Resmade to save the necks of James Nc
Arthur and Clinton Dotson, recently
sentenced to suffer the death penalty for
murder.
Such move has not been unexpected,
although there are many persons who
entertained the belief tina, ,nasmuch as
the evidence produced at the trials con-
elusively established the guilt of the two
men it would be a hopeless task to try to
induce higher tribunal to change the
verdict.
James G. Smith of Deer Lodge and c.
j. Walsh of this city, the attorneys who
defended the condemned men, held a con-
ference yesterday and decided to appeal
the cases to the supreme court. They
7Nvere engaged in going over the trans
acripts yesterday and today. and immedi-
s6te action will be taken.
!. By reason of taking the cases to the
supreme court the hanging will not oc-
eur on 'the~date scheduled, Sept. g. and it
is claimed that it will be at least three
months before the supreme judges will
be prepared to make public their de-

Especial to Inter Mountain.)
Anaconda. Aug. n-R. de B. Smith
was the hero Saturday in stopping a run
away that threatened for a time to end
fatally for some one.
Mr.. Smith was riding horseback on
Seventh street when he saw, about one
half block ahead Of him, a team of
horses attached to a buggy dashing mad
ly along and a small child, screaming
wildly, in the vehicle.
He put spurs to his horse and sue
ceeded in catching and turning the rum
away team before they struck the large
ditch near Eighth street. Then followed
battle royal between the man on horse
back and the maddened animals attached
to the carriage.
By cowboy swing Mr.. Smith sue
ceeded in getting hold Of the lines, which
were dragging the ground. He fastened
them to the horn Of his saddle and
reined in his horse. That well-trained
animal knew what was expected of him.
and after a few jumps more the runaway
was over. and the child was uninjured.

our orders.
"That by reason of the said Keenen's
habits of drunkenness, threats and
characterization he is incompetent, un-
worthy, unfit and unsafe to remain
any longer upon the police force of
said city. That such action as here
iinbefore set forth on the part of said
Keenen is calculated to bring discredit
upon not only us as officers, but also
upon the police force of said city,
William Moore, an employe of the
smelters, has taken exceptions to pur-
ported affidavit in which he was made
to say he had heard keenan, make
threats that as soon as he should be re-
instated on the police force he would in:-
mediately proceed to 'fix'' and "do bodily
harm" to both Chief Taylor ond Assist
ant Chief O'Brien.
Moore denies that he made any such
statement, but admits saying that
keenan, had told him the taking OF his
star from him was piece of spite work,
and that he would get even.
The affair will undoubtedly be the
signal for vast amount of heated dis
cussion at the next meeting Of the coun-
Gil, as the aldermen appear to be divided
on the merits Of the case.

Anaconda, Aug. 12.-In spite Of the
fact that an exceptionally large number
of people from Butte visited Anaconda
and Mountain View park yesterday, the
day in the city was quiet.
Sons of St. George of Butte held their
annual picnic at the park, and fully
1,205 people from Butte were in attend-
ance. The largest portion Of the crowd
came on the IL o'clock train. but quite
a contingent arrived early in the morn
ing and others kept coming all ALTERS
noon on the various trains.
The day at the park was spent il
athletic events, dancing. etc. Many
persons from Butte, upon their arrival
at the park, proceeded to seek cool.
shady spot and make the day one OF
rest.
The Alice band of Butte was on the
grounds and gave concert during the
afternoon. 1t may be said that notwith<
standing the size of the crowd. yester-
days picnic was the most orderly and
pleasant so far this year.

SMOKE KILLING VEGETATION
Residents Of Anaconda Are in Trouble
Regarding the Future OF
Their City.

(Special to Inter Mountain)
Anaconda, Aug. 12.-On every hano
this morning could be heard remarks
about the sulphur smoke which seemed
to have deluged the city.
It is a peculiar fact that while there
Is no more smoke from the smelters tnan
in former years. it seems to settle over
the city. In the western portion of the
town the trees are slowly but surely
dying off.
It is believed that it is only a matter
of time until Anaconda's surroundings
will present the same barren aspect as
those of Butte. Many of the citizens OF
Anaconda remember when the nearby
hills, which are now entirely destituNc
of verdure. presented an unbroken ex-
parse of green. but now, as was re-
marked yesterday, ''The blades OF grass
are four feet apart"

VopVCIdI MOUnta1n.1
Anaconda, Aug. 12.-It has been def
nitely decided by the management of the
Montana Jockey club that there will be
no races in Anaconda.
~. The reason for this is that the horse
men who are at Butte did not want to
tome to Anaconda, and, in fact, many
of them absolutely refused to do so, but
said they would take their strings back
to California, or wherever they came
from originally.
So Butte will have four more weeks Of
racing and Anaconda none. The news
was received differently by different peo-
pie in Anaconda. Some are sorry, but
more of them are glad Of it, and the gem
eral impression seems to be that the
city will be better off without the races.
