO USE A REVOLVER
White House Police Have a Desperate
Struggle to Take an Armed Insane
Man Into Custody.

an effort to speak to the president,
but he was foiled In his endeavor by
the secret service officers At that
time the man manifested no symp-
toms Of insanity and quietly left the
vicinity Of the church when ordered
to do so by the officers.
About 10 a. m. he appeared at the
executive Office. Entering the vesti-
bule he inquired for President Roose-
velt One OF the doorkeepers asked
him why he wanted to see the presi-
dent.
"Oh, just for fun." he responded.
1.-THE president sent for me and just
want to see him"
Elliott was told to return next
month. He smiled and walked away,
not offering the slightest objection to
the rebuff which he had received His
appearance attracted very little atten-
tion and he gave no indication at that
time of insanity.
All Of the officers. both at the White
House and at the executive offices,
however were warned again to be on
the lookout for the man and not to
take any chances with him.
Shortly before IL o'clock Elliott
walked up to the main door of the
White House. stepped inside and in
quired OF Officer Cissell II he might
see the president
Elliott Becomes Violent.
Chief Usher Stone and Officer Park
er were standing just within the vesti-
bule at the time. Mr. Stone told the
man that ne could not see the presi-
dent just at the moment as he was
engaged, but that he might possibly
arrange to see him after awhile In
stantly, the man having been recog-
nized, hurry call was sent for a po-
lice van. Scarcely had the call been
sent in when Elliott became violent.
The officers and attendants threw
themselves upon him and after brief
but strenuous struggle overpowered
him Officer Cissell made cursory
examination of his pockets, but found
only pair of shears and large pen
knife. The man became quiet, but
refused to leave the White House un-
til he was forced to go. The officers
conveyed him to the police van. which
by that time was waiting at the south
east gate of the White House grounds.
The struggle in the van occurred al
most Immediately after Elliott had
been placed in the vehicle. He drew
his revolver from a pocket which
seemed to be an enlarged watch fob.
AS tnat is most unusual place in
which to carry a pistol Officer Cissell
in his hurried search had overlooked
the weapon.
At the emergency hospital where
his wounds were dressed, Elliott said
that he was a Swede and that his
home was in Minneapolis. From the
hospital the man was taken to the
First precinct police station and in
carcerated in one of the detention
wards An official examination as to
his mental condition will be held.

LOSING THEIR RANGE.
Bonanza Cattiemen in Montana Fear
full Of the Result Of the Rush Of Set
tiers to That State.

S. P. Donahue of the jamestown
Alert, who is visiting in Montana,
writes
Stockmen of Montana are discour
aged over the low prices of cattle and
will hold them for higher prices. Late
rains have left the ranges in eastern
Montana in fine shape. The arrival Of
many settlers and owners of small
herds during the past year is worrying
the cattle kings. A number will pur
chase land and continue, while others
Will go out of business as soon as they
can do so without losing too much
money. Pierre Wiebaux. one of the
greatest cattle owners in Montana,
recently purchased from the Northern
Pacific 26,000 acres of grass land. This
is part of his old range He will en-
gage in cattle raising less extensively
than in the past In the vicinity of the
mountain ranges the loco weed causes
losses OF nOrSeS, cattle and sheep in
great numbers The animals become
crazed after eating the weed and waste
away. The government had a couple
of professors investigating the trouble
in the vicinity of Livingston last week
and efforts will be made to find cure
for animals afflicted in this way.
People of this state are greatly in
terested in irrigation and the money
appropriated by the government for
this purpose will all be used advan-
tageously. Thousands of acres of land
will be reclaimed Some of the vege-
tables raised by irrigation are not at
all palatable. being soft and unlike the
superior quality of those raised in
other states in the regular way The
same fault is to be found with the
fruits.
