the property was idle. In addition to
this the expense OF keeping the levels.
shaft and crOSs-cuts in repair was $3,-
500 per month. and the cost of prevent
ing the Slopes from caVing $1,000 making
total of $4,000 per month. This ex-
pense, he said, did not include the wages
paid engineers who operate the pumps
or the money paid to carpenters, which
aggregated $1,000 or $4,000 per month.
How much ore We're YOU extracting
from the property before the injunction
order was issued" asked Mr.. Forbis
From 1900 to $4,000 tons per month";
AT what did you value the ore?"
Mr.. Batterman was cross-quesdioned
at considerable length with reference to
tie source OF the water in the Comanche,
the apparent object being to find out
If some of the moisture raised from the
shaft did not come from some of the
company's other properties close by. In
this connection he said some of the wa.
ter from the Comanche flowed into the
Leonard. and he thought the cost Of
handling this portion was about $500 a
nlt nth. AS to the total expense of keep
ing the Leonard clear of water, 1t was
about $500 per month. Referring to thq
work of keeping the slopes and levelt
in repair. he said there was much ground
to cover, there being several hundred
miles of openings as measured by square
sets of tifnbers. Some of the slopes
were $50 feet wide. 100 high and several
hundred in length.
The testimony of Mr.. Batterman clos
eI the hearing, and Attorney Denny
opened the argument for the Wetzstein
side. In his remarks he referred to the
location of the ground in 1881 and then,
by chain of conveyances, carried it
clear up to the time when Wetzstein
set up his allegation of ownership to a
quarter interest.
The other side submitted the matter
without argument.
1T appears there Is question and
contention about this deed, and l WITH
have to issue the temporary Injunction"
said the court. Nov. about the bond.
Do you think $40, 900 would be right?"
I'VE don't think $780, 900 would be
right If the property Is to be closed for
year or two or until the case is tried"
said Mr.. Forbis.
We'll, I will fix it at $4,000 and give
the plaintiff until II o'clock next Monday
to furnish it, added the judge.
I'VE ask for an exception to the in
junction order and also the amount OF
the bond" said Mr.. Forbis. 1t was
granted along with ten days for the
Boston Montana company to prepare
and serve bill of exceptions.

NEARING THE CLOSE.
Testimony in the Butte & Boston Case
Almost Completed.

Judge Harvey put in another day lis
tenng to testimony in the hearing of the
order to show cause why a temporary
oruer of injunction should not be issued
in the suit of the Butte Land and In
Nestment company. and others, against
r. O. Merriman and Louis Mason, an ac-
ton involving what is known by the
plaintiffs as the Butte & Boston placer
ard by the defendants as the Gulf quartz
lode claim. The hearing, however, is
nearing an end and will probably be fin
isned some time tomorrow. The proper
ty in controversy Is located near the en-
trance to Park Canyon, east of the city
and is patented under a placer title. A
few months ago Merriman and Mason
discovered quartz on the ground and
were doing an alleged good business in
taking it out when the plaintiffs had
them temporarily restrained from work.
ing, pending an order to show cause
why the order should not assume the
form of an injunction and remain n
force until a suit now on file for the
purpose of attempting to knock out the
placer title is tried. This order is the
one now being heard.

EnJ0|MED FROM WORKING
THE CoMANcHE MINE
JUDGE CLANCY MADE THE TEMPORARY RESTRANG ORDER PER-
MANENT AND FIX ED BOND AT $4,000.

The hearing Of the order to show cause
why the temporary restraining order en-
joining the defendant from working the
Comanche mining claim should not be
made permanent pending the trial Of the
suit brous hit in the name of Adolph Wetz-
stein against the Boston & Montana
Mining company to decide title to a quar-
ter interest in the Comanche mining
claim was commenced in Judge Clancy's
court this morning. The plaintiff in the
action was present in person and was
represented by Attorneys J. NJ. Denny
and John j. Mediation of the Montana
Ore Purchasing company's corps Of le
gal advisers; the defendant, by Messrs.
Forbis & Evans of the legal department
of the defendant corporation.
The proceedings opened with the verifl-
cation of the location Of the property in
dispute and the subsequent transfer OF
parts of the claim by deed to various
persons until an alleged quarter reached
the plaintiff and the other three-quarters
fell into the possession of the defendant
All of the documents in the action We're
read, among them being an affidavit from
David N. Upton. In the affidavit Mr.
Upton made allegations concerning his
position in the matter which the attor-
neys for defendant claimed was at vari-
ance with testimony given by him at the
trial of the same case in department No.
of the district court a little over three
years ago, at which time John Lindsay
was occupying the judicial bench. After
the plaintiff had closed it's side the de-
PENDANT offered in evidence a transcript
of Mr.. Upton's testimony, the object be-
ing to show that Mr.. Upton had said
things on the witness stand he had not
set forth in the affidavit. The plaintlH
objected to the old testimony becoming
a part of the present proceedings, but
the court overruled the objection.
The defendants attorney then read an
affidavit presented by c. S. Batterman.
This document dealt with the history OF
the Comanche claim from the time 1t
was located up to the date Of it's trans
fer to the Boston & Montana company
The defense objected to it's introduction
on the ground that its contents were
| based upon information and belief, and
| the Judge sustained the objection.
Mr.. Batterman was then called upon
to give testimony relative to the prop
| erty and the cost of keeping it in re-
| pair He said the workings were 1,3Oe
feet deep and it cost the company $1.7O(
per month to keep the water out while
