RAHT LOSES Ills SUIT.
COURT ADMINISTERS A SINGING REBUkE


Judge HiIes rendered a decision to-
day in the case of William l.. Raht
against the Sewer Mining and Milling
company ct al, giving judgment for
the defendants.
Raht brought suit to have a sale of
IL. 2lf shares of the capital stock OF the
SEWER Mining and Milling company
set aside and annulled and the trans
fer OF n portion of the shares to
Charles Lammersdorf be Cancelled, al
leeing that the assessment, under which
the stock was sold. was void.
The case was tried week or two
ago and submitted. The testimony
showed that in 1898 Raht was one of
the directors of the Sewer company
and the owner of the shares In dispute.
on the eth OF May, 1888. at meet
ing of the board of directors, at when
Kaht was present. resolution proVid-
ing for an assessment of one half cent
per share was unanimously adopted.
The levy was made and Rants stock
was sold for delinquency and bought
by Lammersdorf. The testimony
further showed that Raht knew of the
sale and declared, some time later,
that he intended to not redeem the
believing that additional assessments
would be made upon II. 1t appears
also that he did not take any steps to
challenge the levy or the sale, until
the filing of the suit in 1897.
The court finds 1t unnecessary to de-
eide the question whether or not the
levy was void, because 1t was not
carried out in accordance with the
statute and holds that Raht has shown
such negligence in the matter as not
to entitle him to consideration in
court of equity, especially when the al
legged void levy OF assessment was by
his own procurement and when he had
full knowledge of what was being done
by the court.
'The case which he presents says
the court. lis one where a party lies
by to see whether n mining venture
shall prove profitable to determine
whether he will participate furthe as
Il stakeholder in the corporation. or will
disclalm and disavow that relation.
The evidence shows that plaintiff came
to the conclusion In 1897 that 1t would
be profitable for him to still claim to be
n stockholder In the corporation, and
to repudlate and dsavow his own ac-
tion in procuring what he now terms,
a void levy OF assessment
The defendants interposed plea that
Raht was barred by the statute of lin
itations which the court also sustains.
For the reasons and grounds named
Judge Hiles then orders that a decree
be entered for the defendants.

FUNERAL OF A MISER,
It Was Attended by a Lone Tramp 10 Whom
He Had Given SIS Bill.

The body of the most eccentric char
acter ever known in Montana, James
DARTS, the miser of the Gallatin valley,
has just been buried at Bozeman, The
funeral was attended by no one except
the undertaken and a tramp who
claimed the dead man had once given
him a s. bill. So far as known, this act
of charity was the only one DARTS ever
performed.
The miser was man of perhaps 70
years of age, whose one aim in life
seemed TO be to save money, nickel by
nickel, and lend 1t at heavy interest 1t
Is now figured that his estate will
amount to nearly 100000. mainly in real
estate, mortgages and well-indorsed
commercial paper. AS yet no heirs
have appeared to lay claim to the props
erty.
For many years past DARTS has been
a familiar figure on the streets of Boze-
man, clad in an old brown coat, which
had seen its best days twenty years
ago. secured at the front by two small
nails; a pair of trousers which had been
patched in so many places that none
of the original cloth was to be seen,
and blue flannel shirt. His feet were
incased in old gunny sacks. and over
one was drawn WORKOUT shoe, while
over the other was a broken rubber
boot, which had outlived its usefulness
His white hair was almost hidden from
view beneath a canvas cap, so covered
with dirt as to appear black. on his
hands he always wore a pair of dark
cotton gloves, with the fingers cut off.
Too misery to eat regularly or to
purchase the necessares of life, he
spent a considerable portion of his
time in digging in the garbage boxes in
the rear of the various restaurants.
Such food us he found sustained life,
and that was all that the old man de-
sired. He had a cabin in the woods
near the city-a hut hardly large
enough for n dog kennel. The furni-
ture consisted of a few boards nailed
together to form a rough bedstead, a
box for a chair and a second box for
a table. The bed clothing consisted of
two worn-out horse blankets. In addi-
ton to these things there was a worm
out sheet-iron stove and q broken fry
ing pan,
Where old DARTS came from is not
known except that during the war he
served in the Southern army. This
much he told in his more sociable mo-
ments He had also Travelled consid-
erably, had been through Europe and
South America, and frequently spoke of
men in power In other countries as his
former friends. Although he We a
miser of the most pronounced type. he
was never known to press his debtors
without reason, and more than one of
the business men of the city was saved
from ruin by the dead miser
DARTS was one of the Confederate
soldiers who undertook to waylay and
assassinate President Lincoln while the
latter was on his way to Washington to
be inaugurated. This admission Dartis
made several years ago.

SALE OF STATE LANDS.


The State board of land commissions
ers submitted the following question
to Attorney General Bishop:
A certificate of sale OF State lands

purchaser although r, C and ID were
interested therein. Partial payments
haze been made, others remain to be
paid one of which is now dueA died
without having conveye d to his CO.
owners the legal title to their interests.
Mr. Bishop replied today as follows
You ask, will 1t be proper for b. c..
and ID. to make the payments due and
can the land be decided to them. The
certificate of sale having been executed
in the name of A., who is now de-
ceased. tbs deed must necessarily follow
the same channel, unless there has
been legal TRANSFER of decedent's in
terests. This could only be made by a
legal representative when duly author
lied to do 80. In all such cases proper
proceedings in the probate court are
Indispensable.

THE REPORTS CLASH.
THAT FACT is SAID roiiAyE LEAKED OUT
The Madrid Government Now waiting to
Hear from President Me-
Kiuley.

New York, March IA dispatch to
the World from Madrid says:
1t leaks out, notwithstanding great
reserve IN official quarters. that the
government knows that the Spanish
and the American commissions inquir-
ing into the cause of the blowing up
of the Maine do not agree in the con-
illusions drawn from their respective
Investigations, but that their reports
clash.
The Spanish commission is firm in
the opinion that the catastrophe was
the result of an accidental explosion
inside the Maine. on the other hand
the American court of inquiry, 1t IS
said, eXonOrates the officers of the
Maine from any blame, attributing the
disaster to some unknown exterior
cause.
The Spanish government expected
cable dispatches from the admiral al
Havana, with the final report OF tine
Spanish commission before the meet
ing Of the extraordinary council OF
ministers which was summoned for last
evening. But nothing viii be known
probably concerning the future inten-
tons of the Spanish cabinet until
President Mckinley duly intlmates the
course he proposes to adopt.
1t Is evident that the Spanish gov
ernment has determined to stand on
the defensive. while resoutely keeping
in touch with public sentiment in re-
gard to the upholding Of Spanish in
terests and rights in cuba.
The council was also to examine in
to the case OF Senior Cebalos, whose
conduct will be overlooked If he acted
in private capacity. as he seemed to
indicate when he cabled As hours age
to the Marquis of Comillas, president
of the Spanish transatlantic line, on
account of conversation with Presi-
dent Mckinley, which Comillas immedi-
ately conveyed to Senior Sagasta.
Premier Sagasta says:
IF what passed In the supposed in
terview of President Mckinley with
Senior Ceballos TO secure peace in CubI
is true, he would reject it."
At meeting of a new conservative
party its chief-eect, Senior Silva, said
I'VE have solemnly promised to re-
spect Loyalty whatever parliament may
sanction In regard to the new colonia
regime, and / consider this a sacred
national compromise. The great rul-
ing parties cannot act otherwise ever
