ment of all taxes and charges for such

would be full investigation of the
charges. lie intimates that there was
enough evidence of corruption To warrant
an investigation, and that even bribery
and doodle had been resorted TO- He ex-
planned that these matters had but re-
Gently come TO light, and that these notices
were the necessary hrst steps. and that un-
less needed proper suits would be lled.
Mr.. Gay will be assisted in these cases by
Judge l.. vi. Lane, a prominent lawyer Of
Missouri, who is now in Port Angeles.
The common council has extended the
time of Rockman's franchise for electric
lights to the LIST of February, at which

GOV. LauGHToN,s ENEMY IN JAIL.
Lawyer Thompson OF Albany. ~. ".
Arrested for Enrcinr n WILL

Albany. y. y. Dec ia.--W. W. Thomp-
son. the lawyer who figured couspicuously
IN an escapade with his handsome tyne
writer. Bertha Denton. about year ago,
and lied TO the Pacific coast, and who also
attracted some notice from the curious
letters he sent To Secretary Noble because
of his dismissal from the pension bureau,
is a prisoner in Maiden Lane Jail, in default
OF $4,000 bail. The arrest was the result of
information laid before Police Justice Gut
mann by District Attorney Riley. Thomp-
son was attorney for the family. of Thomas
Denny, which consisted of Thomas
Denny, his brother James and one
daughter. James died June .. leaving an
estate valued at $4,000. Besides Thomas
and James Denny. there are several
brothers living in Ireland. October %,
Thompson offered the will for probate,
which was admitted.
This purported to have been drawn on
the day James Denny died. IL is in the
handwriting of Thompson, who is q wit
ness TO IT. and 1t bequeaths all the estate of
the dead man to his brother Thomas.
The district attorney is led TO believe
that the will was written by Thompson
two days after the death Of James Denny.
Thomas Denny is an old man. and from
him Thompson had received a specific
agreement for 5000 for taking care of the
estate for one year. When the instruments
was admitted to probate Thompson swore
that he had known James Denny since
September |, 1855, but in the statement he
prepared for the press today he declares
he never saw the dead man prior 10 tho
drawing of the will.
Thompson is the lawyer who recently
flooded The mails with an indecent attack
on Governor Laughton, of Washington.
