IT IS STILL WORSE
Severe EVidsnc, Against burlington

THEY'VE BEEN MAKING MONEY

plete Counterfeiting Outfit
They May Go to Deer

James burlington and Robert Coryell.
who were arrested a week ago last
night for enticing Martin Brown into
their cabin in the Hesperus lode and
going through him after they had given
him some Knockout drops in a glass of
beer. will have a more serious charge
than that of robbery to answer TO. and
their old friends i'm the penitentiary at
Deer Lodge, from whom they have been
separated but a short time, may look
FOR their return at an early date.
After locking the prisoners up on the
night of their arrest. the police returned
TO their cabin and made a thorough
search OF IL, with results that were of
both surprising and pleasing nature.
They found a complete counterfelting
outfit hidden around the cabin, together
with some convincing evidence of its
use In the shape OF two bogus silver
dollars. The outfit included crucibles,
marble dies, dust molds, frames for
holding the molds, pulverized glass.
acids and everything else which mod
ern science has devised for the manu-
facture of bogus money. There was al
so large supply of white metal alloy.
from which the dollars that were cal
culated to deceive the unwary were
made. Some of the tools were found in
grip sack which was concealed In the
wall. and the rest of them were discov-
cred among the ashes in the stove
catalogue of chemicals which are
used by counterfeiters was unearthed,
and with IL was found a receipt show
ing that the prisoners had purchased
some of them. The two silver dollars
which were found would have been
very clever counterfeits had IL not been
for the fact that the molds cracked
while they were being made. They had
the genuine ring, which was produced
by means of the powdered glass. and
they gave every evidence of expert
workmanship. From the condition OF
the molds and other tools the police
came TO the conclusion that Curing
ton and Coryell had been turning out
bogus dollars i'm wholesale quantities.
and they kept their find secret in the
hope of being able to run down some Of
their correspondents or accomplices.
The police believe that they have added
500 or $500 in counterfeits to the circu-
lating medium since their release from
the penitentiary a few weeks ago.
Yesterday afternoon the plan of the
officers had matured to such an extent
that Detective Meiklejohn visited the
county Jail and arrested both Curing
ton and Coryell for counterfeiting and
having counterfeiting tools i'm their pos
session. They were arraigned before
United States Commissioner McMur-
phey and were given "A hours in which
TO consult counsel Their bonds were
fixed at 81 900. in default of which they
were returned to jail.

THEY DOPED MARTIN
COryell and burlington Arrested on a
United States Charge.
ROBBED A FELLOW CONVICT
Brown Had Been Out of the Pen
Only a Short Time When His
Old Associates Relieved
Him of $40.
ROBBED A FELLOW CONVICT

A complaint was filed in police court
yesterday, charging Thad Kellogg with
attempting to extort money from
James Leahy. He waived examination
and was held to the district court un-
der bonds of s., 500 which he was una
BILE to furnish.
The case of the state against James
burlington and II. Coryell, who are
charged with having doped Martin
Brown and robbed him of $40, was set
for o'clock yesterday afternoon, but
as they were arrested on a United
States charge a few minutes before
they were brought into court, the case
was continued for a week and il will
probably be dismissed. Brown has
only been out of the penitentiary a few
days longer than Coryell and Curing
ton, and has not yet been restored to
citizenship. The money which was
stolen from him was given him by
Warden McTague when he left the
penitentiary, with which to pay for
having his eyes treated. Brown got
into fight with some other prisoners
while in the penitentiary and one of
his eyes was punched out. Although
the officials Of the penitentiary were in
no way responsible for the accident,
Tom McTague gave him $50 when he
was turned out.
The complaints in the old state
cases against James Page and Alex
Mccain were withdrawn, the costs
paid and the cases dismissed. On Feb.
l. Page and Mccain had a dispute in
John Pages saloon at No rs East
Quartz street. Mccain served notice
ON Page that he intended to kill him
and returned in a few minutes with a
six-shooter in his hand. Page took the
gun away from him and beat him over
the head with 1t, injuring him serious
ly. After he recovered the case was
settled out of court.
A. B. Botchford and wife and Mr..
and Mrs. w. L. Kidwell denied that
they had disturbed the peace of East
Mercury street and they will explain
how the play came up this afternoon.
George Devine and Sam Morrigan,
charged with being state Migrants, will
be tried tomorrow afternoon
McGinty, who is charged with be-
ing supported by dissolute
woman, will be given hear
ing at 4 O'Clock this afternoon. WILL

who arrested him. John Mangan, drunk,

RENALS PARDONED.
He Was Sentenced From silver Bow
County for Five Years in 1892.


County for Five Years in 1892.
Special Dispatch to the Standard
Helena, Feb. Ex-Governor Richards
to-day pardoned Frank Renals. who
was sent up from Butte i'm 1892 for
forgery. The governor. in giving his
reasons for clemency to the board of
pardons, says: Gentlemen: | hereby
grant a free and unconditional pardon
to Frank Renals subject TO your APP
prevail, the same to take effect as soon
as the necessary forms of law are com
piled with. Renals was convicted OF
the crime of forgery in Silver Bow
county and sentenced to a term of five
years in the penitentiary. With good
time allowance, his term will expire
Aug. 26, 1896. At the time the crime
was committed, Renals was only 20
years of age and was, IL seems, made
the victim of a designing woman who
became the beneficiary of his act. He
comes Of a good family, and previous
to his conviction. bore an unusually
good reputation. The youth Of the
convict, the conditions under which the
crime was committed, his present poor
health and the assurance that he will
redeem himself before the world when
released, all plead for executive Glenn
ency in his behalf.
"Your attention is respectfully called
tached, bearing on his case. Most Of
these letters and petitions were receiv-
ed during the year following the con-
viction of Renals in November 1892
but / deemed IL too early at that time
to accord them favorable consideration.
Inasmuch as his term has so nearly
expired. ] now believe that the ends Of
justice can be best served by his re-
lease from the penitentiary, and have
reached this opinion only after careful
investigation and mature reflection.
His pardon is asked for by upwards
of $50 citizens of Silver Bow county
representing the sentiment of the 10
cality in which the crime was COM
mitted Among those who petition for
executive clemency for this man are
such prominent citizens of that county
as Lee Mantle. Charles :. Warren.

BUTTE PLEASED.
elm Old Kentucky" Played to ~ Large
House-1he Perform srs Did Well.


I'm Old Kentucky" that thrilling
play of Southern life. which scored
such a splendid success in Butte last
season, started in last night to break
last years record Maguire's opera
house was packed and the perform
ance was in some respects an improve
ment even over the excellent presenta-
ton last season. Laura Burt added a
great deal to the charm of the charac-
ter of Madge Briefly, the heroine, and
also added many to her host OF admir-
ers in Butte. Miss Burt is charming
in the character of the innocent and
honest mountain girl and stunning as
the jockey who rides Queen Bess to
victory. H. b. Bradley makes an ideal
Kentucky colonel and Ralph Stuart as
Frank Layson, a younger Kentuckian,
is fully up to the requirements of the
character and he is withal good ac-
tor. Pierce Kingsley, as Joe Lorrey,
the young moonshiner showed his ca
pability of good work. Kate Glass
word is an actress of great merit and
was well received, and Paul Scott, the
villain, and Miss Snyder, as the viii
lain's unfortunate daughter, were also
good in their parts. John II. Mack,
the celebrated banjoist. formerly with
Cleveland's MINISTRIES. filled the part of
Old Neb, the negro. in a most capable
manner. He was true to life in the
best character of the play and made the
best old negro part Butte has ever
seen.
The play is full of effective scenery
and the great horse race Is as real and
exciting as any bit of realism ever pro-
duced on a stage. The picanniny band
with Burt Grant, the buck dancer, are
also a great feature in I'm Old Ken
lucky" The play will be repeated TO-
night and tomorrow night and at a
Wednesday matinee.
