CAR SHORTAGE WARNINGS;
DANGER IS NOT Eminent

Heavy advance shipments oil
grain, live stock and lumber over
the western divisions OF the Great
Northern railway have caused the
officials of that railroad to issue a
special warning TO the business
men of Butte that a car shortage
threatens the northwest, according
to. q report received by The Press
from Butte today.
So far danger of a car shortage
throughout this district west Of the
mountains is not imminent, accord
ing to the statements of Superin-
tendent Steele of the Great North
ern here. this afternoon.
We have received no warning
of any impending shortage on cars
here" Mr.. Steele said. Through
this district the Great Northern is
well equipped to handle any and
all shipments being offered IT..
Shipments are becoming good both
ways through Washington, but ev-
erything is moving freely, and so
far as we can figure from present
indications, there need be no alarm
felt over the car supply.
This is the first I have heard
that shortage threatened the
mountain divisions of the reed, but
we would not necessarily be af-
fected here by a shortage existing
there. Most of the wheat from this
part of the country and from here
on west is going to the Pacific
coast, part of it for shipment to
the orient, but most OF 1t for mill
ing right in the coast cities. Much
lumber is moving east at the pres
ent time and conditions at the pres
ent give promise OF good shipments
right along, and considerable live
stock is being shipped east, but not
enough to seriously affect the car
cuDDly."

PING, SAID JUDGE

"You great big clumsy hulk, who

and family. would give you q
horse whipping If the state laws
provided such punishment" Such
was the scathing remark directed
by Judge Mann of police court to
H. c. Butler, on trial for drunken
ness.
Butler was arrested by Officer
Digger after it had been alleged
that he had beaten and frightened
his wife and family in his drunken
condition till one of his daughters,
had tainted several times through
fear. He was sentenced to 80 days
on the rock pile, together with the
assessment of a fine of 500 and
costs.
