Expedition Met IN the Outskirts Of

cials and a Soudanese Band Indus
triously Blows Horns and Beats
Tomtcms in Honor of the Amer
lean Visitors.
Gondokoro, Soudan, Feb. 1S.--Colo-
mel Theodore Roosevelt, Kermit Roose-
welt and the other members of the
Smithsonian African scientific expedi-
tion have arrived here. All are well
and enthusiastic over their expert
ences and the scientific results of
their explorations.
The entrance of the Americans into
Gondokoro was rudely picturesque
and nothing that British and native
hospitality could suggest was lacking
In the welcome The arrival of the
expedition in the outskirts of the
town was heralded with bugle blasts
by Chief Keriba's band, which led the
van. Chief Keriba accompanied his
musicians. The natives had met the
expedition sixteen miles to the south.
On the way here all the honor that
could be gotten out of their instru-
ments of lrass and tomtoms was fur
nished in full.
Reaching the town the band struck
up America" which happened to be
the same tune as the British national
air and suited the occasion exactly.
Belgian marches were interspersed.
Following the musicians native
porter carried large American flag.
Then came the caravan proper-Colo-
mel Roosevelt, Kermit, the other Amer
ican hunters and scientists and a body
of native porters who have had an
important, If humble, share in the
work of exploration.
Waiting on the Bar-el-Jabel was q
launch owned by General Sir Reginald
Wingate, sirdar of the Egyptian army
and from the vessel was flying the
Stars and Stripes. Mr.. Roosevelt
boarded the launch at once upon
reaching here and, after brief rest
began reading his mail. Many com
munications awaited him.

THOUSANDS FORCED

Strike sOf Few Engineers Ties
Up Butte Mines.

Butte, Mont, Feb. 18.-The strike
situation in Butte indicates prolonged
suspension of all the big mines. BY
actual count the squabble Of Ill engi-
neers manning the big hoists with the
Miners union has caused 5000 men
to be forced into idleness and it is
almost certain that within FIVE days
the Amalgamated Copper smelters at
Great Falls and Anaconda, employing
about 5000 men, will be forced to
suspend.
The smelling works of Senator
Clark in this city, employing 500 men,
have shut down. Six Of the big mines
are operating under adverse condi-
tions. with engineers working split
shifts.
The mine owners will not permit
new engineers to man the big engines,
the offers of second class engineers
afiiliated with the miners being ac-
cepted only to man pumps.
The trouble is purely one of juris-
diction between the engineers and the
Miners union.
More Lands Are Withdrawn.
Washington, Feb. 17.-An extensive
temporary withdrawal of lands from
the public domain was made by Sec
retary Ballinger, involving 2,06S,492

Several destroyers have had their
