DISGRACE OF WEED.
Prominent Attorney and Republican
Leader Falls by the Wayside.

Prominent Attorney and Republican
Leader Falls by the Wayside.
An order of the supreme court was
made Tuesday that Ebert D. Weed,
former mayor of Helena and also
former United States attorney for
the district of Montana shall be sus-
pended from practice as attorney and
counsellor in Montana courts for two
years, or until May 26, 1904, at which
time, upon petition and satisfactory
evidence of good conduct in the
meantime, he may be reinstated. Mr..
Weed was found guilty of the four
charges brought against him in petit
ton for his disbarment, brought by
Theodore Mayer. He sold 80 acres
of land to Mayer, and, after the lat
ter had made three payments on it,
aggregating $500, Weed reconveyed
the land to Luther F. Smith.
The second and third charges were
those of malpractice and deceit as
an attorney in settling up the claims
of Angel and Schwendiger in a min.
ing receiver case, in which he with
held considerable sum of money.
In its opinion, the court states that
it is restrained from pronouncing the
harsh sentence of absolute disbar
ment by the fact that otherwise
Weed has borne a good reputation.

which seemed to be a clear case, ac-
cording to general report, fell fat,
through the inability of the prosecu-
ton to substantiate any count in the
indictment, except the fact that
Hawkes. had come to an untimely
end, where, when, or by whom the
prosecution did not specify beyond a
reasonable doubt. The attorneys for
the Russell woman are to be congrat-
ulated upon saving their client from
the tolls, but the most able assist
ance was exerted in this behalf by
the representative of the state who
supplied all the testimony upon
which to base an acquittal.

GRANT AND OCHILTREE.
The Grievance the President Had
Against the Colonel.

The Grievance the President Had
Against the Colonel.
after the war;" said a veteran of
ficeholder, "a warm friendship sprang
up between General Grant and Colonel
Tom Ochiltree, although they had
fought on opposite sides. When Grant
appointed a large number of people
who had been under him to federal
offices, he also appointed Ochiltree.
Tom had been under him in a sense.
Tom was made United States marshal
in Texas.
"Well, you know, in those days Tom
took very deep interest in the ponies
and was a sort of patron saint of rae
ing in the new southwest. He was so
much admired by horsemen generally
that it became quite the thing for own
ers to name their horses after him. At
one time there were not less than a
dozen horses running at various tracks
under the name of Tom Ochiltree.
Everything went lovely until Tom
came up to Washington, several months
after assuming his new duties. In the
course of his visit he called at the
the president. After talking generali-
ties for awhile Tom noticed that the
president seemed to have something on
his mind-didn't appear to be as frank
and cordial as usual. He finally asked
General Grant what the trouble was,
limiting that the chief executive might
not be satisfied with the manner in
which the marshaPs Office was being
conducted.
"'Well, TIL tell you,' said the presi-
dent, Il don't like the way you've been
running about the country, following
the races. l see by the sporting col
umns of the papers that first you are
in Louisville, then you're in New York,
next you're in Saratoga and next some
where out west l would rather you
stayed at home and looked after your

TWO PARDONED.
Urban Moser and Herman kieIhauer
Receive Executive CIemency.

Urban Moser and Herman kielhauer
Receive Executive CIemency.
Governor J. K. Toole granted two
pardons this week and RENTED a
fine. The pardons went to Herman
Kielhauer and Urban Moser.
Kielhauer was sent to the peniten.
tiary from Fergus county May 5,
1901, for two years for grand lar
ceny. AS he is only 10, the judge
who tried him, the county attorneys
and many others petitioned for his
pardon.
Urban Moser is serving a life SEN
tence from Park county for murder
in the second degree, having 0een
sent to the penitentiary January 81,
1891. He has served IL years and
three months, the equivalent of a
20-year sentence. He worked faith
fully upon the improvements at the
prison and was promised a reward
for this. The penitentiary contrac-
tors laid this matter before the gov
ernor as reason for pardon. Then
citizens of Park county and the state
of Missouri sent many petitions. 1t
appears that Moser was drunk at the
time of the killing and was at a dis
advantage at his trial because he is
a foreigner and could not speak En-
glish.
the governor RENTED the fine i'm
posed upon Orlie Sworden, convicted
in Flathead county of violating an
order of the board of health, and
sentenced to 80 days in the county
Jail and fined.

The states witnesses gave prac-
tically the same evidence as at the
coroners inquest, and no star wit
ness was sprung on either side, as
in the Eakright case.
The story as told by the states
witnesses was substantially as fol
lows:
On the day of the killing William
Hawkes. was in the dance hall of
Josh Ariss, on Second avenue west
and had taken several drinks of
whisky and was in an intoxicated
condition. He was in a rather quar-
relsome mood, but had caused no
trouble of any kind.
Late in the afternoon, he was in
the dance hall proper, that opens off
from the saloon, and was quarreling
with some woman in there. None OF
the witnesses, who were all in the sa
loon, saw the actual blow struck, OF
who did it.
After some high words, a scuf1ine
of feet was heard, followed by a fall
and then the witnesses entered the
dance hall to ascertain the trouble
There is stairway leading up from
the dance hall, and Hawkes. was ly
ing on the lower steps with a wound
on the side of his head, from which
the blood was trickling down the
side of his face and neck. The de
PENDANT was there, but said nothine
at that time.
Hawkes. was assisted to his fee
and was conducted to the wash room
where he removed the blood from
his person and then left the place
and, going to Jay Rakestraws barn
he got his team and started home.
When nearing the outskirts of the
city, some of the witnesses saw
Hawkes. and noticed that he wa,
swaying from side to side in his sea
and the team was going without an,
restraint, the lines having dropped
from the drivers hands.
The team was stopped, but befor,

from the wagon seat, and was lyin,
in the bottom of the wagon. He wa

ALDERMEN FAVOR SUNDAY BALL.
BE ALLOWED TO PLAY IN
PROSPECT PARK

Considerable surprise expressed yester-
day when it announced that a resolution
had been offered in the Board of Aldermen, and
passed by that body permitting baseball play
ing on the parade grounds. Prospect Park.
Brooklyn Sunday. Alderman Malone offered
the resolution. After 1t was adopted the board
adjourned.
The parade grounds in Brooklyn used by
hundreds OF amateur teams on week days and
the place is thronged with baseball teams and
cricketers. especially Saturdays and holi-
days. No playing Sunday has ever been per-
mitted.
1t is likely that there will be considerable op-
position to the scheme. Those who favor Sun
day playing say that If the parade grounds are
thrown open to amateur teams Sunday it
Will be the means of keeping many young men
and boys off street corners. Property owners
in the neighboyhood of the grounds will undOubt-
edly oppose the playing of baseball games on
Sunday.
Alderman Patrick H. Malone. who introduced
the resolution, represents the With Aldermanic
District in Brooklyn. When seen at his home
No. POS Twenty sixth-st., by Tribune reporter
last night, he explained his reasons for intro
dUcing the resolution follows:
You see. we have lot of boys down here in
this district and / believe they should be al
lowed to have innocent amusement
Sunday. Where would be better place for
them to have it than in a public park? Grown
up and wealthy people play their golf and have
other games on Sunday, and the boys should
have the same privilege. Most of these boys are
tied up in stores and shops during the week
and need some healthy and innocent outdoor
recreation Sunday. 1t is good deal better
that they should be playing ball in the park
than that they should be loafing around on
the street corners and consorting with bad
men.
Therefore, 1 considered it my duty TO put
through this resolution. There hasn't been any
Sunday ball playing in Prospect Park for thirty
years. Some time ago there attempt
made to get permission for it, but the resolution
was opposed by church people. 1 am
somewhat of Il Sabbatarian myself. but I be-
Heve the Sabbath can be kept better by allowing
