PRELIMINARY HEARING.
The Billings gazette. [volume] (Billings, Mont.) 1896-1919, 1903-02-27
MINERS GIVE BATTLE
Resist Service of Process With Win
chester Rifles.

This was answered by shot and
Immediately a furious battle was
raging. When it ceased three of the
rioters lay dead and many others
were found to be wounded, num-
Der of them fatally.
Seventy three arrests were made, 10
falling to the share of Deputy Cum
ningham and 63 to Sheriff Cook.
All the prisoners were taken to the
county seat of Raleigh, where the 10
United States prisoners were given a
preliminary hearing by Commission
er Dunn and held for appearance at
court here. They will be brought
here on an early train.
The federal authorities will try to
get the state to give up the 63 that
they may be tried in the federal court
but it is doubtful whether it will be
done, as the state court meets on
Monday, and it is thought they can
be tried more expeditiously there. s.
G.. Burdette, of the United Minework
ers of America, went to Breckley this
afternoon to appear for the miners.

HELD ON MURDER CHARGE
HELENA OFFICERS THINK THEY
HAVE THE MAN.

Helena, Feb. 25.-Helena's Jail at
the present time contains a man who
Chief of Police Travis thinks is
wanted in Washington, D. c., on the
charge OF murder. He is a colored
man, and if he is the one wanted there
is $3.50 reward offered for his appre,
hension. Chief Travis has taken his
photograph and will measure him to-
day, according to the Bertillon sys-
tenn. He will forward these measure
ments to Chief of Police Richard Syl-
vester of Washington, and will hold
ter
The man gives his name as John
Jackson and he tallies exactly with the
description given in circular sent
to all police headquarters offering the
reward for the man. His actions in
the city Jail are exceedingly peculiar.
according to Chief Travis way of
thinking, and the man refuses to give
any account of himself Although
it is not known that he came here di-
rectly from Washington, it is fact
that he came from the east and had
been in Chicago not great while ago.
These facts, together with the mans
description answering that of the
fugitive, led Chief Travis to believe
that the man may be the one wanted.
Jackson was arrested in Helena a
few days ago. He was taken in upon
complaint of woman on the west
side who claimed that the man stood
around the house all day and annoyed
her. She complained to the police
and the man was arrested. He was
sentenced to 80 days in Jail this morn
ing for vagrancy. This will give the
officers sufficient time to hear from
Washington.
The circular sent out states that
the man is wanted for murder commit
ted the evening of December "a last,
and comes from the metropolitan po-
lice bureau of the national capital.
The following description is given OF
the man: Light brown stain, colored
man; 81 years of age, 5 feet or 9
inches in height; weighs 14O pounds;
smooth face and wears gray Fedora
hat. short, dark overcoat, white shirt,
no collar. Search for sheath for
six-inch dirk or dagger.
With the exception of the hat and
sheath the man under arrest an
! swers the description, and will be
held pending the answer from Wash
ington.

BAER HAS DONE TIME.
For Violating Postal Laws and for
Grand Larceny.

Washington, Feb. 25.-Captain
Boardman of the Washington police
received information today that
Franklin Baer, with the exception OF
the period from November, 1898, to
April, 1899, has been serving two SEN
tences in the Minnesota state prison
at saltwater. His first term was for
violation of the postal laws and the
second term for grand larceny. He
was discharged on December 6, 1902.
Joe Hobbason and Joseph Huebescher
are other aliases under which he was
known.
There is no clew to his wife. His
account of the Northern Pacific hold
up is regarded as pipe dream.

HELENA WINS THE DAY.
Montana State Fair to Be Held in the
Capital City.

Helena, Feb. 25.-The state fair bill
with Helena as the location for the
fair and $4,000 appropriation, was
recommended for passage in commit
tee of the whole of the house yester-
day afternoon. An effort to secure
the fair for Great Falls and an at
tempt to cut down the appropriation
were the only features of faint op-
position.
Th bill came pretty well down on
the general orders calendar 1t got
consideration late in the afternoon,
just before the hour for adjournment.
1t was read in it's entirety. The first
amendment proposed cutting down
the appropriation. An aye and no
vote was overwhelmingly in favor OF
the original amount, which Speaker
White among others favored in a
brief but earnest talk.
The Great Falls movement fell as
fiat as the attempt to cut down the
appropriation. An amendment by
Self to prevent the fair commissioners
from incurring any debt beyond the
regular appropriation was added tc
the measure Conner proposed an
amendment by which the appropria
ton would be divided into $4,000 for
1903 and $4,000 for 1904. This was
opposed by Lanstrum and other mem
bers of the Lewis and Clarke delega
ton and died.

Charleston, w. Va, Feb. 25.-A
pitched battle took place ar Wright's
coal works in Raleigh county last ev-
ening between 100 United States
deputy marshals and deputy sheriffs
under Chief Deputy Cunningham of
Charleston and Sheriff Cook Of
Raleigh county, and $50 striking min
ers, who refused to permit federal
officers to serve injunction papers.
The posse met with mob armed
with Winchesters who defied arrest
and service of papers. They follow
ed defiance with hostilities, opening
fire on the deputies at once. The dep
uties responded, and the battle ragged
.furiously for several minutes.
Eight strikers were killed, 12 were
wounded and Special Officer Howard
Smith of the Chesapeake & Ohio rail
road was shot in the arm. A striker
slipped upon him and fired. Smith
heart and received it in his arm. He
then killed the striker with a pistol.
After the posse had repulsed the
miners, they followed up their ad-
vantage and secured the arrest of
over 100 men who were brought to
Becky under guard. Deputy Cunning
ham and posse have gone back to the
scene and will arrest everyone i'm
plicated. An ugly strike in progress
there is the cause of the trouble. Most
OF the mob are foreigners.

James Hurley of Roundup also gave
corroborative evidence.
George G. Kinney told of meeting
twoi horseback riders while he was
going to Park City Thanksgiving eve.
One of them he identified as Pat MUIR
ray. In town, he showed the two
men the way to the hotel and was
with them in the hotel. Alexander
Miller was on his way to a dance in
Park City that same night. He saw
the two men in question. He also
identified fur coat stolen from his
buggy that night Samuel Holmes of
Gebo said that while hauling coal for
j. Mccarthy the day of the bank rob-
berry, he saw three men going toward
Pridger. He recognized E. S. Bea-
mans bay horse and recognized Lind
say as one Of the three men who pass
ed the time of day with him.
Two Horses Stolen.
Llewellyn Webb, manager of the
Whitney ranch in Lake Basin, 80 miles
north of Big Timber, identified the
two horses now in Red Lodge, as hav-
ing been stolen from that ranch about
the 18th Of last November.
John Parker, living between the
two Rosebuds in the western part of
Carbon county, next told Of catching
one of the horses on the range few
weeks ago. William Judeman identifi-
ed one of the saddles as the one he
loaned Dan Countryman the first of
October.

OUT TO WIN THE TROPHY
BUTTE HAS THREE CRACK BOWL
ING TEAMS.

Butte, Feb. 25.-LOcal bowlers and,
in fact, tenpin rollers throughout the
state, are actively at work getting
ready for the coming state tourna-
ment, which will be held in Butte be-
ginning March "a and continuing
three, and possibly four, days. The
tournament will be for three-men
teams and will include entries from
Butte, Anaconda, Red Lodge, Miles
City, Billings and Missoula. Butte will
enter three teams and each of the
other cities one team making total
OF nine teams in the tournament The
Butte teams will include one from
each of the lacol alleys, namely the
Pfister, the Thornton and the Lodge.
The personnel of the Thornton team
will be the same as it has been during
the present season, the members be-
Sheehan, Van Ellis and Ellis. The
men have all worked we'll together
and are the strongest trio of bowlers
at the Thornton alleys. Sheehan and
| Ellis were members of the champion
ship team of last year and aided ma
terially in winning the laurels which
| made the team famous throughout the
state. They were also members OF
| the team which tried conclusions with
| the All-American trio here last fall
The personnel of the Lodge team will
| oh 0rf1 on6 tho
who are to be members of the Pf1ster
team are now fighting for positions
| The greatest local interest in the
| coming tournament would appear to
| be centered at the Pfster alleys
where 10 candidates have presented
| Themselves for the three players on
| the team to represent the alleys
Those 10 candidates are working hard
almost nightly and, though several
are lower than the three high men
| their interest has not diminished, all
| hoping to make good averages before
| the tournament closes. AS matter
now stand, j. S. Mckinley leads the
| candidates., with the remarkable
average of 2O3 22-35 in S5 games. His
total pins is 1927, and in the 35 games
he has lost but 10. A close second to
Mckinley is Perham, who in 30 games
has total of $40, an average of 190
In his 80 games he has come off vic
torious 16 times. For third place
| Tonrey and Ellison are nip and tuck,
| with the former leading by a fraction
Both have bowled 40 games and
| though Tonrey has won 25 of his
games, against % games credited to
Ellison, the latter has done better
comparatively on total pins and is
but Is pins behind on the total. The
total of Tonrey is 7,455, and that OF
Ellison is 7,440. Thus the averages OF
the two bowlers are but 15-40, or 3s, OF
a per cent apart Tonrey's average
being 1856 15-40. The difference is
scarcely sufficient to boast of.

Another Account.

Charleston. w. Va, Feb. 25.-At
Stamford City, in Raleigh county, at
dawn this morning battle took place
between the joint posses of Deputy
United States Marshal Cunningham
and Sheriff Cook on one side and riot
ing miners on the other, as result
of which three miners were killed,
several mortally wounded and num-
Der of men on both sides more or
less seriously hurt.
The trouble grew out of an attempt
to arrest "a miners for violating the
blanket injunction issued by Federal
Judge Jones last summer.
Deputy Marshal Cunningham went to
Atkinsville, a mining town in Raleigh
county to arrest men charged with
violating the injunction. He was sur
rounded b. large party of miners
armed with Winchesters, who order
ed him to leave the place, an order
which he quickly obeyed.
Sheriff Cook at the same time at
lempleu W IHdhe SoAIc dilcSto uiiuOi
process issued by the state court,
and was treated in a like manner.
Cunningham returned to this city
and reported to the marshal and the
district attorney that he could do
noth1g without large force, and
then only at imminent risk of precip-
itating a bloody conflict.
He was instructed to return with
men sufficient to serve the process
given him and to do it at all hazards.
Before Cunningham returned to At
kinsville, however, Marshal John K.
Thompson and S. G. Burdette, attor-
!. ney for the United Mineworkers, went
to the scene, spending most of Sunday
and Monday there. They found ev-
erything quiet and the rioters having
withdrawn from the immediate neigh
borhood and crossed the river. going
to a camp 600 strong near the Big y
mine on the north side.
Thompson and Burdette came home
Tuesday morning and Cunningham
and a strong posse went from here to
make arrests.
When Atkinsville was reached the
federal forces were Joined by Sheriff
Cook and his posse, the coal compan-
les furnishing some guards, and the
deputy and sheriff found themselves
in command of about hundred we'll
armed and determined men.
The rioters had recrossed tthe river
on Tuesday and were parading up
and down the various coal works.
They numbered from $50 to 200 men
and many of them were armed with
Winchesters They intimidated min
ers at work, driving away the guards
OF the mines and even went so far as
to disarm one guard and force him to
march at the head of their process
sion.
Emboldened by their success they
attempted to burn down bridge on
the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad over
a gulch. and threatened destruction
of other property. Last night they
went into camp near Stamford city
This morning about daybreak. the
officers and their combined posses
surprised the rioters in their camp
and called on them to surrender. The
reply was shot.

HOUSE EASILY.

Helena, Feb. 25.-Owlng to the
stubborn opposition of Gangner OF
Deer Lodge, no bronze tablet COM
memorating the deeds of the Montana
volunteers in the Philippines will be
placed in the capital building. The
rules of the house provide that no bill

ing the tablet in the capi ,ol.
On suspension Of the rules Hef-
ferlin managed to in nksoduce two bills

several cities. One is to enable
citizens to extend boulevarding,
sewerage and other systems by Great

other is to enable cities to establish
garbage systems.
The appropriations committee, un-
der the constitutional provisions al
lowing bills for the support OF the
government to be introduced at any

aries of the supreme court commits
sion, it's clerks and its Office expenses.
Bever's bill annexing portion OF
Fergus county to Yellowstone county
was the only measure put through
third reading and final passage this
morning. Ii went through with little
opposition.
The only events of importance in
the senate this morning were debates
on two reports presented by the jul
dietary committee. One recommend
ed that the bill providing for the sub
mission of constitutional amend
ment on the eight-hour law and the
unemployment of children in mines.
be indefinitely postponed.
In committee of the whole the SEN
ate recommended for passage Senator
Whipple's bill for the adoption OF the
Torrens land title system; Senator
Murray's bill relating to the land
grant for the state normal school;
Senator Anderson's bill licensing ex-
press companies; Senator Meyers Dill
for the adoption of the Bertillon sys-
tenn of measuring criminals, aud Sen
ator Hoffman's bill relating to the
charges made by railroads.
The other was that house bill NO.
1856. Beaudry's bill, to go back to the
fee system of paying justices OF the
peace, be indefinitely postponed.
On both of these measures Kennedy
presented minority reports recon-
mending that they be concurred IN.

stance was adopted and the majority
report rejected on votes OF IA TO Q
and Is to 6, respectively.
