BRAZIL REDUCES DUTY
ON AMERICAN EXPORTS
Secretary Roots Proposed Visit to
South Amenca Already
Bearing Fruit.

WASHINGTON. July 10.-Secretary
Roots proposed visit to South America
has begun to bear fruit. Brazil has
just announced a new tariff which re-
duces the duty on -four and many other
American exports 20 per cent and is
designed to promote the development
of commercial interchange between
this country and Brazil.
Condensed milk. rubber seals. var
nishes. watches, typewriters, pianos,
Ice boxes, scales, windmills and inks
(excepting writing ink) are other arti-
cles on which the 20 per cent reduction
in tariff is granted. But -four is the
most important commodity in the list.
and the duties on breadstuffs have long
been the subject of dispute between
Brazil and the United States.
Failure to reduce the duty on -four
almost caused a breach of the relations
between the two countries many years
ago.
SAN JUAN. Porto Rico. July 10

viewed the Porto Rico regiment and
expressed admiration for the appear
ance OF the soldiers.

BY GANG OF ROODLUMS
John Linehan Is Rendered In
sensible by Men Whom
He Refused Drinks

John Linehan, who conducts saloon
at Twenty and Bryant streets
was assaulted by a gang of young men
last night in his place OF business and
beaten into insensibility. The assault
was the outgrowth of Linehan's re-
fusal TO serve drinks TO some of his
assailants because they were under age
Linehan was found lying in a pool of
blood on the barroom floor by Police
men Douglas and Kelleher and taken
to the City and County Hospital, where
he recovered sufficiently to go to his
home No arrests have been made.
The assault occurred about 1880 D. m.
Linehsn says that he refused TO sell
drinks to two members of the gang.
This angered the crowd and they
pounced upon him. He fell uncon-
scious from the beating he received on
the head and did not recover until he
reached the hospital He says that he
recognized two of his assailants as
being brothers named Scrok.
The police made search of the
neighborhood for the saloon mans as
sailants, but up to a late hour last
night had not apprehended the culprits
Warrants will be sworn out today.
Linehan suffered a slight concussion
of the brain. but the doctors believe he

CablegramRecelved
FromLondon Re
ports the Disaster
StevedoreS to Work
Night and Day on
the Liner China

The once well-known clipper ship
Agenor has been wrecked on the coast
OF Japan. A cablegram received Mon
day from London stated that the yes
sci was supposed TO be ashore at Yoku-
shine. This was confirmed yesterday,
with the additional information that
the Agenor was a total loss.
With the destruction of the Agenor
there passes away one of the few re-
naming links between the picturesque
past OF the merchant marine and the
present day OF inartistic utility.
The Agenor was a famous clipper in
her day and belonged 10 a yachtlike
type that the ugly but useful freighter
IS rapidly sweeping of the seas. The
AEenor was one Of the vessels that
helped to give Old Glory its world
wide fame She went 10 her end under
an alien flag.
The Agenor was a vessel of 1888 tons
register. She was built at Boston in
1870. She was well known in this port,
where she was owned for a long time
and where she once lay in idleness for
q four-year spell. She was bought a
year or so by the Kildare Packing
Company OF ST. Paul and towed from
here to Alaska by the tug Dauntless.
In Alaska she was loaded with
salmon, packed in her hold like cord
wood, with salt between each layer.
This salmon she carried to Japan. She
was purchased by a japanese firm and
was under the Mikado's flag when lost.
China to SAIL Monday.

Orient. viii sail again next Monday
She brought e large cargo and will
take away freight TO the full capacity
OF her holds. In order to have her
ready for sea stevedores will work
night and day discharging and loading.
The usual repairs must be made on
deck. in engine-room, kitchens and
BtaterooEns and the liner is thronged
with mechanics of many crafts, all
hustling in the fulhllment Of rush or
ders. Monday, when she arrived, the
liner resembled q well-ordered hotel
Yesterday she was turned inside out
as the result Of the domestic earth
quake caused by the attempt TO over
haul everything at the same time
She viii take from here many pas
Eengers for the Far East. Owing to
the sailing tomorrow Of the liner Sierra
the China will carry few passengers
for Honolulu.

Wants a Light sentence.

William Friel, the youth who is ac-

robbery of Henry Miller's saloon. Ere
mont and Howard streets, has writ
ten to Assistant District Attorney Will
liam Hoff Cook offering to plead
guilty to the charge against him in
event he is assured that he will not
be given a longer sentence than five
years. AS the public prosecutor could
make the accused no such promise it
is probable that he will stand trial.

DeSoronton Home for Mr..
Needham's Children.

About the 10th of May, Patrick Need
e en% to th take ne n,s p Sga n0ys a Home .hrs at
Toronto, Canada. The home is just
being opened and is under the auspices
of the Independent Order of Foresters.
The Forester members all over the United
States and Canada have been contributing
a few cents each yearly and the fund so
raised amounts to about a million dollars.
The home is for Foresters' children
only-those who have no mother or
father, or neither. If the parents are
both dead the children are cared for
without expense until they are able t go
into the world for themselves. In Mr..
Needham's case he is expected to pay a
small amount monthly to the home. Mr..
Needham is pleased that he belongs to
an order that stands ready to take his
motherless children-the oldest - and
the youngest three years of age-and
give them the best of training and adj
vantages in every way possible. He does
not give up any of his rights to the chill
dren, but has the satisfaction of knowing
that they are cared for much better than
he is able to do and far better than many
individual homes are doing.
This Forester auxiliary is a great bles-
sing to one Dickinson family. and makes
the local members proud Of the order
and its high and bene6tting attachments.
In this connection, it will also interest
our readers to know that the Foresters
life insurance is the finest and safest
assessment insurance in the world. No
other fraternal order has it's insurance
department so strongly safeguarded.
Those who are posted on life insurance
appreciate this fact and are members of
the Forester order.

FOUND GUILTY.
Sentence Of Two Years.
May Appeal. Ambush
Acquitted. Medora Qui-
ct Again.

Judge Winchester finished the Billings
county term of court Monday morning.
Ghisbert Verhasselt was found guilty
of killing a COW which did not belong to
him and will spend two years in the pen
itentiary at Bismarck unless his counsel
are successful in taking an appeal. The
minimum sentence would have been one
year and the maximum five years, but
inasmuch as the jury recommended
clemency, Judge Winchester thought it
would be about right to divide the time.
The bond which Verhasselt will have to
give if the appeal is taken is $1,000, and
his counsel think it can be obtained.
The state made a very strong case
against Verhasselt. John Keohane was
assisted by w. c. Crawford and L. A.
Simpson.
The jury acquitted Joe Ambush.
Geo. Heiser was complaining witness
in this case, charging that his son was
shot by Joe Ambush, the herder, at the
Henry Truelsen sheep ranch. The
Heiser boy was shot in the cheek last
November and the bullet is still lodged
somewhere in his neck. He recovered
all right. The state claimed that And
rush fired the bullet that entered the
boys neck. The defense, while not
claiming to know how the accident hap
pened, showed that it would have been
an impossibility for Ambush to have shot
the boy as was alleged owing to the ele-
walton of the country. 1t is still a mys-
terry how the boy was shot.
The jury could not agree IN the case
of J. B. Stoddard VS.. H. P. Arp, a dam
age suit, and we're discharged.
During the week of court these are
some of the paragraphs sent to the Bis
marck Tribune from Medora:
Judge Winchester had a stove placed
in his tent last night and says the heat
was very grateful to his old bones.
Philbrick left on a hand car yesterday
for Dickinson.
Simpson had a bed made for himself
last night on the shelf of a wardrobe. {
Attorney Crawford of Dickinson has
rooms at Snyder's and is very comfort
able.
Attorney Baker of Dickinson is sport
ing a sky-blue hat just from the millinery
store.
The Tribune of Tuesday contained the
following:
Judge Winchester said he knew he
would be lonely when he got back to the
quiet town of Bismarck after spending
such a delightful week in a live town like
Medora; a town, too, of such historical
memories; memories of Theodore Roose-
welt; the Marquis de Mores; Bob Rob-
erts; Joe Pennell, and hosts of other
noted men. Some of the young lawyers
are thinking seriously of locating here
permanently.
