at least 1t is understood, has not re-
ceived the offer favorably 1t would
appear that Shafer recognizes that his
case is desperate one. AT the former
trial all his evidence went to prove
a case of self-defense, but it after
wards developed that all the testi-
mony on that point was perjured and
now with that evidence out of the case,
shafer is left in very bad position.
apparently little preparation has been
made for the trial by the defense, as
no subpoenas have been given to the
sheriff by Shafer's attorneys Eva

have to offer at his second trial. Sew
eral of the states witnesses ere also
missing, having left the state or the
county, but none of them are of par
tlcular Importance or necessary in or

the sheriff yesterday made his re-
turn on the subpoenas issued by the
prosecution and reported that he could

INJURED lNTERNALtY..
Arthur Johns, the Miner, Is Not Expected
. J. IN Tiyo '~ - +t&aS1


Arthur Johns, the miner who was so
seriously injured in the Rarus mine ac-
cldent Wednesday,, was in avery criti-
cal condition all of yesterday and at
midnight was expected toedie at almost
any moment. It was stated it was
hardly within the range of possibilities
that he could live till morning. 1t de-
ve1oped beyond a doubt at an early
hour yesterday morning, as had been
expected would be the case, that the
unfortunate miner was injured inter-
nally and that the broken leg and ex-
tefnaI Injuries were of far less moment
than the injuries his internal organs
had sustained Early in the day he
commenced to sink and all hope of his
recovery was Abandoned
. Joseph Tetrault who was working as
Johns partner, was also quite severely
I injured in the accident. The two men
were engaged in retimbering a place on
the 400 level where a fall of ground
had displaced the set a few days be-
fore. when Unexpectedly another fall
came, carrying the timbers over on top
of them. Tetrault was in a more pro-
tected position than Johns and was not
seriously hurt, while Johns received
nearly the full weight of the fallen
ground and timbers and had the life
nearly crushed out of him. He was SO
badly injured that the hospital sur
geons did not believe from the first he
could possibly live. He fingered
through yesterday, failing steadily and
being large part of the time in a COM
atose condition.
Tetrault was taken to his home 542
East Galena street, and was attended
by Dr. Freund. He was much bruised
about the head and back and will be
laid up for some time, but his condi-
ton is not regarded as in any way dan
gerous.
Johns died this morning. Coroner
Julien was notified and will hold an
inquest to investigate the accident
which caused his DEATH

PREFERRED CREDITORS
Got Most of Bartlett's Assets Before He
Filed His Petition


Filed His Petition.
A new wrinkle in bankruptcy pro-
ceedings was made yesterday by Fred
A. Bartlett, who has been conducting
a gentlemen,s furnishing and clothing
mouse on the street floor Of the Lizzie
block at the corner of Park and Main.
Last Saturday he sold out to Ras
Rochester for cash consideration of
$6,S44 Yesterday he filed in the United
States court a petition asking to be ad-
judged a bankrupt. Last night, before
Referee Campbell of that court he
swore that his debts footed up $5,741.9S
and that his assets were composed OF
book accounts amounting to the grand
total of s16S.s0 That is regarded as
bankruptcy with a vengeance. The
principal creditors are H. w. King &
q Co, San Francisco, $300.25; Kahn
Bros. & Co, Chicago, s4343O San Jose

Butte. 5000. There are several creditors
IN Butte holding, claims against the
bankrupt, among whom was the First
National bank, which, according to
Bartletts statement, was preferred
creditor, and has been satisfied. The
bankrupt also testified that his wife
had during the last 20 months advanc-
ca iIoHey 10 the concern amounting to
about $4,000, and this amount, too, ac-
cording to the testimony, has been paid
His attorney, Mr.. Coombs, has been
paid SIT ION account" and that is the
sum total of the creditors who have
been satisfied.
1t is case which promises to open
up long train of litigation in the
courts. 1t Is more than probable that
the referee will conclude not to ad-
Judicate the matter at all. Referee
Campbell asked Mr.. Bartletts
Were these transactions with
Rochester, the bank and your wife
made in anticipation of filing this petit
ton IN the United States court?' ~

ors in preference to the others. l have

and only two responded, and they had
nothing to say after they heard the
bankrupt give it out that there was

We Were Too Easy.

J. 7. Schain personally appeared
before the secretary of the state rail.
road commission last week and pre-
sented the petition of citizens of this
city which prays that immediate
action be taken to improve the train
service on the Browns Valley branch.
Mr., Schain says he was cordially
rece ved and assured by the secretary
that the matter would Investigated
at once. The secretary further
stated that Gen, Becker had sug-
gested on a number of occasions that
the condition of the service on this
road was in a deplorable state, but
the company replied that as long as
the people had made no formal pro-
tests they no doubt were we'll enough
satisfied. It will thus be seen that
because of our meekness and quiet
submission we have been getting the
worst of it for number of years. 1t
is said that all things come to those
who wait but not so in dealing with
railroad companies as nothing comes
to those who do not kick. In discuss.
ing the matter in general way Mr..
Schain gave it as his opinion that in
as much as this was such elearly one
sided case, the railroad company
would greatly consent to greatly IN
prove the service without awaiting
the formality of a hearing by the
Inter Lake Tribune,
