FORMING INTO LINE,
A 1eeting to he Held Here This Evening.
The young men of the city will meet
this evening at the city council chamber
to take steps towald organizing an infan
try company of the national guards of
Montana. Only two companies each of
cavalry and artillery are allowed, which
are already organized. Ten infantry com.
panies are allowed, seven of which are
now organized in the territory. It is de
sirable to complete the organization at
once Io the adjutant general can order
the supply of arms, uniforms (which are
to he furnished free) of the secretary of
war before the 22nd of this month. Ap
pended is the letter of the adjutant gen
I eral which explains itself:
ADJUTANT GENERAL's OraFter ,
IELmENA, MONTANA, June 6, 1889.
J. W. Stanton, Esq., Great Falls,-Dear
Sir: I am in -receipt of your letter of
June4th., stating that the citizens of
Great Falls are desirous of organizing a
cavalry company, and requesting the
consent of the governor for that purpose.
The military code (section 2.) limits the
number of cavalry companies to two, and
that number is now fully organized and
enlisted in the national guard. The sec
tion referred to, limits the number of bat
teries to one, which is also organized and
enlisted, and the number of companies of
infantry to ten, of which there are now
organized and enlisted, seven companies.
It would therefore be a violation of law
to authorize the organization of another
cavalry company, or another battery, and
the authority to organize must be limited
to the remaining three companies of in
fantry not yet organized, permitted by
law.
If the citizens of Great Falls conclude
to organize an infantry company, I will
take pleasure in presenting their request
to the governor for requisite permission.
Such company must consist of not less
than 88 enlisted men, besides the three
officers required. The non-commissioned
officers are to be appointed by the com
mander, by and with the consent of the
regimental commander. Thecompany is
required to be organized- in all respects
as a company of infantry in the Army of
the United States must be, and to have
the same complement of commissioned
and non-commissioned officers. If such
a company is to be organized at Great
Falls, I suggest such expedition as will
enable me to require for it, arms and
uniforms, by requisition upon the Secre
tary of war at least one week before the
first of July. Very respectfully yours,
C. W. TuoaNLn, Adj. Gen.

WOOL STRONGER.
ENCOURAGING REPORTS FROM BOS
TON AND ELSEWHERB.
Facts and Figures Fsrom the American
Wool Reporter's Review--Prospects
Thait Woolens Will Advance
il Accord With Wool.
BOSTON, June 6.-During the week the
market for wool has gained additional
strength. While prices currentcan hard
ly be quoted higher, it is patent to even
the casual observer that concessions are
almost onut of the question, and that the
trend of the market is slowly inthe direc
tion which favors the seller.
California wool has been in a very fair
demand, 14@j18c has been the range for
southern wools and 18@22fo for middle
county, or the former at a clean cost of
55c and the latter at 55@57c. From San
Francisco, on Tuesday, was received ade
spatch to the effect that a cent advanne
had occurred.
We note some sales of fine, new south
ern Utah this week at 17@20c, and one
nice lot of mostly a fine medium, at 2oc.
The clean cost of a fine Utah.is 60@62c,
and a fine medium 56@580. A very
bchoice lot of light wool is held at 27c, but
the holder could doubtless be induced to
shade this figure to effect a sale.
CURRENT PRICES.
Current prices in the seaboard markets
are as follows:
ilontana:-
Fine choice ..e..............4.....
Fine average ........ ................... . I
L-blood choice........................... 225
f.lblood average ..........................20(22
9i-biood choice ........................... 20
h-blood average........ ...............212
I-biood .................................... 21.t2is
Low Montana............. ........10@20
GOODS ADVANCING.
NEW YOR1, June 6.-Judging from
selling prices now ruling in the goods
market, the interior wool prices are far
too high; but there is an opportunity for
improvement in the goods market. An
improvement is considered necessary, and
the developments of the past week indi
cate that it has begun.
MONTANA AND WYOMING WOOLS.
CHiICAGo, June 6.-M- ontana wools will
cost, that is, (flue and fine medium) at
prices now expected from growers, 65 to
70c. clean. Wyoming wools, a large
quantity of which have already been se
cured for eastern accounts, and what is
held at 16 to 18c. will cost in the clean
pound 68 to 75e. Colorado fine will cost
tile same on a scoured basis.
MORE INQUIRIIES.
PnILADEooLPIi, June 6.--Some few
houses report better sales and mnore in
quiries, as the week began to wane, but
taking the market as a whole we note no
marked changes over last week as far as
the sales and call fore wool is concerned.
THE REGULAR THING AT BUTTE. C
A Murder and a Sniacid in Yesterday's =
R.eord.
BUTTE, June 11.-A party of men were
drinking in Ferguson & Company's saloon
yesterday at Rocker, when Albert
Springer and Howell Thomas got into t
dispute over some trivial matter, the na
ture of which is not yet understood. No
particular attention was paid to the quar
rel until Thomas jumped up and drew a
1 37 caliber revolver and fired at Springer
who was unarmed. The shot took effect
in the left breast inflicting a mortal
wound. The victim died soon afterwards. A
Men in the saloon held the murderer un
til the officers arrived. This is the second a
murder since the adjournment of the
grand jury, and a special grand jury will fit
undoubtedly be called on these cases.
A SAD SUICIDE. .
BuTrr, June 1l-Owing to his drunken
Shabits T. D. Featherly had estranged his le
wife's affections and made himself IK
wretched, He took his own life yester- tl
day afternoon by shooting himself through tI
the heart in his wife's confectionery store sI
on Granite street. A letter was found in A
the suicide's pocket addressed to his wife
and dated June 9th, which read:
My Dear Wife: I cannot live without y
you, so I am going to die. Forgive me
for all the wrongs I have done you.

TilE PURE BRED CLYDESDALE STALLION
Brigade - Major.
I No. 2680 English Stub Book, and recorded on page 715 second volume of the
Americau Clydesdale Stud Book.
BRIGADE MAJOR was bred by Peter Ferguson, Kenochtry, Forfarshlire, Scot
d and, and imported by Simon Beattie in September, 1883.
BRIGADE MAJOR was sired by the renowned Lucks-All (510), who gained the
first prize as a three-year-old at Highland Society's show in Aberdeen in 1876; also
the Highland Society's first prize and champion cup at Perth in 1879. Locks-All
was sired by Drew's world renowned Prince of Wales (678), the most famous of all
Clydesdale sires living.
It would be impossible to here give a full list of the prizes taken by this match
less of all draft horses and his progeny at the leading shows throughout the United
If Kingdom. It is suflicient to say that more prize-winners have descended from him
than any Clydesdale stallion, living or dead. tIe himself was awarded first prize it
h the Highland Society's show at Aberdeen when three years old; second at the samn
e show at Dumfries in 1870; first at the same show in Kilso in 1872; first at tile Royai

by Glancer 1st (386), he by Glancer (335).
It will readily be seen from the above pedigree that there is no better and but
few as fashionably bred Clydesdales to be found on either side of the Atlantic aus
Brigade Major. The strength and purity of his breeding has ample proof in his
progeny. Daring the two years he has been in the United States he has stood for
e iares in the very best breeding district in Wisconsin, where he proved himself to
be the most successful sire known to the breeders of the Badger State, and also the
most successful at Huntley & Clark's Toston, Mont,, stables. In color he is dark
brown, with star on forehead; stands 1054 hands high and in fair flesh will weigh
t 1700 pounds. He has a clean cut head, nicely set on a beautifully arched neck,
shoulders deep, well sprung rib, strong loin, thighs full, hocks and pasterns clean
and strong, bone unsually strong, and heavily feathered with long, silky hair, best
a of feet, making in all possibly the best type of a real Glasgow cart horse that has
y been brought to this territory.
