HE Is A MEAN FELLOW
An Unnatural Father Attempts 10 Ruin
His Daughter.
YOUNG GIRLS AWFUL STORY
She Was Subj scted to All Kinds of
Indignities and Finally Had to
Flee From Her Fathers
Cabin In the Mountains.

BUTTE, March IA 16-year-old girl and
her stepmother told a sad story of the
wicked ways of a husband and father a
the police headquarters this evening. For
some time past the girl has been keeping
house for her father, who is a wood con-
tractor, in a cabin near a little station on
the Northern Pacific east of Homestake,
and, according TO her story, she has been
subjected to the greatest indgnities at
the hands of her unnatural father. The
girl stated to the officers that her father
has not only been in the habit of shame
fully abusing and beating her on the most
trivial provocation, but that he has con-
tinually talked to her in a most immoral
and suggestive manner, and she said "he
has done awful things to me-" He Sc
cured the girls complete and abject sub
mission by threatening to kill her if she
breathed a word about what he said or
did to her and, fearing that he would put
his threat into execution, she was COM
PEELED to submit to his conduct.
If the girls story is true there was no
limit to her fathers cussedness, but he
was fortunately unable to accomplish his
daughters ruin, which seems to have
been the desired end on his part, after he
had subjected her TO every other conciev-
able indignity.
On two or three occasions recently, the
girl says, her father attempted to accom-
plish her ruin, but she successfully re-
sisted him. Alter each attempt he threat
ened TO kill her if she mentioned it to any
enc. and the girls lips were sealed
through fear. One of the men in her
fathers employ discovered that things
were not as they should be, however. and
this morning he gave the girl money
enough to pay her fare to Butte. She
boarded the train and came into the city
and came to the home of her stepmother,
who lives in South Butte near the school
house.
Fearing that her heartless father might
come into Butte after her. the girl called
at the marsha's office this evening, ac-
companied by her stepmother, to ascer-
tain what course they had better take to
prevent trouble. The girl was advised to
go to the Women's and ChilIren's home,
but her stepmother insisted that she
could come and live with her. This was
agreed TO and the marshal told them to
notify the police at once if the father
came to town and started to try to per-
suade the girl to go back with him or
undertook to create any trouble.

Joe weinrich Before the United state,
Court On u Serious Charge.

Joe Weinrich Before The United states
Court On Serious Charge.
BUTTE, March 14.-In the United States
court this morning a demurrer to the in
dictment against Joseph Il. Weinrich
charging him with sending an obscene
publication through the mails, was argued
Weinrich. who is the proprietor of the
Sunday Mercury. was indicted at the last
term of the United States court, at which
time he published a sensational paper
called the People. The language of the
indictment relates that the offense COM
planned of consisted in depositing in the
postoffice n copy of the People addressed
to the Missoulidn at Missoula, and that
the paper contained matter so lewd and
indecent as to be unfit to be set out in full
in the Indictment.
In the argument of the demurrer Mr..
Weinrich was represented by Attorney
Francis Brooks, who raised the point that
the indictment, while 1t alleged that the
paper sent through the postofiice was in
decent, it failed to allege that the defend
ant had any knowledge of such indecent
character or that he had any intention OF
wrong doing. Mr.. Brooks read several
decisions directly in point in which it was
held that the failure to allege such knowl-
edge was fatal to the Indictment.
District Attorney Leslie, however, read
n later decision by Justice Shiras in which
IL was held that it was sufficient to allege
in an indictment that the defendant
knowingly deposited the unavailable mat
ter in the postofiice for transmission
through the mails. Mr.. Leslie said it was
no more necessary 10 allege a knowledge
of the indecent character of the mail mat
ter than II Is to allege iii an lndlctmen
for unlawful cutting of timber on the pub
lie domain that the offender knew that
the land was public land.
Mr.. Brooks admitted the force of the
later decision, but contended that the de-
cisions read by him were more direct in
point and he thought they were good law
for a person might deposit in the post
office an unavailable article and be en-
tirely ignorant of it's character and il
would be manifestly unjust to hold him
punishable for the act. Tho indictment
against Weinrich did not even allege that
he was the publisher of the Objectionable
paper.
Judge Knowles took the matter under
Amusement.

turn on the venire for a grand jury. and

The Verdict of the Coroner's Jury
lYasterdaY

Yesterday.
BUTTE, March 14.-Coroner Richards
conducted an inquest this forenoon on
the body of Michael Fleming, the young
man who was killed in a runaway acct
dent in Dublin gulch yesterday afternoon.
DIR. j. :. Hammond, who was called to
attend Fleming after the accident, gave
it as his opinion that he had died from
conclusion of the brain unless there were
some internal injuries which he did not
discover in superficial examination.
The skull was not fractured nor the neck
broken, and the legs and arms were all
right.
Miss Lizzie Gemmell testified that
about 3 O'Clock yesterday afternoon she
met Fleming in his sulky at the corner of
Wyoming and Copper streets. She told
him that he was under the influence of
liquor and that he better be careful or he
would fall ont and hurt himself. lie said
that he was all right and drove on.
Fleming was badly under the influence of
liquor at the time. The horse seemed
very gentle but Miss Gemmell testified
that after Fleming left her he began
whipping the animal and shouting at
him.
Richard Dryer testified to having
helped take Fleming out of the badly
broken suky. His feet were doubled up
under him in the sulky and his head was
hanging over in the broken wheel from
which or 10 spokes had been torn out.
The spokes were covered with blood.
Dryer assisted in carrying the young
man into Callahan's cabin where he died
10 or Is minutes late.
Other testimony was of n similar ma
ture to the above and n verdict was rem
eered in accordance with the facts.

sided in Butte for seven years. He wi 4

Two Matches

BUTTE, March 1.-Two watches which
were picked up at tho scene of the explo-
sion on the night of Jan. 10, and which
have been at the police headquarters ever
since awaiting an owner, were taken away
to-day by Officer McAulifre, who found
them. The fact that no one called for
ihe watches Is pretty conclusive evidence
that their owners were among the killed.
One of the watches stopped AT l0:07 y.

shaw's Jursensen Watch.

Tho suit of Dan Shaw. the cafe man,
against Joseph Rosenthal for the
possession of 1925 watch which was
stolen from Mr.. Shaw in Leadville in the
fall of 1888 was on trial to-day before
Judge Mediation. sitting without n jury.
Mr.. Shaw was represented by j. l.. Wines
and Mr.. Rosenthal 10y John L. Forbis.
The facts IN the case were almost entirely
agreed to by both parties and the fight
was made on law points, especially the
statute of limitations, which was pleaded
by the defense. Tho testimony was in
teresting. 1t was 10 the effect that in
1883 while Mr.. Shaw was in business in
Leadvllle he was out with n party of
friends one evening and they had n nice
time. During the evening mis- costly
watch was distracted from his vest
pocket and he did not see it again until
about two months ago when be saw IT in
the possession of George Tong, the
mining man, who happened TO he in
Shaw's place. Tong had recently pur-
chased il from Rosenthal and the latter
took it back when he heard that there
was n question as to the title TO it, Mr..
Shaw said that he sent tracers out for his
watch and kept up the hunt for II years.
Every police department in the West was
furnished with "A description of it. Among
those who were with Mr.. Shaw on the
night he lost his watch was n policema n
named Cuddie, who was a personal friend
of his. About "a month later Cuddie left
Leadville and went to the Occur d'Alene
country, and Mr.. Shaw did not meet HIM
again until about three years ago, when
he was in Seattle. In the meantime he
had suspected Cuddie and asked him if
he knew anything about the watch, but
CuddIe denied having had auy knowledge
of it. When Mr.. Shaw discovered his
watch in Butte he traced its ownership
back to Cuddie. 1t appeared that Mr..
Nuss of this city met Cuddie in the Occur
dAlenes and the latter became indebted
TO him. Nuss wanted his money, and
Cudde told him that if no would Ind a
buyer for the watch he would nay him.
Mr.. Nuss introduced Cuddie TO Rosenthal
aud tho latter bought the watch for Sl40.
Rosenthal bought the watch i'm 1854.
In raising the statute OF limitations
Mr.. Forbls contended that Shaw had lost
ownership of the watch. Mr. Wines ar
gued that the statute did not begin TO run
until the owner had discovered its where
abouts and had demanded its return, and
that the owner of piece OF stolen prop
erty could not profit by the statute of linn
itatIon when the whereabouts of the prop
erty was kept a secret from the rightful
owner. Numerous authorities on both
sides of the question were quoted.
Mr.. Wines made a strong case, and
raised one of the most interesting points
of law heard in tho district court in a long
while. NJ. l.. Wines was associated with
him in the case. Judge Mediation took
the case under Amusement.
