A THRIVING BUSINESS
Nipped in the Bud by the De-
tectiveS.
JOHN JARDINE'S GRAFT
Sold the Gas Company's Tar to Many
Customers and Pocketed the
Proceeds Caught Dead
to Rights.

A swindling game by which the
Butte Gas Light and Coke company is
believed to have been systemati cally
mulcted for some time was discovered
to the police yesterday and John JAR
dine, an employee Of the company, and
John Hanlon, a tar roofer, are, as a
consequence, undrr arrest, the one
charged with robbng his employers
and the other with receiving stolen
property knowing it to have been
stolen
Jardine was employed as yardman at
the gas company's plant in the south
ern part of the city A product of the
gas plant is tar, Which is sold for tar
roofing and other purposes for which
this kind of tar is used. The company
sells the tar for S. a barrel and when
one wishes to buy tar he goes to the
company's uptown office and gets an Or
der on the yardman. whose duty it is to
issue the tar as per the order.
The system afforded Jardine an OPP
portunity to make money easy which,
II dfpVblS, IlC was lioL SlO" W avail
himself Of for, it seems, he formed
coalition with certain persons who use
large quantities Of tar, by which they
would go to the office of the company,
get an order, say for one or two bar
rels of tar, for which Jardine would
charge them the usual price, and then
issue as many more barrels as desired
for which he would charge SO a barrel
and pocket the proceeds. Persons I'M
scrupulous enough to be glad to profit
by such a game and get their tar cheap
are said to have been not a few, and
Jardine is said to have driven a thirty
ing business.
But such transactions are generally
discovered sooner Of later and this case
proved no exception to the rule, for
Jardine, in his success, overstepped
himself and at length commenced to
sell tar to persons whom he did not
take into his confidence and this
proved his undoing. One of this char
acter of customers called at the office
of the company few days ago for an
order for tar. When charged 81 a barrel
he kicked and said he could buy it at
the works for So. Manager Feurtado at
once smelled a mouse. but said nothing
and laid a trap. He marked a quantity
of money and then arranged with
couple of people he could trust to go to
the plant yesterday at a stated hour to
buy tar Mr. Feurtado then sent for
Detective Murphy and together they
went to the works and secreted them
selves in a shed and awaited develop
ments. Soon the two parties put in an
appearance and Jardine sold them tar
to the amount of three barrels, for

The "cstsidc Park VIII Open Its Gates
To- norroN.

Westside Coursine park, under the
management CT G. f. Macdoueall. will
throw its gates open to the public to-
morrow at l y, m. There are about
20 good hares in the field. and while
the intended improvements have not
all been completed. changes have been
made which will very much improve
the quality of the sport. The bad
weather so long prolonged has retard-
ed the work, but the escape fence
across the east end is completed
50 that wherever a hare reaches the
east end he will be only a few feet
from safety. Kennels have been built
for the accommodation Of The dogs,
the stand has been improved to some
extent. though the intended improve
ments are not finished, and the new
slipping chute is ready. by means of
which the dogs will be slipped in plain
view of, the stand, not behind a fence
as formerly.
The management has promulgated a
set Of rules for the government of the
park. modelled somewhat on those in
force at the race track last season,
and these rules, Mr. Macdougall says,
will be enforced to the letter. DOp-

at the McDermott In close company
with Mr. Redden's name on the register
was the name of young lady, also from
Neihart. This suggested to the minds
of some of Mr. Redden's friends the
idea of matrimony, and. as a matter of
course, it was expected that some one
of Butte's many preachers would be
called in to perform the ceremony One
young man said that he was sure that
Dan never intended to do such a thing,
brushing aside the suggestion with the
remark: Dan is here on mining bust
ness and the young lady no doubt, is
a relative or friend whom he escorted

The papers next morning did not con-

ding, but it has come to pass that there
was a wedding. after all, as is shown in
the following, printed in the Salt Lake
Herald Wednesday morning:
"A quiet wedding was celebrated in
the Cullen parlor last night The bride
was Miss May Farrell and the groom
was Dan Redden. Both are from Mel

BUTTE NEWS.
IT'S AN ABSURD RUMOR
General Miners Strike Has No
Foundation.
DENIED BY THE PRESIDENT
Boyce Says There Is Not the Slightest
Truth in the Story-Bankers Are
Buying Less Silver Than
the Usual Amount.
DENIED BY THE PRESIDENT

\ startling rumor was afloat in Butte
yesterday to the effect that the West
arn Federation of miners had taken up
the fight of the Occur d Alene strikers
and had issued an order for a general
strike throughout the Northwest, to
take effect to-day unless the demands
Of the Wardner miners We're acceded to.
The story came from the East. and nu-
merous inquiries as to the ruth of it
were received from all over the coun-
Try. The story further had it that
bankers n Butte and elsewhere were
0uying up silver in anticipation of
ong shut down Of the mines which re-
suited in sending the price of silver up
Turing the past few days.
\ Standard reporter called upon Ed
ward Boyce. president of the Western
Federation. at his office in Butte. and
also interviewed q number of bankers
with the result that the story, which
appears absurd upon its face, was PROV
en- to be without the least foundation on
facts. The bankers stated thai never
in the history of Butte had they pur-
chased less silver than at present, and
President BOyce stated that there WAS
not she slightest truth in the story as
far as it refers to a general strike or
that the Wardner trouble had been
taken up by the federation or its exec
utiVe board. 1t has also ben reported
that Mr.. Boyce was at the seat of the
trouble in Idaho, but he has nos been
there Since the strike was inauguratad
last Monday. He came down from
British Columbia about two weeks ago
and at that time stopped in Wardnor.
The strikers have in no way called
upon the federation for assistance and
1t is not likely that they will, for they
Will be able to take care Of themselves
and the trouble will probably be ad-
justed without Interference from the
outside.
Il wish you would make this state
ment relative to the Wardner trouble"
said MI BoyCe, that the strikers are
not demanding a recognition of their
union. They are simply asking to be
paid the regular wages esta blished for
that district regardless of any union.
They do not ask the mining companies
to recognize their union. The estab-
same as in Butte-$3.50 for miners and

sing only5$3 and $50. &
The rules of the federation require
all local and subordinate unions to give
the federation board a notice of at
least Is days Of any intention to make
demand for change in the scale of
wages. Such notice was received from
