Measure for Opening Reservation Ma y
be Defeated

De Defeated.
Helena, June 27.-Telegrams were
received yesterday from the national
capital, stating that President Roose
welt had informed Senator Carter and
Representative Dixon that he would
be compelled to veto the bill for the
opening of the Blackfeet reservation
as it was passed by the senate and
house after a conference report.
The president expressed opposition
to practically all provisions of the
bill that were a result of the confer.
ence. and, in effect, took the position
that he would not approve a bill for
the opening Of the reservation unless
it should be substantially the same as
the bill first approved by the commits
sioner of Indian affairs, which was
not at all satisfactory to Montanans.
Yesterday was the 10th day since

A REAL TRAGEDY
SHOCKS AUDIENCE
Harry lhaW, Millionaire and Brother of the Coun.
tess OF Yarmouth, Kills Stanford White, Noted
Architect During Roof Garden Performance

New York, June 27.-Harry Ken
dali Thaw. of Pittsburg, brother If the
Countess OF Yarmouth, who shot and
killed Stanford White. the noted ar
chitect, last night is a prisoner in the
! Tombs today. Thaw admits the Kill
ing. pleading that his act was iusti
! fable, that White had wrecked the
/ life of his wife. the beautiful Florence
Evelyn Nesbit, whose marriage tC
Thaw scarcely more than year age
was one of the sensations of the time
The murder of White was probably
the most dramatic and sensational
tragedy this city has witnessed since
the killing of Jim" F'iske by f. S.
Stokes more than thirty years ago.
Aside from the prominence of the pris-
oner the setting of the crime was
unique. Surrounded by more than a
thousand persons who crowded the
great open air theater on the roof of
Madison Square garden White met
his death on what has long been rec
oSnized as one of the greatest monu.
ments TO his genius.
Proceedings in the case against
Thaw today We're carried through with
unusual rapidity From his cell in the
tenderloin police station Thaw was
taken to police headquarters where
his photograph was taken and his
measurements made; he was arraign.
ed in police court and remanded to
the custody of the coroner and short
ly afternoon he was in cell in the
Tombs, formally charged with mur.
der and held without bail. The cor
oner set the inquest for Thursday and
said that counsel on both sides desir.
ed that the case be submitted to this
months grand jury.
Thaws defense probably will be in.
sanity and already three noted alien
lists have been called in to report on
his mental condition.
Counsel for the prisoner announced
this afternoon that they knew the
whereabouts of Mrs. Thaw and she
would be produced at any time her

WOOL MARKET TO
OPEN NEXT WEEK
Clips Are Pouring in at the Warehouse, and Buv
ers Will Arrive in Few Days--Auction Will
Begin Next Thursday--Revew of Market

The local wool market will open July
5, and by that time there will be
plenty of wool in the warehouse and
it is announced that buyers will be
here to bid on it. The present ex-
pectatiOn is that some of them will
be here on the opening day, though
most of them, perhaps, may not arrive
until little later. Fred Putnam, of
Hecht, Lehman & Co., Boston, is due
in Great Falls Monday, and F. w.

The warehouse is now filling rapidly.

and the bailing crew will soon COM

The Eastern Markets.
The American Sheep Breeder, in it's
review Of the Chicago market says:
1T is a steady market and quite
good lines of wool have been bought
by the consumers since last report j;
and now that some woolens are show
ing little activity, it is more than
probable that wool will move steadily
to the manufacturers. The receipts
are not as large as was anticipated,
as the diqerence in the views of the
buyers and growers as to wool values
are SO far apart that the movement
on the ranches and at other points is
greatly retarded; besides, the raw
weather of the past month was against
early shearing The distributing mar
kets seem to be out of line with the
ideas of the growers, who have been
demanding the extreme figures for the
coming clip, and at this writing there
is no immediate prospect that mat
ters will improve very much. Hence,
it is thought that slow season will
prevail. The woolen mills are fairly
busy, and many of the worsted spin.
ners have more orders than they can
readily fill, and it is said that the mills
producing the strictly all wool goods
will now enjoy season of prosperity
if respectable margin can be secured

! The movements of Thaw from the

he spent the night to Jefferson Mar
ket police court We're followed by a
great crowd of curious people. Thaw
was treated the same as any other
accused. being handcuffed and riding
IN patrol wagon. During the day
at police headquarters he was pho
tographed and measured according to
the Bertillon system. At jefferson
Market court the accused was arraign-
ed before Magistrate Barlow and at
once remanded to the coroner in the
criminal court building.
The formal proceedings before the
coroner We're even more brief than
those in the police court Thaw was
arralgned on a short affidavit sworn to
by Patrolman Debes, in which the Of
flcer says he got his information from
Warren Paxton, chief engineer of the

was giving the performance last night.

Coroner Dooley directed that the pris-
oner be committed to the Tombs with
out bail.
During almost his entire stay in the
coroner's office Thaw sat with his
face toward the bridge of sighs to the
Tombs. A score or more of photog-
rapher had crowded into the room.
Several times the coroner directed
that the room be cleared, but Just as
often the photographers and other
spectators crowded back into the room.

FOR their future product. There is some
talk OF higher values for wool, but the
consumers do not show any anxiety on
that score, and really it looks as if
wool prices had reached their limit,
at least that is the opinion of the more
conservative merchants. Quite a line
OF fieeces shOrn from sheep fed at near
stations is going to an eastern worst
ed plant at market value, and the con-
sumers will undoubtedly be pleased
with their purchase, as the wool was
deep grown and much of it suitable
for combing purposes. Near million
pounds of territory feeces were sold
to the manufacturers east and west,
and over half of this amount was Mon
tana wool and choice fleeces that can
not but please the new owners. and
this wool is intended for worstel
yarns and will be good spinning stock.
There was not as much pulled wool
moved as in previous months nor were
there as large offerings to select from,
as the long wool pelts are nearly off
the market at this date, and shearlings
will soon be offered in quantities, as
the call for them exists. Until grow
ers are more reasonable in their views
as to wool values, the wool merchants
are likely to be conservative in taking
on the new clip, for at many country
points the price asked is fully three
cents a pound more than similar
fleeces sold for last season. The dis
position Of the buyers in resisting the
growers very full rates is being watch.
ed by the dealers, and the manufac.
turers are this season conservative in
their views and contend that wool val
des are now as high as is consistent
with the sales of all woolen goods.
1t is to be hoped that the recent con-
servative action maintained by the
representatives of the local merchants,
as we'll as those of the more eastern
wool dealers, will prove to have a
salutary effect upon the situation
wherever wool in the country is for

His Last illness.
Mr.. Stephens was taken i'll with
diabetes, from which complications de-
veloped. and on May 20 he left for Col
orado in the hope that a change might
prove beneficial. He was in good spir-
its when he left and very hopeful of
recovery. Going to Glenwood Springs,
he tried the baths, but they proved
injurious, and he went on to Denver
about a week before his death, going
directly to ST. Joseph's hospital He
arrival there, and he declined very
rapidly until he passed away at | a.
m on June IS. His sister and brother
in-law, Mr.. and Mrs. A. w. Reynolds,
the latter having known him from
boyhood, were with him all OF the time
after his arrival in Denver. Alf. ].
