SENT TO DEER LODGE.
Two Young Forgers Sentenced in
the District Court BY Judge
Hunt.
Ryan Gets Five Years and Shedd
Three Years at Hard
Labor.
scideman May Regain His Liberty, ny
Furnishing Security to do What
IL Right.

Judge Hunt sentenced two young mon
yesterday to terms in the penitentiary at
Deer Lodge. Both confessed their guilt
and the county was not put to the expense
of going to trial. Lester 6hedd was SEN
fenced for three years. He forged a check
for $75 ON j. p. Woolman Il Go. j. F.
Ryan, lately employed by the law firm of
Mcconnell q Clayberg, pleaded guilty to
two informations charging him with for
gerry. On one he received two year, SEN
tence, and on the other three years. Ryan,
in reply to the customary inquiry why
judgment should not be pronounced against
him, said that he had never been charged
with crime before. He said that there was
a rumor Of an accusation against him in
another state, but that it WAS nothing but
suspicion. $50 help me God" he said to
Judge Hunt. II am guiltless of that crime"
Ryan further said that he had been
gambling here, and had never
wronged any one before. inc that
Judge Mcconnell would certify to
his ability; that he had Strengthened
out the books of the firm, and had left
everything in good shape. BY way of a plea
for light sentence Ryan said he had been
brought up in a family which did not warrant
such disgrace as that nov about to come
upon him. He was sincere in saying that
he would reform and never commit another
wrong.
i. D. Penny and A. G. Botkin made SOM
remarks in behalf of the prisoner. When
they finished Ryan arose and addressed the
court again and said that one day in the
penitentiary would have as wholesome effect
upon him as ten years confinement. Judge
Hunt started to sentence him and Ryan
again asked leave to make a few remarks
The court stopped him and said he had
heard enough. In passing sentence the
court told Ryan that his skill and intelli-
gence had secured for him a position of con
fidence; that while he was a trusted employe
he had used his skill and intelligence
to cheat and defraud his employers. Now
instead of being Il respected citizen in the
community with friends, he found himsell
stained with crime and blackened with in
etfaceably disgrace and that his early train.
ing. which he had spoken of, rather added
to than detracted from the enormity of hi
offense.
nlcLonnell 81 Clayberg received a letter
yesterday from j. McCraoken, a commission
merchant at Portland. Ore, saying that tn,
writer saw by the papers that the firm hat
made the acquaintance of j. f. Ryan. Mr.
McCracken wrote that Ryan was wanted il
Portland but did not say what for.

took advantage of the opportunity last

they are still sacrificing silks OF all kinds

left Deer Lodge a few days ago attached TO
the through Northern Pacific passenger. 1t
was filled with horses from the DAILY stables
and was billed east. 1t was the prettlest
car in the train.
Vice Regent, the chestnut gelding, we'll
known IN this part of the country as n run
ner, was sold a few days ago to j. G. Goss,
of Pocatello. Tho price is not

Regent brought a good price, as his quail
ties are we'll known.
The Montana state fair let the contract
the fair grounds to d. p. Workman for the
sum of $500. 1t will be remembered that

There is a heavy cloud of disappointment
lowering over the people of Anaconda since
it was announced that there would be no
races this fall. Almost every citizen there
is interested in horseflesh. Among the
horses at the track are Mountaineer by

CHICAGO LAW.

! A Chicago court has made a decision
! that will be of interest to travellers.
! Mrs. NIitchell's trunk was checked over
a railroad and was lost. She sued the
company fer $3.50, the value of the trunk
ard its contents. 1t was shown that q
condition printed on the ticket was that
the company should not be held re-
sponsible for the loss OF baggage be-
yond the value of 500. The court held
that this was a contract, as Mrs.
Mitchell had signed the ticket, and she
was given judgment for 800.
Such decision is out OF line of the
precedents established by the Texas
courts, and indeed by the courts of most
of the states, where it is generally held
that the conditions printed on railway
tickets are not binding on the pur-
chaser in all cases. Some tickets re-
quire an agreement by the purchaser
that it shall not be transferred, yet it IS
a pretty well recognized law that if
such tickets are transferred they are
good for the holder to travel on.
The signing of a ticket that contains
certain printed conditions is not a con-
tract between the purchaser OF it and
the railroad company. The purchaser
has no option in the case. He has TO
sign, or he cannot use the ticket.
Therefore one of the essentials to
contract, that of the voluntary assent
of both parties to it, is absent. The law
as laid down by the Chicago Judge would
hardly hold water in Texas.

THE RAILROAD COMMISSION.

The railroad commission of Texas Is
at work. THE GAZETTE'S Austin spe-
Gals yesterday reported the conference
and discussion between the commits
sioners and the freight agents.
The difference between the regulation
of railroads by the legislature and by
the commission is very marked. When
the legislature sought to regulate the
roads Austin was filed with lobbyists,
and jack-potS in large measure deter
mined the regulation. Under the COM
mission, freight agents go to Austin.
The people will note this difference as
an augury for good to the state, since
wise and business-like regulation is
beneficial TO both people and roads.
Very frequently it happens that weak
roads are powerless against strong
roads. The commission will make all
things even. From the report in yes
terday's issue, THE GAZETTE takes this
| extract:
"There was 4 good deal Of talk and dis
cussion between railroad men on the one
| side and hessrs. Gresham, EhrliChs and
| Flood OF Galveston over the alleged dis
| elimination in grain rates 10 Galveston, the
latter contending that injustice was being
done Galveston millers, and the former
| combating that notion"
This discussion over the claim of Gal
weston suggests another good TO be ac-
complished by the commission. Up
here in North Texas it has been re-
| ported that Texas roads gave Calves
| ton and Houston better rates on grain
from st. Louis and Kansas City than
We're given to Dallas and Fort Worth.
The roads, it is said, defended this
| alleged discrimination on the ground
that they were compelled TO compete
| with the water rates to the gulf points
although it is not OF record that
grain of wheat was ever shipped to Gal
weston and Houston by sea. The COM
mission will elucidate these charges of
discrimination by Texas roads in grain
shipments. AS it is, the people Of
North Texas believe they are made TO
suffer, and we presume, the people of
the coast believe likewise; and between
the two an ugly feeling is aroused
against all railroads. If the charge of
discrimination is true, the commission
viii develop the fact and remedy the
evil, and this Will satisfy the people.
If the charge is untrue, the fact will be
demonstrated and the people VIII be
satisfied.
The commission is great institution
for Texas, but the commissioners should
watch rival cities as well as rival rail-
roaSs.
Why not mileage basis, modified by
justice to roads and people?
Or, why not Texas rate based upon
the present Texas pro rata Of the inter
state rate?

ONLY ONE RECOVERED.
ONE BODY OF THE FISHING
PARTY FIVE THAT WAS
Drowned in the Squxll at Galveston Sun
day Night-A Thorough Search Be
ing Made for the Others.
Special to the Gazette.

Speclai 10 the Gazette.
GALVESTON, TEX, July THE party
Frankovich, Frank Miltovish, Pete Stran-
gle and Jack Speech and George" who
were drowned of South Point
! during the gale Sunday night,
returned this evening with the body of Pete
Strangle, which had been washed up and
lodged on reef, and upon which
an inquest will be held tomorrow.
The searching party made u thorough
examination Of the water in and around
Smith point, and spent the greater part of
the day in diving in the vicinity of where
the fishing Sloop capsized, but to no pur-
pose. They returned tonight to renew the
search early in the morning by
direction of Sheriff Tiernan, who
is making every effort TO recover the bodies.
Vincent SagoVich, sole survivor of the crew
of six that manned the sloop, says that
when the storm came up they were lying at
anchor in a cove inside of the point, with
sails reefed, anchors out and everything
made taut to weather the gale. They passed
safely through the storm Of Saturday
night and Sunday, but the terrific squail
which came Sunday night about O'Clock
fairly lifted the little vessel out of the
water, and drove her with tremendous fury
out into East bay, where, after
struggling with the winds and
waves, she capsized about mile
and half from the point and her mast was
driven into the mud and all on board were
thrown into the angry waters. He was the
only one of the party that could swim, and
after a desperate struggle he reached
the shore in an exhausted and
almost Senseless condition. After
recovering he kept sharp lookout for his
unfortunate companions until late next
day, when he hailed passing vessel and
was brought to the city late yesterday
evening, when he reported the facts of the
catastrophe TO Justice Finey, which
resulted in the searching party be-
ing sent out last night. Pete
Strange whose body was recovered, served
nine years in the American navy. The
other unfortunates are well-known Italians
who have been connected with the fish
trade of this city for number of years.
This terrible disaster, the result OF the
recent storm, is the only one so far
reported in the vicinity of Galveston which
has been attended with loss of life.
The non-arrivh of the fruit steamer
Franklin from Bluefelds, Nicaragua, over
due since Friday last, is causing grave APP
preheusions for her safety, and fears are
felt that she. too has fallen a 9ictim to the
cyclone that swept the gulf south Of this
point.
