Milford and Stone Make . Desperate
Effort to Break jail.
Special Dispatch to the standsrd.
HELENA, Jan. 1o.--From Ave years TO q
life sentence in tho penitentiary 10 the
fate OF James Milford and James Stone.
The jury retired at noon, and Is minutes
after court reconvened at o'clock they
were ready with their verdict. II was
"guilty Of robbery" as charged. The con-
victed men left the court room in COM
rany with the deputy sheriff, Milford,
''the long man." muttering imprecatious
on the jury. They will be sentenced to-
morrow morning. Tho penalty for their
ofiense 10 from tive years to life imprison-
ment. Both are young men, neither ap-
pareutly more than 2l or % years Of age.
What was undoubtedly desperate at
tempt to escape was made when Milford
and Stone were taken back to the county
jail. Deputy Sheriff Gabisch had the men
handcuiYed together until the outside door
of the Jail was locked. Then he unlocked
the handouts and ordered the men to en-
ter tho corridor, the door of which was
open. Standing near the door was n
,rusty named Murphy. Milford made a
lump anu hlCheu MURPHY ou' oi tue way
and then rrappled with Jailer Caskelly.
Gabisch came to the rescue and struck
Milford and then grabbed Stone. the
smaller man. and threw him through the
door into the Jail corridor. Milford then
turned his attention to Gabisch, but the
latter is Il large, heavy-set man and
grabbed the desperate fellow and soon
had him under subjection. Milford was
then put in one of the dungeons of the
Jail. Il is thought his idea in attacking
the jailer was TO get possession of the lat
ter's pistol and then make a break for
therty.

AN UNFAITHFUL GUARD.
Mir. E. Gang Loses Confidence
 in Bulldogs.
One of Savage Mien That Became Accessory to the Robbery
 of Hen .Roost.

E. Gang has lost faith in everything
 but the pertinacity of thieves. When
 8 bulldog proves unfaithful to his trust
 "Who,"" inquiries MT. Gang, "can claim
 our confdence?"
 MT. Gang was {the word sswas' IS
 here used advisedly) the owner of lot
 of chickens of superior strain. About week ago he noted the nightly disap- pearance of one. sometimes two.
 He reasoned that some thief who had read the story of the goose that laid the golden egg was concerned in the dis appearance of the chickens. He evi dently thought that MT. Gang would not notice the effect of his incursions. that he would replace the missing poultry as gradually as the birds dis appeared. and so the heen-roost if man. ipulated with caution would prove an Indefinite source of ill-gotten gains. In the meantime MT. Gang was looking around for bull dog. He found one last Saturday of unknown antecedents but savage aspect. He bought him and had him tied in the hen house so that he could command the area of the building and run about two feet ont of the door. N
 "Pll get him tonight Mir. Gang glee- fully remarked to his friends on Satur day afternoon. Later in the evening the atrocity of his preparation for the thlef,s reception presen,ed itself to him, lie pictured man driven to chicken stealing by poverty and the hunger of his wife and little ones. He also drew picture in his mind of the thief's mid night surprise, the savage rush of the dog, the throttling of the prowler. his torn and stiffened body the next morning and the grim sentinel of the chicken roost standing over him. his mouth stained with the life blood of his victim. MT. Gang was tempted that night to avert the calamity by poison Ing the dog. He restrained h1s better nature, however, and went to bed. He turned, tossed, awaiting momentar1ly the sounds of slaughter in the hen roost. He prayed that the thief might take night of, and when day began to break he fell asleep.
 At length he awoke, dressed and nervously hurried to the hen roost. There was no mangled body stranger still there was no mangling bull dog. It is unnecessary to add that there were no chickens. MT. Gang l theory is that the thief came as usual. l the presence of the dog told him that his crime was suspected and there was l no excuse for further delay. The sooner the business was done the better. It ! was the work of moment to corrupt the dog and make an accessory of him. It was the work of another moment to gather in the chickens.

GOVERNMENT IN THE DARK.
A Lengthy Conference Between the
Court and the Defense.


While all this was going on the attor-
neys for the government had been kept
in ignorance OF the sensat ional develop
ments and their surprise was great
Wednesday morning when, instead of pro-
ceeding with the case, they were invited
into the private office of Judge Baker
and the scheme laid before them to-
gether with the proof. The secrecy had
been maintained TO prevent the posi-
bility of any intimation of what was
coming reaching the ears of the guilty
parties. All the proof secured against
the juror and Stannard was brought
forth together with a stenographic re-
port Of the meetings with Coffin and
Armstrong, as well as Coffin and Stan
nard. Prosecuting Attorney Burke said
he was convinced that there was suf-
fcient evidence to justify and demand
the discharge Of the jury and the con-
ference ended.
During the two hours that the con-
ference was going on in the room Of
Judge Bakers down stairs there was
an air Of mystery pervading the court
room that every one tried TO unravel
but without success. All appreciated the
fact that there was something very
serious connected with the case in the
wind, but there was not the slightest
hint given out as to its nature. The
jurors wandered around the room in an
aimless and listless manner, discussed
the crops anu waited the mystery To
be unfOlded. The representatives of the
press sat around sharpening their pencils
for the denouement and incidentally ex-
changing a few anecdotes with the wit
nesses. The Hon. Ben Butterworth came
into the room while the atmosphere was
still heavy with secrecy and eniivened
the moments with few choice tales
and "reminiscences OF the Breckenridge
case.
1t leaked out at length that the end
of the conference was near and all had
but time TO get to their places when
Judge Baker entered the room looking
very severe and was shortly followed
by the attorneys. The jury was sum-
moned, and for a moment there was
intense stiffness. The Sentinel reporter
had been advised of the character of the
mystery an hour before and was waiting
for the appearance of the guilty juror
During the conference he had been pac-
ing restlessely back and forth in the ante
room and refused to say anything even
when addressed by the other jurors. Sew
eral approached him and inquired If he
were sick, but received no answer. As
he took his seat in the court room his
face was of a sickly hue and he nerv-
ously moved back and forth in his chair.
He felt what was coming. He had not
long to walt in suspense.
AS soon as quiet had been obtained Mr.
Burke arose and said that as the court
was aware information had reached the
ears Of the court and attorneys as to the
misconduct OF one of the jurors which
would interfere with the further prog
ress OF the suit, he thought II advisable
that the jury be removed until the mat
ter had been arranged and the proper
course decided upon. The court directed
the bailiff to take the jury to an ante
room and TO see that none Of them left

The trial Of the Coffin brothers and \.
S. Reed for aiding in the wrecking Of the
indianapolis national bank has been pro-
life OF sensations, but the greatest was
reserved until the last. when it was dis
closed that there was on the jury an IN
principled scoundrel who scrupled not to
violate his oath and corrupt the stream
OF justice by attempting to enter into a
compact with the defendants to hang the
jury for the sum of 5000, half Of this
amount TO go 10 the emissary he sent
to complete the arrangements.
The flagrancy of the crime, the insult
cast in the teeth of the court and the
fact that the evidence against the Offend
ing juror and his agent is conclusive
beyond the shadow of a doubt created a
profound sensation in the court room
"Wednesday morning when the facts were
disclosed and ,ook the counsel for the
plaintiff greatly by surprise. although the
information had been in the possession Of
the court, the defendants and their at
torneys since Monday. When the first
advances toward corruption had been
made by the juror on Monday the court
was fully advised of the fact and it was
at his suggestion and under his advice
that the subsequent negotiations were
made in order 10 make the chain Of evil
dence complete.
As the result. the proceedings in the
trial We're stopped Wednesday shortly be-
fore the noon hour, the jury was dis
charged. and a new trial begun. which

vention as a delegate from Lawrence

and Frank o. Stannard, the agent, are
under bonds IN the sum Of $1,000 TO ap-
pear before the bar Of justice next Mon
day morning and answer to the charge
Of conspiracy against the government of
the United States. Judge Baker is in
full possession of the damning evidence
against them and he is justly incensed
at the slur cast upon his court. The
crime being without any mitigating cir
cumstances whatever, ii is highly prob
able that they will be punished to the
full extent of the lew. They stand charged
under sec 5.440 of the United States
statues, which provides that IF two or
more persons conspire either to commit
any offense against the United States
or defraud the United States in any
manner or for any purpose, and one or
more of such persons do any act to effect
the object of the conspiracy. all the
parties 10 such conspiracy shall be liable
TO a penalty of not less than 81. 900 and
not more than So 900 and to imprison-
ment not more than two years" 1t is
the most outrageou attempt to corrupt
justice in the history of the courts in this
city.

Murder of a Girl at Cincinnati by
Father O'Grady.

CINCINNATI, April 25.-Mary Gilmartin,
a clerk employed by the Pulvermacher Belt
company, in Sycamore-st. was shot and
killed today while on her way to her work
The murderer gave his name as George
Reed, but letters found on him prove him
to be Father Domnick OGrady, a catholic
priest who came from Ireland three months
ago. Miss Gilmartin is from Sligo county
Ireland, and one Of her brothers is Father
NJ S. Gilmartin of Chicago. She met
O'Grady in Ireland where his attentions
caused gossip. Last September she came to
America, and has been in this city since
to go TO her work, but in some mysterious
manner got off again, and was shot almost
before her door. O'Grady took arsenic, but
it did not kill him. He confessed the MUIR
der. Among his letters was written
by Miss Gilmartin to the archbishop in
Ireland, eXculpating OGrady from any
wrong doing with her.
The girl is nineteen years old; both were
residents of County sligo, ireland. The
girl was sent to college at Weymouth
