Hiehwayman Captured.

The highwayman who held up and
robbed Conductor Richardson at Hell
ena last week and subsequently shot
and dangerously wounded Policeman
Grogan, was captured Friday in most
unexpected manner. The nature Of the
offsnses committed naturally prompted
the officers Of the temporary capital to
the greatest vigilance, and as conse-
quence every person whose actions
placed them under suspicion was imme-
diately arrested. Among the suspects
was a young fellow arrested at the
Northern Pacific depot, while apparently
awaiting the arrival OF q train, by Off
Gers Gibson and Bach. An examina-
ton of the person Of the prisoner dis
closed the possession OF gold watch
and other property-the watch after
wards proving to be the one stolen from
Conductor Richardson. When placed
in the Jail the prisoner gave the name OF
Charles Miller and requested to be per-
mitted to send note to friend. The
note was written in Swedish and when
translated read: Henry Clark am
in Jail; come to me-" The note was de-
livered at the place designated by an

A CANARD.

The New York Press Exposes that "Im-
portant Bill" Business
The article credited to the New York
Press in a recent issue of this paper, in
which it was alleged that unfavorable
action had been taken in the Now York
legislature against the Royal Baking
Powder, proves to have been a canard,
gotten up and circulated by opposition
baking powder makers for purposes
quite apparent to everyone.
The New York Press, in exposing the
fraud, says, "Nosuch legislation as that
stated in this article has ever been had
in this state-or in any legislature, to
our knowledge" The lie is made from
whole cloth. The Press disclaims any
responsibility for the publication, and
objects to being made party to such
methods adopted by some baking pow

substitute their goods for others now in

would be good to marry in Park county.

Deeney, Hickey and Kelly, the Pen
rose murder suspects, were admitted to
bail Tuesday afternoon by Judge Penn
berton in the sum of $4,000 each. Bail
was speedily furnished and the men
given their liberty. They have been
imprisoned in the county Jail three
months. Their strial in the district
court will probably come up this fall
term.
In making the..rulingss Judge Penber-
ton said there was. but one question for
him to determine, whether the proof is
evidence of guilt or...whether the pre-
sumption is sufficient to raise a doubt
in the mind. 1t always has been the
spirit and policy1to.grant bail except in
cases where it is specially stated other
wise in the constitution. There was
nothing in this case that would cause
him to deviate in the matter from any
other case. This court should not be
controlled in it's duty by the enormity oi
the crime nor the passions and preju-
dices of the people. Its duty was to
weigh the evidence and determine if the
defendants are entitled to bail. In doing
so he finds that there is no pretense that
guilt is evident or positive, and it must
be admitted that it is all llcircumstantial
In conclusion Judge Pemberton said: 81
am Of the opinion that these defendants
are entitledto bail. The object of combining
people is to secure their attendance for
trial. Where there is reasonable doubt
about admitting them to bail, he thought
every doubt should be given in favor Of
the defendants, and they should always
be credited with innocence until this il
wiped with the proof Of their guilt"

officer in citizens clothing, accompanied
by other members of the police force
who waited upon the outside OF the
building. When Clark had been found
and the note handed him a signal was
given to the police in waiting, who hur-
ried in, arrested Clark and took him to
the Jail. An examination revealed the
fact that he possessed 38-calibre revol-
YER, the same as that with which Officer
Grogan was shot, and also shells Tor a
4+calibre gun, similar to that secured
by the policeman from his assailant at
the time he was shot. A pawn ticket
was also found for gold watch, which
it has since been discovered was the one
taken from Fisher when he was held up
in his saloon at Anaconda several weeks
since. In addition to this eviden e of
Clark's identity as the highwayman
wanted he was recognized by Richard
son as the man who held him up, and
also by Officer Grogan as the one who
commi tied the assault upon him.
After the arrest of Charles Miller it
transpired that instead of being young
lad, as was supposed, the prisoner was
full grown woman masquerading in male
attire. When this discovery was dis
closed to Miller she expressed surprise
that the officers had not sooner detected
the disguise and stated that her name
was Bertie Miller, but finally admitted
that her real name was Helen Forsland
and made full confession. According
to her story she had resided with her
parents near Lockwood, Washington.
There she made the acquaintance of
Clark, who worked on an adjoining farm,
and he persuaded her to accompany
him to Montana about year ago. Since
that time they had successfully held up
and robbed number of persons in Mis-
soula, Phillipsburg, Butte, Anaconda
and Helena. She stated that at Butte
she had on several occasions, single
handed and alone, held up parties upon
the streets, working one part of the city
while Clark did the same thing in an
other locality. She asserts further that
she was with Clark when he held up
Conductor Richardson, and was also
near by when Clark shot Officer Grogan
and narrowly escaped being hit by one
Of the bullets from the officers gun
while attempting to shoot the bold foot
pad. This confession not only clearly
establishes the guilt and identity of
Clark, but fully explains the prevalence
Of daring robberies at different points
throughout the state during the past
George Clark and Helen Forslund,
alias Charles Miller, had their prelimi-
nary examination Monday before Police
Judge Sanders at Helena. The charge
preferred was highway robbery. The
evidence on this charge, although not SO
as was hoped, resulted in
heir being held to answer in the dis
,rict court in the sum of 5000. The
not so positive as to the ldentlJy or ClarK
Is was anticipated, the. description given
failing in several minor particulars to
with the appearance of the
when arraigned in court.

A Great Falls dispatch Of the l4th
says: Several days ago two ranchmen,
Carr and Mann, while looking for stock
near Mann postoffice, were astonished to
suddenly come in sight of a man in the
rocks busily engaged in rifiing heap OF
letters. They watched him for some
time and then went to kibby and IN
formed Justice Lee who returned with
them to arrest the robber, but the man
had skipped. Over sixty letters we're
found all of which had been cut open.
The letters were addressed to parties in
Fergus county. 1t will be remembered
that Mrs. Barnum, the postmistress,
and her son we're arrested on charge
Of robbiag the mails at Mann, and that
marked money sent as a decoy by In
spector Sackett was found in possession
of Mrs. Mann. A new postmaster was
Immediately appointed and Mrs. Mann
was held to the grand jury. She claimed
to have received the money from a
stranger and this man answered the de-
scriptlon of the one seen by the ranch
men. The letters found were mailed
subsequent to the arrest of Mrs. Mann
and it is evident that the robberies still
continue. It is thought the robber is
acting in collision with parties handling
the mails.
