LA RUE SHED
PINTS OF BLOOD
A CUTTING SCRAPE IN THE bad
LANDS IN WHICH ONE MAN
WAS BADI.TsINJURED.

Ed La Rue, with blood streaming from
his face in torrents from a gasn under
the left eye, was conducted to the city
Jail this afternoon by two policemen,
while another officer had in charge Ma
poleon Lacosse, who is booked OF the
charge of assault in the second degree.
Besides suffering from his injuries,
which are serious, Ra Rue was appar-
emily laboring under a jag" of man.
moth proportions. He was unab bic to tell
his name at the Jail, and all the Informal
ton received of the affair was obtained
from Lacosse, who was sober. Lacosse
Is an old-time resident of Butte, and says
that about 10 years 6 he tended bar
for La Rue. when the latter conducted a
saloon IN Galena street.
"A whole crowd of us were in Joe
Chapleau's saloon on East Mercury street
this afternoon said Lacosse. 1--WE were
drinking at the bar and my cigar fell
from my mouth to the floor. l stopped
down to picked it up, when La Rue
kicked the cigar across the floor. He
might have thought that a joke, but 1
didn't. | asked him what he meant, and
he made a pass at me. Then l struck
him with my fist and knocked him down
on the floor. After he fell l gave him
Tie bSSt L Hdu. ana klckeu MIN several
times. No, l did not cut him with a
knife
A large pocket knife was found in
the pockets of LaCosse, and also two
handkerchief covered with blood. The
knife blade Shove no marks of blood,
except in the small notch which is used
for opening it with the finger nail. Some
RED substance was lodged there, which
the police believe is blood. The blade
had evidently been wiped off with a hand
kerchief after the cutting.
La Rue was also bleeding freely from
the mouth, and it is supposed that he
was also cut there, or perhaps was in
Jured internally. Lacosse says he was
working for La Rue as a wood hauler
up TO a few days ago, and only came in
from Divide a short time ago. The ex-
tent of La Rue's injuries could not be
ascertalned. The cut under the eye looks
as If inflicted by some sharp weapon.
La Rues face was swollen out of it's
natural proportions, showing tina he had
been very badly treated.

The testimony of Capt. d. ]. Walters

SALARY GOES Up
The Jury Finds Him Guilty of
the Crime
OF HAVING STOLEN GOODS
In the Cellar of His Cabin-.WaiveS
Time For Sentence and
Gets a Year,

Robert Sillary was tried in Judge
Clancy's court this morning on a charge
of receiving stolen goods knowing the
samet to lave been stolen. Coupled with him
in the alleged offense were Charles Olson,
latter was released shortly after his ar
rest and no one has seen him since that
time. The other three demanded separate
trials and the court granted the request.
The goods found in their possession
consisted of carpenters tools valued at
about 5000 and belonged to II. r. Brown
of 21S Ohio street. On the night of Decem-
Der II thieves entered his shop and stole
the tools. The four men occupied a cab
in not a great ways off. Sillary had form
erly worked for Brown and after the close
of his engagement visited the shop a few
times in quest of a little balance alleged
to be due him from Brown. When the
robbery was discovered suspicion fasten-
ed itself upon him.. A search of his cabin
revealed the tools in the cellar. On the
witness stand today he said he did not
know they were there. He further stated
that he had spent three years in the init
ed States navy, serving as a blacksmith
on the battleship Indiana. The term of
his enlistment mad expired in June 1897
and he had then left the employ of the
government and drifted from place to
place, finally landing in Butte about a
month before the robbery. While on the
Indiana the firing of the big guns had
rendered him almost deaf.
only half an hour was consumed in Sc.
curing a jury and an hour and a half in
presenting all the facts to lit. Deciding
upon a verdict took up more time than all
OF the other work combined, for at 2:3O
o'clock none had been reached and tho
prospects for an immediate finding were
not tiattering. 1t was considered among
the court people that the fate Of Searles
and olson rested upon the result of Sill
larys trial., for the prosecuting attorney
MAD more clrcumstantial evidence against
HIM than any of the others.
A few minutes before 3 o'clock the Jury
walked into court with a verdict Of
guilty, leaving the punishment to be fixed
by the judge.
AS soon as the result was made sura
py a poll of the jury, Dan Yancey, the
prisoner attorney, said SiIlary would
waive time for sentence. He made a plea
1of lehlency, asking the judge to make
me sentence a jail one instead of one in
the penitentiary.
Il am opposed to these Jail sentences,
answered the court. I'VE have placed in
JAN people guilty of crime and found
Gheln running about the corridors. Once
l sent a female to the county Jail to serve
SIX months for grand larceny, and he
Iore ner time was out l found out she
was down in the bad ands. l believe a
grand larcenist is better than a petit
iarcenlst anyway Mr.. Sillary, you have
been a soldier in the navy and IN there
lore not make your sentence as heavy
as 1t could be made. I'll give you one
year in the p~enitentiary."
Inc case against -Searles was then
called for trial. he prisoner was repre-
sented by Al, 'ney William D.. Bur
