NORTH YAKIMA RESTRAINED.
The City Forbidden to Interfere With .
Sewer Contract,


Richard Schmidt, formerly superintendent OF
sewers Of this city, yesterday brought an i'm
portant suit against the city of North Yakima,
IN (which lie secured a temporary restraining
order forbidding the government OF that city to
interfere with his contract for the construction
oil sewerage system there
1t is seldom that a suit is brought in one
county against a municipal corporation located
in another. but this is explained by the fact
that the judge of the superior court of Yakima
county Is out of the state aud that by the plain
tim ex parte statement, it appears that great
and irreparable injustice would be done him
unless some court should grant relief.
The complaint sets forth that in December,
1s9l. the plaintiff, Richard Schmidt, secured a
contract from the municipal corporation of
North Yakima to put in a sewer system there
upon plans and specifications which had al
ready been accepted by the local authorities.
part of the plaintiff duties was to place bonds
In the sum of $4,000 for the work. He alleges
that he carried out this part OF the agreement:
that he placed the bonds, sold them, secured the
proceeds and placed the same in the First Ma
t!onai bank OF North Yakima. He alleges, fur
ther. that the defendant delayed the execution
OF parts of the contract that caused delay in the
work adding greatly to the cost thereof. tie
SAYS that n times they kept his materials from
him, and that the greatest act of injury
done to him when. on june 16 last, the city
council, without reason. justification or excuse,
declared by ordinance tha: his contract
was forfeited aud PROFIT hited him from going on
with the work. Tho plaintiff then proceeds at
great length 10 rec.te the various ways in which
the action OF the municipal authorities of North
Yakima has damaged him.
He prays Tor 4 temporary injunction, also, to
restrain the city OF North YAKIMA from missp-
rroprlatiug the funds now on hand in the First
National bank of North Yakima, the balance Of
tue bond fund, and he also seeAs perpetual in
Junction when the case shall come up for hear.

The matter came up before Judge Liehten-
berg, who granted a temporary restraining or
der aud set the hearing Of the application for a
temporary injunction for July ..

offered prizes for good boat race. They COM
plain that the prizes are being offered for races
among the sailors on the Charleston, which can
not possibly be of as much interest as q race be-

their boats to Tacoma and enter them in the

Big MONEY
Asked by Our Sailors Assaulted
i'm Valparaiso.
The Modest Little Sum of $l,-
3O5,OOO Demanded.

Lawyer Orr, of San Francisco, Has the
Claims of Twenty -Four-Saiior Hamil-
ton and Coal-Heaver Anderson Lead
with $3.50, 900 Each-wonder What
Portion He Expects to Get.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 16.--The state
department will be astonished when it
gets, in few days, the formal claim Of
the sailors on the Baltimore who were
wounded by the Valparaiso mob. Law
yer +. Allyn Orr has the cases of twen-
ty-four men, who were all wounded in
the streets of Valparaiso. They are
common sailors or coal beavers, but
they want big money for their rough
handling by the Chilians. Their COM
bined claims foot up 81, ,3o5, 900.
The largest sums are demanded by
Hamilton, sailor, and Anderson, coal
HEAVIER. They apply for $3.50, 1000 apiece.
Hamilton has three bad wounds and de.
clares there is still piece of a Chilian
dagger in the wound that refuses to
heal. Anderson is disabled by several
wounds, the most serious being in the
lung. Other claims vary from 800, ,000
TO $50, 900. When Mr.. Orr was asked
why these men, who had never had so
much in all their lives as one years in
terest OH the indemnity demanded, mako
such big claims, he said: I'VE don't
want to have any of the balance of the
indemnity that is to be paid go back to
Santiago. Chill may pay $4,000, ,000."
The lawyer did not add that he expects
a large portion of it.

such notoriety from her suit against the
late millionaire, William Sharon, whose
wife she claimed to be. She afterward
married Judge Terry, who had been her
counsel i'll the Sharon case. Terry was
afterward killed by Deputy United

in bed, and, with handkerchief folded
to resemble a speaking trumpet held to
her mouth, held imaginary conversations
with spirits. Friday night, while un-
guarded, she nearly escaped from the
house without any clothes on She sat
four hours perched upon bureau talk
ing to the spirits. To a Chronicle re-
porter, who saw her, she told what the
spirits said. She is attended by DR.. A.

of her insanity,
