Gamblers Arrested by City Officials
Who in Turn Are Arrested.
CONTEMPT OF HARNEY's COURT
The City Claims That 1t Has Juris-
diction at the Race Track, But
Pending the Hearing Judge Harney
Restrained the City From Interfer-
ing, Which Was Disreoarded.

Butte, Sept 11-Mayor Davey,
Chief of Police Reynolds Police
Judge Boyle, City Attorney Lamb
and Police Officers Young, McGillc
and Henderson, and James Sullivan,
will be hailed before some judge of
the district court to answer charge
of contempt. They were arrested to-
day and will have hearing on Sep
tember 20. The contempt proceed
ings grew out of an effort of the city
officials to prevent pool selling within
three miles of the limits of Butte and
an alleged contempt by the officials
of Judge Harney's injunction against
them, and interfering with the selling
of pools at the race track which is
outside the city limits.
City Attorney Lamb yesterday filed
complaint charging e. G. Sachs, e.
Brimley, Ed Dorroty and Geo. Shoe
string with selling pools and betting
on horse races within the city limits.
At noon the officers went to the
track to obtain evidence. The entries
were posted and the employees in
place, but as no tickets were sold
they failed in their object.
At 2:30 o'clock Officers James Sui
livan, Young, Henderson and McGil-
lie again proceeded to the track, and
this time there was no lack of evi-
dence. There was a stream of money
pouring in on the eastern races and
the poolroom was in full blast.
The officers waited while twenty
men bought tickets, and then called
on E. G. Sachs, manager, and E. M.
Brimley, cashier of the club; Ed Dor
roty, an employe, and George "Shoe-
string" an outsider, who had pur-
chased a pool ticket, to accompany
them to the police station.
Mr.. Sachs said that while he be-
lieved that the city had no jurisdic-
ton outside of the corporation limits
and that if any arrests were made
they should be by the county officers,
he would not resist, as it was the in
tention of the club to continue the
making of books and running of races
at the track. He claims that the
state law allows this, and the point
in question is identically that over
which the club had trouble in July
last, and that the injunction then OBJ
tanned would hold now as then until
the supreme court should decide.
The patrol wagon was brought to
the track and the four men arrested
climbed in, followed by the good
natured chatting of the attending
crowd.

noon at Hamilton, after resolving
unanimously to get down to business
and do something of practical benefit
to the newspaper business of Monta-

cessary to do something in the nature
of business that will count There
are some, things to be done in order
to make the association of practical
use to it's members and it is planned
to get right up close to the legislative
lobby and be recognized as an i'm
portant factor in this state of many
newspapers.
A legislative committee was ap-
pointed today among other commit
tees. w. w. Cheeley, manager of the
Inter Mountain, was elected presi-
dent by acclamation, as were all of

will be devoted entirely to business

SPORT MURPHY TELLS TAMMANY MEN
NOT TO OPPOSE PENNSYLVANIA
TUNNEL FURTHER.

The Tammany aldermen, oil the advice Of
Sport Murphy. the leader of Tammany Hall.
are to vote for the approval Of the amended
franchise for the Pennsylvania Railroad tunnel.
It is expected that the franchise resolution will
be presented to the board at an early date. 1t
may come up for final acceptance at the next
meeting. although the usual procedure would
be to give it, after introduction, to the Rail-
road committee for consideration. John 7.

yesterday:
Just before leaving for Mount Clemens. Mich,
yesterday Mr. Murphy told that it was not
advisable TO oppose the granting or a trahchlss
to the Pennsylvania people any longer. he sAlu
il was thing that the public wanted, ana tnat
II would be bad policy TO oppose the eIdHtllS
of the franchise The aldermen as matter
of fact have not delayed the granting OF the
amended franchise The fact is, the contract IS
still in the hands of the Rapid Transit Com
mission, awaiting two signatures am IN
formed that one of the delayed signatures is that
of President A. L. Orr. of the commission. we
tried on Monday to get tbs contract sent down.
so it could come before our beard on TUESDAY
The commission refused to send II 10 US. on
the ground that two more signatures must oe
obtained. We are still waiting for 1t, and this
time 1 want the public to know that the Rapld
Transit Commission, not the Board of Aldermen,
is delaying approval Of the contract
When asked if the contract would be ap-
proved by the aldermen Mr., Mccall said:

position, anyway, we snail take pIOillpb dSSA'4i'
When President Orr of the Rapid Transit
Commission was informed of the change of front
on the part of the aldermen, he said;
Il is very gratifying thing to know that the
Tammany men are at last going to allow the
Pennsylvania people to build the tunnel MI

Mr. Orr thinks that the city, under the terms
of the amended contract. IS getting all that could
be expected on this score he said;
There are in this city from 200 to 1000
