Evidence insufficient.
ESPECIAL TO INTER MouNTArN.1


Anaconda, August Is.-Mamie Conroy
was acquitted yesterday by a jury in Po-
lice Judge Hayes court of the charge of
stealing ring which belonged to Mrs.
Gus Overstrom. The complaint on which
the warrant was issued was sworn to by
Mrs. Gus Overstrom.
There were a number of witnesses for
both sides. Attorney John Toan appeared
in place Of County Attorney Duffy and J.
II. Boarman was for the defense.
Mrs. Overstrom testified that she kept
her jewelry in a drawer and shortly after
Mamie Conroy left the position of scrv-
ant in her home the ring was missed.
Later it was discovered in the show window
of the jewelry store owned by w. II.
Davidson, on East Park avenue. The
jeweler stated he had purchased the ring
from a girl but could not identify the
Conroy girl.
The defense denied the charge and it
was proved that the only time the Conroy
girl had been in Davidson's store was
when she took ring there to have it re-
paired. The jury decided there was not
sufficient evidence to prove the gilt of the
defendant

BIG CO BETWEEN
HAYS AND STEWART
MATCH MAY BE ARRANGED AS PRE-
LlMlNARY TO THE HAWKINS
MCCARTHY CONTEST.

II the arrangements now under way go
through, lovers of the boxing for-cxer-
else" exhibits in Butte will be afforded
rare treat at the Broadway theater
August 10.
AS has been announced the contest be-
tween Dal Hawkins and Jerry Mccarthy
will be held and the match is looked upon
as an event in pugilistic circles. The
news of the match was received with de-
light by those who know both men and
who looked forward to one of the best
exhibitions yet given in the city.
In addition the arrangements are on for
preliminary 30 to the main event which
will rival it in point of interest. This will
be Io-round bout between Ike Hays and
John Stewart. For several weeks past
these two have been ogling each other in
kindly fashion and telling their friends
what they could do to each other.
Three weeks ago a match was made
between the pair, but owing to a hitch in
the proceedings on the part of Stewards
hackers, the bout was declared off. The
two men have been making goo goo eyes
at each other ever since and today it was
finally agreed that they should come to-
gether If place for the pulling off Of
the match could be secured.
The proposition was laid before the
promoters of the Hawkins Nc Carthy
match, who quickly realize the value Of
the pair as drawing card.
In the opinion of experts, the bout will
be of grotesque nature, chiefly through
well known antics Of the colored cham
pion, who always gives his audiences the
worth of their money, win or lose.
AS side show to the big event 1t is
undoubtedly the best attraction the man
agement can offer and will be as big a
drawing card as the two principals.
