AGAINST BATES

SWER FOR ILLEGAL RE-
LEASE OF PRISONER.
Special to The Daily Missoulian.

Butte, Feb. 12.--Detective Z. Bates
will have to answer the charge of al
lowing Jean Dubois, prisoner con-
fined in the city Jail, to escape serv-
ing a $50 days sentence in violation
of a state law and city ordinance,
according to the report of the police
commission made to the mayor today
as a result of the informal investisl-
ton held yesterday.
The police board met at II O'Clock,
and, after going thoroughly into the
evidence, reached this conclusion. In
its report the board asks that the
chief Of police prefer formal charges
against Bates in order that the COM
mission may take the case up legally
and make the proper recommends
tions. The board calls the attention Of
the mayor to unsatisfactory con 1'ticns
existing in regard to getting charges
against officers before the board and
asks that the chief in future bring all
plants to the attention Of the
commission officially and promptly.
Bates is out of town tonight.
