NEWSS OF THE DAY.
Troops Sent From Missoula to the
Canadian Border-Great Race
Near New York-Etc.
NEW YORK, June 21.-There were
twenty horses in the field for the Surbur
ban handicap at Sheapshead Bay, on Sat
urday. Eurus won in a ,canter by six
lengths; Orifiamme second, a neck in
front of Wickham, Grimaldi fourth. Time
2:12.- Mutuals paid $220 straight, .and
- $75 for place. A magnificent floral horse
shoe was presented to the winner. The
value of the race to the winner is estimated
at about $10,000. Considering the heavi
ness of the course the time was very good
for a mile and a quarter. The number of
'1)ople on the track was estimated at 20,
00 ). At the very lowest estimate half a
m !lion dollars must have been bet on the
track.
OVER A MIILL1ON DEPE.NDED
on the winner. The bookmakers had1 ex
tra help and they cohld not take the money
in fast enough. Richmond was a tremend
ous favorite. His trainer said before the
race that he did not see how he could lose.
Quito, however, had such a powerful fol
lowing that he crowded him close on the
market. Grimaldi, who has a great repu
tation as a good performer in mud, was
the pick of the track. Talent and Rupert
were well supported, and the Haggins are
said to have had $50,000 on Ben All.
There was a great hubbub over the fact
that Quito and Ben All were left at the
post.
LYNI , Mass., June 21.-In a speech
here, Grand Master Powderly said:
"I admit the boycott is bad. It is not
good for anybody. On the other hand the
lockout is bad. If the manufacturers drive
out the Knights of Labor and conservative
organizations like it, then the radical ones
will come and will follow. So I will say
to the manufacturers: 'Beware! Unless
you meet the men half way there will he
those who will not meet you half way and
who will not be as friendly as the Knights
of Labor.' The thing which the Anarch
ist would hail with the greatest delight
woull be the disorganization of the
Knights of Labor. No man should be so
blind as to thrust aside the hands of the
Knights of Labor. I have held back the
tand of anarchy in this country and have
received no help from the manufacturers.
They say there is no discipline in the
Knights of Labor. Perhaps not. But
there will be. We are having it now and
if I command five thousand men, they will
go where I say or they will go nowhere."
NEW YORK, June 21.-For many years
New Yorkers have been able to buy the
fine fruits of California, but owing to the
very high rates demanded by the railroads
the quantities brought here have been
very small and high prices have been
asked. Grapes, pears and plums have
predominated, while apricots and peaches
have only been placed on this market the
past two seasons. The present season the
supply of California fruit in this market
will be largely increased. The Pacific
railroads have been wise enough to see
that it is policy to encourage th' develop
ment of the business of transporting fruit
:Wross the continent, and have azreed to
inun express freight trains of ten cars each
: head of the fast passenger trains. To
at comnodate this fruit these trains will
arrive here in less than seven days from
Sacramento, so the fruit will reach this
market in a perfectly sound condition.
New York will enjoy the luscious fruits
of California this summer at lower prices
than ever known before.
FORT BENTON, June 21.--The River
Press has issued an extra sheet with the
following telegram from Col. Broadwater,
dated Helena, Monday: "Advices received
to-day say that the temporary and per
manent line will go to Benton."
It is reported that Jerry -Collins
shed tears when Col. Broadwater's tele
gram ws received. Rival merchants fell
on each others shoulders and wept withloy.
Real estate agents marked up prices a hun
dred per cent, the river steamers display
ed their bunting and the whole town with
one accord wended its way to the saloons.
To crown all, the River Press added anoth
er column of plates and evoluted into a
six column sheet. To increase the popu
lar delirium, that journal issued a large
extra and the newsboys made themselves
hoarse as they cried it through the streets.
The foreman .vas so excited that he placed
a cut of Cleveland and Hendricks at the
head of the column instead of the Ameri
can eagle with the flag in her beak.
WASHINGTON, June 21.-The depart
ment of the interior has under considera
tion a more liberal construction of the de
sert land law by which, lands of this class
may be more generally taken up and the
work of irrigation begun as early as possi
ijle. An official of the interior depart
ment says: "If people are willing to go
into the arid belts and take up 640 acres
of land, paying what other folks pay for
good land ($1.25 per acre) we are willing
to give them all the oppprtunities neces
sary to irrigate these lands by means of
the expenditure of capital. We are in
clined to relax our present stringent rules
and allow a more liberal entry of these
lands. ; Of course, monopoly or fraud will
be prevented. but everybody ought to
get at these lands who, in good faith buys
and is determined to improye them..'
M1ssouLA, June 21.-On Tuesday last
a detachment of twenty five soldiers of
the 3d infantry, stationed at Fort Missoula,
passed through the Flathead Indian res
ervation en route to Tobacco Plains, there
to encamp upon the British border and
await further orders. A detachment of
Cainadian mounted poliee are also march
ing to the same pointto encamp on British
soil, just across the border and within
hailing distance of the American camp,
This movement on the part of our govern
ment and that of the Canadian govern
ment in concert; arose from a report
that disturbances bf of a serious character
may arise at any time along the frontier
from lawlessness of the people, whites as
well as Indians.
LO.DON, June 21.-The follbwIng
Ameriesas attended the jubilee ceremony
to day: Jtaes Russell, Lowell; General
Lawton, Unteg Stats mAilter tAatrs
Jas. G. Blaine, Meusor Hale, Senator Mc
Alons.
HEULEA, June 21.-4arveyor 4eeral
Green has jutrestrieelvedfla n od 'icto
enediately make acotrat rtheu rvOy
qiof soesulisbron the i's cianmm
vation. Last winter there was appropriat
ed for the survey of lands to be allotted to
Indians in severalty the sum of $100,000.
Of this amount $6,000hasbeen apportion
e4 for the survey of lands on Pryor creek
in the Crow reservatitn.
Gen. Green has writen a letter to the
department recommending that,-instead of
ranges 25 and 26, which are not in Pryor
valley, ranges 27 and 28 be choosen as the
field of survey. These ranges are in the
Pryor creek valley now occupied by the
Indians. There is little doubt but that
the department will comply, as there can
be no objection.
PrrrsBUr, Pa;, June 22.-The first
train that ever run, or attempted to run,
west of the Alleghany mountains with
crude petroleum as the only fuel in its
locomotive tender and fire-bbx, was the
mail train west on the Pennsylvania road
that arrived in this city the other night.
It came through from Altoona on time
and it came without.a stick of timber or a
scuttle of coal to make steam for its mo
tor. The pipes from the 200 gallons of
crude oil in a tank in the tender did the
business. The experiment was a complete
success. Splendid time was made and
there was no annoyance from smoke or
cinders. The process is the invention of
a Russian scientist, and Mr. Dudley of the
Altoona shops has been developing it
slowly but surely. It will, of course,
prove a great streak of economy. The
second section of the day express left for
the east next morning with the same
locomotive and fuel.
PrITTSBUG, June 22.--The demand for
iron and steel is still great, considering
the immense quantity that has been
turned out in this country in the last year.
Generally at this time there is a falling
off. The men don't care to work much
in the three months to come and the man
ufacturers use the time in making repairs.
This year is an exception. Orders are
still coming in for large quantities. There
is still metal to be got, but the product is
getting scarce. There is not a ton of un
sold pig iron within several hundred
miles of Pittsburg. In this city metal that
has been stacked by for some years is be
ing disposed of. In one place over 1,000
tons have been held for almost eleven
years for higher prices and have just been
sold. In this city all the iron and steel
mills are in operation, excepting two.
HELENA, June 22.-The Independent
says: "From every side comes the testi
mony that never in the history of Montana
has a finer outlook been offered for an
abundant grass crop and prolific returns
from cultivated products. It is to be a
great year for the fruits of husbandry and
the aggregate wealth that will be returned
by the liberal weather of spring will, on
the whole, offset every dollar's worth of
loss occasioned by the rigorous winter.
Added to this is the prospect of mining
business far in excess of that of any pre
vious year in the history of the territory.
and the enormous sums to be loosened by
railway construction and the consequent
influx of population and the effect upon
all business enterprise. This is to be a
great year for Montana."
CHICACo, June 22.-McGarigle and Mc
Donald have been found guilty of plun
dering the people. The jury found that
the defendants were guilty as charged in
the indictment. The punishment of Mc
Donald and McGarigle was fixed at 'three
years each in the penitentiary. The pris
oners and their friends were dumfounded
when they heard the verdict. They had
hoped for acquittal and were confident
that if not acquitted the worst would be a
mistrial. The judge declined to admit
either McDonald or McGarigle to bail.
The decision on this point fell with crush
ing effect upon the defendants, their coun
sel and friends. The convicted men
were taken to the county jail.
DUBLIn, June 21.-Several tenants ar
rested at Bodyke forresisting the officers,
have been sentenced to prison at hard la
bor for terms varying from one to three
months. After being sentenced they were
taken to Ennis station under escort of
the police. Crowds of sympathizing peo
ple gathered and cheered them and be
came so demontrative that they were
ordered to charge and disperse them.
This they did with a will and plied their
batons so vigorously that several of the
people were seriously injured.
NEW YORK, June 22.-The $2,000 cham
pionship of the world light-weight prize
fight between Jim Carney, the English
champion, and Jimmy Mitchell of Phila
delphia, came off Friday night thirty
miles up the Sound. Carney won by
knocking Mitchell out in the eleventh
round. It was a hard fought battle and
one of the cleverest seen in many years.
Time of the fight 41 minutes 40 seconds.
It was the first ttme that Mitchell has ever
been knocked out.
NEW YORK, June 22.-Jay Gould's'
health has not improved. He is still
obliged to let business alone. His inti
mates insist he is no longer troubled with
insomnia and there is an earnest effort to
give currency to the idea that he is no
longer a sick man, but the fact remains
that he is far from being well. His office
desk is piled up with business that he is
neglecting for the reason that he does not
feel equal to the task of dispatching it.
His life may not be in danger, but he is a
sick man.
ST. PAUL, June 21.--The Montana ex
sion of the Manitoba on Thuriday last
reached a point some -thirteen miles be
yond Ft. Buford. Heavy rains had been
falling in that country for about half the
time in the ten days previous. The Mis
souri river had swollen beyond its banks,
and is now partially overflowing the bot
toms. The movements .of the tracklayers
were impeded by the rains and mud, but
they have been making pretty good pro
gress notwithstanding.
ST. PATUL, June 21.--Th6 destructive
cyclone which visited Grand Forks (not
argo as at first reported) with deadly ef
feet also entirely destroyed the village of
Memcourt, an inland town about forty
miles northwestof Aberdeen. A few per
sons were injured, but none seriously. The
tornado seems to have covered a great
:deal of ground and to have ctrred death
and destrution in its path.

THE COMING ]LOLIDAYS.
Everyone Preparing--Summer Goods
in Demand-Picnics and
Excursions.
Great Falls continues to show signs of
p rosperity. The business of the banks
and stores is increasing and will be larger
as the wool season advances. The mer
chants are receiving large stocks of goods
and expect more daily. In boots and
shoes, hats and caps, silks and cashmeres,
and ready-made summer clothes, our stores
present a great variety of new goods,
which are all in the latest styles and are
sold at reasonable prices. Our merchants
learn of every novelty that appears in the
New York, Chicago or St. Paul markets
and procure it promptly.
The demand for holiday goods is large.
Solomon in all his glory would have look
ed plain compared with the stylish attire
which the young folks of Great Falls will
wear on the Fourth. The national holi
day will begin, in effect, on the 3d, because
Visitors are'likely to arrive on Saturday
and everyone will be in a festive modd to
render their stay agreeable. It is expect
ed that there will be 400 people at the
grand ball on the Fourth, and that the dis
play of feminine loveliness will be im
mense.
There is talk of picnics and excursions
after the Fourth, which will keep every
one in a festive mood for some time.
Many suiqmer tourists will arrive here
and there will be visitors from Helena,
Fort Benton and all around.
Milwaukee Leading.
MINNEAPOLIS, June 22.-The ball play
ing in the Northwestern league during the
past week was not remarkable by any
means. Nearly every game played was
dull and featureless. The hot weather
may have had something to do with this
dullness; no doubt it did. There was at
the close of the week no important change
in the standing of the clubs. The Cream
City nine still has the lead with St. Paul a
very close second. Oshkosh has passed
Minneapolis and LaCrosse and is now in
third place. The Minneapolis club, as
usual, is winning and losing on the home
grounds. The club succeeded in winning
two games out of the series of three played
with the La Crosse, but they couldn't
keep up the record. The standing of
the clubs in games lost and won to
date is:
Won. Lost.

The National League.
MINNEAPOLIs, June 22.-The big De
troit aggregation of ball players continues
to lead the procession in the national
league. Boston has been on the heels of
Detroit for some weeks, but is unable to
pass the men from Michigan. The national
league clubs, however, played wonderful
ball last week. Detroit once in a while
loses a game, but not often. Their old op
ponents, the Chicagos, wrested a game
from them on Thursday. New York is in
third place, as usual, in the race, and Chi
cago has passed Philadelphia and is now
in fourth place. The standing of clubs in
games lost and won up to Saturday was as
follows.

Democrats Depressed.
NEW YORK, June 22.-A Washington
dispatch to the Sun says the excitement
over the proposed returning of the rebel
bags has subsided in a great degree, but
the full consequences of the political blun
der of the President are yet to be felt by
him and his party. The effect of the epi
sode has been most depressing to those
Democratic politicians who have taken a
rose-colored view of the party's prospects
and they now admit that the outlook all
around is bad enough. In the west, es
pecially, they say the party has been in
jured irretrievably, and in the states where
the majorities have been slender and
whose success might have won the Re
publicans are certain to carry the election
by very large majorities.
Follows our Example.
There are some of the blood of our rev
olutionary foredaddies left in Dillon. Our
national birthdayis not to be entirely ig
nored. At' a meeting of company E,
Montana militia, it was decided to give a
picnic and celebration in Solway's grove
on July Fourth during the day and a grand
ball and fireworks at night in the city.
Appropriate committees were appointed.
Captain Lamont, Lieutenants Moore and
Smead and Messrs. Davidson, Jones and
Andregg were named as the committee on
arrangements.-Dillon Examiner.
Right You Are.
The Manitoba is coming west with
mammoth strides, and soon the great re
gion along the upper Missouri will re
sound with the echoes of the locomotive
whistle. By November the road will reach
Great Falls and then will occur such a
demonstration as was never before wit
nessed in this territory or we terribly mis'
take the nature of the timber of which
Great Falls' business men are composed.
-Dillon Tribune.
Sound Logic,
"To discontinue advertising," says John
.Wannamaker, "is like taking down your
sign. If you want to do business, you
must let the public know it. Standing ad
vertisements, when changed frequently
are better than reaiding notices. They
look more substantial and business: like,
and inspire confidence. I would as soon
think of doing business without clerks as
without advertising."
