That these troubles are now practically ended is conclusively shown by the fact that all requests made by local banks upon their eas- tern correspondents for currency, are promptly met. Owing to the vast sum required to move the country's crops, ,and the precanttons taken by flnan- Jai institutions to insure their entire safety, there is still a shortage of money with which to carry on stock transactions, Will Buy Wheat Again. The most encouraging development, locally, during the week, Is the an- nouncement of the Montana Elevator company that it will resume the buy- ing of wheat next Monday. Manager McClave, who has been looking over the grain situation in this state and in the west and east, will return home by tomorrow night from Duluth with all the information bearing on the sit- uation that la obtainable, and definite announcement as to the Prices that will prevail Monday and other de- tails will be given out as soon as he comes.

One cause for this is the advance in the freight rate to Duluth. made by the Northern Pacific, of 10 cents per hundred.

Considered from any point of view—the number of teach- ers assembled, the high character of the instruction given, the earnestness of Oldie in attendance and the bene- fits derived—this meeting has proved the most notable One of the kind ever held in central Montana. To begin with, the preparatlon.s were all care- fully made, and every session was of the highest practical value to the edu- cators. All told, nearly 70 Instruct- ors, representing every section of the two counties, were present, but the at- tendance was not restricted to them, Patrons of the sabools and those Interested In educational work turned out every day in large numbers and all found the meetings profitable. The instructors were Miss Maude Sum- mers, of Boston, President J. M. Ham- ilton, of the Agricultural college at Boz.eman, and W. E. Harmon, state superintendent of education, and they all performed their duties in a man- ner that won unstinted praise. Dr. Clark, of the State Normal college at Dillon, was unable to be present. On each day, a local physician gave a brief address on some subject of in- terest and this formed the pleasing feature. On the opening day, Dr. T. II. Pleasants spoke upon the care of the eye.

Principal P. M.

LATEST NEWS FROM KENDALL Operations at Barnes -king Mill Re- sumed Yesterday After a Few Days Shut Down. THE DELAYED CYANIDE ARRIVES Bryan Bradley Succeeds E. L. Beck as Assayer at the Kendall -- Personal Mention, e Kendall, Nov. 14.—The Plarnes-King m111 started running agate today after a short shut down of several days, due to the fact that the usual supply of cyanide was unobtainable, the car containing this invaluable chemical having been lost since the 20th of October. The mill hands have been kept busy meanwhile by making many repairs and thoroughly overhaul- ing the machinery so that now the plant is in fine condition for running for a long time. The Kendall mill had no occasion to shut down they having sufficient cyanide to run them until they received part of the new shipment which arrived in Kendall last Sunday. The work of sinking shafts on the ground of several new companies Is steadily proceeding and It is to be hoped that several new mills will be required before spring comes. William A. Shaules, is on a short business visit to his old camping ground, but will shortly return to that verdant part of California, the San Diego district, of which country he speaks in very eulogistic terms. He will probably persuade some of his Kendall friends to visit that g•ert with tile idea of settling there. Paul Smith, mill foreman at the Barnes -King mine, left on Tuesday evening for Chico Hot Springs, to get the superflous cyanide extracted. The Kendall mining company paid on the 23rd, a dividend of 2 cents per share, amounthig to $10,000. This dis- tribution brings the total paid to date to $1,166,000. Pay day passed off very quietly in Kendall this month, all the Men go- ing on shift as usual.

However, 5 suggestion has been made that appears to be entirely practicable and whilh if adopted, will not only save this section from the in- convenience of stepping all night at K rain Billy ee's, but y give a more satisfactory service than was enjoyed under the stub train Plan. This is nothing less than to run the local trains over the Montana Railroad right through to Helena and back. So far as can be seen, there is no reason whatever why the passenger train lear Mg here In the morning should not, instead of stopping at Lombard and transferring passengers to the Nor- thern Pacific train . amen it comes along, continue on its way to the cap- ital city. The next Morning, this train under the suggestion made, would Leave Helena and come on through to Lewistown. All that would be in volved, so far as the Northern Pa- cific is concerned, is the use of its track between Lombard and Helena for one train each way daily. No Northern Pacific motive power at all or rolling stock of any kind would be employed and all that will be required to make the plan a success is a small amount of reciprocity on the part of the Northern Pacific. The suggestion has taken a firm hold on the minds of people here, and is going to be agi- tated and taken up with the state rail- road commission. In the meantime, all that Is asked is that the Northern Pacific point out any serious defect in the plan. The rallrOtt.1 Commission has at - ready taken up this matter, as shown by the following dispatch received by the Argus last evening: Helena, Nov. 14.—The Argus, Lew- istown—TbIs commission has just ar- ranged for sleeper leaving Helena on the 12 o'clock, midnight train which will lay over at Lombard until the de- parture of the morning train for Lew.

What the Bankers Say. That the hopeful view now gener- ally taken is fully warranted by the facts is shown by the following brief Interviews with the cashiers of the local banks, who are in the closest possible touch with the entire situa- tion: Cashier Austin W. Warr, of the Bank of Fergus County—There is no longer any doubt that confidence has been restored in the east, which has been the storm center of this fi- nancial flurry. The immense store of gold received in the past few days has relieved the situation, and the trouble appears to be practically over. The only effect the money stringency in the east has had locally is the sus- pension of wheat buying, which, of course, is temporary. The local banks have been prepared to take care of all possible demands and have carried on business without the slightest re- striction except in the metter of new loans. The most encouraging feature of the situation to me is the fact that. calls on our correspondents. both in the east and In Montana, for currency, have been promptly met. This fact shows that it has passed the dan- gerous stage and that normal condi- tions are practically . restored. I be- lieve the Montana banks., referring to those outside of Lewistown, and more especially the Helena banks, are en- titled to great praise for the ability displayed in meeting the situation. Cashier Wilford J. Johnson, of the First National Bank—The eastern fi- nancial situation, which has occupied notch newspaper space during the past few days is rapidly losing its dan- gerous features. There has been an itrunerme importation of gold coin and the only real trouble in the east has been a lack of currency and gold to meet requirements for cash in the grain belt. The western demand Is now being supplied and the \flurry as it will be called a few weeks hence, will soon be discussed only as to what pm - Beater event catmint it, how rapidly it spread is eserlossai cam- ommities and how rapidly it *abraded.

AMUSEMENTS. t Lewistown Lecture Club Forced to BEGIN IN THE SPRING Owing to the taking off of the daily Abandon its Plans. train service between Helena and this city, the change making it necessary to spend a night and a day on the short trip to Lewistown, the lecture club has decided to abandon its plans, and the arrangements for giving a ser- ies of lectures and entertainments of high class through the winter will not be undertaken. In adopting this course, the club is simply anticipating the inevitable, and the decision was hastened by the receipt of a telegram yesterday announcing that Senator \Bob\ Taylor, who was to have spoken Main street and Fourth avenue by a Monday evening, was compelled to group of local capitalists associated cancel his date because of the serious with the Empire Bank & Trust corn- Illnees of his daughter. pany.
