the omce today an
that tboy recognised Blanche Lamont
Iter toeing her pioture printed in the
Hun Francisco papers. They elated
that when she left here, five years ago,
lie was about 17 years of age and as
the papers give iinr age, when mur
dered as 22, it Is very likely to be the

Bound Over. In the justice court
Tuesday Tony Barber was arraigned
tor a preliminary hearing, charged
with stealing a hog from Edward Lam
borson. The oaee occupied a good
part of the day, during which time a
number of witnossos were Introduced
who swore that the reputation of the
prosecuting witness for truthfulness
was bad. However, the defendant was
hold to await the action of the grand
jury, with bonda fixed at 9300, which
was promptly furnished, with Joseph
Copoland and James Dart as sureties.
Another Rati War. Another
rate war has been inaugurated on the
lower Columbia river. A few days
ago the ownere of the steamer 8arah
Dixon reduced the fare one way to f 1
and round trip ticket to 1 1.60. This
cut was promptly met by the Oregon
Itailway 4 Navigation Company, who
claim they will meet any cut made.
Of course this will force the Bailey
Oatiert and Lurllne to oome down to
the same rate and another cut may
be looked for at any time. - The re
duced rate only applies to through
travel. .
Financially Strong. A gentle
man well known in commercial cir
cles in Missoula was questioned by a
Telegram reporter about Mr. Ham

"Why, be Is engaged In large under
takings there, and is known through
out the state," said the gentleman.
"His enterprises cover a very wide
range, Irora building railways to bank
ing and commercial affairs. He built
the Missoula 4 Boot River Valley
road, 60 miles long. He and bis part
ners operated this road for a while
and then sold It to the Northern Pa
cific, of which it Is a feeder. The
Drummond 4 Phillipsburg, another
branch of the Northern Pacific, was
built by him and bis associates, and
sold to the Northern Pacific. Mr.
Hammond is president of the First
National Bank of Missoula, with a
capital stock of 1500,000, of the Mis
soula Mercantile Company, with a
capital of 11,200,000, and is the eon
trolling spirit in the Big Blackfoot
Mill Company, which is capitalised at
700,000.'J . x

there were a number of young boys
under 21 years of age on board drink'

" A FLIMSY PRETEXT.
Senator Morgan's Vlewe on the Jflo
araguan Question.
Washimotos, April 30. Senator Morgan,
of Alabama, in an interview on the Nicer
aguan situation, today, characterised the
Insult to the sonsular agent. Hatch, " the
flimsiest kind of a pretext" on the part of
Great Britain, and ssid that if a private in
dividual would sne for damages on such a
case, he wonld bs laughed out of court.
He had no criticism to pass on the admin
istration, because, bs said, be presumed
the administration bad taken proper steps
to prevent Great Britain from obtaining a
foothold on Nicaraguan territory.
"But If It bas not," be added, "lbs next
congress will, sven If Great Britain must
be driven off tne continent at tbe point of
the bayonet."
He added he did not think the canal pro
ject would bs sndangered by tbe present
complications. He said:
This case has gons fsr beyond tbe Mon
roe doctrine, far beyond the Clsytoo-Bul-wer
treaty. It has a character that is dis
tinctly its own, and tbat rests upon higher
grounds than any doctrine or any treaty
ever mads or enunciated. The United
States snd tbe governments ot Nicaragua
and Costs Rica have entered Into a solemn
compact with each other looking to the
construction of this .great maritime high
way; ths company, composed mostly of
citizens of tbe United States, is organized
and starts Its work.
"Now comes Great Britain, with tbe
domineering spirit of aggression tbat bas
marked ber course throughout the history
of modern times, and, upon tbs slimmest
of pretexts, the most absurd ot sxcuses,
makes a demand upon tbe government of
Nicaragua that sbs does not expect to be
complied with, and all in tbe bops that
through the default of the weaker govern
ment sbs will be enabled to establish a
sovereignty over ths territory and thus con
trol the future development of the canal
snd of tbs traffic that may pass through It.
I believe congress, at its next session, will,
if nothing shall be dons meanwhile by
authorised powers now in authority, ef
fectually and finally stop tbe aggressions
ot Great Britain and absolutely prevent ber
gaining a foothold in this most important
tpoint on tbe American continent. I think
here Is enough spirit in the American
people to pnt a stop to this proceeding.
Great Britain is not going to stop it of ber
owo volition. Homebody must step in and
bs disagreeable, and this seems to bs a very
good opportunity for the United States to
assume that role."
In Connecticut's State Senate.
Haotfosd, Conn., April 30. In tha sen
ate today Senator Birde, of Bristol, pre
sented a resolution regarding the occupa
tion of Nicaragua by British troops, to tbe
following effect, which were unanimously
adopted under suspension of tbe rules:
"That we view with Indignation and
alarm tbe occupation ot Nicaragua by
British troops; that we coil upon all Amer
icans, without regard to party, to join us
in denouncing tbe unpstriotic and un
American inaction of the democratic ad'
ministration; that we maintain tbat no
foreign power should bejallowed to gain
any foothold on American shores, and tbat
such attempts should bs resisted by tbe
American army and navy, and by tbe
AmaHrss nenrjle.
"Tbat we demand of tbs administration
t w.hlntnn that it insist noon tbe im
mediate bauling-down of tbe British flag
and the withdrawal of British troops from
the republic of Nicaragua, and that said de
mand be entorcea, li necessary, oj aiucii-
