ENGAGEMENT CANCELLED.
Manager Mcfarland Would Not Permit
the Failure to BE Repeated.

Manager Mcfarland Would Not Permit
the Failure to BE Repeated.
The fiat failure of THE Widow Wig
giles" probably ended the starring tour
of Miss st. George Hussey. Her Butte
engagement was Cancelled yesterday
and the opera house was dark last
night 1t had been announced that She
would discard "The Widow and ap-
pear last night in another play Of the
same character, which is called Mrs.
B. Shaughnessy," but she did not, and
it was stated yesterday afternoon that
Miss Hussey was i'll and could not play
and that the engagement would there
fore be Cancelled.
The fact is, however, that Manager
Mcfarland informed the manager of
the company early yesterday morning
that the opera house would be closed
during the remainder of the week, as he
could not afford to risk another per-
Torrance like that of Thursday night
Miss Hussey's manager recognized the
force of Mr.. McFarland's position and
finally agreed with him. 1t is probable
that the company will be disbanded
and if Miss Hussey will take the advice
of good friends she will make up her
mind that she has had enough of star
ring and will return to New York and
seek an engagement with some good
company, where she can display her
special talents just enough and not too
much to tire anyone.

JEFFRIES THE FAVoRlTE.
Yet the Sailor BOY Had Many Warm
Friends In the Crowd,

The town was full of excitement last
night and Sharkey and Jeffries were the
cause of all of 1t. Men who make a prac-
tice of coming down town of night during
the holiday season only We're seen last
night "rubbering' at the bulletin windows
in different parts of the city and they
were as eager as the rest of them TO get
a glimpse of the latest returns from the
scene of action at the Coney Island club.
While there was not much money bet
on the result. still the excitement and
enthusiasm were out In force and cigars
were bet with that reckless abandon
Characteristic of the race track crowds
Jeffries was the fayorite among the men
who cared to express their preference
still the sailor had great many friends,
and now after the battle, which was evil
IDENTIFY the property of either man at the
finish. Sharkey's list of butte friends has
doubled.
AS usual. the Standard was first to fash
a bulletin. The other newspapers began
to post bulletins long after tremendous
crowd had collected in front Of the
Standard office. reading the prelminarics
which served to whet the appetites of the
greedy anticipators SO great was the
crush in front of the Standard office that
the railing protecting the ladies' entrance
to the bowling alley underneath was COM
pletely broken down and carried or
thrown away by the mob.

IN POLICE COURT,
A Morphine Fiend viii Be Tried for
Stealing.

William Anderson, the morphine
tend who was found on the street
about ten days ago with a woman's
cape in his possession, and who gave
the officer a lively chase when pla ced
under arrest, will have to stand trial
for stealing the garment. 1t was sus-
pected the cape was stolen, but as no
one knew whom it belonged to, he was
was only held for vagrancy. Before
his trial came up, however, the police
learned that the cape belonged to Mrs.
George Davidson Of Billings, and had
been stolen from the Chequamegon
restaurant during the soldiers recep-
ton. Accordingly when the vagrancy
case was called in the police court
yesterday that case was dismissed and
a charge of having stolen goods in his
possession was filed against Anderson

turber, who only finished a term at the
city Jail few days ago, was given an
other five-day sentence by Judge Sui

BEFORE THE EXAMINER.
Testimony in the Hersbfield and Chivers
Case,

Case.
Testimony was taken before Special
Examiner Blake yesterday in the case of
Aaron Hershtied and j. W. Chvers, in
dicted last spring by the federal grand
jury on the charge of misappropriating
the funds of the State National bank of
Miles City, of which institution the de-
PENDANTS were officials. The case comes
up on motion to quash the indictment
on the ground that one of the jurors, j.
M. Merrill, was not citizen of this state,
1t being held that he was bona fide resi-
dent of the state of California. w. F.
Sanders appeared for the bankers and
District Attorney w. B. Rodgers for the
United States. Mr.. Merrill was the only
witness, and his testimony was entirely
with reference to his residence He testt-
fled that about 10 years ago he purchased
100000 residence in Oakland, Cal, and
that for the greater part Of the time since
then his wife and son have made that
city their permanent residence. He said
that most of the time since he purchased
the property in Oakland his business in
this state has kept him here, and while
he admitted that he had executed deeds
and other conveyances in which he desig-
mated his residence as California, he con-
sidered that his almost continual resi-
dence in this state entitled him to claim
1t as his residence. He voted in Oakland
for presidential electors in 1892, and since
then has voted in this state. He said that
he regarded Oakland as the permanent
residence of his family and that If he had
no business interests In this state he
would reside permanently with his family
in Oakland. His son is attending school
in Oakland and he purchased the home
there. intending to make it the permanerd
abode of his family and himself.
When he was called to the grand jury
he supposed that he was to be regarded
as a resident of this state having been
here continually for about a year next
preceding the impaneling of the jury, all
of his business interests being in this
state.

A NARROW ESCAPE.
Negligent Workmen Put Up Only One
Danger Signal

DR.. Haviland met with an accident
night before last which came very close
to resulting seriously. He was on his
way to attend a patient in West Por-
phyry street, apd drove into a trench
that had been dug in the street for lay
ing pipes. The trench was dug straight
across the street, with only a narrow
draw between for teams to pass The
Workmen had left lantern as dan
ger signal on one side of the road, but
none on the other, and DR.. Sullivan
supposing the whole of that side of the
street was all right, drove along the
side. His horse got into the trench
with both feet, and DR.. Sullivan was
thrown out over the dashboard. Fortu-
nately he struck on a pile of sand and
received no worse injury than a bad
shaking up, but the horse was quite
badly hurt, and it took several hours
to dig him out.

FAMOUS MILLS SOLD.
The GalIegO Structures at Richmond
Bring SIo5,00O.

RICHMOND, Va, Oct. 5.-The famous
Gallego FIGURING Mills were sold yester-
day under decree of the court at public
auction for s105000. The purchaser was
Mr. n. W. Bowe, of this city, who repre-
sents a syndicate, it is said, of the holders
OF the bonds of the company. What they
propose to do with the plant, should the
sale be confirmed, is not known.
The mill is bonded for $250.000. The
structure is one of the most substantial OF
its kind in the South. The mills were
founded over a century ago, and have been
burned down twice. The present structure
was erected by its old owners, Warwick
& Barksdale. after its destruction at the
evacuation of Richmond. The cost was
1856, 900.
The property was for many years the
most valuable of its kind in the country.
Its profits in one year amounted to some
thing like 100000. Besides the mill prop
er, a warehouse adjoining was sold yester-
day for $500. 1t is believed that both
sales will be confirmed by the court.

There is doubtless far greater loss of

THE WAR TAXES TO STAND.
Secretary Gage VIII Not Recommend
Their Repeal.

Treasury officials are greatly pleased
with the handsome showing of the receipts
which now almost daily exceed eXpecta-

sons to believe that the Secretary of the
Treasury will recommend to Congress the
repeal of some of the war taxes, but such
is not the case.
1t is stated at the Treasury today that
no recommendation for the repeal of any
portion of the war revenue tax will tie
made by the Secretary in his report to
Congress. Should there be a large surplus
at the end of the fiscal year, June 80, 1900.
it is said that Congress at the short ses-
sion will probably take some action.
