growers are now demanding % cents
and upward. AS in Montana only o
small amount has been taken so far
this season.
"Clips are being readily taken in
Idaho at q cents as compared with 1G
to II cents last year. Similar advan-
ces rule in the other wool growing sec.
tions. The determined position main
tanned by the sheepmen is strength
ened by the fact that owing to several
years of prosperity they are in great
measure independent of cash advan-
ces, contrary to their position in other
years. The outlook for lower prices
is, indeed, far from encouraging. It
seems as II only severe calamity in
the business world could weaken the
general situation, and such a possibii-
ity at the present is remote.
"Not by any means Is it asserted
that wool merchants will pay the
prices asked by growers, but it is quite
certain that they will have to pay ad.
vances over the values Of year ago.
The matter is truly serious one.
Twenty-Five cents In Montana with
about two cents additional to land
wool in Boston makes a cost Of about
IS cents secured on this market, while
the present limit fixed by manufac-
turers for such wool now for sale here
is 10 cents. M.%
'"The question naturally arises, what
will be the outcome? Will the grower
accept prices more In reason with the
existing basis In Boston, or will he re-
fuse, and thus throw the onus on the
shoulders of the wool merchant and
the manufacturer? If he does the
latter, either the merchant will lose
money or the manufacturer will be
obliged to pay higher prices for his
wool. In the event Of the manufac-
turer being forced to buy his raw ma,
terial at advances, goods will neces-
sarily have to be sold on niger basis.
The prices at which the latter were
opened this season tended to make
buyers conservative in their purchase
es. What, then, will be their attitude
If still further advances are inaugu-
rated year from now?
However, the law of supply and de-
mand of raw material regulates the
prices of the finished product. If
wool markets augment or simply main
tain the present strength, advances
along the line seem to be the only SOL
ution of the matter.

Smith, the desperate, who killed Po-
liceman Hanlon of this place last
week, and who later killed Sheriff
Shaver and Captain Henderson of the
Oregon national guard, was killed dur

Era, Clackamas county. Smith was
surprised in thicket where he had
hidden, and was shot through the head
before he could use his weapons.
Harry Draper of Spokane had two
bloodhounds in leash which were
leading him through the woods on the
trail of the outlaw. The dogs led
Draper within three feet of Smith,
who was crouching behind a log.
"Are you Smith" demanded Draper.
YES" was the answer
Both men reached for their pistols,

DECIDED THAT THE CITIZENS
COMMITTEE SHALL ACCEPT

San Francisco, May 2-The first
definite proposition for furnishing
money on a large scale with which to
rebuild part OF the burned section of
the city was made public during the
day when it was announced that syn,
dicate OF New York capitalists has
agreed to advance $10O000,000. The
news came In telegram received by
w. F. Herrin, chief counsel Of the
Southern Pacific, from United States
Senator Newlands of Nevada, who had
large interest in the Palace hotel.
Senator Newlands stated that New
York financiers have virtually con-
sented to supply the money on bond
and mortgage basis. The names of
the New York men were not given.
The offer is under discussion by the To-
cal finance committees.
II was decided that the citizens COM
mittee shall accept all offers OF aid
from foreign countries. This decision
was reached when a communication
was received through japanese official
sources asking II the citizens would
receive the contribution of 100000
yen made by the emperor Of Japan and
declined by the United States govern
ment. The finance committee holds

INDUSTRIAL REFLECTS OLD OFFICERS

The Wednesday night meeting of
the Havre Industrial Association was
attended by a number of the represen-
tative business men OF the city. This
being the first meeting in May was
the occasion for the annual election of
officers and consequently many were
on hand who do not attend regularly.
The road committee, Messrs. Geo.
M. Purnell, Geo. T. Sanderson and
Road Supervisor Geo. Heron who
were appointed recently to try and ad-
just the differences with Joseph Vail
don over the south road was received
and accepted. The committee accom-
panied County Commissioner A. Ell.
Reser and G. NJ. Sedgwick over the
road last week and all held confer
ence with Mr.. Validon which will
doubtless result in the acceptance of
the new route suggested by Mr.. Vail
don and which will shorten the road
about two miles. The committee re-

The local money stringency was
somewhat relieved when the banks

W00LMEN GET THE MONEY
Prices of Wool Still Mounting and Mon
tana Growers Who do Not Hurry
VIII Reap the Benefit.

The wool growers of Montana are tc
congratulated upon their prospects for
marketing this years clip. Never
within the last fifteen years the prices
at this particular time of the year
been better. Twenty-Five cent wool
will be realized this year and the grow
ers Of this section Of the state are feel
ing pretty we'll, thank you. 1t seems
only few years since they were rust
ling around trying to induce some
lordly representative of Boston COM
mission house to make them an adj
vance of four cents. Regarding the
increased prices of wool, the CONNER
cial Bulletin Of Boston says:
"The time for marketing the 1906
wool clip Of the United States is near
at hand, and the price question is ac-
cordingly one of vital interest to wool
merchants and manufacturers. Dur
ing the past year there has been a re-
vival In the manufacturing industries
in Europe with consequent increased
demand for raw materials, while the
prosperity of our own country has con-
tinued without cessation. England
and the continent have shown by their
activity in home and primary markets
their need of wool for consumption
The London auctions pulse of the
worlds wool markets-advanced stead
lily from sale to sale, until finally pur-
chases for America were made on a
higher basis in January and March
than similar woods in Boston could be
sold for. At the same time the mills
of the United States have been gener-
ally we'll occupied, and prices for the
raw material have shown no decline
from a legitimate basis of values.
Naturally, all Of these facts have
had their effect on the western sheep
men, who closely observe the trend of
the different markets, and are sympa-
thetically swayed by it. In fact, so
much have they been dominated by
outside conditions that they are now
holding up for prices that
are beyond the dreams of several years
ago. In Montana there has been little
or no contracting this season, owing
to the fact that growers want Is cents
for average clips while they show no
inclination to put figure on the bet
ter ones. A year ago contracts were
freely made at prices ranging from 20
to % cents. The highest price at
which Wyoming wool was contracted
Tor last spring was 49, cents, whereas

Paris, May 2.-The long dreaded
May day failed to bring the revolution
which inffammatory journals predict
ed, but it brought plenty of violence.
The labor districts, which thousands
of troops controlled with difficulty
and even central portions Of Paris,
are armed camps, regiments Of in
fantry and cavalry being about the
Arc de Triomphe, the Bourse, the
Bank Of France and the great railway
station, while military sentinels pace
before private banks and establish
ments. The main thoroughfares in the
residential portion are tranquil.
In the west end, far from the riots,
people were disposed to treat the
events in the labor quarters as home
less efferveseences. They were, how
ever, much more than that Through
out the afternoon dragons, Republi-
can guards and cuirassiers charged
disorderly masses, sweeping the Place
de la Republique and the broad Boule-
ward de Magenta Toward nightfall
cavalry charged with drawn swords
and many persons were wounded. The
manifestants overturned omnibuses
and threw up hasty barricades. Over
1000 arrests were made
Did Not Become Revolt.
At no time did the demonstration
reach the magnitude Of revolt. 1t
was rather q leaderless tumult In
which the serious labor element, strug-
Cling for a principle, was hopelessly
confused with violent agitators, an
archists, revolutionists, roughs and a
large number of the curious. The
workmen succeeded neither in form
ing professions nor In assembling
more than scattered bands. Their
chief action was a reunion OF several
thousands in the labor exchange, at
which resolution was adopted not to
return to work until tho eignt-hour
day shall have been granted.
The worst hour OF the day came at
5 O'Clock p. M, when the police prac-
tically lost control and were COM
PEELED to rely on the mounted troops.
The latter, forming in lines twenty
files across and fifteen yards apart,
swept around the Place de la Repub-
1iQue, driving the disorderly crowds
into the surrounding streets. Most of
the mob sought refuge in the Bou1e-
ward de Magenta and at the Quai de
Valmy, which became centers of dis
order Here trumpets sounded re-
peated but vain commands to dispense :
and the cavalry galloped into the
crowds, trampling and injuring many.

st. Petersburg, May 2.-Absolute
confirmation of the reported retire
ment OF Premier Witte, which has
been the sole topic of conversation in
political circles during the day, is
still lacking, but in St. Petersburg only
few skeptics who have heard the cry
OF wolf with reference to the pre-
mier's resignation too often, express
doubt that the once powerful leader
has surrendered the reins. Count
Witte himself is as silent as the
sphyny. During the day he baked by
his grim reticence an attempt to draw
him out, this attempt having been
made by a caller to whom he had fire.
quently given his confidence
In the course of a conversation re-

yentured to remark to the premier,

except the noncommittal indeed"
and when a hattering reference to the
weakness caused ON the Moscow and
st. Petersburg bourses by the report
of the resignation had shared the came
fate, the visitor desisted.
A strong intimation was given that

resignation will not be announced un-

At night vehicle traffic was com
pletely suspended. Cabs, omnibuses
and street cars were not running, the
result being to give the usually busy
houlevards singular aspect Of deser-
t1on. Enormous crowds Of curiosity
seekers filled the streets. The opera
and other state theaters were open,
the opera having two squadrons of
cuirassiers in the basement while
Felix Weingartner conducted a Bee
thoven and Berlioz festival in the audi
torium. Ten Of the leading theaters
closed on account of the exceptional
conditions. The banks were closed
all day.
Several Bombs Discovered.
The night has been quiet through
out. Several bombs were discovered
by the police but none was exploded.
The bombs were taken to the munich
pal laboratory for examination.
A further attempt was also made to
derail the Tidal trian to Dieppe. On
the Western railway a heavy rail was
placed on the track near Rouen, but
contact with the locomotive threw the
obstacle from the track.
The temper of the workmen is
threatening. They claim that the DO
lice acted brutally and cite many in

a formal invitation be extended from
the association to the State Arie in
viti-. them to come to Havre in 1907.
Mayor NeWman4for the city said that
he would use hit best endeavors, per-
sonally and officially to further the
project, and every person present vol
unteered themselves as a committee
of one to boost for the meeting.
Some two weeks ago committee
consisting of L. Newman, Daniel
Boone and e. C. Carruth was ap-
pointed to secure some one qualified
and willing to fill the Office of secre-
tary and the committee reported as
follows: THAT the Association
should elect Dan Vourse at a sasary
of s25 per month to be paid by an as
sessment, Or attorney Gentry at $40
per month to be paid out of the funds
of the Association. The report was
ad opted and the matter of election
passed until the order of election of
officers should be reached.
