INDICTED FOR PERJURY
Bartlett Must Face Trial on a
Serious Charge.
HE SWORE TO AN UNTRUTH
That Is the Charge Made by His Creditors
and the Grand Jury, After In
vestigation, Came to the
Same Conclusion.

Fred A. Bartlett, who early in Feb
ruary petitioned the United States
court to be adjudged bankrupt, and
who subsequently was preliminarily ex-
amined before Commissioner Wood on
the charge of perjury and held to the
grand jury was by that body indict-
ed. Mr.. Bartlett conducted furnish
ing store in the Lizzie block on the
corner of Main and Park streets. One
day he sold out his business to Ras
Rochester, receiving something like
$4,000 in cash. He paid $1,000 claim
held by the First National bank and
in Thompson Campbell's court of
bankruptcy, an annex to the United
States court, testified that he had paid
the balance to his wife, who he said,
held claim for that amount against
his business. 1t was upon this asser-
ton that the prosecution of the charge
of perjury hinged. Many creditors
held that the debt of the wife in this
case was fictitious: that in swearing to
the correctness of his schedules Bart
lett Wilfully swGre to what he knew
to be untrue. The grand jury, after
conclusion, according to it's findings,
the substance of which follow:
That at the county of Silver Bow,
state of Montana, and within the dis
trict of Montana aforesaid. on the Sth
day of February, 1899, Fred A. Bart
lett filed his petition as a voluntary
bankrupt, under the laws of the Unit
ed States, whereupon it became and
was then and there material and re-
uuire1 by law for the said Fred A
Bartlett to accompany his said petit
ton and to prepare, make oath to
and file Herewith a schedule of his
property showing the amount and kind
of property, the location thereof its
money value in detail, q list of his
creditors, the amount owed to each of
them, etc. And on the It'll day of Feb
ruary the said Bartlett prepared his
said schedule of his property and ap-
peared in person before Robert Coombs.
a duly qualified notary public, and was
then and there duly sworn by said
Coombs, and the said Bartlett then and
there took his oath before the said
Robert Coombs to speak the TRUTH the
whole truth and nothing but the truth,
touching the matters stated in his
schedule to be statement of all his
assets. both real and personal.
And the grand jurors upon their
oaths do further present that the said
Fred A. Bartlett, so being sworn and
having taken his oath as aforesaid on
the Tth day of February wilfully and
corruptly and contrary to his said oath
did swear and depose and state in his
said schedule of property before the
said notary public, among other things
in substance and to effect following,
that he owned household goods furn-
ture, household stores, wearing apparel
The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1899-03-18

and ornaments of the person to the
value of 5000 and no more, and that
there were debts due the said Fred
Bartlett to the amount of S168.90, and
no more. The said Bartlett did then
and there further in said schedule IN
substance and in effect declare, de-
pose and state that the said household
goods and debts were the only and
property which he had and owned,
whereas in truth and in fact it was
not and is not true and was not and
is not all the property which Bart
lett owned, and at the time OF said
swearing and deposing and so making
his said statement in his schedule Bart
lett did not believe it to be true that
the said furniture and debts were all
the property that he owned, but tbs
said Bartlett then and there we'll knew
that in addition to the said property
so set forth he was the owner of this
sum of $1,000 in money. and the owner
of personal property of the value of
$1,000 which said schedule so prepared
as aforesaid by Bartlett and made un-
der oath and sworn to together with
his petition to be adjudged volun-
tary bankrupt. =
And so the grand jurors, upon their,
oaths do say that Fred A. Bartlett in
manner and form, having taken an
oath before a competent tribunal in
case wherein the law Of the United
States authorizes an oath to be adj
mnistered that he would trutifl,iiy de-
pose and testify and tell the truth, the
whole truth, and nothing but the truth,
wifully and knowingly and contrary to
said oath did depose and state material
matters which he then and there knew
to be false and thereby did commit
wilful and corrupt perjury against the
form of the statute in such case made
and provided, and against the peace
and dignity of the United States of
America"
Bartlett was arrested yesterday by
the United States marshaPs office, and
furnished bonds in the sum of $4,000.

OUR NEAR EXCHANGES.

Manila Times:
Last Friday night burglars entered
jain Bros Office, but were not success
ful in procuring anything. From there
they went to Quinn & Co.'s office and
forced an enterance. Mr.. Arnold had
left the door of the safe unlocked as
there was nothing of value deposited in
it with the exception of few papers
and about 40 cents in postage stamps in
the small iron box. This they took out
and carried it down to box car where
it was broken open. They took the
stamps but left the papers and the box
in the car where they were found next
morning by Mr.. jackson and returned
to the owner.
DIR. Graham and wife returned Fri
day evening from Huro n, South Dako-
ia, their son Robert, who has been
working up there for the past year, ac-
companied them and will remain here.
The doctor has given G. G. Hays charge
of his farm there and he will operate

FROM PHILIPPINE ISLANDS.
SAN ANTONIO, P. ia
AUGUST %. '99.

AUGUST ~. .99.
The place we are at now is in the
country with only few buildings. We
are about six miles from the railroad.
I will now try to explain country
town here. All the houses are made
out of bamboo, nails are unknown here.
The bark of bamboo is stout like rope.
They tie the house with this bark. The
roof is made out of the leaves of the
bamboo. The floor is made out of bam-
boo Stats and are placed about of an
inch apart. The floor is about four or
five feet above the ground on account
of the wet weather. The Stats of the
floor are tied down with the bark of the
bamboo. The steps that lead into the
house are made of two large bamboo
poles on the out edge. Each step has
two small bamboo poles on each side
with peg running through both small
and large pole. Now you have the
house the best l can explain it.
Now the town is all one street, some
times two miles long. All the houses
are about the same. Each house
has bananas and such stuff to sell and
that is about all they do have.
Our regiment has only been in one
days fighting, but expect to start on an
advance in few days. Lew Wegener,
formerly cigarmaker of Denison, was
killed. He was in my company.
We have nice quarters here, have
regular dining room, Cinnamon wait
ers, tables, etc.
Our regiment is the best equipped on
these islands. Each company has four
mules and six Cinnamon to do our
work, so we have nothing to do only
guard duty and that only comes about
every seven days. Twas in the scrap
with the regiment. l was on special
duty in San Fernando doing guard
duty, guarding our company's staff
when they left.
