JUDGE CLANCY MAY THROW The
C0MANCHE CASE OUT OF COURT
THE MATTER IS ALLEGED TO HAVE BEEN ONCE LITGATED IN
THE OTHER Department OF THE DISTRICT COURT

1t is just possible that after all Judge
Clancy will fire out of court the suit
brought in the name of Adolph wetz-
stein against the Boston & Montana
Mining company to quiet title to quar-
ter interest in the Comanche lode claim,
one of the richest and most productive
ore producers under the control of the
based upon remark made by the judge
in connection with the case yesterday
afternoon, at which time motion to set
aside the order of injunction made Aby
the court a few days ago was presented
to his honor by the attorneys for the de-
PENDANT company.
1t will be remembered that the suit of
Wetzstein was tried in department No.
l few years ago, and in that trial
every point was decided against Wetz-
stein. This fact was brought to the at
ention of the judge yesterday and he re-
marked in open court that if the sub
ject matter had been once Irrigated in
the other department he would not hear
it again, adding that he would not be i'm
posed upon. Attorney j. M. Denny,
however. denied that the matt been
disposed of, and the judge concluded, on
his statement, Mr.. Denny being the legal
Of the p,a mt II. to hear the
motion to vacate the order of injunc-
ton.
The motion of the Boston & Montana
company to vacate contains clause re-
Questing that the company be allowed
to properly renair and keep the property
in shape for mining operations. 1t also
asks for a modification Of the order in
such way that the time for hearing the
order to show cause why the property
should not be Kept closed until the trial
of the suit will be heard at an earlier
date than April ?. The motion is sup
ported by affidavits from A. a. Abbott.

foreman at the West Colusa mine. and
l.. o. Evans. one of the attorneys for the
defendant. Mr.. Abbott says in his affi-
davit that the Comanche is operated
through the shaft Of the West Co.
lusa; that there are thirteen lev
sells In the mine and they are all operated
through the COlusa; that above the 400
all the levels of the Comanche are in bad
ground which requires constant atten-
ton to prevent serious consequences;
that other parts of the mine require tim
bering and the water must be kept out;
that under the order of the court the
company and it's employees are prohibit
ed from even entering the property, and
1t Is therefore impossible to say what
damage will accrue while the mine is
closed to inspection and repair; that the
company has been obliged to discharge
about go men because of the order of in
junction.
The affidavit of Mr.. Evans is lengthy
one covering about fifty pages of type
written matter. In it Mr. Evans recounts
al of the facts in connection with the
former suits of Wetzstein in the Com
anche case and Gets forth the result of
the contest. adding that the sole ground
upon which the defendant asks to have
the order of injunction set aside is that
the court was imposed upon when the
application for it was made. Final judg-,
ments against Wetzstein in two distinct
actions, he says. have been entered in
department. No. l. One Of these judg-
ments has been confirmed by the SUI
preme court and the other is stil pend
ing.
Mr.. Denny told the court his side would
not object TO the Boston & Montana en-
ter.ng the property to protect it and ask
ed for time in which to prepare to COM
bat the motion. In reply to this the
judge said he would take the matter up
tomorrow afternoon.

Special Corresponds nee Inter Mountain.
Helena, February II.
The senate can point with pride to
the number of house bills that it has
killed, but now that it getting a dose
of it's own medicine daily, it is beginning
to view the situation with alarm"
Accordingly, after weighty de.iDera-
ton. it has concluded that the best thing
to be done is to petition the mouse to
kiss ard make up, TO play once again in
the sana. 3rial back yard and Yell down
its pretty rain barrel-which should be
a good thing for the lungs of nedglins
orators.
An executive session of The sena e has
been held to consider the question on
account of the fact that OF late the iiouse
has manifested a disposition to xiii every
bill emanating from ,na upper house, by
way OF ra1alia ion. 1t was decided to

ton today that may greatly aid him in
capturing one of the other two men.
About 10 o'clock Sunday morning, which
was about two hours after Schrcken-
gost, Dempsey and Healey escaped, a
horse belonging to John E. Duhame was
stolen from the range. short distance
north of the Alice mine at Walkerville.
The animal was feeding with two or
three others and would not have gone
away of it's own accord. The horse Is
described as a bay, branded rs u" on
the left shoulder. The fetlocks of both
forelegs have been clipped. When Hea-
ley reached the street in front of the
court house, after leaving the Jail, he
turned east and ran as far as Alaska
street, then turned north, and when last
seen was making tracks towards Walk
ervile. 1t is now surmised that he stole
Duhame's horse and is heading for the
Canadian boundary. If Healey stole the
horse and is travelling north he will not
touch Helena. as he is known there,
having been sent uD from that district
for burglary several years ago.
In the description of Dempsey sent
out mistake was made as to the color
of his eyes. 1t was stated that they are
dark, but they are a greenish grey. The
peculiar color of the mans optics was
