Governor Richards Refuses TO Give Fans
ton His Liberty-Choteau Petition.
Special Correspondence of the Standard.
Helena, Dec. 20.-Governor Richards
has refused to grant the petition for
executive clemency urged by the peo-
pie of Ballard, Wash, on behalf of
Ferdinand Fanston, convicted Nov. g..
at Great Falls, OF cattle-stealing and
sentenced to the penitentiary. Fan
ston's wife and six small children live
in Ballard and are in destitute circum-
stances. The governor says he deeply
sympathizes with the wife and dis
tressed family. but cannot grant the
pardon.
One hundred prominent citizens of
Teton county have petitioned the gov
ernor for the pardon OF George Morris.
who was convicted at Choteau for
grand larceny. The petitioners say
that Morris testimony is needed to
convict the persons guilty OF incendiar-
ism committed in Teton county. The
governor, in reply to County Commits
sioner Taylor. who urges the executive
clemency, says that. under Section 1912
of the penal codes Morris may be taken
from the penitentiary in charge of an
officer and may testify without being
pardoned.

OF the clubs would make any great

lent sport for the players and the
lovers of the great national game

good quality of ball.
We believe the subject of a six-club
league is worth agitating and would
like TO hear from the newspapers of
Miles City, Sheridan, Red Lodge and
Livingston on the matter. Nearly

SENSATION In COURT
The Surveyor General Fined for Con-
tempt by Judge Knowles.
HE MUST BRING IN THE PLAT
Ex-Governor Tooie and w. E. Gull
len Plead for Mr.. NeilI and He
May Eat Turkey at Home
Blue for a Time.

Special Correspondence of the Standard.
Helena, Dec. 2o.-The United States
court room was the scene of an excit-
ing incident this afternoon in which
Judge Hiram Knowles and Surveyor
General John s. M. Neill took leading
parts. The surveyor general refused to
produce a certain plat needed in the
trial OF a case, and Judge Knowles
fined him 500 and sentenced him to 10
days in jail for contempt. Later the
court relented on condition that Mr..
Neill would produce the plat by to-mor-
row morning. 1t was a narrow escape
for the surveyor general though. for,
f9f an hour and a half IL looked very
much as though he would eat his
Christmas dinner behind the bars.
The sensation occurred during the
trial of the United States against Cas-
sert and Redding. the defendants be-
ing sued for 5000 for timber alleged
to have been unlawfully cut from the
public domain near Cooke City. Early
this afternoon Z. G. Day of Livingston,
counsel for defendants. went to the
surveyor generals office to get a plat
of the land from which the timber had
been cut. o. c. Dallas. chief clerk.
said he could not give the original plat
but would make Mr.. Day a certified
copy for IS. The copy would have re-
Quired several hours work, and the
plat was needed at once. and then Mr.
subpoenaed. This was done. When
Mr.. Dallas came into court he did not
have the plat. saying he had not been
allowed to bring IL. A subpoena was at
once issued for the surveyor general
who was ordered>to bring the plat. Mr..
Neill appeared without the map.
why have you not got that platg"
asked the court.
'I have instruction from the secreta-
ry Of the interior to allow no original
papers to go out of my Office" was the
reply.

without bonds. This is the will which
Is claimed TO be a forged document.
The entire instrument Is alleged to be
forged. including the attest OF r. !.
Eaton TO the signatures Of Tice and
Smith and the mark OF Nancy M.
Love.
The drawing OF the viii and other
work OF perfecting II are supposed to
have been the joint accomplishment OF
Frank II. Moffitt and George w. Ed
gar. The only part Smith and Tice
are charged TO have played IN the
game was TO sign their names as wit
nesses to what was claimed TO be the
signature or mark OF Nancy NJ. Love.
and afterward appear In the county
court and swear that she made the will
I'm their presence.
When the second viii was presented
In the county court. IL was not claimed
that the first will. wholly In favor OF
Captain Lewis NJ. Love. the husband
OF Nancy NJ. Love. was not genuine:
but II was held that the second will,
which beaueathed the property all to
the children. was a subsequent viii.
which therefore abrogated the first
document filed.
Captain Lewis NJ. Love. by HIS coun-
sci. contested the second will filed. as
serting that his wife never executed II,
and that 10 was forged and bogus. The
case was argued at length before the
county court. and various briefs were
filed in support OF both contestants.
on Oct. 20. 1895. the county court
dismissed the case filed In behalf OF the
children. thus supporting the first will
and Captain Love.
Attorney NJ c. George. who was in
terested In the controversy as one of
the counsel. after comparisons Of
handwriting OF Edgar and Muffit. dis
covered what Is supposed TO be suffi-
cient evidence TO prove that the Gee
ond will was forged instrument. and
also 10 sustain a conviction OF the ac-
cused. This evidence was introduced
before the grand jury.
Frank II. Muffit was agent OF the
Union Mutual Life Insurance COM
pany. and resided with his wife in
East Portland. He is now In the peni-
tentiary serving a sentence for forgery.
He victimized several banks in Marion
county by passing forged orders OF
farmers with whom he transacted a
little insurance business. He was tried
and convicted in Salem about q year
ago. What Muffit may have since dis
closed OF the will transaction Is not
known
George w. Edgar. the fourth OF the
quartet. Is an attorney at law. He
was arrested in Portland for forgery
two years ago. and jumped his bail
bond. His securities were Horatio
Cook and ]. l. Lewis. Nothing has
been heard OF Edgar since his disap-
pearance. Cook and Lewis were sued
on the bond. and a judgment was rem
dered against them for the amount OF
the bond. $500. but the Judgment Is
worthless. Cook Is an ins0lvent. and
Lewis has also been ruined through
the financial crisis.
Jonathan Tice Is also an old-timer.
He was for a number OF years treas
urer and one OF the principal owners
OF the stock OF the South Portland
laundering company.
