THE BUTTE IN TER MOUNTAIN
VOL. XXIII. NO. 143. BUTTE, MONTANA, TUESDAY EVENING. DECEMBER 29, 1903. PRICE FIVE CENTS.
ITKE FORTUNE
OUT OF THE
DEVITT
Looting Is Worth $52,500
a Week to Violators
of the Injunction.
HEINlE SEHDS REPLY
Tells Butte & Boston He
Is Not Afraid of Any
Court Contempt.
Further inspections and surveys of the
looting of the Michael l)evitt claim by the
employes of F. A. llcinze show that the
work is now going on with all speed. Com
plete data concerning the trespass has hanot
yet been compiled, but the inspectors esti
mate, roughly, that about 15o tons of ore
a day are being taken by the Heinze people
out of the Michael lDevitt and hoisted
through the Rarus shaft.
Some of this is known to be 40 per cent
ore. Estimating that it averages only 20
per cent, however, which gives it a value
of about $5o a ton, the lootintg operations
are producing daily ore worth $7,500.
The trespass, therefore, gives the tres
passers an income of $Sa,5ro a week.
Worth a Fortune.
With 31 days in Decembler and the men
working every day, according to custom,
the value of ore taken out this month
will be $2S3a.oo. The value to the tres
passers of delay in the findings can he seen
at a glance.
Mr. Heinze now declares that he is not
responsible for the looting of the ore. On
December 24 the Butte & Boston company
forwarded notice to Mr. Heinze that min
ing was going on in the Michael Devitt in
violation of the injunction issued by Judge
Knowles, and requesting him to see that
these operations cease.
Mr. Ileinze's reply was received yester
nlay. In it lie denied all responsibility for
the work being done, either personally or
by the Montana Ore Purchasing company.
In the letter he expresses a desire not to
be involved in the matter, but says he is
not afraid of contempt proceedings, for he
would "surely be acquitted."
Court Could Not See It.
It will be remembered that recently at
lcelena, before Judge Beatty, lleinze mnale
soime similar disclaimer of responsibility.
At that time the court apparently did not
accept his view of the responsibility, but
ordered him peremptorily to do the things
conlnianded inl the order thell n ade.

AT EXECUTION
SIX SHOCKS NEEDED TO KILL NEGRO
WHO DIES IN ELECTRIC CHAIR
IN NEW YORK PRISON.
STRANGE GURGLING IN
THROAT OF SUFFERER
Said Electrocution Was Perfect at the
First Shock, Although Six in All Were
Given-White Executed for the
Murder of a Farmer.
BY AS.OtIA 'IEI PRESR.
Albany N. Y., Dec, z9.---Frank White,
a negro, was put to death in the electric
chair at the state prison 'here today for
the murder of George Clare, a farmer of
Scria. by sthoting. Six contacts, each
of 1.74o volts of 7', a tperts, 'ere alplle l
hefoe White was ptronunced dead. After
the fourth contact a strange gurgling in
his throat made the Ihysicians step back
and horrilied the spectators.
The contact was quickly repeated, but
still the stethloscope recorded cardiac ac
tionl, and two llmore coltacts were givten.
)During the second cotntact the head
electrodes lashed brilliantly and there
was an odor of burning hair.
The executiotter said it was the sponge
beneath the electrode. Ile adljusted it
more tightly before the next shock.
Among those who made a test with the
stethoscope was I)r. U. I. Stein of Huf
falo, and he reported that the heart had
not ceased to Ieat. When he had resumedtl
his seat in the front row and the fifth
contact was turned on, White suddenly
pitched forward and fell to the flour in
a swool.
State Electrician 1)avis, in charge of
tlte execution, explained the gurgling in
White's throat by saying that he held his
breath for a moment't after the first con
tact, and it was simply the air escaping
fromt his lungs. lie declared tthat White
was practically dead after the first con
tact.
White was about 25 years of age. lie
Ihad worked for Clare and murdered hitm
for his m:oney.

Little Doubt That the United States Is
Expecting Trouble With Colombia
Over Panama.
Portland, Ore., Dec. 2q.-A Washington
dispatch says the United States govern
mlent is prepared to mlove an army to
Panamta. Today the army department
issued orders to the First, Fiftieth and
Twenty-fourth artilleries, now stationed
at the Presidio at San Francisco, to pre
pare to proceed to Pana.ta.
At the same time the lighth battery
field artillery, now stationed at Vancouver
barracks, was given similar orders.
Orders were also scent to Troops A, B, C
and I) of the Ninth cavalry at Monterey,
Cal., and to Troops 1, K, I. and M, also
of the Ninth at the Presidio. The Fif
teenth infantry at Molnti.rey, the Ninc
teenth infantry at Vancotiuver barracks,
the Tenth infantry at the conton
tment at San Francisco, the Sixteenth
infantry at Fort Sterling, N. Y., and Fort
McPherson, Ga., were also ordered in
readiness to move on Panama.
Lieutenant Colonel Charles Shaller, who
is a member of the general staff of the
army and an expert on fortifications, has
been ordered to Panama to inspect the
fortifications and to have his report in
Washington before General Reyes of the
Colombian army, who is now here, can re
turn. These orders for preparations were
issued today because the general staff has
been informed that Colombia can land
troops upon the isthmus nmuch more easily
than was heretofore believed.
General MacArthur will have charge of
all movements on the Pacific coast.
FLOURISH WEAPONS
CONSTABLES GO TO SERVE AN AT
TACHMENT AND STIR
UP A RIOT.
Constables Boulett and Harnan went to
the Merchants' restaurant today to serve
an attachment on the proprietor, George
Castra. The latter rese.ted the service
and grabbed a huge knife and made for
Boulett.
The officer ducked to his all-fours and
galloped out of the place and Castra was
in the act of using the knife on him
when Officer Harnan drew his revolver
and persuaded the irate restaura.t keeper
to desist.
The officer went to the county attorney's
office and swore to a complaint, which was
filed in Justice Colligan's court, charging
Castra with assault in the third degree.
MAY BE MADE A MONOPOLY
Moscow, Dec. 29.-The government is
considering making the sale of tea and
sugar a state monopoly, as proposed by M.
Witte, while finance minister. There is
much opposition to the proposal on the part
of the tea trade and the grocers, but the
growing needs of the treasury and the ex
haustion of other resources, as pointed out
in M. Witte's last budget, are believed in
well-informed circles to make the adop
tion of the proposition probable.
