been known to the Russian naval COM
mander.
However, it is impossible for France
to anticipate or control the movements
Of the Russian squadron and she can
only direct the governor general to en-
force the regular rules Of neutrality.
The officials here have nc. information
concerning the length or circumstances
of the stay Of the Russian vessels at
Kamranh bay, and therefore they are
unable to determine whether the ships
are actually within the territorial limits
of French waters. But in any event a
temporary stop at such "a point is not
considered equivalent to using the To-
cality as naval base, but rather as be-
ing in the nature of an exigency in

Helena, Mont, Dec. 13.-Representa-
tive Alexander Lehman Of Lewistown,
who was a passenger on the Montana
railroad train, wrecked near TIBET yes
terday, has reached Helena and tells
most graphic story Of the wreck.
The train ran into a snowbank, -
said Mr.. Lehman, "and the snowplow
left the rails, causing the engine to
leave the track, turning over on it's
side. Fireman Samuel Schubert was
pinned beneath the engine, and it was
only. too apparent that he would be
scalded to death by the escaping steam.
Every member Of the train crew,
as we'll as passengers, worked like Tro--
jams to alleviate his sufferings, but
to no avil. From Schubert himself
came the suggestion that caused all to
shudder with horror. sTake an ak and
cut my legs off. It's awful to think
Of it, but If you don It, l III be scalded

Brave as were the men engaged In
the rescue work, none could steel him
self to such task, and the poor man
was literally scalded to death before
our eyes, despite the heroic efforts that
were made to rescue him. -
Engineer Shull was brought to Helena
and IS undergoing treatment at local
hospital. Beyond few bruises, he is
not badly injured.
