BUTTE, April 2S.-The only case OF
its kind In Montana, and probably in
America, developed here today when
G. w. Cockrell, prominent broker,
was arrested and taken to the county
jail to serve there a nine-year sentence

A. w. Dewitt. court stenographer,

is the man who means to keep Cockrell
who is more than 60. years of age, be-
hind the bars for the remainder of his
life. Dewitt gave Cockrell money to
invest in stocks, but before turning
it over, he placed it as coll ater al
for himself, on marginal specula.
tiOn and lost it. Dewitt sued. The
jury found Cockrell guilty and gave
Dewitt Judgment for the $4,000. But

plaintiff will pay his board. at the
rate of 50 cents per day, the defend ant

Good Demand For Wool.

BOSTON, April %. - Figures al
ready compiled in connection with the
textile situation in New England show
that the importations of wool through
Boston have thus far this month ex-
ceeded previous records for the month
OF April since 1897. The total for the
month to date has been in excess Of
10000, 900 pounds, of an estimated
value of s6,000,000. Last year the
importations for the entire month of
April were less than 1000, 900 pounds.
The local wool market is strong and
wool buyers are lively in bidding for
the new clip. The greatest activity is
in Wyoming, Montana and in western
Idaho. 1t is estimated that two.thirds
of the Montana clip has been con-
tracted for. Foreign woods are strong
and active. with Austr allan and South
American grades in great demand.
The former supplies are attracting the
greatest attention.

two score desert entries were made in
the vicinity of the holdings of the
Floweree Land and Cattle company.
The government inspectors made an
investigation and reported that the

Bringing Suit For Salary.

HELENA, April 29.-Four employees
of the state, Deputy State Treasurer
Lockhart, Assistant Superintendent
OF Public Instruction Hathaway, Sten.
ographer of the Supreme Court
Schneider, and Miss Luddy, stenog-
rapher In the Office of the secretary of
the bureau Of child and animal pro.
lection, have an interesting contro-
versy with the state board of examin.
ers as to what their salaries shall be
for TWO years. At the last session of
the Legislature appropri ations were
made for paying the salaries.of these
employees, which gives them an in.
crease over what they had been get
ting, in the case of some amounting
to 5000 year. The state board of
ex aminers has notified the state audi
tor not to issue warrants in!conformi.
ty with the amount OF the appropria-
tion, but on the basis of what the
salaries have been in the past.
The state board holds that where
the law does not create an Office and
fix the salary, the state board has the
power to fix the compens alton, and
that is what it has done in the case of
the employees named.
A. G. Schneider, supreme court
stenographer, made an applica cation to
the supreme court today for a writ Of
mand anus directed to the state audi.

he should not issue him q warrant for

different places at the same time.
