Flu Showing Up
But MiIder Form

Butte, Jan. 26.-That the influenza
epidemic III d mild form has reached
THIS section OF the stale is evidenc
ca from the fact that IN Butte Today
eight cases were reported. Warnings
as to precautions are being issued by
medical authorities. and steps are
being taken to keep the city free
from debris that might have ten
uency to spread disease germs.
With a mild temperature prevail
ing work was commenced this after
noon washing the paved streets
through the business section, but that
effort was checked early tonight
when considerable wet snow fell. No
alarm is felt here over the presence
of influenza but cases are being quar-
antined as rapidly as found.
Report tonight from Twin Bridges
is to the effect that influenza has ap-
peared there suddenly. At Pageville,
community five miles from Twin Bird
ges, a number of mild cases have been
reported among children. In Twin
Bridges influenza is reported at the
state orphans home, including the
children of the home superintendent
AS result Superintendent Oberg has
sent out notice that the home is un-
der quarantine
The report says also that with re-
cent warm weather the big snow
drifts which piled UP in December
have melted rapidly. Chinook winds
have helped melt the snow, and as
result cattle and horses that perish
ed during the extreme cold weather
in December are being disclosed in
greater numbers than had been anti
cipated.
Water from melting snow has ap-
peared rapidly on the flats to the
south side of Butte and unless drain
age soon is provided, it may be inn
possible to operate some of the street
car lines in that locality.

cases thus far reported are of very
state board of health said today that
while the board was on the alert and
plans for fighting the disease had
gone forward very rapidly, there were
really but a few cases in Montana.
The reason given for the preparation
is the increase in the number of cases
inin the eastern cities recently and
the apparent spread toward the west.

they really got himi'' was the ques-
ton asked all over the city and many
people feared that there might have
been mistake before the telegram
from Chief O'Hare reached the city
just before noon.
Leaving Detroit at 1875 this after
noon, Chief o Hare and Detective Rock
will reach Chicago with Loveday late
tonight. It is possible that Loveday
will be back in the Kenosha lookup be-
fore midnight but it is more probable
that he will be brought up from Chica-
go early on Saturday.
Members of the Kenosha police de-
partpent were in high spirits today as
a result of the recapture of the slippery
prisoner. They had no details of the
matter but they were assured that it
was Loveday and that was enough for
them. Loveday was identified by men
at the Chicago detective bureau from
pictures sent from Detroit of group
Of men who had been arrested in con-
nection with the "feud" war in that
city. William Goodwin, the veteran
Pinkerton man who has been closely
connected with the case, was called in
and he made the Identification positive.
The Kenosha police officers had been
notified that Loveday had been taken
before Goodwin had made the identifi-
cation. 1t is thought that after leav-
ing Kenosha Loveday made his way to
Canada and that he stayed there until
a short time ago when he slipped back
into Detroit.
District Attorney Fisher declared
this afternoon that he would be ready
to put Loveday on trial the minute he
reached Kenosha. 'fMaybe he will
plead guilty was the suggestion of
the district attorney. The warrant for
Levedsy, sworn out ny Secretary Meis-
ner of the police department, charges
him with the murder of Anton Pinga-
tore and it was made out after the con-
fesion Of Carlson.
Mrs. Earl Loveday is said to be at
Clearwater, Florida.

MRS. MARY KELLY CARR
DIES SUDDENLY TO-DAY

Mrs. Mary Kelley Carr, aged 60
years the wife of P. H. Carr, died very
suddenly of apoplexy at her home at
558 Pomeroy street early this morning.
While she had been in i'll health for
some time, death came Unexpectedly
this morning, following an attack Of
the disease.
Mrs. Carr was born in PottsvilIe, pa,
in 1859, and had lived in the east until
after her marriage. The family moved
to Keno8ha more than thirty years ago
and during her residence here Mrs. Carr
had made many friends to whom her
sudden death comes as personal sor-
row. She is survived by her husband
and eight children. No arrangements
have yet been made in regard to ths
funeral services and announcement oa
them will be made later.

suspicious and ran away. The detec-
tives commandered a Ford automobile
and followed him and they were forced
to bring their revolvers into play be-
fore Loveday surrendered. eff I had
happened to have a gun they never
would have taken meo was Loveday s
comment to Chief O'Hare and Detec-
tive Rock. At the room two revolvers
were found in room of Loveday and
his room mate who was more or less
responsible for the arrest told the Off
GERS that Loveday had asked him to
join him for q stick-up" job and
that he had told the land lady.
o'Hare Took No Chances
The Chief took no chances with Love-
day on the homeward trip and Loveday
offered no resistance Of any kind He
talked freely Of everything but the
third man in the party. Once he
reused up to deny the report that he
was guilty of having murdered a po-
lice officer in Chicago two years ago..
1t had been said that he murdered
Police Officer Burke - "No I didn It"
Loveday told the officers in charge of
him. 81 never had anything to do with
the killing of any police officer but the
man in Kenosha.
Loveday went into length telling the
story of the robbery of the Brass Com
pany vaults and the shooting of Pinga-
tore but this portion of his confession
was practically identical with the sign
ed statement made by Carl O. Carlson
at the time of his sentence. The Off
Gals had not given up hope Of getting
the identity Of the third man in the
party out Of Loveday and he was to be
questioned further this afternoon and
tonight and before the hearing on
Monday. eve expect to dispose of
the Loveday case entirely Tuesday,"

ALDERMAN TURKELSON
TO TALK TO KIWANIANS
VIII Explain All About Main Street
Bridge and What Should Be Ine to
Remedy Conditions 0 nThursday.


ttConditions concerning the main
street bridge and what it means if they
continue as they are" will be the
subject of talk which Alderman liner
r. Turkelson will give before the XII
wants club at its weekly luncheon next
Thursday.
The same proposition is before the
people of Kenosha now that was be-
fore them last year." said Alderman
Turkelson this morning. "The voters
decided in building a new bridge and
Strengthening Main street, but the
amount they voted, 100000 was not
enough to do the work and the coun-
Gil did not feel justified in shoulder
ing the responsibility of saddling
5000, 900 more upon the tax payers with
out their consent.
Bids for doing the same work the
people decided to have done before,
will be opened on March 5, and the
committee wants the matter properly
placed before the people. The talk be-
fore the Kiwanis club Thursday will
explain conditions as they are now,
what they will be if nothing is done
to remedy them, and what we should
do to get a good and safe bridge.
