who ever framed brief, and others.
No mining district in the great West
presented finer field for the exercise
Of their INTELLECTUALLY mining claim
whose title was free from some cloud.
The fiercest contests which ever Oc-
Cured in any courts characterized the
litigation in the District Court Of Lin
coin county, of which Phoebe was the
county-seat. The purchase of juries
and witnesses perjuring themselves
were ordinary occurrences, and were
practiced with impunity. The most re-
markable instance Of this character was
in the celebrated mining case known as
the RAYMOND & Ely, wherein the
Hermes, a fictitious mining claim, was
claimed possession by reason OF priori-
ty of location. The Hermes purported
10 be a location made some years be-
fore by some Mormons on one Of their
trading visits to Panaca and the Muddy.
On the discovery Of the rich mine
raj in the Raymond 4 Ely q
scheme was devised whereby the pur-
chasers, Hsggin & Lewis, were to be
suchred out Of the mine. The plan
was conceived by an attorney in Phoebe,
Who laid the matter before other capt.
talists, who recognized its feasibility
and resolved to carry it into execution.
Accordingly the usual preliminariss
were inaugurated and the suit CON-
menced. The most eminent attorneys
| in San Francisco were employed to assist
local counsel on either side. The case
Was tried before Judge Fuller and
OCCUPIED THREE WEEKS.

SEDALIA, Mo, March 81. The situation,
Tuesday morning, was fully as exciting as
it was Monday, which was the most exciting
this town has seen since the war On Sunday
afternoon the company sent out conductors,
eng ineers, firen,en and brakemen to points
along the line where their trains were side
ira ked, to resume charge and st4ft them
once more toward their destination. One Of
these trains was captured here, Monday
and three of the who captured it
w.re arrested, but subsequently discharged,
the court holding it had no jurisdiction
The men were at once rearresied on bench
warrants issued by Judge Strother, of The
circuit court, who convened special term
of court 70, the purposa, and held the men
in $! 800 each to answer at the
regular term for contempt in dis
obtY ing the injunction of the court
This acton has only increased pubic
anxiety There have been no violent dem
onstt ations yet The alleged threat made
by Fred iage, leader of the strike here, that
there would be bloodshei before the trouble
is settled is frequently quoted. The strikers
feel that they have been jugglel with, and
| this greatly increases the gravity of tha sit
uaton IL is reported that the company
has promised all brakemen and firempn who
would 90 to work that the conductors an
| engineers should he discharged AMI

men. however, say they will not be deceived
by such promises, ami promise to stand by
the knights till some reliable order comes
from headquarters Chairman Irons is
here, but has sued no order yet and will
say nothing of what his intentions are. He
was much disgruntled by Powderly's dis

here has assumed a decidedly serious aspect,
and a bloody conflict between the strikers
and the police is believed to be inevitable
Tuesday morning freight train was sent
out under police protection, but when near

strikers turned a switch and ditehed

surrender, but they reused, fire was opened
upon them, and Dennis Noonan, one of the
strikers shot, but not fatally wounded. His

greatly excited and threaten to raise the
black flag and open carnival of bloodshed.
