Title was discharged yesterday morning
in Judge Devine's court
The woman was charged with having
given false testimony in the Santi MUIR
der case. At the trial in the district
court she testified that at the time of
the murder, she had seen man standing
in the alley. This man had put his hand
to his hip pocket and had taken there from
a bright object. At the coroners inquest
she had not mentioned a word about this
affair, and the authorities, believing that
she had lied at the trial. arrested her and
charged her with perjury.
After her arrest Tille Carr explained
the whole matter by saying that at the
time of the coroner's inquest she was
so excited that she did not know what
she was saying. She said she was agi-
tated and did not remember having seen
man with a gun in the alley.
When the case was called yesterday
morning at 10 o'clock in Judge Devines
court, County Attorney Duffy asked the
court that the case be dismissed as the
evidence was insufficient. Thereupon Til
lie Carr was discharged.

CASE IS A UNIQUE ONE
Instituted to Compel Payment
for a.. Child's Support.
STATE is THE PLAINTIFF
And the Defendant Is the Alleged Father
of an Legitimate Infant Born
in Michigan Last
Year.

When Deputy Sheriff J. j. Walsh
served a summons on Neils Nelson
last night, the first step was taken in
a case of a character rarely seen in the
courts of Montana. 1t is a bastardy
case, instituted for the purpose of COM
polling the alleged father of an illegiti-
mate child to maintain that child and
prevent it becoming charge on the
county.
Early last fall there appeared in Ana
conda. a poor young Swedish girl hav-
ing with her an infant whose father,
she asserted, was Nelson. AT that
time he was working at the converter.
The girls story was that months pre-
vious, when both she and Nelson had
been living back in Michigan, Nelson
wrought her ruin. He left that state
and came to Montana. Then her child
was born. and trusting to be able to
wiring from Nelson enough to support
the infant. she had followed him here,
but had been disappointed, Nelson re-
fusing to acknowledge the child.
Then the girl laid the matter before
County Attorney Duffy, who started to
institute bastardy proceedings, but be-
for he could accomplish anything Neil
pears, to Idaho.
About a month ago Nelson returned
and went to work in the converter.
Recently County Attorney Duffy
learned of his presence here and last
night had him served with the sum
mons in the case.
Cases of this character are in class
apart. They are neither civil nor
criminal. but quasi criminal. The
action is brought in the name of
The state as plaintiff against
the alleged father of an illegitimate
child, to compel him to pay for the
child's maintenance. If the defendant
obeys the summons he appears in court
and enters a plea of guilty or not
guilty to the charge of being the child's
father. If it is decided he is the man
responsible for the birth of the child,
he is required to file bond for the
maintenance of the child the court fix
ing the amount of that bond in his
discretion If the bond is not given
the defendant is committed to Jail. If
he has any property judgment on be-
half of the state is taken at once
against it, such a Judgment being a
first lien.
There is no process provided for the
detention of the defendant on the in
stitution of the action. He is simply
served with a summons as in civil
case, and is free to leave the country
rather than appear AT the last ses-
sion of the legislature an attempt was
made to remedy this defect in the law
by an amendment providing for the
arrest of the defendant, but allowing
him to be released on bonds. The bill
never came up for final passage.
Nelson. it is understood has nc
property in this state.

Chief White and Officer Bosanitz had
an exciting experience last evening at
the corner of Third and Chestnut

who had broken a glass in the old

window had thrown rock which went
through the large plate glass, valued at
$40.
The officers caught one boy whom
they believed knew who the guilty
parties We're, but he refused to divulge
the names, saying that he did not know
who it was. The boy was allowed to go.

THE GILMORE PARTY.
Ten of Them, mt Least, Prisoners at
Insurgent Quarters.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-The following
cablegram has been received from Admi-
raj Dewey:
Manila, April So.-secretary of Navy,
Washington: Apparently reliable infor-
nation that ten OF the Yorktown boat
crew, including Gilmore, are prisoners at
insurgent headquarters. Am continuing
investigation.
(Signed DEW Ei'
Inasmuch as there were fifteen MEM
bers Of the Yorktown party captured, by
the Filipinos at Baler, and Admiral
Dewey accounts for only ten OF them, IL
is feared that the other five have been
killed They were probably killed or IA
tally wounded in the original assault
upon the landing party at Baler.
The identity of the members of the
party still unaccounted for is not known.
A telegram was sent to Admiral Dewey
to-day. asking him to give the depart
ment If possible, the names of the men
known to be in the hands of the Fill
pinos.
1t is accepted at the department that
the reason he has not already furnished
these names. with the exception Of that
OF Lieutenant Gilmore, in his dispatch OF
yesterdays date, is that he hasn't the
information. The insurgent headquarters,
where Admiral Dewey says the men are
held prisoners, is supposed to be San
Fernando, but there is no assurance on
that point

state Convention on Lynching.

ATLANTA, GA. May IA State con-
vention, which shall have for it's mission
the discussion of felonious assaults upon
women and lynching, and whose object
shall be 10 find a remedy Tor existing
conditions, will probably be called to meet
In Atlanta as soon as delegates can be
selected from the various counties of the
State.
This movement, at first coming only as
a suggestion, has found sufficient back
ing and sentiment to cause II to assume
the proportions necessary for its sue
cess, and it is said there is no doubt that
the convention will be held. and that
every county in the State will be repre-
sented in the discussion Of recent lylch-
ings. The convention will not meet for
the purpose of condoning the crime or
censurng the work OF outraged citizens
who deal out summary punishment TO the
assailant, but its purpose will be TO sug-
gest such changes In the present law as
to make II possible for indictment. trial,
and execution of the guilty TO follow In
such rapid succession the execution Of
the crime as 10 make it impossible for
any delay to swell the indignation of the
people to that point of frenzy which
generates violence and death to the man
who IS responsible for the crime. Judge
George Hilyer, a prominent lawyer and
large property-owner, Is taking an active
part in the matter.
