CLARK a SICK MAN.
Montana Senator Expects the End and
Is Prepared for It.

Butte, Mont, April 25.-NNhiIc his rcIa-
lives and close business associates here
win not talk for publication, it is the
consensus that Senator w. A. Clark is a
very sick man and doubt is expressed
about his ever returning to the town
where he laid the foundation for his vast
fortune ard which he calls his home.
|. It is said the senator is getting his af-
fairs in shape for the end. he recently
formed a company that is to manage al
Of mis- real estate holdings exclusive Of his
mines and ii is expected that a similar
company will he formed TO take over ali
his mines
Besiues his heavy Investments IN mining,
sugar plantations ana railroads, Senator
Clark also owns four daily newspapers,
the Butte Miner, the Helena Independent,
the Great Fails Tribune, and the Salt
Lake Herald.
HOW much is Senator Clark worth?
This question is frequently asked. Prob
ably the senator himself would be unable
10 answer the question with any degree
of certainty. He is rated all the way
from $50, 300. 600 to $500, coo, 900. Probably
$685. 0 900 is nearer the mark
Who viii Get the Money.
There is much speculation as TO HOY.
the senator will leave his great fortune,
whether he viii bcqueath it directly to
his four children and other relatives, or
leave 1t in the hands of a trust company.
His direct heirs would be his two sons, c.
". Clark and w. a. Clark, jr., and his
two daughters, Mrs. Culver and Mrs. Nor
rls. and grandson, W. A. Clark Ill, son
Of w. a. Clark, il. His mother and a sis
ter and d brother are also living. w. A.
Clark, ir., is the only one of his children
living in Butte. His other sen resides at
san Matco, Cal, and his two daughters
1--we in New York. Ii has been reported in
| Butte for a year or more that w. A.
Clark. IL, has become estranGed from
| his father and the rest of the family and
| certain things have happened to lend
color to this report.
1t is not believed, however, that the diff
| ference between father and son would
lead to the extreme of the senator for
getting him in his viii.
If Senator Clark purposes TO make any
nublic requests he has not taken the pub
lie into his confidence. Besides, the Pau
Clark home here, erected in memory Of
his dead son and maintained as q homo for
orphan children, the millionaire senator
has not been liberal in the way OF public
charities.

AN UNDERGROUND RIVER
Manhole Diggers Encounter Rush Of
Water So Feet Below Pavement
of MINNEAPOLIS Street.

Minneapolis, April 26.-Andrew Dahl
quist, the city sewer expert, is not at
all discounted by the young river
which the manhole disgers have struck
ifty-eight feet below the surface on
Fourth street, near First avenue S.
Dahlquist has spent twenty-six years
digging in n under the ground and is
an expert on su~bterranean surgery. The
water sprites have thus far been out
witted, as D%ahlquist was forehanded
enough to have four 6-inch holes bored
through the rock to the tunnel, and the
water is running out that way instead
Of rising twenty-siX feet in the man
hole as would otherwise have happened.
The sewer men have been blasting
rock at the bottom of the hole for a
week. They must still dig twenty feet
through sandstone before the tunnel is
reached. To dam the water which is
rushing in, Dahlquist will sink a huge
steel smokestack, extending above the
possible water level. Behind this he
will fill in concrete, which will hold the
water and enable the bricklayers to
line the manhole to the surface.
The water is supposed to come from
Lakes Calhoun and Harriet and Lake
of the Isles.

Washington, April 25.-"The attorne,
general has been broodIng over that
evidence like an old hen setting on q

has not acted in any way, and won't

resolution calling on the attorney gen.
eral for the evidence against the an

cludes the report of the United States
district attorney for the southern dis

Mr.. Hearst occupied the attention OF
the committee for an hour in the first
argument he has made in his capacity
as a member of the house. He re-
viewed In detail the proceedings in
stituted by himself against the rail-
roads, and demanded that action should
be AXE either by the attorney general
or that the house should appoint O
committee of seven to compile the evil
dence in possession of the attorney gem
eral, with the view to securing action
against these roads under the Sherman
antitrust act.
