SITUATION UNCHANGED.
Telephone Strike Still Unsettled-A
Union Statement.

There were no developments whatever
today in the telephone strike.
MI. Gitt, representing the union and
speaking for the strikers, says that
should the union concede what the COM
pan asks-the right to pass upon the
qualifications of all employes-it would
mean the revoking of the charter to the
grand president. The company, he as
serts. is endeavoring simply to destroy
the union in Butte. The talk of forcing
out all union men in it's employ in four
states is idle. because it only employs
union men in Montana and they are near
ly a, in Butte. The union, says Mr. GIFT,
who is authorized to speak for it, is will
sing at any time to meet the company halt
way and settle the differences on any
basis that will be fair to both sides.

they had commenced to make it inter-

gone up to the mine and one of them

fixed, he, too, had started, with his back
towards the approaching Mcclure and
he had not stopped until the county court

Thomas SeaJton Is in the county Jail
with a charge of assault IN the third de-
gree against him.. His arrest occurred
last evening at b request of Ida VIII
SOP, who conducts a cigar store in South
Wy0mtn street. The warrant was issued
by Justice Nichols and was based Upon
a complaint drawn UP by the county at
torney. The woman told the latter that
on Saturday evening Seaton had given
her a smash in h face. After Seatorl

Justice. who liked his bond at SPOOL He
W. he could get the bond and; the
justice detailed Constable Rhoades to ac-
company him in search of one SeatOn

they met "Scotty" Orr. an ex-member of
the fire department. Sd
Hello, you big - -!"aaaid
Seaton, as he caught sight of Scotty.s
The remark struck an unpopular chord
in the mind of "Scotty'' and before Con-
stable Rhoades knew it Seaton was all
doubled up on the floor and Scotty was
dancing a rack lack around his pros
trate form. When Seaton recovered suf-
fciently to walk he was aiken to the
county jail. "0..

Service declined to make any detailed ex-
planation Of the method by which bogus
money was made with the captured coun-
terfeiIing tools No reason was given why
the manufacture OF spurious coins should
not be exploited, and the incident passed
unnoticed. 1t was. however, one Of the
extraordinary precautions which are taken
TO prevent this particular crime, and in
this connection Burns told this story:
Some years ago a couuterfeiting trial
was in progress IN Kentucky. The eyi-
dence against the prisoner was largely tho
crucible, ladies' and molds which have
been used in the manufacture of bad dol
lars And in order 10 emphasize its value
in proving the prisoners guilt Secre.
Service officer, in detailed way, told OF
the easy process OF counterfeiting
Among the jurymen was one who had lis
tened intently to every bit of evidence.
When the Secret Service man was on the
stand this juror, who was known as con-
scientious citizen, was so impressed with
what he saw that. although previously in
doubt, he was convinced of the prisoners
guilt
TWO months later the juror was tried In
the same court for a similar offence. he
! had been induced TO counterfeit from the
very simplicity with which it could be done,
and had been caught before he had made
$40.
There is another case precisely the same
on record in Missouri. and for these rea-
sons the Secret Service men are reluctant

motive is gain, but there is often an un-

lie knows little, is the most remarkable.
| Counterfeping was adopted as a means to
overthrow the little Central American Re-
public and set up a revolutionary govern
ment. The conspiracy ripened in New York
in 1896.
The promoters of the scheme were Gen.
Fredericka Mora, the head of the revo-
Iutionists, and who, after serving two
years in Sing Sing, is said TO be in
Nicaragua; Ricardo Requesns, a wealthy
Spaniard, and a handsome and wealthy
