court yesterday afternoon by At
torneys Ainsworth and Bennett for
Messers. Seasongood & Mayer of
Cincinnati, Ohio, against p. J. Cole,
territorial treasurer and his bonds
men for $4,000.
During 1898, Messrs. Seasongood

Commission of the territory to pur-
chase the issue of funding bonds of
April 3, of that year, amounting to
S5O0,O00 and deposited with Terri
torial Treasurer Christy $4,000 as
a security bond. The plaintiffs
allege that the territory failed to
carry out its part of the contract
and still retains the $1,000 dcpos-
tied as bond.-Gd<ette

the man who had walked off with
Blanche Lamont. They also objected
to an explanation of the reason Mrs.
Leak sat so long at her window on the
afternoon when she said she had seen
the murdered girl entering the church
with Durrant. The court over-ruled the
second objection but sustained the first.
Though counsel for the defense had
said that they would be willing to have
the Blanche Lamont and Minnie Will
Jams cases tried jointly, when the dis
trict attorney referred to the finding of
Minnie Williams body the defendants
counsel objected to the introduction of
anything referring to the Williams
murder, which he said was the basis
for a separate action. The court said
he would permit reference to the dis
covery of Minnie Williams body as an
incident leading to the discovery of the
body of Blanche Lamont. He said he
would not rule as to the merging of the
two cases until the question should be
presented to him directly.
At the conclusion of the opening adj
dress the opposing counsel and the
court held a consultation. Then, at the
suggestion of the defendants attorney,
the court ordered that after recess the
jurors, the defendant, the judge and the
official stenographer in charge of the
sheriff join in a visit to the scene of the
murder in Emanuel church.

Peculiar Story of Suicide in a
Southern Idaho Town.
THE VICTIM ROBERT M'CABE
Threat That He Would Hang Himself If
Refused Whisky Carried Out
10 the Letter.

Boise, Sept. "a peculiar suicide
story is reported from Atlanta, Rob
ert McCabe, an old-time miner being
the victim. McCabe became addicted
to the use of liquor to such a degree
that he would stop at nothing to get it.
A short time ago he informed number
of people at Atlanta that he was going
to kill himself unless they supplied him
with whisky and provisions. To en-
phasize his statement, he threw rope
over the limb of tree, and climbing
ladder, threatened to jump into eter-
nifty before their very eyes, unless his
demands were complied with. He re-
peated this performance several times
and the crowd as often gave him what
he wanted after which some one cut
the rope down, but McCabe readily Sc
cured another for his next performance.
This method of eXtortion became tire
some and it was decided to see what the
old man would do if he were not given
whisky. They never dreamed he would
carry out his threat. No attention was
paid to him when he resumed his Gus
tomary demand and declaration on the
2Sth Whether he deliberately jumped
off the ladder, or whether he slipped
will never be known, but a short time
after it was announced that his ruse
would work no longer his body was dis
covered swinging from the end of the
rope. McCabe was So years of age and
is said to be we'll known in many min
ing camps in Idaho.

Small Hope for Insurance Com
panies SwindIed by Fraker.
NO CHARGE WILL HOLD GOOD
Prominent Underwater Believes There
Is No Legal Method TO Regain
Funds Paid out.

Kansas City, Sept. 3.-Attorneys for
the Kansas Mutual Insurance Com
pany, one of the concerns victimized by
DIR. Fraker, are preparing petitions to
file in the United States circuit court
TO restrain j. S. Lincoln executor OF
the Fraker estate; George w. McGru-
der, trustee under the will, and the
Commercial bank of Liberty from pay
ing out any of the money paid under
judgment by the insurance companies.
Petitions will also be filed to restrain
the probate judge from disposing of
any of the money he may have in his
possession under the judgment Sew
eral days ago Mr. Lincoln started to
California to bring back five orphan
children, benefciaries Of Fraker's in
surance money. 1t is probable that
Uncle Jake Crowley, James Triplett
and George Harvey, who testified to
seeing Mr.. Fraker drown, will be ar
rested on the charge of perjury, and
there may be some very startling devel-
opments in the course of the next few
days.
A gentleman prominently connected
with one of the insurance companies
victimized by Fraker takes a less con-
dent view OF the situation. He said:
ut is very unlikely that Fraker can be
held on any charge. He disappeared,
but he never put in a claim for any life
insurance. The insurance was paid,
but there is not any proof that he re-
ceived a cent or tried to get a cent. The
money was paid without any actual
proof of death. 1t can never be proved
that Fraker actually put up the job to
defraud the companies without his own
admission and even if it were proved
it could not be recovered, on account
of the manner in which the money has
been distributed among che heirs"

HIS CONDUCT WAS UNPRoFEssIoNAL
Charge Which May Lead TO Disbarment
OF >. l.. Upton.


Boise, Sept 3-Some recent develop
ments here have gotten a prominent
lawyer into trouble. The former council
passed an ordinance requiring all wash
houses to move out of the fire limits.
The date for the ordinance to go into
effect was postponed from time to time
and was at last fixed for the LIST of
this month. On Saturday night the
couroii met and repealed the ordinance.
During the meeting it was stated that
the ordinance has been used as lever
for extorting blackmail under former
administration. The investigation de-
veloped the fact that the owners of the
wash houses had paid S. l.. Upton, for
mer city attorney, 500 to use his in
fiuence to have postponements made.
1t is said other sums were paid, but 800
has been definitely fixed, and Upton
acknowledged its receipt.
Tonight the bar association met and
took steps to disbar him. A committee
was appointed to make an investiga-
ton and report at a later meeting An
other attorney, f. ID. Bruce, new man
here, is under investigation for suspi-
cious and unprofessional conduct

ed the Cinnamon arrested in Detroit
for entering the United States and who
were ordered to be deported by Commits

man, in discharging the men, said he
questioned the constitutionality Of the
act. He based his decision on the sec
ton of the act which gives the United

as is given a judge. Judge Seaman
holds that the powers of a commission
er are limited. He can not pass SEN
