TWO SALOON MEN KILLED.
At the New Town of Trout Creek
Montana.

Missoula, Mont, Oct. 6.-At Trout
Creek, the new town off the main line
of the Northern Pacific, Frank Udell,
a bartender, has been killed, and
George W. Ragsdale, saloon proprie-
tor, dangerously wounded, as a result
of two men shooting into Ragsdale's
saloon at o'clock a. m. Both men
were brought to hospital here, Udell
dying from his wounds this afternoon.
Ragsdale says he had trouble with
a rancher, who drove his horses into
the saloon about midnight. He fought
with the rancher and threw him out
of doors. The rancher went away
with the remark: Don't want trouble
tonight, but l surely will get you"
An hour later two men were seen to
come up to the place on horseback
and open up fusilade upon the sa-
loon. The first volley shattered all
the bottles on the bar al struck
Ragsdale in the arm. He started for
his revolver behind the bar and a
second bullet struck him in the knee.
shattering it. Udell was asleep in a
back room, and a bullet struck him
in the hip and ranged down to the
knee. He died from loss of blood and
shock.

OF the fight with Elliott two days ago,
took careful note of the stranger, and,
OBTAINING him, began to question him
closely. The fellows answers were so
evasive and strange that it was decid-
ed to turn him over to the police. This
was done.

Trade REPORT.

R. G. Dun & Co.'S Weely Review of
Trade last week says:
Aside from the reduction in blast
furnace activity, manufacturing
plants are more fully engaged,
and several encouraging reports are
received, particularly that as to foot
wear. Wholesale and jobbing trade
is well maintained, many cities re-
porting a larger volume than last
year, and business in Chicago was
stimulated by the multitudes attend
ing the centennial. Late trade re-
turns from foreign commerce at this
port are favorable, exports increasing,
whole imports decrease as COM
pared with the same week last
year Railway earnings thus far avail.
able for September exceed those of
1902 by ga per cent and surpass
earnings in 1901 by 1913 per cent.
Buying of wool is limited to i'm.
mediate needs. Record breaking re-
ceipts of cattle naturally depress

Failures this week in the United
States number 226.

ARE starving AND FREEZING
MACEDONIAN REFUGEES DRIVEN
TO SNOWY MOUNTAINS.
Even Now Are Dying at Rate of 200 a
Day-Are Short Food and Clothing
Scenes of Suffering Most Horrible
Civilized World Startled by the
Horror.

Sofia, Bulgaria, Oct. 9,-The fearful
winter SHOWS have set in throughout
the mountain region, and from the re
ports thus far received from authentic
sources, it is certain tnat within the
next few weeks a tale of horror such
as will startle the civilized world will
emanate from the region where the
stricken Macedonian refugees are now
making their last fight against the ele-
ments.
They are starving and freezing in the
wild mountain gorges and canyons
None of them has any food, and most
of them are practically naked. They
are dying at the rate Of hundred each
day even now and this rate of death
will be largely increased within the
next few days.
Some of them have been strong
enough to reach the outside territory
of Bulgaria, where they have been pro-
vided with food and clothing. BY far
the greater number, however, are too
much weakened by the exposure and
privation to which they have been sub
jected to ever hope to reach a place
where succor can be afforded.
Hundreds of mothers with babes at
their breasts are included in the band
of refugees. Their presence adds to
the difficulties of those who might 9TH
erwise manage to get out alive.
The scenes of suffering occasioned
by starvation and cold are said to be
horrible and heart-rending, passing all
description.

French Strikers Battle.

Lille, France, Oct. 9.-The striking
linen workers who yesterday made a
savage assault on this city renewed
their riot this morning, and, after a
severe fight with the local police, in
which the latter were worsted, sue
ceeded in effecting an entrance to the
city
There are countless disturbances in
the streets, the strikers engaging in
hand to hand fights with all who op-
posed them. Assaults were made upon
all the open factories, and those work
ing there were forced to abandon them
and seek safety in flight.
The troops have been called out and
there have been numerous sanguinary
clashes between them and the rioters.
The situation is hourly becoming more
grave, and the local officials have sent
to the nearest army post a request that
1000 soldiers be Immediately rushed to
Lille.

Will Call an Extra Session.

A good deal of pressure has been
brought to bear on the president to in
duce him not to call congress into ex-
ira session in November, but to all
callers who have spoken to him in
that vein he has said that this govern
ment is committed to the proposition
that the Cuban reciprocity treaty be
made effective at the earliest date,
and he regards it as a matter of good
faith that this country should keep it's
word. He has declined, therefore, to
consider any proposition looking to the
abandonment of the idea of an extra.
ordinary session.

The Big Gun Jared a Few.

San Francisco.-The conclusion
caused by the discharge of the 12-inch
gun on Angel island, which was fired
recently by the artillerymen in prac-
tice, shattered windows in Sausalito,
shook houses, knocked down plaster
and caused much excitement among
the people. The Presidio also was well
shaken. The boom of the heavy gun
made the general hospital feel unsafe
for few minutes, so violently was it
rocked by the shooting. All the Off
GERS dwellings were also shaken.

ENcLANp's NEW CABINET.
Government Supporters Don't Think
1t Will Last.

The three weeks cabinet crisis in
Great Britain has ended in a manner
more remarkable and dramatic than
that of it's inception. The new cahi-
net is composed as follows:
Mr.. Broderick, formerly secretary of
war, succeeds Lord George Hamilton
as secretary for India.
Austen Chamberlain, postmaster
general, succeeds Mr.. Richie as chan
cellor of the exchequer.
Alfred Lyttleton, recorder of oxford,
succeeds Joseph Chamberlain as sec
rotary of the colonies.
II. Arnold Forster, secretary to the
secretary of war.
Graham Murray, lord advocate of
Scotland, succeeds Lord Balfour of
Burleigh as secretary for Scotland.
Lord Stanley, financial secretary of
the war department, succeeds Austen
Chamberlain as postmaster general
Mr.. Bafour's new ministry affords
a measure of the enormous difficulty
he has had to contend with in the
task of reconstruction, and it's com
position seems to indicate that the
premier himself can have little belief
of its durability. The most sanguine
of the government express
the smallest hope of such an admins
tration living many months, and the
prevalent idea is that there will be

The withdrawal of the duke of
Devonshire is heavy blow. Had he

nentary session by avoiding legsla-
ion dealing with the fiscal problem,
'ut with him goes the support of the
strong party of liberal unionists in
he country.

ALMOST WIPED AWAY.

st. Paul, Mimi, Oct. 5-The little
town of st. Charles, in Winona county
was almost completely wiped out by
tornado. Several people were killed
and 20 injured, many of the seriously
The dead
John Ebben, William Ebben, Edwin
Murphy, George lessen, William Vest
of Dixon, H.; w. o. Crittenden of
Dover, Jacob Holm, farmer.
The entire main street of the town
was literally wiped out, hardly bust
ness place being left standing. Forty
two residences also were destroyed,
and the total property damage is esti-
mated at 100000.
Among the buildings demolished
were the Central school building, the
Chicago Great Western depot, the
Catholic church and PARROTS Wagon
works.
1t being Saturday, people from the
surrounding farms had gathered in
large numbers in the main street to do
their customary shopping. At 2:30
the storm cloud was seen approaching
from the southwest and there was an
immediate scramble for places of
safety. The tornado struck the town
from the southwest quarter and made
a clean sweep through it, following al
most entirely the line of the main
street and devastating buildings on
either side. Then the residences fur
Their back were struck and many of
them blown completely away. 1t seems
almost miraculous that there was not
a greater loss of life. Four of those
killed were in John Ebens' saloon when
it collapsed and they were buried be-
meath the wreckage. Two others were
in drygoods store, which was blown
away and they were killed by the fall
ing walls. Ed Peters of Dover was
killed in the wreck of the hotel. The
telephone exchange was demolished
and two of the girls were seriously
injured. Mr.. Blankenburg was the pro-
prietor of a large grain elevator and
he was caught in the wreck when this
was destroyed. He was seriously hurt
One man was killed in the street by
being struck by plowshare hurled
through the air by the force CT the
storm.
Communication was established be-
tween this city and st, Charles by
telephone by crew of linemen OF the
American Electric company, which
happened to be in that vicinity, and

Utter Confusion.

Utter confusion reigns in the town.
The streets are filled with wreckage
of buildings, trees and farm nipple
ments, which were blown through the
air. The horror of the affair has
practically paralyzed action for the
time being on the part of the citizens,
who stood about awe stricken at the
awful devastation by the elements. 1t
was some time before crews began to
clear away the debris, which, is is fear
ed, may cover many a sickening sight.
ST. Charles is a village of 1900 in
habitants on the western boundary of
Winona county, and is one of the old
est settlements in the state. The
storm which struck the town with such
disastrous results swept wide sec
ton of the country down the river
division from the twin cities of the
Minnesota boundary, doing much dam
age and cutting off telegraph commune
cation between the twin cities and Chi
cago for a time.
