BUTTE NEWS.
SHORT LINE MEN WON
But Butte Put Up a Good Game
of Ball.
A STREAK OF BAD LUCK
They Were Beaten by Score OF Six
to Two-It Was a Pretty Exh-
bltion of the Great National
Game.

The Buttes played good game of
baseball Saturday with the Short Line
in Salt Lake, but hard luck on Buttes
part gave the victory to the Utahans.
The Herald tells about it as follows:
The visitors from Butte were treat
ed to a manifestation of what Salt
Lake is doing in baseball this season,
The Short Lines beat them at Fort
Douglas by score of 6 to 2. The game
was one of the closest and prettiest
exhibitions of ball in Salt Lake this
season, although the rain had placed
the grounds in very slippery con-
dition, making it hard and uncertain
work for the players. The grand stand
did not give any evidence of a heavy
invasion on the part of the ball pub
lic but the 800 people who attended
were not sorry they came.
1t was case of toss up a nickel
and see who wins" up to the very be-
ginning of the eighth inning. In the
first, Perham got to first on an error
by Margetts, who hadn't yet had time
TO loosen up his joints, but the Butte
man got no farther. Waller got to
third on an error by Gallagher, and
Taylor was caught thinking too hard
between first and second, which cooked
the Short Line meal.
Butte filled the bags in the second,
and Gallagher made the first run, on a
drive by Cleveland. 1t was a close
shave at home, and the Short Lines
came in with large sized protests. 1t
might have been another zero for the
Short Line in its half had Myrkle, in
center field, not muffed an easy fly
from Kidder, which brought Knicker-
booker in and evened up the score.
The next four innings saw not even
a solitary Butte or Short Line player
tickle the home plate for a run. The
Buttes succeeded in getting four hits
off Kidder during these innings, and
one of them was a lovely two-bagger
by Huber to the center field, but the
Short Line pitcher was in his best
mood and struck out seven ambitious
Butte without half trying. Neither
We're there any signs of slow playing,
both in the in and outfields.
Griggs was right there every time
ball came to his stamping ground, and
scooped up a fly from Moran in the
fifth which brought forth a howl from
the denizens of the bleachers. There
was short stop over5this play while
Captain Moran gave vent to his opin-

and offered to resign his job, but his

POSITIVE ORDERS GIVEN
Reported That w. A. Clark Will
Build at Once.
TENANTS ARE NOTIFIED
Occupants OF the Shacks Told They
Must Leave at Once-Orders Have
Several Times Been
Mod fl 3D.

Builders and contractors generally
were feeling some what encouraged yes
terday over the report that the decis-
ION has been reached to go ahead with
the much talked of seven-story block
to be erected by w. A. Clark on West
Park street. What leads to the belief
that the building will actually be erect
ed after all is the fact that the tenants
occupying the row of shacks where
it is proposed to put up the new block
have received positive orders to va
cate at once.
When it was first announced last
September that Mr.. Clark would put
up an elegant block on this site no
tices were given the occupants of the
shacks to move out on Jan. /. Subse-
quently this order was modified and the
tenants were granted permission to re-
main until April ]. Later they were
notified that the tearing down of the
frame shacks would begin on May l,
and that all occupants must be out
OF the way by that time, but again the
time was extended. The orders now
given, however, are positive, and it
further extension. Accordingly, all the
occupants are preparing to move out
on June l. There are seven or eight
one-story frame shacks on the site of
which it is proposed to erect the big
block. These shacks are at present
occupied by the Vendome cafe, the
oxford market, Mullins market, the
Washington market, the Butte Opti-
cal company, Towle & Winterhalter,
Mullins fruit store, the City market
and E. F. Mayors jewelry store OF
these the Vendome cafe and the Butte
Optical company have already moved.
There was also report yesterday
that a three-story brick block would
be erected on the north side of West
Park street directly opposite the pro-
posed Clark block. There are three
one-story frame shacks here, occupied
by the Cheuuamegon cafe. the Elite
saloon and the Central secondhand
store.

THE BURLINGTON PLANS
Belief That 1t Has a Transconti-
mental Project.
SURVEYS ARE BEING MADE
A Route Down the Columbia Is Under
Consideration - Eastern Capital
Back OF the Scheme-After
Telegraph Lines.

Despite denials by Vice President
Harris and other officials, indica ations
point to Burlington plans that when
completed will give it transcontinen-
tai line of its own. The belief is becom-
ing quite general that before long the
Burlington will SHOW its hand in trans
continental projects. In fact confiden-
tial letters have been seen by persons
that afterward spoke about them that
amply justify this belief says a dis
patch from Wall street. This year
would be bad time to build very much
because of the high prices of material
scarcity of labor and for other reasons,
but the Burlington plans may be suffi
GENTLY developed this year so that ac-
tual construction can be begun the be-
ginning of next season. Meantime the
Burlington traffic arrangement with
the Northern Pacific at Billings is as
satisfactory as anything Of the kind it
could get Even Northern Pacific peo-
pie are inclined to believe that the day
is drawing near when the Burlington
will branch out for itself. In this con-
HGcliUH IL 10 " liotS lii'tt
surveys have been made down the Co.
lumbia. Unless these surveys are being
made for speculative purposes one of
the largest western roads is behind
them, and this road is almost certain
to be the Burlington. With the pro-
iected Columbia river valley road and
short length between Billings and
Walulla, the Burlington transconti-
mental line will be materialized. 1t is
known that neither the Northern Paci-
tic nor Great Northern has anything to
do with this project, and the Burlington
is the only other large road that could
have anything particular to gain by it,
and itNwould have very much to gain
as a transcontinental proposition. The
promoters nicely say that it will be
built by eastern capital, and although
it cannot be positively proven it is a
reasonable assumption that this capital
represents or is allied with Burlington
interests.
The Great Northern road it is said,
is trying to obtain control of the West
ern Union telegraph lines which cover
its system from end to end.
Evidence bearing on the matter is he
ing gradually collected in the form of
dispositions. and the case will probably
be argued at the next term of the Un-
tied States court in st. Paul. 1t will
be the biggest railroad suit ever trisd
in the northwest.
In brief, the claim made by the Great
Northern is that it has the right to
buy the Western Union lines on it's
system for their intrinsic value because
the original contract, with the road un-
der which the telegraph lines We're op"r-
ated has now expired. 1t is a most in
teresting case, not only from the stand

made very pretty catch for Cleve-
land in right, which he made extra good
on long throw to the plate, cutting
off Walters chance for run. In the
sixth a pretty double play by Gala
CHER Perham and Moran caught the
fancy of the crowd.
The seventh was remarkab bic from
the fact that Perham lifted the leather
over the right field fence with the ease
he would display in batting flies al a
practice game. A home run resulted,
and Perham was awarded the ovation
of the day. This changed the score
making it to l in favor of Butte,
which was the situation when the rail-
readers came to bat in the eighth.
This was the sensational inning, mas
much as the Buttes became a bit rat
tied and allowed their opponents to get
in five runs.
A long fly from Kidder was mis-
judged by Myrkle. and he didn't get
within five feet of it. This seemed to
start things going, and the bases were
soon filled. The home boys touched
up McDonough for four hits in this
round, one being a double by Shannon
to center field. When Waller sent his
extended fly to left and brought Kid
der in, tying the score, things waXed
warm indeed, but when Miller came
in on a grounder from Margetts, which
slipped through Morans fingers mys-
teriously, the bleachers howled long,
glad howl.
The rejoicing was even more pro-
longed when Shannon's two-base hit
sent Waller in. Moran saw things go
ing fast from him and was nightly
mixed in his ideas, for he speedily
muffed a throw from center field and
allowed Margetts and Taylor to do the
drop act at home. The Short Lines
had run up a total Of six runs, as
against two for their opponents, and
the game was over 1t was an inter-
esting contest throughout.
The summary follows:

A new TRIAL FOR NEARY
A Notice of the Intention Has
Been Given.
AN ERROR IN DECISIONS
On Points of Law Are Alleged by His
Attorneys-Misdirecte the Jury.
Verdict Contrary to the
Evidence.

A notice of intention to move for a
new trial for James j. Neary, who was
convicted of manslaughter for the muir
der of Alexander Murray, was given
yesterday. 1t is alleged that the court
misdirected the jury in matter of
law and erred in its decision of certain
questions of law arising during the
trial; that the verdict was contrary to
law and contrary to the evidence, and
is not supported by the evidence in the
case. 1t is also claimed that new evil
dence, material to the defendant, has
been discovered and which could not
with reasonable diligence have been
produced at the trial.
Charles W. Mosher. defendant in
suit for divorce brought in the district
court by Annie Mosher yesterday filed
an answer and cross complaint charging
desertion. He admits that he is not
living with his wife at present but
denies that he lives separate and apart
from her without her wish or consent,
and denies that ne has since the 18th
of last September lived with another
woman. In his cross bill Mosher says
they were married at Gen. Idaho, on
Sept. 16, 1891, and that he has always
been a kind and considerate husband
to the defendant. and provided her
with all the necessaries and comforts
of life up to Oct. l. 1897, when she re-
fused to longer accept them from him,
and left him.
The executor of the James Tuohy es
tate has again petitioned the court for
authority to lease the Burke and Bal
aklava mining claims to Silas F. King,
He relates in his petition that he had
previously asked for leave to lease the
property to John Britt, c. j. McSherry
and d. j. Ryan, upon their offer to
give the estate a $500 bonus and Ger
tain royalties, and to do a certain
amount of development work, and an
order was consequently made by the
court requiring a bond of $4,000. Britt
put up the bond and $500 bonus, and
subsequently withdrew both, and King
offered the executor $1,000 as a bonus
and the executor states to the court
that McSherry and Ryan are not re-
sponsible men and he wishes to give
the lease to King. The executor says
he is compelled to defend important
actions in the district court for the
estate and has no funds with which to
pay the expenses, and therefore needs
the bonus offered by King and the reve-
nues that will be derived from the
property if leased to him.

The story that the Northern Pacific
intends to at once place two new steam
ships in service to accommodate its in
creased Asiatic trade, and which has
been denied by the Northern Pacific Of
ficials, needs some explanation. The
Northern Pacific has always claimed
that it had no interest in an Oriental
line, and while there is room TO 6Curt
this statement, it is technically true.
The line which operates in connection
with the Northern Pacific is the Dod-
we'll As.atic Steamship company of Lon
don. President Dodwell. who was in
this country recently and made a trip
to the Pacific coast, declared just prior
to his departure, that he intended to at
once place two additional large ships
in the service, which he intended to buy
in England. Authoritative information
asserts that two such vessels have been
obtained. They will if they have not
already done co, leave England with
cargo for China, thence coming to
Puget sound on their maiden trips, So
the story of the Northern Pacific Off
cials that they are not going to put new
steamers in service may be regarded as
another diplomatic evasion.
