MURRAY AGAINST THE
HOME INVESTMENT CO

James A. Murray instituted suit today
against the Home Investment and Realty
company, Montana Loan and Realty Co.,
N. Il. Hotter and N. j. Gould as trustees
to enforce the sale Of the mineral rights
of the Railroad lode claim and the distri-
button of the proceeds among the own
ers OF the property. He alleges that a pa
tent to the claim was issued to him on
the 2Sth of March 1891, but since then he
has sold a half interest to the two defend
ant companies. He maintains that the
interests of all would be best subserved if
tne property were sold n the proceeds
divided. Messrs. Gould and Hotter are
made parties to the action because they
have a lien on the interest Of the Mon
tana Loan and Realty ompan and are
judgment creditors.
A similar suit with the same object in
view and involving the same property
was also commenced by Mr.. Murray, but

ual defendants the city of Butte is made

STANDARD DlSTORTS
REPORT OF THE
BLACK PLACER CASE,

In an interview with a reporter of the
Inter Mountain, Frank w. Haskins, one
of the attorneys for the plaintiff in, the
company against Gen. Charles S. War
ren, to reform the deed to the Black
Placer, takes exception to the account of
he proceedings published in yesterday
mornings Standard. He says the facts
were distorted in the publication, he be-
lieves. purposely, and states that the ar
ticle was untrue and misleading in
nearly every particular.
1.-The property involved is what is
known as the Black Placer claim. In
1898 the complaint states that the de-
PENDANTS, General Charles S. Warren,
Matte A. Warren and Lee Mantle deed
ed a lot of property to the Home Invest
ment and Realty p At that time
1t was supposed that the Black Placer
claim was included in the deed. but
through a mistake the same was left
out, and until about the year 1899 the
error was not discovered, and then only
by a suit being brought against General
Warren by Cans & Klein and others, in
which his piece of property was at
tached. The officers of the company, in
looking up that deed. discovered that
this piece of property had been omitted
and Immediately began suit to have the
deed reformed n amended so as to in
clude this piece of property. There was
never any understanding with Mr.. Mat
tison that the defendants would appear
with out service of summons. and after
waiting nearly a year We finally succeed
ed in getting service on General Warren.
Shortly afterwards a vas filed
and the muir set for hearing, n it
was not until the demurrer had been dis
missed for of prosecution and de-
ault entered and one of the attorneys
for Mr.. Warren had filed a motion to set
aside the default and asked Mr.. Roote
to permit the matter to go over until Mr..
Mattison's return. that we discovered
that Mr.. Mattison was out of town. and
the motion to set aside the default is
now pending. The suit pending simply
affects the Black Placer mining claim
and no other property. In drawing the
complaint the attorneys for the company
simply set out at length the property
contained in the deed which we wished
to rave reformed, which is usually the
practice in such matters. There were. no
unusual or extraordinary measures
adopted by the plaintiff or anyone else

Will experience some difficulty in secur-
ing men to take the census of Silver Bow
county said Governor Richards this
morning. Il nave received about 80 ap-
plications. and some of the applicants
are incompetent to do the work. I will
need many more. and for this dearth of
unemployed President Mckinley and his
administration is responsible."
However, the governor did not appear
to be very much incensed at the man
who had brought about this condition of
affairs.
The United States census office, from
which the enumeration of the inhabi-
tants of the state of Montana will be di-
rected, has been established at % West
Granite street, upstairs, and immedi-
ately opposite the Inter Mountain build
ing. Here the red tape which hedges
about governmental ttic will be pa
tiently unrolled during the summer
months that are coming, and with the
unrolling the noses Of the people of Mon
tana will be counted.
Governor Richards has received a tele-
gram from Director Merriam, impera-
lively demanding that the list Of men APP
pointed by the governor as census emu
orators be forwarded to Washington for
confirmation, and the supervisor for
Montana inc himself in a dilemma. He
is short of applicants, and many of the
applicants who have applied are not
competent to do the work. When an APP
plication for the position is made the
applicant is required to fill out a test
schedule. This schedule is quite elabo-
rate. The schedule, together with the
application. is forwarded to Washington,
and if, in the Judgment Of the officials
there, based upon the clerkly appear
ance Of the test schedule. the applicant
is capable, the appointment is confirmed.
All the errors or the schedule are
checked off in red ink. The Inter Noun
returned yesterday. There were nearly
200 red check marks on it, and it is un-
~ess to say that the applicant who
filled out this schedule will be disap-
pointed.
The rate Of compensation has been
fixed for the Butte district at 2 cents
per capita, and at S cents for a death
recorded. The compensation for the
state has also been fixed, but it is not
satisfactory to the governor, n he is
~endeavoring to arrange for a schedule
| which will result in more pay for the
outside enumerators.
