AN INDIAN WINS
LAND DRAWING
TWO THOUSAND NAMES DRAWN
AT COEUR D'ALENE
Tracts in Flathead Reservation Thrown
Open for Homesteads Are Being
Allotted and Joseph Furay
Gets First Prize
1Rv Associated Press.1

COEUR D'ALENE, Aug. 12.-
Two thousand names were drawn to-
day for the Flathead Indian reserva-
ton, and Joseph Furay of Warsaw,
Ind, was the winner of the lucky num-
Der one. About 500 people assembled
to hear the names of the winners this
morning. and throughout the day about
as many were around the drawing
stand. The weather was cool and the
sky overcast at the beginning, but it
soon became extremely hot. The 1888
applications, each in a buff envelope,
had been dumped on the platform, and
Judge Witten, superintendent of the
opening, announced that 1000 would be
drawn today, 1000 to 2500 tomorrow and
the remainder of the 5000 on Saturday.
The first envelope was picked up by
little Miss Donlan at 1890 o'clock, and
the announcement of the name of the
winner was greeted with a cheer.
Thereafter the drawing became per-
functory.
A striking application was that of
Miranda Dickey of Pullman, Wash,
who received an excellent claim and
who swore she was So years old,
weighed just twenty pounds and put
Goliath to shame by measuring SO feet
125 inches in height. Judge Witten al
lowed it.
The first woman to win was Eleanor
Mcclellan of Missoula, Mont, who
stated in her application that she was
20 years old. Names of six soldiers
were in the first fifty drawn.

CIRCULAR
RAILROAD IMRRoGLIo is TOPIC
OF DOCUMENT
Dgnifed Answer Made by Peking to
Tokio's Declaration of Intention
Concerning An Tuns-Mukden
Spur Repairs
tBy Associated Press. ]

BRUSSELS, Aug. 1.-THE Chinese
board of foreign affairs has telegraphed
to the Chinese legation here the text
of China's circular note to the powers
dated August II, in which the govern
ment upholds its attitude in the ques-
ton of An TungMukden railroad.
After pointing out that China had made
many concessions to Japan, Which still
tried to throw upon China the response
bility for the delay in beginning the
work, the note declares: Japan's' in
terest in the line to be entirely stra-
tegic and in no sense economic.
Japan has sought unjustitied ag-
gresion," the note declares. ALREADY
in the question of south Manchuria,
she has outlined on several occasions
the territorial rights of China and
she is trying to secure little by little
new right not specified in existing
treaties.
Would Prevent Powers
IN the present case the attack on
China's rights is fragrant. China, like
japan. now addresses herself to the
powers. She is conscious that she has
defended not only her own legitimate
rights, but the veritable interests OF
the powers against the pretensions OF
japan"
The note sets forth that Japan, in
announcing that she would take up the
construction of this line without fur
ther negotiations, went outside the
treaty of 1905 which stipulates that
China should have the right to police
the railroad and survey its construc-
ton. The note concludes:
THE interest of the powers is that
no one shall occupy privileged po-
sition in Manchuria. China refused to
grant TO Japan the right to place new
troops IN China and exercise police
functions in China. But in these negO-
tiati0ns China will continue to show
patience ana magnanimity."

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE most
conspicuous movement in the stock
market today was in the Louisville q
Nashville group, embracing that stock,
the Atlantic Coast Line and Nashville,
Chattanooga & St. Louis. The advance
in this group prov ed effective in sus-
tanning the general list against the
force of realizing sales. Union Pa
cifics sudden advance to new high
record, at 207, late in the day, trans
formed the market from weakness to
strength.
The professional element was quite
generally on the side of lower prices,
and the disposition to sell stocks on
good news was believed to emanate
from quarters regarded as influential
in the control of current price move
ments. The movement in Louisville d
Nashville was accounted for by re-
ports of an intended bonus to stock
holders to take the form of a STOCK
issue to cover expenditures made on
the property out of income and the
treasury surplus. There was no author-
itative information regarding the plan'
but the buoyant rise in the stock lent
credence to it.
The accompanying rise in Atlantic
Coast Line was a natural sequence, IN
view of the ownership by that company
of a majority of the stock of LOUIS
vile &, Nashville.
The rise in Northern Pacific was In
response to the strong showing of June
earnings. the net revenue from oper-
alton for the month doubling that Tor
the corresponding month last year.
Another strong point in the list was
furnished by the copper industrlals ana
was common also to copper mining
stocks in the outside market and else
where in the world.
Adyices of additional orders for steel
rails and for cars from the railroads
did not prevent a decline in u. S. Steel:
The heaViness of this stock and or
Reading and Union Pacific, While 1t
lasted, had more influence on prevail
ing speculative sentiment than the
strength of other stocks, owing to the
large extent to which operations have
centered in them all through the pres
ent campaign.

Wet weather in good part of the northwest

was comparatively quiet during the greater
part of the session, but after opening from

and worked up about 10 points for the active
options. Liverpool disappointing, but
Liverpool operators were buying in the local
market. and this together with covering by
shorts and an absence of aggressive selling,
were the principal strengthening forces. The
weather map showed some rain in Texas
and It is the general belief that the crop in
that state has benefited by the recent rains,
but the gulf storm, which on Tuesday was
reported off the coast Of Texas, apparently
