Ev. ery one sl waiting, growers, dealers and lnnufacturers; waiting for a chance in some fa2tor of the situation which will allow of concessions. igns are multi plying that the sudden spurt in wool, An which occurred some weeks ago, result iug in the buying of early California, Utah and Texas wools at growers' prices, has completely died out; in fact, scarcely any one appears to have confidence Th enough in the future to pay the prices demanded in the interior. DULL, AND UNBATSFACTORY. PHILADEtPHIA, July 8.-The domestic wool market is dull and unsatisfactory, I even more quiet than the proceeding tio week. Manufacturers are not willing to GO pay present asking price for wool, and hab dealers are not disposed, to sell for lesu cit than last week's quotqtlons.

Twenty cents seems in to be the general asking price, but this dealers hesitate abhot ps ing,recognizing 5a Sthyo that the wools are heavy this vs season.

" An Agreement on the Silver Bill run Has Been Reached by the wh Conferees. sho The Treasury Will Have to Buy Four pre and a Half Million Ounces and S;lver Per Month. FAIrHAVEN, July 1.-Official confirma- thu tion of the big railroad deal by which the 1,01 Great Northern railway absorbs the Fair Be, haven & Southern has been given. In- wh cluded with the FParhaven & Southern in the this purchase are without question the the finest terminal, manufacturing and ocean the shipping faculties possessed by any rail- gat road on the Pacific coast. They include gre over 100 acres in the heart of the city, the several miles of unequaled water front, qul and rights-of-way and wharfs, altogether e51 possessing an immediate intrinsic value ire of many hundreds of thousands, and a cre prospective value reading well up in the ata millions. It now transpires that shrewd bhis James J. Hill has been quietly gathering his together this vast property for months, of thi and that in some instances thousands of vi, dollars have been paid-or fractional and Fa much-needed tracts to parties who orig- aIt inally purchased the same from the Fair. haven company for.a song. EXTENBIVE IMPROVMENTS. 11l The Fairhaven Herald contains many the interesting details connected with this In important transaction. It also contaitus th interviews with Vice-President Olough th' and Chief Engineers Becker and Dono- i van of the Great Northern and Fairhaven b{ Southern roads respectively, as well as be with other officials, all going to show that th this move by the Great Northern "s ' equal in importance to the absorption of the O. O. & N. by the Union Pacific m These ofioalls give many interesting en facts with reference to the Great North- ne ern's extensions east, north and south in from Fairhaven, and the vast terminal y improvements to be made here. All these lines are to be extended as fast as men i1 I andmoneycan do it, and terminal im it provements costing some $200,000 are already under way. BRIGHT PROBPECTS IN ST gE. This interview shows that Fairhaven Is m to profit by its transcontinental line, even or in a greater degree than have Portland "a and Tacoma profied by theirs, from the it fact that the Great Northern will have m line sabot 150 liles shorter, with easy 'a grades to the open ocean, than any other. s Also by virtue of its own contemplated di superior ocean service it will gather here a large share of the Oriental trade, which m now goes southward by routes nearly a 1,000 miles longer. The Fairhaven & Southern is to reach a the Canadian Pacific in ninety days, and the southern extension will connect yith tt 3- the Northern, Union and Southery' Pa Is cific before the close of the present' year, r giving Fairhaven the benefit I6f four transcontinental lines almost before we tc n can realize it. The samne vigor chalac h r terizes construction on the main lines m east. Some of the heavy sections are ia now being pushed day and night by thea h use of the electric light. Over 8,900 tens h of steel rails are being handled to-day by y the Charles Moody. d Miles of streets are being graded, B ss planked and substantially built up t 5o through what was an impenetrable forest n . 10 months ago. A $100,000 system of h twater works is in operation, as well as u re the best system of electric lighting in the a , state. The massive stone, brick and iron ly hotel, costing over $100,000, is under roof. d in Gas lighting end electric street railways 'e are m progress. Real estate transactions ran up to about $250,000 in the past 48 s hours. The city is gaily decorated to w honor of the great railway deali, and the r' rapidly increasing number of visitorsby t t the 85 steamers and steamships already is touching here lends great animation to c le the scene. I C IFairhaven's coal, iron, lumber and Id stone resources are being developed on a Smammoth scoale. It is believed that 1,000 A tons of coal can be shipped daily by sO October. The lumber mills have a capacs- I le ty of about fe hundred thousand feet ry dady, most of whih Is absorbed by city rc improvements and railway extensions asI Sfast as sawed. Lose i. the monuntain. ti About June 4 one of the detachments h of the Great Northern surveyors reached the snow line in the upper course of Cut is Bank creek, one of the tributaries of the Marias. Here they camped and Sol Ab bot who was acting as guide and one en- t gineer went on to look out a route. They ti started out on snowsonee, taking witho them a paeck outfit and provtllntn for four 0 or five days, expecting to return at the C end of that time. Sincea then nothlnghcn been heard from them and it is feared a they cre lost as deep snows have fallen. Sol Abbott is an old timer in Motana H and is well known. It seems hardly pos- F cible that he could mise his way but he o has been gone so long that the worst is feared. This report comes from an old I1 friend of Abbott's who heard the report p from lMcDevitt, Hughes and others on the Marios river who are acquainted with ii the facts. Of the Bridge. On Sunday while attempting to ride t his horse acros a railroad bridge about t two miles above Rlceville, James Milh- I gen's horse fell off on one side and he wanu thrown of on the other side of the bridge, landlgg on some rooks nearly 100 feitbielow.

Mat Dlnn dirove a 'l'tnituN repre sentatlve last evening to the station and terminal grinde of the Great Falls & Gre Canada IRailway where we tarried long enough to observe the many improve meats going forward and to receive from Messrc. Ross and Barclay a pleasant re ception. The grading for the great trans- MO. for trestle, the numerous sitdtracko and the standard gauge tracks that run alongside the coal bins Iot where they are to be loaded with coal, is all finished nnd the iron will be laid in a short time. The company owns 105 acres of terminal ground in one of the prettiest spots in the Sun river valley and the whole of this will be needed for Tih railroad purposes. THE TANSFER TRRESTLE. The coal transfer trestle will be some. thing novel in this section. It will be 1,000 feet in length and 26 feet high. Beneath this will be great bins,for coal which will be dropped from the cars by '1 the opening of a trap door adjusted to pan the bottom of each car. From these blne 1 the coal will be leaded on the standard ceo gauge cars through shutes. Gravity will ser graciously do most of the work, so that Inst f, the transfering of this product will be a tral t, quick and inexpensive operation. An on ur entire train of coal can he mnu on the Gre e trestle and unloaded in an almost in- cell a credibly short time. So also 15 or 20 put e standard cars may be run alongside the pat d bins and receive their fall quota of eni g black diamonds in quick order. Inside br of eight weeks those who desire to see this operation may witness it by paying a if visit to the terminal grounds of the GreatIw d Falls & Canada. The road will be aeper- Th - ation at that time. the RAPIDPRooRESS. Inc "How is theweork on the line progress- not ing?" asked the reporter of Mr. Ross. me "We are making good progress," was ar ty the reply. "The end of track is now with- ash in six miles of Conrad, where we cross yoa as the Marias. We are delayed some by I the unusual number of bridges along the wm Dry Fork, but expect to be across the aln Marlas in 10 days. Then it will be clear are en saillig, and bridges will be few and far on a between. From the Marias we will lay the at three and four miles of track a day easi- ca ly. The grading will be completed to pa of the boundary line y the 20th of this tr month and two or three weeks later the the entire grade will be finished. If t is thi h necessary we will send part of our grad- rin t ing farce across the line to help out. If do a you wishyou can say ositively thate vol Great Falls & Canada By. will be com- At pleted and in operation from Great Falls, tal Mont., to Lethbridge, Alberta, on or he- ton fore the first day of September next." BIG TRAFFIC IN PROSPET. Mr. Barclay, the chief engineer, sees a ws is most encouraging outlook for business en on the new road. "It will be," said he, tel "an important feeder for Great Falls, as c it makes tributary to your city an im- the mense area of good country. You will ar probably be surprisee to see us bringing ' in here this fall 1,000 tons of coal a day, or and there is hardly a doubt but we will do it. In a year these shipments are r likely to reach 2,000 tons dally. Our of market will be prptty much the entire sh state and the railroads will want large sIt h supplies. The Butte smelters will find Sour coal just what they want and we can Wi d lay it down to them at $5,50 a ton, al- of Sthough prices have not yet been detgr- wl mined upon. After the Great Northern is built into the Flathead country you tUr will see us haeuing from the junction ores th we to your smelters and timber for your tir Sbuildings, and in general the "little nor- pr es raw gauge" will play an important parter are around here. I rho _ OTHER LINES TO BE BUILT. I Mr. Barclay said the company will iti surely build westward from Lethbrldge is v to the Crow's Nest pass where fine anth- T racite coal is to be had in abundance and her he is inclined to think this work will be cori undertaken the present season.

Joe Herring's corral in the south side of town resembles the regular Wild West as show and attracts many persons who de- abet sire to witness the process of breakingthe se wild broncho. Joe has a large number bom of range horses which have never known what it is to receive feed and have never . seen the inside of a stable. When broken O5 these horses become gentle in a short time and are very. serviceable. As the prices on each animals are low purchas era are readily found. The intending w buyer selects the animal he desires and i soon a trade is made. In catching and riding the horse re aCo quires the highest skill of the profession- r7 al "broncho buster" and often the danger rT is very great. Two "busters," who are experienced 55 horsemen, each with a lasso, enter the corrall. The animals are started aroond tics the enclosure and soon in the crowding, galloping herd the horse selected comes in sight. Then with practiced eye and skillful aim the circling rope is thrown and fells around the horse's neck. Sel dom does the noose miss the m,'ai. Then comes the struggle. The horse which has never known resistance feels the A tightning coil about his neck; he rears, t plunges, triesto run; two or three men measure their strength with his, while the deadly noose, with every strug gle tightens around his throat. In a short time he comes to a stand, but the J. pressure is not removed, he trembles from head to foot, the sweat starts from a him in drops, he makes a final desperate plunge and falls. Instantly the rope is loosened and a cowboy grasps him by the head and holds him down while a halter is placed on his head. ar Then he is allowed to rise, but he knows nothing only to resist with all his J strength. He will not follow the halter. H Then "Old Whitey," a powerful horse, is a brought out, mounted, and to the horr of this saddle is fastened the halter rope of gp the broncho. Now comes the hardest - struggle. The broncho pulls back with D all his strength, but Old Whitey, who is eaccustomed to the work, lays down to it and "snakes" him out by Vi main strength. Next comes the process of bridling and saddling. After two or three attempt: the bridle is usually in g place. Then slowly and with much care the blanket is put in place. The vic- _ tim finds he is not hurtJ. in this operation and becomes le quieter. Next the saddle is put on and . if the animal is not too fractious the d cinch is fastened before he can get trom us under it. Sometimes the horse makes - desperate efforts to get the saddle off, he Swill rear, plunge, buck, roll, but all to no t purpose. After he subsides from this struggle the rider prepares to mount. To a an inexperienced man this woul.d b a hazardous undertaking, but the cowboy has no fears. Grasping the bridle below the headstall be turns the horse's d head to the side, places his foot in the stirrup and vaults into the saddle. Now the horse makes frantic efforts to throw o fl the unaccustomed weight. With bead down, he suddenly brings his back up, d like a jack in the box, and woe to the sy rider who is not prepared, for he will be 1. sent up into the air as if shot from a cat d at apult. But our cowboy has sers through id this experience before and is ready for d any emergency. After "bucking" a few W 'times the horse usually starts off on a ly mad run, trying in this way to rid himself - of the burden. This is just what the recowboy wants and, wth whip and spur, w ios uh rges the poor animal to its utmost d- speed, This run is continued until the n. animal Is exhausted and before he reaches to the corral again he has learned to obey at the rein and spur. In a few days these e. animals are tractable and are desirable y, saddle horses. S Joe Conrad has a large stock of White Dress Goods.
