say are members Of the Summerield gang.
They arrested them and were about to
take them out Of the saloon when n dozen
men got in front Of the detectives and
barred the way.
-On what charge are you cops arresting
those fel'ows?- said one of the crowd.
None Of Your business, said Frye, but
they are vagrants and TO the station house

Frye and Hean drew their revolyers
and used them as clubs They were in
danger of being knocked down and of
losing their prisoners when Hearn shouted:

You haven't got much time, either
The crowd dropped back and the detec-

FRYE and Hearn went hack later TO see II
they could get the men who had interfered
with them. The barroom was empty.
Capt. Flood announced last night that
he intends 10 make the saloonkeepers OF
the precinct help him clear it Of cheap
crooks. wire tsppers. tin horn gamblers
and bunco specialists who have fed the
Tenderloin.
"Saloonkeepers know these fellows to a
man said he. They understand that
these crooks do not loaf around their gin
mills for any good; therefore they've got
to keep them out or | will stir up lot OF
trouble. Ever since the Tenderloin got too
hot for grafters they have made this pre-

running on the top floor. No arrests were
made but n telephone was contlscated

NEITHER SIDE SEEKS JUSTICE
SO Montana Judge Declares In the Helnze-
Amalgamated Litigation.

BUTTE, Mon, Feb. 8-There was gen.
eral surprise in one OF the district courts
to-day when George NJ Bourquin, one Of
the new Judges, declared impatiently that
Heinze and the Amalgamnted company
are not looking for justice in their litiga-
ton and that II they had justice they would
get 1t through the criminal department OF
the court.
The explosion was the result Of n dis
qualifying affidavit filed against the Judge
by Heinze charging him with bias and preju-
dice because the Judge ruled against him
in matter on Saturday and intended TO
proceed with hearing to-day on a motion
TO strike Heinze's answer from the files
In suit for S.. 900 damages. instituted
by the Boston and Montana company. be-
cause he refused to testify in the case when
summoned before notary.
The Judge said the affidavit OF disquai-
fication was filed too late under the law :,
but the Amalgamated attorneys did not
want 10 60 on with the hearing. 1t was
then that Judge Bourquin gave vent TO
his impatience He said
The Court is not anxious to try this case
The general understanding Of us all-at
least feel 80, and II is the general impress
sion--is that none OF their suits is intended
10 be tried in the long run, anyway The
Court Is not anxious to become involved
in this litigation, even as a Court. | am
inclined to believe. to speak calmly and
dispassionately as Judge, that neither
OF the parties Of this action, in either OF
their proceedings against each other, is
very anxious to secure justice. In fact
I am sometimes half inclined TO the opinion
that If they want justice they must seek
