COMMITTEE WAS
NOT PREPARED
Reports on Feed Wires and
Milk Ordinance Was Not
Submitted to Council.
WILL MAKE NOTIFICATIONS
ALMOST CERTAIN THAT MILK
MEASURE WILL BE ALTERED
CONSIDERABLY BEFORE IT IS
ADOPTED BY COUNCIL.

The committee on ordinances and
franchises reported last evening at
council meeting that it was not as yet
ready to report to council in regard
the milk ordinance or the matter Of
compelling the Terre Haute, Indiana
polls and Eastern traction company
to remove its feed wires from Main
street. These two matters will be
ready for councils consideration at
the meeting February 1, in all prob
ability. Nevertheless an idea as to
what would be in the result was given
last evening in discussion of the sub
jects. Council will no doubt pass a
milk ordinance modified greatly to
that presented by DR.. Charles Bond
city health officer and it will also
probably give the traction company
the permission to allow their feed
wires to remain on Main street, be-
cause of the enormous expense at
tached to making a change to A street
as proposed.

City Attorney r. ]. Study, one OF
those who was most insistent in his
demand that the city compel the re-
moyal Of the wires, stated that he had
talked with officials OF the traction
company and found that they would
be put to an enormous expense to
make the change.

II ANSAS CITY, Nov. 22.,-The turn
ing point in the revolution in
Nicaragua is imminent, according
to private advices from Bluefields, re-
ceived by owners of one of the largest
plantations in that country, here to-
day The information came by mail
and was dated November 12.
Briefly stated, the situation is sum-
med up by the correspondent as fol-
lows:
Government forces now hold Grey
town, which is generally conceded to
be the most important station, strate-
gically, on the east coast. Greytown
is on the San Jaun river, which joins
the east coast with the west by way
of Nicaragua and Managua lakes, max
ing the city the key to the Atlantic
ports.
Revolutionists hold Bluefields, but
government forces are reported to be
closing in on the town from the west
and south in such numbers that
if the revolutionists don't capitulate in
few weeks, they must be routed from
the city.
Large bodies of government forces,
it is reported, will be sent through the
east coast at the close of the rainy
season, which is near Government
forces on the east coast are merely
doing police duty and holding the rev.
olutionists in check until the large
army can arrive.
The declaring of provisional gov
ernment by the revolutionists caused
an influx Of desperate characters of
various nationalities from all Central
American ports AS nearly all the
business of the east coast is in the
hands of foreigners, it is difficult for
revolutionists to muster in force. Few
Spaniards are taking part in the re-
volt.

STATE BOARD OF EXAMINERS SENDS A
REPLY TO THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Serves Notice That Board Will Not Exceed Appropriations
Asks Chamber to Use Its Influence With Quarry
Lessee to Reduce the Cost of Stone

BY these provisions the legislature
fixed the maximum cost of the wings,
and prohibited, rather than permitted,
the giving of bounties by the board
for Montana material. We regret that
Columbus stone has not been offered
tusing the language of the law as
cheaply as material of like kind and
quality can be procured elsewhere.
For your further information and
in justice to Messrs Andrews, Link
and Haire, the architects, we desire to
state that on April 2S, at one of the
early meetings of the board, Mr.. ia
cobs, the lessee of the Columbus quar-
ries, appeared before the board and
submitted sample of his stone and
advocated its use. He was informed
that the color of the sample submitted
was considerably different from that
in the present building, but that as
it was not likely that stone Identical
in color with that in the present
building, could be procured, the use
of his stone would be approved, pro-
vided he would make a satisfactory
price therefor. He then stated that he
could furnish stone to conform to the
architectural features of the stone in
the present building at about So and
1925 per cubic foot. These figures
on stone were given to the architects
as basis for the cost of stone, and
they weer directed to design the wings
to cost. when completed, about, $400,-
900. The contract for the construction
of the wings, including the foundations
as designed, has been let for $407,-
572.24, the cost of the stone being
very close to the figures given to the
board on April % by Mr.. Jacobs.
"There will be approximately $4,000
cubic feet of stone used in the wings,
and the price given by Mr.. Jacobs to
the contractors for furnishing the
stone was $161,751 Had Mr.. Jacobs,
on November 10, given the contractors
the same price he gave the board on
April IS, his stone could have been
used
ITO design and build wings of the
size, outline and architectural features
to conform to the present building.
for the money appropriated by the leg
islature, has been found 10 he no easy
task The present building is to be
added to, and, that an architectural
monstrosity may not result, wings of
certain size, outline and general
appearance must be constructed. Re-
lying upon the statements of Mr.. ia
cobs. made on April %, as to the cost
of his stone, the wings were designed

is produced in the state of Montana
and can be procured as cheaply there
in as material of like kind and quality
can be procured elsewhere, and, pro-
vided, further, that the total cost of
the erection and furnishing of the
said wings, including steam heating
apparatus and other fixtures shall not
exceed the sum of $500,O00, and this
board shall at all times have this OBJ
ject in view, and all plans accepted,
and all contracts awarded, shall be
accepted and awarded only after the
board shall be satisfied that the cost
of the wings, when they shall be COM
pleted and furnished, shall not exceed
said sum. m.'-Section XIV, Chapter SO,

0ELENA, Mont, Nov. 22-That the
lessee of the Columbus stone
quarries last April told the state
board of examiners that the stone for
the capitol wings would cost between
81 and 1925 per cubic foot, and then,
after the plans for the building had
been drawn, gave the contractors a
price of almost So per cubic foot, is
the charge contained in a statement
issued by the state board of exam
iners today. This difference in price
is said by the board to be the only
reason why the contractors will prob
ably use Bedford stone in place of
Columbus stone
Stating emphatically that the board
will not exceed the appropriation for
the capitol wings, the board suggests
that the pressure now being brought
to bear on the state officials might
be turned upon the lessee OF the Co.
lumbus quarries with the idea of hav-
ing him give the contractor a better
price for the stone.
The boards statement, which is in
the form of a letter to the Billings
Chamber of Commerce, in reply to the
resolutions of that body, is as fol-
lows:
Your letter, dated Nov. 15, rela-
tive to the stone to be used in the
construction of the wings to the cap
itol, has been received.
Your letter indicates that you have
been given some incorrect informa-
ton. This board has not selected, nor
has it required the use of Bedford
stone. The contractor can use either
first-class Columbus or Bedford
stone that will harmonize in color
with the stone in the present build
ing. Inasmuch as Bedford stone will
cost the contractor $102.500, f. o. b.
cars, Helena, and the Columbus stone
at the Same place will cost $161,75
or a difference of $59,251, it seems
likely that Bedford stone will be used.
In letting the contract, the cost
of the Bedford stone was used as a
basis, and the contract permits, but
does not require, the use of that
stone. Your attention is called to the
following specific limitations as to the
cost and use of material placed upon
the board by the law providing for
the construction of the wings:
The board shall procure all ma
terial used in the construction of said
building from the products of the
state of Montana, provided this same

Fierce Gales Are
Raging on the
Great Lakes

THICAGO, Nov. 22.-Rain and sleet
driven by wind that at times
registered 4S miles an hour,
marked the storm that has ragged all
day on Lake Michigan and through
out the great lakes region. Only a
few vessels braved the gigantic waves.
In the morning the government life
saving crews answered an appeal for
help from the crew of the freighter
Boston, which, after battling all night
was thrown rudderless and beyond
control upon sandbar near Villa
mette,. suburb north of Chicago.
Eight of the crew of 18 men elected
to leave the vessel which was fast
on the sand and were taken by the
lifesavers to shore.
The government weather office
forecasts continuance of the storm
throughout the night with snow and
lower temperature. Much anxiety is
felt for vessels known to be out OF
reach of safe harbors.

I'M of officials and leading counsel

course of action following the adverse
decision in the governments suit

Thirty days are allowed before the
decree takes effect, and within that
time the form of the appeal which the
corporation announced it would make
to the supreme court of the United
States will have to be perfected.
In speaking of the decision today,
John d. Archbold, vice president Of
the company, took an optimistic view.
He said:
II believe the decision will result in
legislation looking toward the repeal
of the Sherman antitrust act, for un-
der that law it is not only impossible
for any corporation to transact busi-
ness, but that co-partnerships may be
attacked. / believe that the officials
at Washington are coming to the view
that the law is too active, and even
Roosevelt himself shares in that opin-
ion."
