THEIR TRIAL BEGUN.
TWENTY-FIVE fGnr b'Alene Miners lrraigned
for Contempt Of Court.

BOISE. Idaho, Aug. 3.-One of the most
remarkable criminal trials that has ever
occurred in this State was begun to-day in
the United States District Court. 1t is the
case of % Ceur d'Alene miners who are
arraigned for contempt of court in having
violated an injunction OF United States
District Judge Beatty restraining them from
interfering with the working Of certain
mines in CHur the d'Alene district.
They are charged with having partici-
pated ia riots by which many lives were
lost and much property destroyed. thus
placing them selves in contempt of court.
Proceedings to-day consisted Of argument
upon a demurrer of the defense. 1t was
oYerrued by the court. The Judge also re-
fused to entertain plea OF abatement that
was lied The latter sets up that since a num-
Der of the defendants are foreigners and
Others citizens of different States, the court
had no jurisdiction 10 issue an Injunction
against ihem. The Judge gave the defense
permission TO incorporate this and other
points raised in the plea in the answer,
which must be filed by 10 O'Clock tomorrow.
The defense IS represented by Patrick
RedGv of San Francisco and J. b. Hawley
of Boise. while United States District At
t0rney Wood, Judge ". b. Hepburn, Judge
A lbert Hogan and J. +. Crosthwaite of the
Department Of Justice are on the prosecu-
ton.
All the principal mine-owners and man.
ayers of the C9ur q Alenes with an army
of witnesses are here or on the way.
1t is expected that the teStim ony will be
sensational.

JUDGMENT FOR DEFENDANT

Judge Prewett Says the Coultervills and 70
semitic Company Has No Grievance.
SACRAMENTO. Aug. 3-Judge Prewett Of
Placer has rendered a decision in the case
of the Coulterville and Yosemite Turnpike
Company vs.. The State of California.
In 1872 the Commissioners of the Yosemite
Valley granted the plaintiff the privilege of
constructing a turnpike toll-road within
the limits of the valley. In 1874 tie Legis-
lature granted the right-of-way to the
Yosemite Turnpike Company to construct a
tOll-road over the Yosemite grant. on the
nOrtherly side of the MERGED River. Plain
tiff alleges that the privilege extended to
that corporation was an exclusive one, and
that the construction of q rival road COM
pletely ruined its business and destroyed
the value of the property.
The plaintiff, therefore, sought relief from
the Legislature, and that body passed an
act authorizing the Coulterviile ana Yo-
semitic Turnpike Company TO sue the State.
Suit was brought against the State for
I $4,000 damages and the case came I'D
before Judge Prewrtt sitting in Depart
ment Of the Superior Court Of this county
on June l last. The case was vigorously
contested and WAS taken under adYisement
Judge Prewett has fled his findings and
a very extended decision. He decides that
the act OF March 81, 1891, authorizing the
suit, is unconstitutional aud void, because
1t violates those provisions Of the cunsttu-
ton directed against special legislation
The court holds that plaintiff did not have
any exclusive franchise; thai, therefore. its
rights could not be invaded oy rival CON-
pany, and that it has no grievance. Judg-
ment Is rendered for defendant.
The morning call., 1892-08-04

regarding the island should be placed at the
disposal of the correspondent. THIS in
formation. when collected. was found to
consist for the most part of history Of the
island and the Attorney Generals opinion,
together with some diplomatic correspond
ence.
1t APPEARS that finally. in 1859. our Com
missioner. or Minister TO Hawali. was IN
structed to lay the matter before the Minis
ter of Foreign Affairs of that country ana
have it definitely settled. This was done
and our Minister, in note TO The STATE De-
partment, said that the Hawaiian Minister
of Foreign Affairs frankly acknowledged
the Justice of the claim of the United states
and conceded the island TO her. LII appears
that the Americans were hrst 10 land on tne
island, but soon afterwaTf abandoned IL.
Some wears after this an Hawaiian shlp-of-
war planted flag tnere anu cIalheu INC
island for the King.
The Attorney General of the United States
in his opinion said, however, that this
'empty ceremony" went for nothing and
that the island must have been ac-
tualy occupied and left in occupation
before it could be rightfully held as
appertaining to the country In question.
Some time after this visit OF the Hawaiian
vessel. the Pacific Guan0 Company sent the
ship Palestine to Johnston Island. The
Americans were put in possession and re-
manned for several years. Comparatively
little Is known by the State Department as
to the recent history OF the island. 1t the
Americans have been in constant possession.
or II they were in occupancy when the
British ship seized it, there would be no
doubt as to It's ownership; but If ii had
been abandoned by the United States, it
any foreign power. The whole matter VIII
probably hinge on this point. The State
Department officials say they have no ofh-
