Montana's System la Said to Have Good Effect on Convicts. Helena Letter. The Montana State Penitentiary, in its care for and management of Its prisoners. is a unique institution and might well be taken as a model by many institutions of like character in older States. Not only ?s every effort made to benefit the unfortunate Inmates and fit them for honest lives after they shall have left the prison walls, but much Is done to render their present condition cheerful. Wardens Conley and Mcrague, who have had charge of the prison for many years, act upon the theory that, with all possible alleviations, penitentiary life is a severe punishment and that a large percentage of the men will quickly show their appreciation of kindness by being far more tractaoie than lr tney were not ac corded any privileges!. The latest innovation is the Introduction of a brass band within the penitentiary. The band, consisting of twenty-four nieces. has been recently organized and is unler the instruction of a bandmaster, who also nets as one of the guards of the prison. The penitentiary might almost be classed as an educational institution. In the prison school, organized four years since, ara taught all the English branches of the ordi nary grammar schools, in addition to pen mansnip, telegraphy and photography. A teiegratnic apparatus has been set up in tne penitentiary for the use of the nun! is Teachers as well as students are taken from among tne ranks or the lnmatea But the prison school is not the onlv r markable feature of this institution; In the work performed by the convicts within the past few years the Montana penitentiary maae a. recora wnicn 19 to the frpiit of Its managers, until within the last five or six years the state prison consisted of a lew lOg- DUlIdingS OI Various Klzes nrA nn small stone structure, all surrounded by a high board fence. The present prison build ing ranxs among the finest in the United States. The building is of brick, r veted with rugged, native granite, 188 feet in length, fifty feet in width and nearly forty-five feet in height, with four towers rising to a neignt 01 sixty-nine feet, the whni nn. talnlng a floor space of over 12,500 square feet. In addition to this is what Is known as the Assembly Hall," a building two eiuries mgn. uv Dy sixty reet. composed enureiy 01 oncK, wun trimmings of gran ite diocks. surrounding both buildings ' is a wall of native rock, evenlv rnt ant ner fectly matched, extending nine feet into the ground, twenty feet In height, finished with a coping three feet wide, with massive entrances and with four towers fortv feet in height- These new buildings and Improvements, which ordinarily would have involved in their construction an expenditure of nearly a quarter of a million, have: oeen duiii py tne inmates of the prisons. an within four years, at a cost to the State of lew than $50,000. There were no quarrels among the men, no Insubordination and no attempted escapes while the work was in progress. Without chains or fetters and with but few guards, the men quarried the rock, cut and dressed the granite block?, molded and burned the bricks, dug the sand, burned the lime, cut th logs and sawed the lumber. In less than a year and a half they com pleted tne massive and beautiful structure. With the exception of the suDerintendent. the foreman of the brickyard and a tinner employed to superintend the covering of the roof. It Is wholly, from beginning to end. the work of laborers, mostly unskilled, and all designated as ,'clminals.,, Even the archi tect who furnished the design for the build. lng was himself a prisoner, whose sentence expired a few weeks prior to the commencement of construction. The two buildings wm accommodate over w prisoners. It is rather unusual to see within nrlson walls hundreds of men, of all ages and na tionalities, patiently mastering the various branches, from reading and spelling up to the higher mathematics: to hear the click of telegraphic instruments, the clatter of typewriters and the hum of recitation classes, interspersed with lessons In music. vocal and instrumental, but this is what may be seen and heard in the State Peni tentiary of one of the youngest States In the Union, thanks to a wise Board of Prison Commissioners and to the Intelligent and untiring errorts or its manager?. A Missionary Conference. Philadelphia Press. Ex-President Harrison Is to be honorary resident of the Ecumenical Missionary Conference which assembles in New York city In April next. The gathering of missionaries and representatives of missionaries and representatives of missionary boards. soclftI-3 and other organizations will he far in advance of any previous assembly of like character. The actual facts of the situation in the connict of Christianity with fal.e religion will be gathered up and presented with a comprehensiveness and clearness never before possible. The methods of missionary work nnd the nature of the obstacles met will be illustrated by a great museum of missionary literature, mars and appliances, as well as by a great display of objects Illustrating the material, intellectual and moral condition of the heathen vor!d. The relation of the missionary enterprise to social progress will receive a measure of attention such as has never been thought of heretofore. Th fact that Christian missions are quickening whole nations anew, giving them education, creating a literature, awnkenln; national aspiration, reforming morals, elevating woman, abolishing such evils as the slave trade, cannibalism and human sacrifices, introducing medical science and teaching the first '.vs?on of charity, will be brought to th world's attention with a new force and distinctness. The result will naturally be to introduce a new era of Intelligent and devoted missionary . labor, prompted and sustained by a noble and enduring enthusiasm.

AGAINST GLASS TRUST

IXJCXCTIOX SUIT AT AXDEnSOX MAY PREVENT COMBINATION. Receiver Asked for Indiana Plants Under an Old Lair Wage Scale Committee In Session. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. ANDERSON, Ind.. Aug. 1. Prosecuting Attorney Edwards filed an Injunction suit here to-day in which an effort is made to prevent the Madison county window glass companies from entering the combine. The companies made defendants are the Ander son Window Glass Company, the Victor Window Glass Company, the Union Window Glass Company, of this city, the El wood Window Glass Company, the Clyde Win dow Glass Company, of Frankton. and the Pendleton Window Glass Company. The United Window Glass Company, of Orestes, and the Adams Window Glass Company, of Frankton, were not made parties to the suit because they are foreign corporations and cannot be reached by the state laws. The petition asks for the dissolution of the cor porations named, the appointment of a re ceiver and the granting of an injunction preventing the corporations from joining the combination or doing an unlawful act. The executive committee of L. A. 300, the Glass Workers Union, has had attorneys searching the Indiana statutes for weeks and have concluded they have found one that will serve their purpose. It is an old one relating to the forfeiture of charters when corporations seek to do things in vio lation of the purposes of their organization. Provision is made that when corporations do other things it becomes the duty of the prosecuting attorney to bring suit on behalf of the State to forfeit the charter. The window glass workers believe that this move will prevent the Hoosler window glass factories from entering the combination, and that if they do not join the whole project will fall. This is the day for the formal organiza tion under charters granted by the States of Pennsylvania and New Jersey of the American Window Glass Company, with a capital of $37,000,000. It is claimed that the company controls 85 per cent, of the glass manufacturing facilities in the coun try, and it is thought its first act will be to increase prices 10 per cent THE WAGE COMMITTEE. Members) In. Session Kow to Fix the Annual Scale. PHILADELPHIA, Aug 1 The wage scale committee of the Window-glass Workers' Association, Local Assembly No. 300 Knights of Labor, opened here to-day with twentysix delegates in attendance. The object of the meeting is to revise the by-laws and fix a scale of wages. The latter will be done by the wage committee, consisting of twelve members, of which Simon Burns, of Pitts burg, is president. During the convention an effort will be made to meet the manu facturers in conference. The Eastern dis trict is represented in the convention by William Marks, Lewis Marks, Jason Garton and Israel Harris, all of Bridgeton.

The Western committee comprises Simon Burns, of Pitts burg: Charles Bryant, of Anderson. Ind.: C. W. Lawrence, of Arnold, Pa.; Ralph iotts. or .Eaton, ind.. and cnaries 8. Brand. of Greenfield, Ind. There are also five mem bers of the legislative committee and three trustees, in addition to President Burns. secretary .raui St. reter, Assistant Secretary F. B. Tannison and Treasurer John Gray. A resolution was adopted Indorsing the efforts of the bottle blowers to better the condition of the workers of New Jersey. and thanking the New Jersey clergy, offi cials, business men and general public for their support or "right, justice and organized labor against oppression,, injustice and capital." The resolution also requests the attorney general to defend organized labor against injunctions. The sessions of the con vention will continue all this week. The Trnst About Completed. PITTSBURG, Pa., Aug. 1. The consum mation of the window glass combination is practically assured. It has been decided to take up the options on five plants in the West that expire to-day, and the money probably will be paid out to-morrow. The bulk of the options on the remain'fnir rtlants do not expire until Sept. 1, although some expire before that date. All doubt as to the success of the project will now probably be brushed out of the minds of the glass manu facturers, and the disturbing rumors of trouble in the combine will be checked. A charter was granted yesterday to the Ameri can Window Glass Company, and under th s tne comDination will be pertected. The com pany is capitalized at X37,Ow,(XX). Has Pulled Oat of the Trust.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. . I NO ALLS, Ind., Aug. 1. The Wagner Glass Company to-day advanced wages of blowers 15 per cent.

Anderson and Lewis S. Leary, the latter a negro. "Ceremonies are to be held at John Brown's grave, and it Is said that the Rev.

L There has been a general advance of from 15 to 29 per cent, in the price of lumber since Jan. L The demand for hickory, oak and other hardwoods is particularly sharp. Quartered oak costs $13 more per thousand feet than it did elx months ago and it Is hard to obtain. Srruco and pine also have advanced, though not so materially as hard woods. Local dealers do not attribute these advances to any scarcity of timber, but they say that tha sawmills are unable to fill their orders which are heavy, on account of the deman for cars, vessels and trucks to handle th increased business throughout the country MINNEAPOLIS, Minn..
