TONY JANTz HAS AbAD
CRIMINAL RECORD
BROKE JAIL IN HELENA DRIVEN OUT OF ST. PAUL, AND THREAT
ENED TO SH0OT JUDGE CLANCY AND COUNTY
ATTORNEY BREEN.

Judge lost no time in disposing Of the
young reprobate Picking up copy OF
the state statutes he remarked: II believe
this is the time set for passing sentence
en- Tony Jantz." - Il
I'VE make a motion for a new trial -
replied N. j. Savay. the prisoners at
torney.
"Jantz, have you anything to say -
asked the judge, addressing thest pris-
Cner. no.
Il have nothing TO say whatever''r re-
piled Jantz. rising to his feet. "I~desii'e
to be sentenced immediately" o.
Well Mr.. Jantz' said the court, Son
March l. 1901 the county attorney fied
an information charging you with
assault in the first degree. To the charge
you Pleaded not guilty and went to trial
on the issue. the jury finding you guilty.
On the witness stand Henry Staebler, the
man through whose shoulder you sent a
bullet while trying to rob him. identl-
fled you positively as his assailant both
on direct and cross-eXaminatiOn. This
testimony. together with that of the Of
ticer who ARE -ted :ou. leaves no doubt
in my mind but what you are guilty. For
the crime of robbery twenty years ~
the limit. but in this case 1t is less-it is
only ten years. l will therefore sentence
you to ten years at hard labor in the
penits n.iary."
Jantz took his medicine without finch
ing and as soon as the magic words had
been pronounced he was ushered back to
jail by the officers.
Attorney Savay has been given thirty
days in which to prepare a bill Of ex-
ceptiCns and statement on motion for a
new trial in the case. but If by any pos
sible circumstance Jantz should be given
new deal ana turned loose he will be
transferred to the authorities of Lewis
& Clarke county and tried on the He,-
ena burglary charge provided the butch
ers and other frie nds Of Staebler o,
Butte do not hang him to convenient
cross beam before he gets out of town.

MEETING OF CREDITORS.

A meeting of the creditors of the bank
rupt firm Of John A. Spencer 4 Son Of
Philipsburg will be held in Thompson
Campbell's office tomorrow afternoon for
the purpose of appointing a trustee. The
liabilities of the firm are about $1,000
and the assets about $4,000 of which 81, 500
are book accounts. While there Is a good
deal Of conjecture as to what will be real
lied by the creditors. Mr.. Campbell Is
inclined to the belief that the assets
will yield In the neighborhood of so per
cent. He says that past experience in
bankruptcy cases shows that book ac-
counts generally yield about 10 per cent
Of their value. This Is due to the fact
that bankrupts invariably exert every
effort in the collection Of book accounts
when they find themselves running be-
hind and naturally the accounts that are
left are the poorest.

SETTING VACATED.
Witness Was Absent in the Assault
Case of David Meagher.

The case of the STATE against David
Mea CHER, charged WITH assault in the
first degree on Jerry Sullivan on the 9th
OF last November. was called for trial in
judge C.ancys court today but a mo-
ti6n for a continuance until the next
term of court was made and sustained
The motion was based upon the affidavit
o. the defendant. 1t stated that the de-
PENDANT could not safely go to trial for
the reason that Frederick Bitters, ma
terial witness for the defense, was alb
sent from the state; that if Bitters were
pr sent he would testify that Sullivan
provoked the assault by using vile, vul-
gar and abusive language towards
Meagher.
The county attorney would not consent
to this allegation going into the testi-
mony in the absence OF the alleged wit
ness, and the setting of the case was ac-
Card.ngiy vacated.

Tony JantZ was sentenced to ten years
in the penitentiary today by Judge
Clancy for having shot and dangerously
wounded Henry Staebler on the night of
December IA. and had it been within
the power of the court to give him 100
years he doubtless would have received
it.
Jantz is about as tough a mug as has
ever entered the limits of Butte. Sinc-
his arrest here it has been ascerta ;ned
that he is not only a highwayman. but
dangerous burglar. While in Jail await
ing trial the chief of the Helena police
f, rec visited the Jail and at once recog-
nized him first degree burglar of
that city who broke Jail there while
avail ing trial for one of his star jobs.
There is now pending against him in the
courts of Lewis and Clarke county an
information charging him with burglary
in the first degree 1t has been also
learned that Jantz was driven out of st.
Paul on account of his criminal actions
in that city. After his conviction last
week he gave it out cold that he intended
to shoot Judge Clancy and County Attor-
ney Breen this morning. but failed to
keep his word. This statement is what
eau ed a sea CHI of the Jail to be made
by the sheriff last Friday. In the search.
however. no shooting iron was found. but
Information leaked out today to the ef
feet that the Jail contained a revolver at
the time the search was made and that
it had been thrown on top of one of the
cells when the men We're ordered to line
up outside. While the cells and them
selves We're being searched. If such was
the case the weapon was efficiently dis
posed of afterwards, for another search
failed to reveal 1t.
When Jantz was taken into court to-
day he was accompanied by two deputy

lice court this morning on a charge of

charge of disturbance. His case was set
for tomorrow afternoon
In giving an explanation of the dis
turbance Sharkey told the court that he
was in a saloon near the corner of Main
and Broadway with a friend and had
some words with Robinson. The latter
caught UP an ice pick and started after
him remarking to Sharkey that he in
tended to cut him down to his size.
Sharkey beat a retreat to the sidewalk
but the colored man followed him and
Sharkey was compelled to draw gun to
protect himself.
Officer Mcconnell who made the arrest
said that he was approached by some one
who told him that Sharkey had a gun
and intended to use it on Robinson. He
arrested Sharkey and afterwards made
inquiries about the trouble. He was told
that the colored man had chased Sharkey
out of doors with an ice pick and the
latter drew a pistol to protect himself.
Judge sullivan told the defendant that
he had right to protect himself from
t such an assault He took the matter
under advisement until tomorrow morn
/ ing and let the defendant so on his own
reco"niZance.
+! When Robinson was arraigned Clerk
Scheffel asked him if he had not been in
the police court two or three times be-
! fore. Robinson replied that if he had it
did not affect the present case. On Os-
oember "a of last year Robinson was shot
in the leg by colored woman known as
Ollie Reddick who claimed that she was
| trying to get away from her admirer
/ Previous to that time Robinson was fined
! in the police court for abusing the wO-
man.

ERVILLE CONSTABLE.

The county commissioners today made
an order dispensing with the services Of
Joseph Vogel, who for nearly two months
has been investigating the condition Of
those who have been drawing rations,
rent and fuel from the county. When
Mr.. Vogel was commissioned for the job
1t was with the understanding that he
would put in a month at it, but he per-
formed such good service that 1t was de-
cided to keep him on another month.
Thomas Neenan and NJ. ]. O'Connor
justices of the peace of Walkerville
petitiOned the county commissioners on
Saturday for the removal Of w. H. l..
Safer their constable. who was appoint
ed to the position by the board on ac-
count of the failure of the regularly elect
ed constable to justify. The justices al
lege that Safer does not attend to bust
ness in person. but works for collection
agents in this city while deputies APP
pointed by him look after his business
as constable. Today Safer appeared be-
fore the board and said that while he had
appointed deputies he did not believe he
was doing wrong and would like to be
given another chance. He was informed
that the matter of appointing deputies
had been referred to the county attorney
for an opinion and that In the meantime
he should not hold the position Of con-
stable.
The county attorney will probably rem

you will have eighty million bushels Of
wheat in your state this year" After it
was explained tc him that in twenty min

ties-Sedgwick and Sumner-whose yield
aggregated eleven million bushels, he
looked incredulous.
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful"
he exclaimed.

Mr.. Long tried to persuade General
Grosvenor 10 spend a day in Wichita be
fore returning home, but the Ohio states
man said he could not possibly do it.
In appearance General Grosvenor does
not look to be the great man that he is.
In Kansas he would be considered as
one Of the plain common people. Mr..
Long says he is one of the strongest men
in the nation and by far the best debater
