Assignment to j. w. FOrbis, Esq
Considerable surprise was occasioned
yesterday morning when the announce
ment was made that Wharton & Noyes
the grocery merchants had made an assign
ment. The firms store is located at No.
305 North Main street and as far as the
general public knew the business done by
the house was large and flourishing and to
all appearances profitable. Although the
firm continued to transact business all Of
Saturday, the assignment fled for record
yesterday bears date OF October 10. James
w. Forbis is made assignee and is now in
full possession OF all OF the firms assets
including book accounts and all other
articles and matters OF any value. The
assignment states that the firms indebted
ness is more than it can pay and for the
purpose of securing it's creditors al far as
possible transfer is made.
First preferred creditor is John Noyes,
who holds three of the firms promisory
notes for $4,000, $1,000 and $4,000
respectively, bearing interest at the rate OF
IL per cent. per annum. It g especially
specified that he be paid in full. Clark &
Larabie are mentioned second and hold q
note for $2,963.30 against the assignors;
John 81. McQueeney is third, the firm owes
him 1926. The aggregate OF these debts is
$12. 1888, and they are the only ones
specifically mentioned. Second preferred
creditors are John Caplice & Co., J. s.
Forest, P. J. Brophy & Co., J. F. Kelly, M.
G. Cohen & Co., j. H. Lynch, Continental
Oil c. mpany, W. r. Kenyon Hardware
company, Bray & Davidson and North
western Forwarding company. Mention
is also made of other creditors but their
n lmes are not given.
just what the firms assests are is not
known as inventory has not yet been COM
pleted. 1t is thought, however, that they
will foo tup about $14,4OO with liabilii-
ties of about 100000. If full collections
can be made OF all book accounts it is
thought the frm will be able to pay all
of it's indebtedness. Cause of failure is
given as too strong competition and too
small profits on goods handled.

TOO MUCH SUCCESS.

Justice-Elect Mitchell Gives Way to Too
Much Stimulation.
James G. Mitchell, who was elected JUS.
tice OF the peace for Walkerville township,
called at the sheriff's Office yesterday morn
ing with the startling information that Mr..
Lloyd had fallen into a prospect hole in
Walkerville and that q large number OF
men wanted to kill him. Mr.. Mitchell had
only sixteen guns. he said, and could not
stand off the attacking party of twenty
men; so he wanted assistance. That assist.
ance was not given. Later in the day it
was reported from Walkerville that MIR.
Mitchell had armed himself with a shotgun
and given it out cold and fat that any man
who approached the Mitchell cabin would
be filled with holes. At last accounts the
Justices friends had got the upper hand OF
him and were administering soporifics and
things commonly used in cases of alcohol

Chief-of-Police Smith Doffs His Badge
For a Few Minutes.
Chief-of-P Police Smith ran afoul of q
young man named "Cholly" Jones last
night-the same Jones who figured SO con-
spicuously in the matter of getting alleged
proof of fraud from the Tunnel precinct.
Mr.. Jones insisted that he was much more
OF man than the chief thought him to be
and tried to impress upon the chief that
if he, the chief. were not bedecksd with q
star he, Jones. would lard the lean earth
with his corposity. The chief very kindly
doffed his star and, as q matter of provo
cation, slapped Mr.. Jones soundly on the
jowl. The evidence hunter essayed to
whip the chief, but his efforts were unsuc-
cessful. The gentleman with the brass COL
lar was too strong for him, and held his
hands until the bellicose young man had
tired himself out. Then the chief let

In the Divorce Mill.

Peter Martin, whose domestic relations
have been the cause of good deal ol
scandal in Dublin gulch, brought suit in
the district court Saturday for divorce
from his wife, Nina Martin. The com.

McIntyre as the correspondent. Mcintyre

From the Great Falls Tribune, The

Harrison to remove Judge DeWolfe. in

can party can control the legislature. The
next step will be to secure the aid OF Secre-
tary Walker, Governor White and Chief
Justice Blake, who, the omnibus bill says,
shall canvass the returns 'for" or against

Mr.. Harrison is q strong party man, but
we doubt il he will bring infamy on his ad-
ministration by using his Office for the pur.
pose OF sustaining this fraud. The removal
OF Judge DeWolfe under such circumstances,
would be q fagrant act OF injustice that
would provoke the scorn of all honest men.
proclaim that President Harrison
has no respect for the Independence of the
territorial judges and that he is resolved to
pack the bench with minions who would
simply register the DEGREES OF the. miserable
conspirators who stand in the background
at Butte and find ready instruments in
such fellows as Jack and Hall.
Neither can Governor White afford to
take part in this plot openly or tacitly.
He cannot rightfully undertake to canvass
the returns 80 long as part OF the returns
from Silver Bow are withheld and are the
subject OF judicial process. He cannot
truthfully certify the result" OF the cleo
tion to the president when an important
precinct is deprived by an unju.t act Of all
part in the election. Governor White has
hitherto discharged the duties of his high
office creditably and honorably. He is not
versed in law, but he has that hard, com.
mon sense which has made him successful
as a business man. We hope that he will
not daily with this tsmpts tion. His duty
to Montana demands that he shall do his
pal t in crushing at the start the infamous
scheme. He is bound to do so as chief ex-
ecutive and as citizen. If he and other
prominent Republicans remain silent they
will become participators in this crime and
will be responsible ior the evils which it will
entail on this territory. Already it has in

County Clerk Booth addressed commu-

tary Walker at Helena, explaining why the
canvassing board had not sent him the
returns from Silver Bow county, as re-
quired by law. The statutes impose a fine
OF 5000 upon the county clerk who fails to
make such returns and Mr.. Booths letter
was in explanation OF his seeming disre-
gard OF the provisions OF the statute.

From Tuesdays Daily.
Mrs. Maggie Page, the woman who gained
80 much notoriety last spring by being al
rested and tried for the murder OF her hus.
band, John Page, tells q very sensational
story Of having been robbed, Sunday
night. The person whom che accuses OF
ha wing robbed her, has fully as unsavory
a reputation as she hes, and has also been
charged OF murder. The alleged robber is
Billy" Dougherty, arrested little over q
year ago for stabbing man in Galena
street dive.
The woman's story is to the effect that
Sunday night she and her little daughter
were in bed and asleep in the front room of
her house on Wyoming street. which by the
way is also the house in which Page died
from the effects Of an overdose OF NOR.
phine, and that Dougherty gained an en-
trance to the house by the rear door. She
claims that the back door was fastened
from the inside by q small piece
OF rope and that Dougherty managed
to pull the door sufficiently
wide open to enable him to reach in and
cut the ropes. Passing through the back
room, IN Whlch her son was sleeping, Mrs.
Page says Dougherty deliberately entered
her bedroom and without warning grabbed |
3 caba, through which she had slipped her
wrist, and as he did so applied q vie |
,pithet to her and told her to 'tgive up"
This, of course, awoke her and sine at |
tempted to take the bag which contained |
1er pocketbook and $25, away from him,
out was unable to do SO. After taking her |
oocketbook and money the woman says |
)ougherty attempted to leave the house by |
means OF the front door, but it being locked |
le ran out of the house the same way in
which he entered and made good his escape.
Strange to relate while all this was going
IN, according to the woman's story, the
wo children continued to sleep and knew
lothing Of what had occurred until she
old them.
She fled complaint against Dougherty
and warrant for his arrest was
,sued, but as far as heard last night he
ad not yet been apprshended.
