HOUTON LANDS A WHALE.
Well-known Butte Man Is Piscatortal
Prodigy.

Displayed in the window Of What
ley's today. as large as life. is noun
tain trout, the like of which residents OK
Butte have not seen in many a day. The
trout is a "whopper" in all respects and
his FURNISHED sides glisten Like the
bronze hull of the yacht Shamrock.
This monster Of the deep was yanked
out Of the waters of the Yellowstone by
Bob Haislop and shipped to Butte,
packed in ice, green buffalo grass, ex-
celsior and sagebrush.
Accompanying the box in which the
trout was packed was the left hind foot
of graveyard rabbit, and the outfit
came through in perfect safety.
Bob HaislOp. or Bob Houton' as he
is more Familiarity known, has estab-
lished high record as a fisherman in
the capture of this big chief Of the
finny tribe
1t is said he broke his collarpone in
the effort Of pulling the trout out OF the
river, but escaped without other serious
injury.
Sometime ago Bob went on a hunting
expedition and brought back SO many
feathers that he nearly tici,ed his
friends to death.
His success at trout fishing leads
many to believe that it will be many
day before a fisherman shows up in this
state who can make Bobs record look
pale around the gills.

here.
Admiral Bunce's death. while sudden,
was not entirely unexpected, as his fam

the removal of the admirals tongue. In

WILL PAY YEoMANRY.
May Induce Discharged Soldiers to Re-
join the Ranks.
(By Associated Press. }

(By Associated PreSS.)
New York, Oct. 19.-Concerning the mil
itary situation, a London correspondent
cables:
The secretary of war has at last been
reused to sense of the obligations which
he is under to see that the men of the
imperial yeomanry who risked their lives
in South Africa shall no longer have their
pay withheld. It is apparent from the
terms and stipulations laid down in the
official announcement from the war Office
that the accounts Of the imperial yeo-
manry have been in an almost hopeless
muddle, owing to the general careless
ness.
The officers have not supplied the war
Office with regular paysheets, and the
officials in Pail Mall have not acknowl-
edged any responsibility in the matter.
Mr.. Brodrick's intimation at the elev-
enth hour that the unpaid yeomanry are
to receive the money due them may pos
sibly have some effect on inducing dis
charged soldiers to rejoin the ranks.

PORTE NEEDS MONEY.
Turkish Ministry Will Ask Trade
Authorizing Loan.
(By Associated Press }

New York, Oct. ia Constantinople
dispatch says that the Turkish finance
minister has reported at a meeting of
the council that the present engage
ments Of the porte make a new loan in
dispensable. The porte will ask for an
trade authorizing the load, the practical
bilfty Of which is questionable.
The action of several Of the ambassa- :
dOrs indicates that the powers are i'm
patient in regard to the condition of the
provinces. The correspondent reports
an interview with a man whose position
gives him a clear view of the Turkish
affair. He says anarchy reigns in Mace
donia, Albania and other provinces. yet
the corruption is SO great that the off,
cials talk of the situation optimistic,,lly.
With the Turkish government, says the
correspondent, personal profit outweighs
all other consideration. The yildiz kiosk
rules everything, the sultan being intol-
Grant of Independent opinion. An apti-
tude for spying Is the quality the sultan
prizes above all others.

ALLEGED MURDERER THE GAME
Search For Hayes, Now Under Arrest,
Was an Exciting One.

Deputy Sheriffs Rowe and PrOebstel,
who went out to Elk Park to look for
Hayes, Wednesday, returned to the city
yesterday.
They were close on the trail of Hayes
Friday afternoon when he was cap
tured by James Williams. Gus Dohl,
Thomas Manion, Walter Blair and Carl
Engstadt, and if Hayes had kept on a
trail he was pursuing couple of hours
before he was taken, he would have run
into their arms.
Deputy Sheriff Rowe, who. with his
fellow officer. walked IA miles in the
forenoon. still searching for Hayes,
whose arrest he had not yet learned of.
yesterday told the interesting story OF
the circumstances surrounding the cap
ture of the accused murderer.
The men who picked up Hayes, and in
cidentally won the reward of $500 offered
by the county commissioners, owe the
description they had Of Hayes to the
officers.
To Look For Hayes.
Rowe and Proebstel stopped at Elk
Grove railroad station with the cap
turers of Hayes on Wednesday night,
and the latter, who are quarrymen EN-
ployed at a quarry there. said they would
look for Hayes. Thursday Rowe and
Proebstel searched Elk Park conyon, and
they found people who had seen Hayes,
and also picked up the shoes he wore out
of Butte and afterward discarded for
shoes he obtained in the canyon.
They brought the shoes to town with
them Yesterday. They talked to a farmer
who gave Hayes cap, and to other
people of the Elk Park country who
fed him. They searched the canyon up
and down yesterday. AT Elk Grove rail-
road station last evening they got news
of Hayes of fresh character.
The section men on the railroad COM
ing into the station for the night at $40
o'clock reported passing a man answer
ing the description of Hayes a mile and
a half out.
Hayes was travelling away from the
station and Butte, toward Basin. Rowe
and Proebstel concluded to head him
off, and they took a freight engine to
Basin that evening.
Asks For Food.
That afternoon Hayes asked a farmer
named Lambert for food, at Lambert's
ranch. two miles this. way from Elk
Park station. Lambert concluded he
was Hayes, and rode down to the quarry
at the station afterward and told the
Quarfymen, VINO armed themselves at
once and went down the track after the
fugitive, having heard the section mems
story.
1t is theorized that Hayes saw the
engine bearing the deputy sheriffs pass
on it's way to Basin, and surmised il
contained some one looking for him. Al
all events he turned back, and for so
doing encountered the party Of quarry
men, who took him into custody. He
made no resistance. but he was unwilling
to return to Butte and had to be forced.
The uuaIrymen think Hayes had a re-
yolver and threw it away into the brush
before he gave up. He refused to come

New York, Oct. ia movement is on

members of the turf, to STOP as far as
possible. the transfer of stable secrets
from trainers to plungers.
1t Is claimed that the cause Of the

owners have seriously considered the
offering of an amendment to the racing
rules this winter which will have for its
object the abolition Of public training
stables. With each owner having his
own trainer, confidence will not be So
readily violated, horseme1f believe.
If this does not prove sufficient, then
an effort will be made to pass a rule
which will provide for punishment for
imparting information concerning the
work and condition of horse to an out
slider without the owners consent.

Comes in Voluntarily.
(By Associated Press.)


New York. Oct. 19.-George Armitage,
the missing messenger Of the bank of
New Amsterdam. walked into the Ten
derloin police station today and gave
himself up. The detectives tried to get
him to make a statement. but he declined
to discuss his case. Armitage only had
$31.40 on him when arrested. When he
disappeared drafts and collections rep
resenting thousands of dollars were re-
turned to the bank by a mysterious col
ored woman who has not yet been found
by the police.
Armitages accounts, according to the
bank officials, show a shortage of $500,
Of which sum 5000 is covered by fidel-
ity bond.
Armitage subsequently made a re-
markable confession which set the police
ecurrying after four accomplices
who. 1t is alleged. had in turn
robbed the dishonest messenger Of
practically all the money he
had stolen. Armttage said that he
had met woman whom he knew only
as Marie at road house which they
both freQuented. She was a friend of
the piano player in the resort. The wife

also furnished music in the place, and
Armdtage, who was introduced to the
party by Marie, made friendly during a
months intimacy.
Armitage said that after he stole the
money he got drunk and was unable to
return the checks. Marie and the wife
Of the piano player agreed to do it for
him, and taking the bank wallet to
Brooklyn hired a negro woman to return
1t to the bank. Armdtage said that as
the woman left him, Marie suggested
that she had better take charge of the
stolen money for safety. Armitage says
he gave up the money and the woman
never came back. 1t is believed that
the police have the names of the entire
party and will arrest four.
