July 21.—A tele gram was received to-day from Lethbridge stating that Cora Brotherton, the girl who was ac cidentally shot here recently by John Bobbins, a- well known rancher, died yesterday. When she left'for Lethbridge, the day after the shooting, the doctors said the wound was not dangerous, as the bullet only penetrated the* outer covering of the skull. D en ver . July 20.— The closing down of the silver mines, smelters, reduction works, coal mines rail ways and ^factories, has put the laboring classes in a deplorable condition. It is estimated that there are 10,000 idle men in Den ver and 20,000 in outside towns, half of whom are working their way here' to become a public charge. To avoid this commercial bodies will ask the railroads to make a $5 rate to the Missouri river for this class, in the expect.a- -tionihaf they- will-be able To ~ get; work.on farms. It is estimated that Colorado and other western merchants have., countermanded orders for goods in New York for over $12,000,000. B u iu in g silver. W ashington ,. July 22.—Secre tary Carlisle this morning author ized the Associated press to state that he fully approves of the pol icy pursued in his absence by Act ing Mint Director Preston in pur chasing silver, and that the same policy will govern the silver pur chases in the immediate future. This^statemeut will set at rest ru mors that the secretary would, on his return, reverse the policy of the treasury in purchasing, silver. Preston was entrusted by Secre tary Carlisle with entire discretion in purchasing silver when he left on his vacation. This morning, with the approval ot Seretary Carlisle, he refused to purchase 100.000 ounces of silver at 70 cents, the London price be ing about 69. Jm m igratiou fa llin g - Off.

N ew Y ork , July 22—The World will print the following:. ‘‘The World is enable to announce au thoritatively the immediate policy of President Cleveland .in regard to the special session. Briefly, it will be as follows: First—Silver reform, by the absolute and un qualified repeal of I he Sherman law; second—Tariff reform, to be prosecuted in accordance with the pledges of the party as soon as (but not before) the finances of (he country are again upon a stable basis. * ‘’Cleveland is annoyed and exas perated at the unexpected inter ference with his tariff reform plans, but he is not discouraged. From the information at his com mand Cleveland has no doubt his policy will be adapted by the house, after reasonable discussion. It. is in the senate that trouble will come. ‘•What will follow repeal is a matter that will not be injected Into the present-fight- if, the. ad; ministration has its way. That fuither financial legislation will be needed the president considers probable, but what its nature .shall be is a ma ter for future de termination.” To Cheapen W o o l. W ashington , July 19.— A n im portam. change has been made by the treasury department in the classification of wool that will lower the duty on some grades of the artic;e nearly 1<:0 per cent. The change follows conclusive evidence offered by wool im p o r ters that certain grades of high class wool were practically ana logous to grades classified lower in the wool schedule of the Me Kinley bill. Hereafter the ma terial known as 149 and 150 Flam* antine.skin wool and 179 Kassap- batchia wool, second quality of the first or highest class, will be known, as 396 and 397, Servian skin wool, and 389 Kassapbatchia skin wool, second quality of third class. her.

Beruis, of Boston, 4 president of the Benns Omaha Bag company, has addressed the T following setter to the editor of • the Boston Traveller: “ Changes are the inevitable- re- ■ ’ sultoftim e. Progress is a result of cha iges. Sailing ships are su- perceded by steamships; horse power by steam and electricity; mails by telephone and telegraph. < Products for products do not now constitute the basis for the world’s commerce, but p.roduts for money. “ Each nation has its own stand-- ard Jor what it calls mone\r, gold being the one metal most-in.fawnf*, ; but gold production does not keep - pace with civilization and popula- . ‘ tion, both of wh'c'.t demand more ;., money. “ Now let the nations of the world in money matters wake' up . i and take a progressive step, as they h ive done in everything else t) promote civilization, namely, let the baclicdor silver be wedded* > to the maid gold, and form a n e w union coin composed of twenty parts’ silver and one part gold. Let the two be made one. Then have free coinage the world over. ’ All moneys are transported for an advalorem charge. Therefore the weight lias nothing to do with the rate for transportation. “ International bi-metalism is the only solution for the present money conditions m the world, - and the quicker this wedding be- ' tween,silver and gold is consum- mated, the better it will be for all concerned. Once consum mated the rejoicings over the mar- * riage of the Duke of York and * * Princess May of Teck will be 'ex- ceeded'by 10.000 times.” r GfiRRETT & WSRNER, - •®NVEYANCEHs, ^ l e a l e s t a t e , INSURANCE * \ , OHQTEAU, MONT.
