BOW COURT
UPHELD IN DECREE
vO|D|NG MORTGAGE
High Tribunal Holds Estate
Not Liable to Granite
Alaska Company.

Helena, Oct. 19-(By The Associ-
ated Press. Judgment of the district
court in Silver Bow county cancelling
a mortgage held by the Granite
Alaska company on property of the
Noyes estate was affirmed by the su-
preme court Thursday morning.
The DAILY bank never appeared in
the suit. The action was brought by
the Noyes estate TO secure cancella-
ton OF a mortgage which it alleged
had been paid in full. The Granite
Alaska company, however. urged that
its president, T. J. Murray, had as
sumed liability as surety for the
Noyes estate on a promissory note for
$4,000 given by the estate to the
Penn Mutual Life Insurance company,
and that it was understood that the
mortgage in question was to stand.
| after payment of the original S25,0O0
note, as security to the Granite-Alaska
company for the payment of the obli-
CATION to the Penn Mutual company.
This action was the second appeal
in this case to the supreme court. In
the first the supreme court reversed
a judgment for the Noyes estate,
which had been issued following an
! order sustaining q demurrer to an
answer by the CHARACTERISTICS COM
/ peny. Whlle the tlrsc appeal was
pending, the Noyes estate secured
from the Penn Mutual Life Insurance
company a written release of L. j.
Murray from all liability on the
promissory note. When this release
was delivered to Murray. he sent a
letter to the officers of the estate de-
claring that the release was at
tempted to be made without consulta-
ton" by him and that he never gave
his consent to being released from his
liability.
The lower court in Butte ordered
the mortgage cancelled. The Granite
Alaska company appealed.

Helena, Oct. 19.-(By The Associ-
ated Press.)-Appeal of Joe b.. Reagin
of Treasure county, convicted of first
degree murder was denied by the SUI

ing Keller. and that the verdict should
not have been first degree murder.

SpeciaI TO The Tribune.

SpeCldI 10 1nt IIiOuhC'
Harlem. Oct. 19.-The continued fine
weather has been just what the farm
ers delight in for grain hauling and
they have been rushing their grain to
market as quickly as possible. The re
suit has been that all four elevators IN
Harlem have been filled.
Tuesday three elevators were filled,
but the Harlem Milling company man
aged to get a merchandise car that
night which had been unloaded here and
that made room for 1900 bushels more
of rye. Tuesday and Wednesday the
Equity elevator was still able to AXE
wheat owing to the fact that it has
double the capacity of the other ele-
vators. That house is filled now also
and the Great Northern is not able TO
offer much in the way of relief in fur
nishing cars.
Great Northern Agent Newcomer
| states that with the favorable weather
| prevailing farmers all over the system
are rushing their grain to market and
| that there cannot help but be a great
| car shortage under the best of condi-
tons. He cannot see much relief IN
sight to help out the local situation,
| only a car now and then as they are
| apportioned over the division to the
| various towns.
There is not only a shortage of grain
cars, but the acute shortage is in stock
| cars. Now is considered the time when
stock should be moving. Grain a be
! moved any time, but stock must GO
before the weather gets severe. More
than $50 stock cars are needed for
this station. 60 sheep cars, 800 grain
cars and almost that many hay ears
The Great Northern is paying particu-
lar attention to potatoes and fruit.

so More Feet May
Reach Oil Sands in
Winifred Location

Special to The Tribune.
Lewistown, Oct. 19.-The Jackson
Dome Oil company, drilling on the
Dorman Jackson ranch, some Is miles
east of LewistOwn. has reached a depth
of about 700 feet and it is found that
the log is practically identical with
that Of Soap Greek. The Ember sand.
60 feet thick, has just been drilled
through. Water was encountered and
this has now been cased off. The
company expects production in the
Tensleep sand.
Perhaps 30 feet of drilling will carry
the hole of the kansas-M0ntana at
Winifred to the base Of the Colorado
sand, where Manager w. T. Brown
expects to get production. Casing
has just been run at the well, the job
being completed Thursday afternoon,
and Mr.. Brown, who left the property
while this was being done, returned
to the well today.
Production Of 10 barrels has been
secured by the Pyramid company, a
local concern, drilling in section g.
1929. on the West Dome of Cat
Greek. the oil coming in at 800 feet
while the sand is not looked for at
less than 1900 feet or more. 1t is
thought that this production must
come from a stray sand or elseis
shale oil. In the latter event it would
indicate a big producer at greater
depth. The officers are going over
the ground Thursday.
