prisoner is Grant Murphy. Mr.. Muir

mind. The person who was to receive the
purchase money was present, a MI. Pot
ter. Murphy and Potter left the lawyers
office presumably to have the deed re-
corded and then Murphy would go to the
bank or down in his jeans and produce
the needful.
In an hour or two Mr.. Murphy came
back to the same lawyers office. He had
spent all he had for that ranch, he told
the lawyer, and needed a couple of hun
dred plunks. so, wou the lawyer accept
a mortgage on the ranch for 5000? Why
certainly.
Murphy skipped and for a long time
he was a hard nan to locate. He made
a mistake when he went to Pike county,
Missouri. There are more Missourians
living around Livingston han you can

THAT TRUNK MYSTERY.
Not a Theft, But Merely Mistake of
Transfer Man.

The story of the stolen trunk in yester-
days Inter Mountain needs some expla'-
nation. which was furnished by Mr..
Louis James this morning, the real wner
of the trunk. Hewlett, the song and
and dance had a trunk in the
same room with James. He gave in
structions to the transfer man to get the
trunk and bring it to the depot. Instead
of taking Howlett's trunk, the driver
took the other to the'depot. Hewlett ar
irving soon after, and discovering the
transfer mans error, took immediate
measures to have his own trunk brought
down to the depot and before he could
communicate with James he was on the
train and off for Chicago.
James. discovering the loss of his trunk
and suspecting Hewlett of the theft,
made his suspicious known to Budd, the
stage manager. The latter informed the
police, and thus it is that the matter be-
came of police record. The whole blame
lies on the blunder of the transfer a

cracy was held last evening. Jack Nc

chairman of their county central commit

ference of opinion, it is said, was express
ed as to the a~dvisability of calling a
county convention at this time. Some of
the old time workers in the cause favor
ed some other method of obtaining seats
for their delegates in thee state conven
ton. A portion of those present believ-
ed in forcing the issue at once as it was
a sure shot that their delegation would
be seated in Helena anyway. This sem
timent prevailed and Judge Barrel as the
successor of Jack Mclaughlin was dele
gated to issue a call for a convention to
be held on next Friday.
