listed will bo mustered out in San

Governor felt that the men would take
such an act as an insult to them.

FREED BY HABEAs CORPUS.
Tessa Severina Obtains the Glorious
Boon OF Liberty.

Judge McClernan this afternoon heard
the arguments of the attorneys i'm ha-
beas corpus proceeding brought by Tessa
Severina, who was in Jail and desired to
get out.
Severina was in the county Jail. and
Judge McClernan ordered that he be
discharged from custody at the close
of the hearing.
In his petition for the writ of habeas
corpus Severina alleged that he was ar
rested and Jailed by the sheriff in oDe-
dience to commit tment issued by Judge
Taylor in the civil suit of Joseph Boyer
against Peter kinetti and himself for
the alleged reason that he was about to
leave the state for the purpose of de-
frauding his creditors.
The petition alleged that none of the
papers in the case show that the defend
ant was about to leave the state for the
purpose of defrauding his creditors.
Judge Wines argued the petition for
Severna and Attorney Dierls was pres
ent to resist the discharge of Severina.
but made no argument.
Upon ordering Severna's discharge
the court said that Severina was never
legally in custody. A judgment had been
entered against him, and the his arrest
followed, which, according to Ju 7se Nc
Clernan, was without authority of law,

RAISING THAT $4,000.
Matter Again Discussed at the Bust
ness Mems Meeting.

At a meeting of the Business Men
associa ton last evening the question OF
raising the proposed $4,000 with which
to entertain the mining congress in
Butte next year was again considered,
about two hours being consumed in the
discussion of the subject.
Several persons expressed their views
in the matter among them being w. o.
Speer, Patrick J. Brophy, Edwin l..
Mayo, f. H. Renisch, ]. E. Richards,
O. Hight and G. S. Passmore.
AS one of the committee appointed
by the association to see what could
be done in the way of raising the nee
essary $4,000. Judge Speer said he had
called on the old board of county COM
missioners and requested a donation
from the county, but had been told that
it was not known whether the board
had power to give up county funds for
such a purpose. He said he would see
the new board.
Alderman Mayo told the gathering that
the city would not appropriate any

The day of the railroad ticket broker
in Butte is over, SO far as the making
Of big money is concerned.
A few years ago it was winner, and
1t is still winner in ore sense of the
word, but the winnings are small as
compared with the old days, the days
when all of the companies doing business
here recognized the scalper as a portion
of their stock in trade.
The Oregon Short Line has cut the
scalpcr off at the pockets and refuses to
have any dealings with him. In fact,
1t has not had anything to do with him
since the Union Pacific lost control of
the line.
Prior to that time things came pretty
smooth for the broker. The change of
control, however, settled the fate of the
scalper' on the big return" basis, and
from information obtainable the COM
pany has profited by it.
Not Wanted Inside.
when scalper enters the office of the
company here" says General Agent Will
son, land wants to do business with us
we just tell him to step outside, as we
do not care for his patronage
Our company has it's transportation
easy matter for one tc ride on someone
else's ticket, and it is rather humiliating
for passenger to be told in the middle
of the night out on the cold prairie that
he must pay his fare.
Business Is Good.
II cannot see that the shutting out Of
the scalper has interfered with our bust
ness a particle. Last month we carried
more persons on our trains out of Butte
than ever before in one month, and l
think the Northern Pacific did the same.
There was a sort of general rush
south and west, the majority Of the trav-
elers being miners bound for the Couer
d'Alenes. Utah, Colorado, California and
Arizona.
quite a few went to the latter, as
some Montana men have taken charge OF
mining properties there and are employ
ing many Montana men.
1T is impossible for a scalper to be ON
the square, In the first place, he must
sign the name of someone else to a ticket,
and that is forgery.
Must Juggle the Truth.
I'm the second place he must juggle
the truth in other ways in order to do
business, and that is wrong"
The Oregon Short Line company has
sent agents into the Thunder Mountain
district of Idaho for the purpose of look
ing over the field with view to ascer-
tanning whether the construction of a

pany.

"A warrant was issued for Knuti. With

money for the mining congress because

money for the mining congress because
1t had none to give.
E. H. Renisch expressed the belief that
the men in business in the city should
not be called upon to bear the entire ex-
pense OF the congress. He thought the
meeting of the congress a matter that
concerned all alike and, therefore. the
expense should be borne by all.
Mr.. BrOphy went ON to say that he
thought the business men should raise
the money for the congress even If such
institutions as the mining companies ana
breWeries did not assist them. He said:
II am sorry in the first place to take
issue with my friend Renisch, with
whose ideas am usually in such hearty
accord; but this proposition represents
more than the mere dollars and CENTS
involved in tit represents the hOnps'
of Butte and the good faith of its buSi-
ness men in sending delegation TO
Boise last summer instructed to extehd
to the International Mining congress an
invitation to hold its next session in
Butte. The delegation was also instruct
ed to guarantee expenses.
While it might be severe on business
men, If l were a member of the COUNCIL
l would oppose. the councils appropriat-'
ing money for the purpose, because 1t
would ne establishing very dangerous
precedent.
IF This proposition had been made by
Helena and accepted by the representa-
tives of the congress, there would be no
doubt as to the attitude of the business
men of Helena on the matter Of enter
tainment.
while many of us at times are pos
sessed of feeling that Helena is a
bankrupt town, nobody has ever sug-
gested that it is bankrupt in public
spirit or local pride.
And there is no reason why the bust
ness men of Butte should place them
selves in a position TO suffer by COM
parison with any other body of business
men or submit themselves to the humil-
iatiOn of having violated an arrange
ment entered into in good faith by an
authorized committee. SO long as the
amount involved is so trifling in conl-
parison with the community's good
NAME"
Ex-Governor ttickards thought the
hotels. restaurants and other places that
would be patronized by members OF the
congress should yield literally towards
the fund, and favored canvass of the
commercial interests of the city with a
view of ascertainfng the amount that
could be raised among them.
c. s. Passmore favored popular sub
scripti0n as a means OF ! aisins the
money.
o. Hight, vice president o.. the as
ISOLATION, said Butte was abb, to take
care Of the congress. Concert ID action
and determination on the part nf the
citizens was all, he said, that was
needed.
The soliciting committee will meet
again this evening in the association
rooms for further action in the matter.

SUIT FOR $4,000 BEGUN.
Hugh Mcmahon Claims Damages From
City of Butte.

Hugh Mcmahon today brought dam
age suit for $4,000 against the city of
Butte.
Mcmahon alleges that the defendant
left a dangerous embankment on Nor
rison street, and that he was upset out
of a cart by the bank and had his left
leg broken in two places, his ankle
sprained and wrenched and was other
wise made sick and sore.
The complaint alleges that it is the
duty of the city to keep the streets in
order, and that the embankment was
in an unguarded and dangerous con-
dition and without proper protection,
and without light, signal, railing or bar
rier to indicate danger.
Mcmahon says his injuries kept him in
bed and away from business for three
months; cost him $500 for medical atten-
dance; still incapacitate him and are
worth $1,000 to him in damages.
