BEFORE JUDGE ZANE.
The Wi.itmore Contempt Case Up Again
The Burt Baby.

The Wi.itmore Contempt Case Up Again
The Burt Baby.
Judge Zane had an unusually busy day
IN the Third district court yesterday.
There was a large amount of routine
business disposed of and the Whitmore
contempt case occupied a good deal OF
time. 1t was not finished when the court
rose and was continued until 10 a. N.
Monday. IL the proceedings yesterday
MIR. Varian appeared for the plaintiff and
Judges Henderson and Hoge for the de-
PENDANTS. The plaintiff introduced evil
dcnce to prove that in contempt of an
order of the court the defendant had re-
moved the measuring box which was to
apportion the amount of water the re-
spective parties to the suit were entitled
to and was appropriating more than his
share OF the stream z. A. Chase, H. ?.
Hamon and d. ]. Simpson were ex-
a1nined as witnesses for the plaintiff, and
{. P. Brooks, Samuel A. Whitmore and
John Tryon for the defense. The de-
tense admitted that the measuring box
had been removed because 1t was said TO
be detective, but denied that Mr.. Whit
more was appropriating more than his
legal portion of the stream. The evidence
as 60 the quantity OF water on both sides
was very vague and the conclusions ar
rived at were to a great extent based on
guess work. Mr.. Wbitmore, the de-
PENDANT, will be put on the stand tomor-
row, and it is expected the case viii &C.
cupy good portion of the day.
