ConvictS Work On Roads,

DEER LODGE, May 4.-Acting on the
orders Of the state board OF prison
commissioners, composed of Governor
Norris, Attorney Geueral Galen and
Secretary OF State Yoder, whose re.
cent inspection of the sfa.e prison at
Deer Lodge vinced them tn at some
immediate action must be taken to re.
lieve the crowded condition of that
institution, Warden Frank Conley
started afty convicts out to work to-.
day on state roads between Deer
Lodge and Helena.
Fifty men were placed at work max.
ing brick at plant located Just out
side of the prison walls and forty more
convicts were put at work on the power
site on Race Track creek, where q
plant will be constructed to supply the
state insane asylum at Warm Springs
and the penitentiary at Deer Lodge
with light and power. The men en-.
gagged in brick making will be housed
within the prison walls, but the ninety
men who are working on the roads
and on the power plant will be quar-.
tered in tents near where they are
working, thus relieving the crowded
penitentiary to that extent.
The necessity Of caring for q con-
siderable number of couvicts outside
of the penitentiary walls at this time
Is due, in part, to the recent sale of
the big Conley & McTague ranch,
where q considerable number of the
convicts have been housed In the past.

Roosevelt May Attend Funeral.

LONDON, May 7,-Oficials of the
court tonight expressed much concern
over the proposition to have ex.Presi.
dent Roosevelt attend the funeral oh.
seQuies Of the late King Edward.
AS q private citizen Colonel Roose.
veIt would not be permitted by royal
usages to mingle with the roy atty
gathered for the services, whereas, as
an ex-president of the United States
it would be impossible to relegate him
to the tail end OF the procession, yet
that is where he would have to go.
1t Is probable that to avoid possible
conflict and injured feelings, Colonel
Roosevelt, in the event he attends the
funeral, will be asked not to partici-
pate in the procession, but go at once
to place that would be reserved for
him at the church.

Confidential Services Come High

New YORK, May 4.-John D. Ryan,
president of the Amalga am ated Copper
company, has been sued for what he
claims is the largest stenographer's
fee on record. The amount is $685.
600.
The claimant is VIM. Johnston, who
was Ryan's stenographer and conf
Dental secretary in 1904. He claims
that he assisted Ryan in a confiden-
tial capacity in getting informat alton of
F. Augustus Heinze's interests in
Butte, Montana, and that through his
efforts in February, 1906, Ryan and
Thomas F. Cole secured control of
Heinze's property.
Ryan in his answer declares that
Johnston was employed simply as q
stenographer and did nothing more
important than stenographic work.

Landseekers Are Disappointed.

KALIsPELL, May 3. - Telegra ans
from the general land Office last night
ordered the withdrawal of several
tracts upon which hungry eyes had
feasted, and today there were but i've
claims filed upon by the men waiting
for Flathead ranches. There were
nine selections.
"Sorehesds" and diseruntled and
disappointed land seekers toda made
themselves heard in the crowd before
the land Office door berating the
government for it's methods, and there
was open svowal that senator's and
others In office are manipulating the
disposal Of the lands 80 as to favor q
number of persons who will not be
compelled to stand before the door
waiting for q chance. Montana's
senators were roundly roasted. II was
said by one applicant, who had
spent much time on the reserv alton
looking up location, that many In
dian allotmeuts, which the Indians
themselves voided before the plats
were made up, were never included in
the lands to be subject for entry, and
that In this wav manv OF the finest
claims are being withheld now and
will come up for the autumn drawing
or will be carried out for regular
homestead entry. The air of eager.
ness has entirely died out of the wait
ing throng. Up to date 10 ranches
have been "located" and one dozen
"selected."

A Hundred Miners Entombed.

PALos, Ala, May 6.-Eight bodies
we're removed shortly after daylight
today from mine No. of the Palos
Coal & Coke company, where between
100 and $50 miners were entrapped by

that death was instantaneous.
After the removal of the eight bodies
1t was found necessary to send force
OF miners into the workings to
strengthen the brattices and to prevent
cave-ins which we're frequent during
the night. This and the presence of
afterdamp delayed the work of rescue
for several hours.
