JUSTICE WILL BE DONE
Beginning the Investigation Of Police
Court Affairs in Butte.


BY the standards special Wire.
BUTTE, Jan. 6.-The investigation into
the condition OF affairs at Judge New
kinks court will he i'm n thor
ough amer. Alderman Cowan has
been busily engaged to-day in collecting
evidence on In case. He says that he
has learned that i'm the Barriere case 81
witnesses reported to the court day after
day for seven or eight days, at $3.50 each
per day. and that this WINS often because
the Judge had absented himself for "a
whole day at the court. The alderman has
been looking into the number of cases
which have been delayed in their trial at
the court. 1t is stated that yesterday
eight witnesses reported at the court.
having been subpoenaed for n trial, bat
the Judge was not present and SO there
was no trial. The witnesses, however. re-
ceived $l.5O each. Surprise was Expressed
by some of the alderman at the size of
Dan Teney's bill for feeding the prisoners
at the city Jail. The bill amounted to
$156, which is larger than usual. The ex-
PLANTATION given is that prisoners are at
times kept i'm the jail two or three days
before they are arraiRned, thus increas-
ing the expense.
1t is the intention of the committee to
conduct the inquiry i'm n spirit of fairness
and Justice. There will he no persecution
of the Judge or any one else, hut there will
he n determined effort to get at the bot
tom of affairs and Hind out who is tn blame
for the trouble, and what he remedy
may be. Only strict Justice may he
done. The present crisis i'm affairs
has been expected for months by those
connected with the court, and the
investigation was regarded AS only "a mat
ter OF time. Ii is significant that the mo
ton for an investigation vas made last
night by n democratic alderman and car
ried by N democratic council. The agita
ton, too, was begun by the democratic
press.
The committee of investigation will

WEALTHY AND HAPPY.
Money Comes Freely to the Duke of MARI
borough Through His Wife.

New York dispatch: News comes
from London to the effect that the
Duchess of Marlborough has directed
the trustees of the Hammersley estate to
II some large slices of real estate in
this city, which are among the estates
most valuable belongings. There is some
property on Broadway, near Franklin
street, and block running from Sixty
first to Sixty-second streets and Fifth
and Madison avenues.
The proceeds of these sales will of
course not go to the duchess, as she is
only entitled to an income from the es-
tate during her life. She has the power,
however, to order the sales and have the
avails reinvested, SO that the revenues
may increase. 1t is said that the duchess
has drawn $450,00O from the estate since
her marriage one year ago last July. A
good deal of the estates income, it will
be remembered, accumulated during
the time that the litigation over the will
was in progress. This money has been
used for putting Blenheim castle into
repair, and it has been fixed up with all
modern improvements. Besides this the
town house has been purchased and
magnifcently furnished.
The Duke and Duchess of Marlbor-
ough are said to be very happy in their
union and their friends say they will
make visit to this side during the
coming spring.
