MANY RUMORS
There have been countless rumors foat-
ing around to the effect that silver is to
be entirely discarded, and that as far
as Missouri is concerned. Bryan Is TO be
shelved In favor of William j. stone, of
Missouri. This Mr.. Stone positively de-
MED to-day, saying that he would so into
the next convention to work for Bryan,
and that the Missouri delegation would
vote solidly for Mr.. Bryan's nomination.
If the conference should be resolved into
a formal meeting Of the National
Committee tomorrow. it is probable that
the designations of Messrs. Teller and
Allen from the Ways and Means Commit
tee will be accepted. Both are willing to
get out. and the other members Of the
National Committee are willing that they
should.
CHAIRMAN JONES TO RESIGN?
1t is also reported that Chairman Jones,
of the National Committee, will resign,
but this is not confirmed.
The antitrust banquet tomorrow night,
promises to- be most successful affair.
Among the speakers will be Hon. w.
J. Bryan. who will discuss "Monopolies'
Hon. d. ID. DeArmond. who will speak on

The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1899-09-10

James Ryan filed an affidavit with
the clerk of the district court in
which he charges the First National
bank with Withholding certain moneys
which had been garnisheed by him. He
represents that he holds a deficiency
judgment against Michael Reagan for
$15795, and becoming aware that Rea-
gan had money on deposit in the bank
he had a garnishment notice served
by the sheriff. Ryan alleges that the
bank refuses to turn over to the sheriff
sufficient money to satisfy the iudg-
ment, although it has in it's vaults $500
of Reagan's money. Judge Clancy
made an order directing an examina-
ton of the banks books to ascertain
whether or not Reagan has money on
deposit there.

HARRINGTON IN REPLY
Denies That Property Is Illegally
Withheld.
IN THE CALLAHAN CASE
He Asserts That the Property Was That
OF the Judgment Deterioration
for the Probate OF the Will
OF Samuel H. Stuart.

Constable P. J. Harrington. who does
the constable business in Justice Har-
rington's court, has filed his answer in
the replevin and damage suit brought
against him by Monica Frey Callahan
as one of the side lights in the litiga-
ton between herself and Colonel Gala
han. 1t will be remembered Colonel
Callahan disposed of certain of his Of
fee furniture to George Lander to Civ
ing a note for $50, upon which Lander
sued and obtained default, taking pos
session of the property. Following this
action the attorneys of Mrs. Callahan
filed a motion in Justice Harrington's
court for the setting aside of the judg-
ment on the ground that it was OBJ
tanned by fraud and collision between
Colonel Callahan, his counsel and Lam
der, some rather sensational affidavits
being filed in the matter. The motion
was denied and then followed the suit
against Constable Harrington.
The defendant answering denies that
the goods were worth $3.50 or more than
s25, and denies that he wrongfully or
unlawfully wfthholds the property. He
further alleges that at the time men
tioend in the complaint he was a duly
elected, qualified and acting constable
in and for Silver Bow county; that on
July 27, 1899, a judgment was duly en-
tered in Justice Harrington's court in
favor of George S. Lander against EN-
met Callahan for $50 and for $3.50 costs
that a writ of execution issued and the
defendant, on July 2S, was called upon
to levy on and take possession of the
property involved. He asserts that the
property was the property of the judg-
ment debtor and not the property of
Monica Frey Callahan, and asks that
the case be dismissed and that he be al
lowed his costs.
A petition for the probate of the will
Of Samuel H. Stuart the old-time mill
man who died recently at Walkerville.
was filed with the clerk of the district
court yesterday by Lucena S. Wads-
worth. a daughter of the deceased, who
resides in Boston, and who is named as
executrix in the will The estate con-
ssts of real and personal property to
the value of $4,S65.S4 and a judgment
against the Singer Sewing Machine
company with $6040 costs. The devisees
are William L.. Stuart. a son, residing
at Whitehall. who is bequeathed $500:
Ida Stuart, who received a like amount,
and the daughter, Lucena S. Wads-
worth, to whom the residue goes. The
judgment against the Singer Sewing
Machine company was obtained in the
district court fort injuries sustained in
a runaway accident over two years
ago. The Judgment was rendered short
ly before the death of Mr.. Stuart after
a long legal contest. Singularly, the
Judgment was tsigned on the day Mr.
Stuart died.

Billings baseball game was not played
yesterday, nor will there be any game

to-day for the mounted sword and
