lUCEY HANGED.
Special to the Bee.


Butte, Sept. IA. 1925 p. m.-
Daniel Lucey was hanged at
I'LL a. m. in the court house
yard for the murder of Patrick
L. Reagan. The execution was
a great success Lucey's neck
was broken and he was dead in
five minutes. He made a brief
statement before the moose was
adjusted; saying his conviction
had been brought about by the
Anaconda Standard and County
Attorney Connolly. He did not
deny his guilt and did not
mention the murder, but said
he forgave everybody and asked
to be forgiven. About two
hundred witnessed the execu-
ton. The murder for which
Lucey was hanged was one Of
the most cold blooded in the
history Of the state. He lured
his victim to a lonely canyon Of
Silver Bow county and beat
his brains out with rock. His
motive was robbery. He be
lieved Reagan had money and
endeavored to secure it. The
murder was committed Sept. 2,
1898. Lucey was to have been
married Sept. 5, Labor Day, to
Miss Maggie Gallagher.

THE RISE OF PULLMAN.
How Montana Boy Is Making Money
Riding Horses.

How Montana Boy Is Making Money
Riding Horses.
Bullman, the Helena boy who has
turned out to be such a crack jockey, is
doing great riding in the east. Many
patrons of the track will remember the
little exercise boy, called Bull Dog" for
short, who worked for different horse
men in Butte and Anaconda three years
ago. He never rode in real race there,
however. He wasn't thought good
enough. He drifted to San Francisco,
got few mounts in the races there and
forced the turf to respect his cool and
fearless riding. In a short time he
could take his pick of the horses he
cared to ride. He paid a visit to his
mother in Helena last winter and pro
vides for the family all the time.
This season he has .been riding for
Whitney, the wealthy New Yorker, and
accepts such outside engagements as
suit him. Last Saturday at Sheepshead
Bay he accepted four mounts, winning
them all. and at such good odds in the
betting that dollar bet on his first win
and the winnings bet on each succeeding
race would have amounted to S47OO-
quite nice sum for start of only one
dollar.
The total amount of the first moneys
captured during the day by Bullman's
mounts was S27.455. The largest win
ming was made by David Garrick in the
Champion stake when he defeated the
great Ethelbert for the $4,000 first
money. Mr.. Lorillard, the owner of
Garrick. handed Bullman two crisp $1,000
bills for the ride and the little Jockey
nearly had heart disease over it. The
owners of the other horses he rode
treated him handsomely, and all told he
did pretty well for the day.
This is the true story of Montana
boy who has kept out of politics and has
never had any transom experiences and
does not bet on horse races.

indianapolis, Sept, 13.-In order to

the union mine workers of America, is
sued today to the public a statement Civ
ing the causes that have led up to the

cate clearly that the Endorsement of the
strike and the issuance of the order has
met with the approval of the miners.
There are a few details to be arranged,
but the men are prepared for the fight.
have not received today any informa-
tion, direct or indirect, to show that the
operators have receded from their posi-
tion.''
indianapolis, Sept. Il. President John
Mitchell states: Great pressure has been
brought to bear to prevent the strike and
have done all possible, but the condi-
tions are such that extreme measures de-
mand action. have been looking for
some concessions from the delegates that
would make the strike unnecessary.
President Mitchell would not state
what secret influence had been at work
to prevent the strike, but said when
men fight for just wages, they can subsist
on very little. At any rate, it is safe to
say that that nobody will starve or want
for the necessary clothing. Most of the
men live in company houses, and we
must consider the probability of evic-
ton, but these things have all been fully
considered. At this time it will be folly
for the organization to go into details as
to the provision made for feeding and
clothing the strikers"

OUR STATUS IN CUBA.
Court--Defendant Sets Up
BROAD Claim.

Washington, Dec 11.-The Nicely ex-
tradition case was argued yesterday
ia the supreme court. All the judges
wele present The argument devel-
oped interesting and important ques.
tons of law with reference to the right
of the United States to extradite flu
gItive criminal in the absence of an ex-
tradition treaty. and especially with
reference to the right of the president
since the ratification of the treaty of
Paris to maintain military form of
government in tine island of Cuba. The
latter feature of the argument made
it the first of the arguments which
bring up for final decision by the SUI
preme court the constitutional rela-
lions between this country and the
territorial acquisitions which it has
gained as a result of the Spanish
American war The Nicely case re-
ferred exclusively to the character of
these relations so far as the island of
Cuba was concerned and thus pre-
sented an independent question from
when the character of these relations
with Porto Rico and the Philippines
will be under consideration.
The defendant sets up the broad
claim that the United States has no
right to be in the island of Cuba, while
the government insists on the right to
sustain treaty obligations.
