aate committies for the occasion. The
committee held, several meetings yes
terday, and at the adjourned citizens'
meeting held at the city hall last night
reported a full list of committees, about
300 names in all, to take charge of the
various departments.
The report from the executive commit
tee was read, and it was then requested
by Mayor Stephens that those named
upon the several committees should take
action at once and meet at the city hail
tonight at 8 o'clock to effect a thorough
organization and at once proceed to
work.
It was urged that it is of special im
portance that the finance, invitation,
transortation and printing committees
should proceed with their work imme
diuately. There undoubtedly will be a
great many visitors in the city on that
day from surrounding communities who
will come to see the president, and the
opinion is expressed that the city should
extend an invitation to the citizens re
siding outside the city to come here.
The executive committee last night
disposed of the matter of arranging for
a ladies' reception committee to enter
tain the female members of the presi
dential party. The ladies' committee
will consist of the wives of the gentle
men who constitute the general recep
tion committee, who are to meet and
organize upon the call of Mrs. L. G.
Smith, who has been delegated to per
form that function.
One of the features of the president's
reception will be a company of young
boys, numbering 15 in all, dressed in
military attire, under the command of
Capt. Hallahan. The young men will
each carry guns captured from the Fili
pino army, which are trophies brought
home from the Philippine islands By
Capt. Hallahan himself.
While here the president and Mrs Mc
Kinley will undoubtedly be presented
with an appropriate souvenir made ot
copper and artistically designed.
M. B. Greenwood has been selected as
custodian of all funds collected to de
fray the expense of the reception.
NO SETTLE MENT YE T IN SIGHT
Machinists Holding Important Meet
ing Today, But Foundry Trouble
Is Not Declared Off.
(Special to Inter Mountain.)
Anaconda, May 11.—Dan McDonald,
the labor leader, and a committee of the
striking machinists held a conference
with Superintendent Hickey for about
an hour yesterday afternoon, but failed
to arrive at any definite conclusion as
to the matters at issue between them.
The strikers held a meeting last night,
and have beçn in session nearly a'.l
day, but their deliberations had
amounted to nothing up to 3 o'clock this
afternoon, at which hour no steps had
been taken toward calling the strike oft
President O'Connor of the machinists'
union said -this afterj)OQn' that he dil
not believe that a settlement would be
made today, yet it might happen to
night.
The main contention now seems to be
that Superintendent Hickey absolutely
refuses to take back some of the men
who struck. So far as wages are con
cerned, the company has granted every
thing asked for, but with the foundry
running as an ordinary repair shop, Mr.
Hickey declares that he has not suffi
cient work to take on more men, and be
sides, he undoubtedly intends to choose
whom he shall employ, and not allow
the union to dictate to him.

Girl Will lose Millions If She
Weds a Penniless Artist.
White Plains, New York, May 11.—
The romantic story that Miss Fannie
McComb would lose all but a small por
tion of her share of her father's estate
if she did not marry Louis Herzog, the
Philadelphia artist, should have been re
versed. Now that the terms of the will
have been made public it is learned
that if she does marry him she will only
get $15,000 per year and $30,000 for her
children when she dies, instead of
$3,000,000.
Her father, James Jennings McComb,
made his fortune in the arrow-tie pro
cess of cotton batting, and his life was
full of romance. He invented the pro
cess and found Frederick Cook had se
cured a foundation patent, different in a
way but. of intrinsic value. Cook of
fered to sell him his patent, and his
prospective father-in-law, R. W. Rayne,
loaned him the money to buy it, pay
ing $25,000. The invention was an in
stant r.uccess and was contested in all
the courts of the country.
in addition to the $15,000,000 he left by
w ill there are vast tracts of land in
western Louisiana and Texas on which
has just been discovered and whose j
lue will amount to millions instead of
tiie few hundreds mentioned in the will.
While his fortune is given as $16.000.000,
that is the sum he made from his arrow
tie process alone and he made a large
fortune other wavs.
When the will was offered for pro
bate, there was no objection, so there
will lie no contest. Under tne will each
of his four children will receive $6,000
per year income and one fourth of the
estate after the various bequests are
paid. Her friends say site will not give
up her fortune to marry Herzog, but
looking for some such action on the
part of iter father she secretly married
her artist ahout a year ago.
Her mother is very ill in the great pul
aee at Estherwood, and it is Maid her
illness is caused by the suddenly ac
quired knowledge of her daughter's se
