DITION OF MISSES DOWNEY
AND ODONNELL.

At $50 O'Clock this afternoon no new
cases of smallpox had been reported to
either the city or county health autloci-
ties.
A report was current on the street last
night to the effect that Miss Gertrude
O'Donnell and Miss DoWney, the Wax
erville smallpox patients, had sue
cumbed to the disease. There was abso-
lutely no truth in the reports. DR.. Moi-
roe visited both young aides this morn
ing. Miss Downey is very low. but her
condition is somewhat better than it Was
yesterday. Miss O'D0nnells condition is
quite critical, but she viii probably re-

Many who came to the schools without
certificates were sent home. Several
school teachers who had no certificates
suffered the same fate. 1t is needless 20

Found Dead in His Bed This
Morning.
NOT A CASE OF SUICIDE
As Was at First Reporte0--Taken Ill
Of TonsiiitiS Yesterday
Morning

Hercules ~Tregonnin, a we'll known resi-
dent of the city, was found dead in his
bed in room 26 of the Mantle building
about $3.50 o'clock this morning. At first
tker report was current on the streets that
he had committed suicide. but the exam
nation of the body by a physician put
a quietus on this story.
The startling discovery was made by
William Burland, Tregonnin's roommate
and friend. Yesterday morning Tregon-
min become i'll of tonsilitis. The attack
was a severe one and necessitated the
services of a physician. Last night he
was somewhat improved and was appar-
emily in excellent spirits. Mr.. Burland
spent the greater portion OF the night
with him. About 4 o'clock this morning
%11egonnin told Burland thai he was rest
ing easy and advised him to so to bed.
Burland demurred, but the sick man in
sisted, and finally urlan bade Tregon-
min good night and departed.
AS soon as he arose this morning,
about $3.50, Burland went to Tregonnin S
room to ascertain his condition. He
found his friend lying across the bed
face downward, With his head hanging
over the side OF The bed. He called 10
him but received no answer When he
attempted to arouse him he found he was
dead. The body was warm and thinking
it possible that something might b. done
Burland sent for DIR. Bernheim, who
came and after an examination told Bur-
land nothing could be done. He stated
thai T~regonnin had died either from
stfansulation in being unable to control
the matter rising in his throat, or had
burst a blood vessel in his head while
vomiting. The doctor considered it ad-
Nisabie to notify Coroner Julien, who will
probably hold an inquest Monday.
Tregonnin was about 40 years of age
and had resided in Butte about 10 wears.
He had a large circle of friends and ac-
quaintances in the city, and at the time
OF mis- death Was operating a lease on
the Ophir mine With Magur, Andrews and

The attorney general desired to know

would present that he might
fci'tify himself. Mr.. Day said that a for
mai motion would be filed with the at

The attorney general said he had a num-
Der of witnesses that he a intended to
examine relative to the transfers of prop
erty in which certain members of the

intended to examine but under the courts
ruling of course he could not and desired
TO know if they might be excused. He
said he had evidence to show a change
in Senator Geiger's financial condition
after he voted for Clark. He would, how
ever, dispense with the proof.
The court thought he had better make
his offer, that the evidence might be
heard later if the court desired it. Well

bought property in Libby to The value of
$500 from the Libby Townsite company,
and is now engaged in putting up in
Libby a building mat in the aggregate
will cost $4,000 or 81. 900. He admitted that
the proof would not show any
of money on the building except that a
contract had been made to pay it. He
would also show that Geiger in May last
bought. Il draft from the Union Bank &
Trust company of this city for which he
paid abot9t 81. 500. One of the bills used in
payment was Il $500 bill. Welcomes
counsel objected to the offer.
The attorney general said he would also
make an offer of proof as to Senator Hob
sons financial condition before and after
he voted for Clark. He would show that
a large block of stock in the bank of Fer
gus county of which Hobson is presi-
dent was owned by T.. c. Power; tina
A. {. j Johnson desired Hobson to purchase
