JACK CONLEY'S OPINION.
If the U. p Robbers Are in Black Canyon
They May BE Frozen Out.

Jack Conley sheriff of Deer Lodge
county was in the city yesterday for a
few hours He said that everywhere he
has been since the big Union Pacific train
robbery, two weeks ago, the talk has been
OF the possible whereabouts of the ban
dts. Jack knows every foot of the coun-
try where the robbers are supposed by
some to be in hiding. He says that if
they are in a certain part of Black can
yon, the only way TO capture them is to
freeze them out in the winter There is a
small park in the canyon which is next
to impossible to reach. Access to it is
down precipitous cliffs, a most dangerous
undertaking. There are fish and game
and plenty of grass, A party of men can
live there very nicely during the summer,
at the same time guard the entrances
with little danger of capture by outside
forces.

SUMMER Is HERE.
Many People Will Spend Sunday in the
Country.

If to-day's weather is in line with that
of the past few days there will be a large
outflowing of young and old to-day to
the wooded hills near the city. Yesterday
not less than 100 families declared that it
was their intention to spend the day in
the green hills with their children and
friends. A number of wagon loads will
go out to Basin gulch. Others will spend
the day at Nine Mile; more will go to
Columbia Gardens. 1t promises to be a
fair day, and if it is there is going to be
a large number of sunburned people in
town tonight This weather is about the
best thing seen in these parts for nine
months.

ARREST FOR ROBBERY.
AN OLD CRIME BROUGHT TO MIND-THE
sURDAM THEFT.

In July, 1893 a robbery was committed
at the residence of n. l.. Surdam in
Antwerp. 1925, consisting of twenty $50
bills, twenty $50 gold pieces and twenty
five silver dollars, was stolen from a
trunk which the old gentleman, distrust-
ing banks, used as his strong box. A
gold watch and chain was taken at the
same time. Suspicion pointed to one
Mary A Neale, domestic in the Surdam
family, but no arrests were ever made
until few days since, when the woman
was arrested in Kalamazoo, on a war
rant issued by Justice Mason, charging
her with the robbery. Being arraigned
before the magistrate, she demanded an
examination which was set down for the
10Th inst, and in default of bail she was
committed to Jail, but it is expected that
she will eventually waive examination,
as she has already made a full confes-
sion to the officers, the details of which
have not yet been made public.
1t was not believed that the Neale
woman was alone in the commission of
the crime and her arrest led to the APP
prehension of Daniel Cobbledick of Al
mena as an accomplice in the matter.
Mr.. Cobbledick was arraigned before
Justice Rowland last Monday, waived
examination and, in default of $1,000
bail. was committed to Jail to await the
fling of an information against him. He
denies having assisted at the robbery
but admits receiving the stolen property
from the Neale woman and that he knew
when he took it that she had stolen it.
The probabilities are that there will
be no trial of either one of the parties
that they will both plead guilty, hoping
to get milder sentence by so doing
This prosecution would have been out.
lawed in couple of months, and the
fact that the parties who committed the
crime are at last in fair way of being
brought to justice reflects great credit
on the prosecutor, the sheriff and all
who have assisted them in the matter
The Surdams have been peculiarly
unfortunate in the matter of robberies
On the 25th day of March, 1895, their
residence was again burglarized and the
sum of $50 stolen. For this crime one
Charles Noble was arrested, tried and
convicted and, on the 7th day of October
1896, sentenced to Jackson for term oi
fifteen years, where he is now doing
time.

The American Monthly Review of Re-
views for May devotes considerable space
to survey of recent developments ia
American cities. The editor comments
on the reelection of Mayor Carter Har-
rison in Chicago, on Mayor Jones' re-
markable triumph in Toledo, on the De-
troit project for municipal ownership OF
the street railways, and on the general
situation in Boston, San Francisco, Min
neapolis, Cleveland, Denver, st. Louis,
Philadelphia, Pittsburg and New York.
DIR. Shaw also contributes a special
study of the new San Francisco charter

Mr.. George E. Hooker gives some inter-

ministration of Boston.
"The American girl has set the stand
ard of beauty for the whole world, and
unlike most sweeping statements, there
never was one so true, even in its finest
analysis" writes Edward Box in the May
Ladies' Home Journal. "And not only
is this true of the American girls beauty,
but it goes further and is true of her
chic and her brightness. She is the clever
est and most graceful girl in the world.
Likewise is she the best dressed. The
French may set the fashions, but it takes
an American girl to wear them. No girl
so completely understands the art of
dressing well. See, for a moment, how
true this is of the girl of limited income
she who is out in the world earning
her daily bread. No girl in the world
dresses more becomingly than the self
supporting girl of America. Everyone
who has seen anything of the world and
of the working-girls of other nations
knows how literally true this is"

BENBROOK SILL IN JAIL.
Application For Reduction of Bonds
Will Be Made.

John H. Benbrook is still in Jail
Neither bail nor bonds for him have
been secured yet, nor has an applica-
ton been made for a reduction from

1t is believed, however. that an ao-
plication will be made on Monday or
Tuesday TO a judge of the district
court. 1t is reported that Benbrook's
friends are finding difficulty in securing
$50 600 in cash. Justice Pardee init
mated at the time he filed the bond
that a reduction might be granted if
the amount could not be secured. His
idea was that bond should be suffi-
cient to hold a defendant, and should,
therefore. be proportional to his means.
This argument will be made by Ben
brooks attorneys in a petition for re-
duction. :
One of the purposes of keeping him
in Jail several days before an applica-
ton is made is to show that efforts to
secure the amount have been unavail-
ing.

TELLS A THRILLING STORY
ROBBER SHOT AT JUDGE NOR
RELL'S NEPHEW.
Young Man Discovered the Intruder
By Looking Into the Mirror-Used
the Judges Gun.

Marion Norrell, the 1S-year-old son
of Doc Norrell and nephew
of Judge Norrell, told the po-
lice a thrilling story yesterday after
noon of an occurrence at his fathers
house, 245 West Fifth South street, at
about 4:45. The young man claims to
have narrowely escaped with his life.
He says that upon going home at the
hour mentioned he walked upstairs and
into his OWN room, and had just en-
tered when he heard a noise in his
uncle's room. Thinking the judge was
dressing he went in, but could see no
one. Again he heard a noise and, glanc
ing into the mirror. says he saw q man
behind the door. He shouted as loud
as possible, he claimed, whereat the
intruder fired point blank at him.
Young Norrell says he fell from fright
at the shot, and the last he remembers
is hearing the man run downstairs.
In confederation of his story, Norrell
took Sergeant Burbidge and Officer
Chase to the house, and sure enough the
bullet had gone through the mirror
and lodged in the wall. 1t was fired
from Judge Norrell's pistol. which had
been taken from the bureau drawer,
and which the young man claims to
have afterward found at the top of the
staircase, utilized by the bold robber
in making his escape.
The officers investigated. They found
nothing disturbed or no signs of for
chile entrance. The most mysterious
discovery was that the mirror was
powder burned around. the bullet hole
for a space of thirteen inches in di-
ameter, which could only be while the
gun was four feet from the object, at
most, yet the distance between the door
where the robber is supposed to have
stood and the mirror is fully fifteen
feet. 1t is considered very strange
that so bold a man. after firing a shot
at some one, should lay his pistol on
the stairway.
a lady sitting on the lawn next door
to NorrelFs heard the shot, but says
she did not hear the fellow escape.
Neither did gentleman on the oppo-
site side of the house.
Norrell is employed at the Rio Grande
Western ticket office.
