was putting down rear window OF the
store when the officer came upon him.
and. apparently, he had just stepped out
Of the window and had been inside OF
the store.
He could give no satisfactory reason
for his presence where he was found, 80
the officer arrested him and locked him
up on a charge Of attempted Burglary
on suspicion.
This occurred between II and IL O'clock
at night, at time when the arrested
man could hardly have any respectable
business at the rear Of the wallpapdr
store.
It was learned that Wing had worked
for the proprietor of the store several
days ago. painting a sign for him. The
latter. however. said that he knew MOTH
ing about him, and refused to ball him
out Of Jail. He told the police that Wing
was stranger to him. and that the
latter had no business that he knew o.
to be where he was found. nor to enter
the store at such an hour Of the night
through window.
1t is thought that Wing opened the
window Of the store in order to effect
an entrance. Nothing was missing to-
day from the store. however. so far a
the proprietor could discover upon first
examination. II Wing intended to rob
the store he had not succeeded in ac-
complishing anything before the officer
arrested him.

London, Aug. 12.-Many imperial yeo-
many who have returned from South
Africa are still complaining that they
have not vet received their arrears Of
pay.
1t appears that in the case of more
than one yeomanry battalion no ac-
count was kept Of advances made to
the rank and file in South Africa.
The war office authorities consequent
~ cannot tell what amounts are now
due to some Of the men, and they have
decided not to settle any claims until
proper accounts have been rendered.
The affair is becoming scandal and
certainly is not simplifying the work
OF the recruiting sergeant.
In many instances the men have been
obliged to pawn the medals which they
recently received at the hands of the
king.

HE TALKS CONCERNING THE
AFFlDAvITS IN THE MINNIE
HEAlEY CASE.
Denies That Mrs. Bracket Was Ever
in His Employ or That He Nver
Authorized Her to Offer anyone
Money in His Interests-He
Also Talks at Length Of
the Minnie Healey Con-
troversy.

A special from New York to the Salt
Lake Tribune under date Of August 10
gives the following interview With F.
Augustus Heinze with relation to the
recent affidavits in the Minnie Healy
case.
Speaking with reference to the
charges brought in Montana against
Judge Harvey of the supreme court Of
that state, in which it is alleged that
a Mrs. Bracket was employed by F.
Augustus Heinze to influence Judge
Harney's decision of the Minnie Hea
ley mine case in his favor, Mr. Heinze,
who has been in New KOrk since early
in June, today said:
II know nothing about the accusa-
tions made against either Judge Har-
ney or Mrs. Bracket. Mrs. Bracket
never has been nor is she now in my
employ, and I never authorized her to
make any offers to Judge Harvey or
any one else in my interests.
Mrs. Bracket, a very estimable
lady. was committee clerk during
the recent session of the legislature in
January and February of this year.
She then came to Butte and opened an
office there as general custom ste
nographer. Her Office was on the same
premises as those of Mr.. Dygert, the
lawyer who claimed to have acted as
a go-between between her and Judge
Harvey, and who claimed to have in
tercepted ssne of her letters.
1.-THE controversy between Miles Fin
len and myself with reference to the
Minnie Healey mine was practically as
to whether or not the property had
been turned over to me. Mr.. Finlen,
lin 1898, after spending $4,000 in trying
to develop the property, had been un-
able to find anything of value there,
and at conference at which there
were three other men besides Mr.. Fin
len and myself. agreed to turn the
property over to me with the under
standing that If I should find anything
which should justify me in taking up
his bond on the property. which was
for 800, 900, ] would then repay him
the $4,000 which he had expended In
a vain attempt to discover values
there.
"At the trial the three gentlemen
besides myself testified to this condl-
ton of affairs, and Mr.. Finlen's mine
SUPERINTENDENT and mine foreman also
testified that they had been ordered by
Mr.. Finlen to turn the property over
! to me, so that the main point OF con-
| troyersy in the suit was testified to by
seven witnesses. Six of there testified
in support of my contention, and only
one. Miles Finlen. the plaintiff In the
action, testified the other way.
st consider this entire agitation re-
snlts from an attempt to bolster up an
excessively weak case for the purpose
of making an attempt to produce
record to use upon appeal"
