Hearing of criminal cases was begun in Judge J. V. Dwyer's court yesterday morning when Ben Gomez, a Mexican, was charged with the murder of John Domengo at Divide last March 17, was arraigned. The other two accused, Fernando Mexicano and Joseph Rodriguez, are charged with the same crime and obtained a separate trial. In opening the case for the prosecution County Attorney Jackson, outlined to the jury what he expected to prove. The testimony of witnesses showed that Domengo was killed on the night of March 17 last at Divide, his death resulting in a blow on the head with an ax. On the evening of March 17 the three Mexicans and Domengo were drinking together at the book-room of a road-house near Divide. At midnight the three Mexicans, or one of them, Joseph Mexicano, was on a cot. he testified to the making of the plans and showed that the first case it was going to Divide. Three nights at this book-house and its interior at Divide. Frank Sierra, testified to having served the four men drinks in his place and stated that a quarrel had started among the Mexicans. Thomas Wheeler, section foreman at Divide, who found Domengo's body at Divide, told the jury that Domengo had heard someone at the section on the afternoon of March 16 that he had been striking a little that the three Mexicans were coming up the road in the direction further down the line; that at midnight he at night told him they were in the bunk-house and would not allow it; that Domengo left the hotel at about noon; a few minutes before midnight and said he was going in the bunk-house; that a few minutes later he heard a was about "Oh," as if he had been hurt, and that he could not assert it was Domengo's voice; that that morning he found Domengo near the bunk-house, dead on the ground with his head crushed. Wheeler identified a blanket, which he had picked up that morning near the tracks. Paul Silva, a Mexican, told the story of the events that took place on the night of March 16 while he was in bed in the book-house, he awoke, and heard the three Mexicans eating his food, but said nothing to them as he did not want any trouble; that he afterwards went to sleep again and awoke later to see the Mexicans and Domengo engaged in a quarrel. The Mexicans, he testified, told Domengo what he was doing and accused him of defending himself by holding the ax before him in a defensive attitude. The defense is conducted by Attorney Johnson and Nolan for Gomez. The jury chosen in the case is: F. A. Hayden, A. J. Cowan, L. A. Boland, P. O'Brien, George Franz, Victor Fuhan, William A. Hart, E.

The members of the so-called advertising committee, representing the business interests of this city, met recently at the Metals Bank and held an enthusiastic meeting, at which it was said the business interests of this city were ready to do to anything to cooperate with the health board. The following letter was sent yesterday to the various business men of Butte: "At the suggestion of the board of health this communication is addressed to you: "Until further notice kindly refrain from using the word 'influenza' or equivalent in your advertising, or radio phonograph concerts, or other places of assembly. "Do not permit crowds to congregate in your place of business. "That the health of the people of this community and the interests of the merchants generally are the same cause. The board of health has issued certain recommendations and prohibitions under the above quoted regulations. "If you and every other merchant will observe these fully, the advisory committee feels that no serious interference with your business need be apprehended, and believes your small business can be conducted along pleasant lines. "If the rules are not complied with, it is probable that all stores will be ordered closed altogether." Assurances of hearty support at the several stores were received. *"COMMITTEE ON PATROL INVESTIGATION ANSWERS"* --- # W. F.

Both men were on board a ship when the boat was dashed to pieces. ## Column 4 # PLEA FOR THE LITTLE STORES ### Mayor W. H. Maloney Appealed to in Regard to Closing Small Establishments After Six o'Clock and Sundays. Again has come up the idea of certain commercial interests trying to compel all stores, large and small, and merchants of the city, scattered about residential districts, to close their places of business at 6:00 o'clock in the evening and on Sunday and other irregular hours. Mayor W. H. Maloney was waited on in regard to this question and he promised to take it under consideration. The question has aroused a lot of interest and at the present time just what source it emanated there seems to be some doubt. The mayor maintains that there are a large number of citizens who depend on these little stores which are distributed handy in emergency after the larger establishments have closed, in order to regulate their business along the rules of law and regulation. ### Cities These Hours. The committee states that they are being crowded by other merchants. It is maintained that many a housewife finds herself short of some needed domestic article or something for dafé after 6 o'clock, and that the small stores all over the outlying districts, she can get it after 6:00 o'clock or even get it on a Sunday when the up-town stores are closed. The committee submitted that most of the little stores are being patronized by women with families to support, in the isolated nests, many of them residents of Butte for years. It is further added that there are not always facilities nearby to provide for the immediate members of the family. What business is done the that stores after 6 o'clock at night is emergency cases being served as a matter of necessity. An appeal has been made to the mayor yesterday, to enforce them, but these persons declared they do no damage to the organized rules of business hours, utilize the business from necessity and patronage, as in fact the bulk of their business. The subject that is all that as far as competition because of the flu is concerned, there are never more than one or two persons at a time in these little stores at a time. Some stores, it was suggested to the mayor, see no objection to hours of operation could be extended. --- # WILL OF A. H. MUELLER IS FILED FOR PROBATE Proceedings looking toward administering the estate of the late Arthur H. Mueller, president of the Silver Bow Brewing company, filed the will of the deceased, was taken up in the county court yesterday. Mr. Mueller died last [illegible] date of Oct. 9, 1918. One of the beneficiaries is Walter Mueller, a brother, who died yesterday. Kathryn Mueller, a daughter of Mr. Mueller's, is also a beneficiary. The will and schedule declares that the value of the estate is less than $1,000,000. --- # FALLS A WAR VICTIM JUST AT THE FINISH Word was received here yesterday that Rupert Austin, secretary of the Butte chamber of commerce, to the effect that a young man known here fell a victim at the front just after the signing of the armistice. The young man, who served with the 91st, Allen by's troops for three years, was transferred to the battlefield of France wounded [illegible] in action. --- # BACK LIKE A BOARD?
