Conlee against Symes.
Orville Emmons testified that Conlee
offered him $40 to arrest Symes, saying
he need only read the paper and that
five or six men would be along to pro-
tect him.
Mrs Russell the would-be mother
fn-law of Symes, testified that Conlee
said he would arrest Symes and take
him to Ritzville or kill him.
Sheriff Thompson was examined as
to whether he had requested Conlee to
make the arrest. He had informed Con-
lee of the warrant, but made no re-
quest. He was accused of acting as
private detective and being an I'M
friendly witness for the defense, who
subpenaed him.
An exciting wrangle arose and coun-
sci for the defense accused the prosecu-
ton of unprofessional conduct, and
Merritt appealed for the protection of
the court, who informed him that he
needed no protection. This lasted until
6 o'clock. Adjourned. The evidence
will conclude tomorrow and argument
will then possibly begin.

Establishment embraced 251 stations-lS4

on board these vessels 5402 persons, OF
which 1882 were saved and 20 lost; SO3
shipwrecked persons received succor
at the stations, to whom 1882 days re-
lief in the aggregate were afforded. The
estimated value Of the vessels involved

ENCOURAGE The NAVAL MILITIA
Lieutenant Nieblack Speaks Highly OF

Lieutenant Nieblack Speaks Highly OF
the Volunteer Orsaniza tions.
Washington, Nov. 17.-Assistant Sec
rotary McAdoo has transmitted to Sec
rotary Herbert the report of Lieutenant
Nieblack on the operations of the naval
militia during the past year. In en-
dorsing the report Mr.. McAdoo says the
organizations are growing rapidly in
favor, and the interest of the public in
them is steadily increasing. This or
ganization, founded on patriotic zeal, IS
entitled to every encouragement at the
hands of the government.
Speaking Of the results Of his own
inspection of the various battalions last
summer he says that above all things
they need national encouragement and
sufficient boats to perfect themselves in
drill.
Lieutenant Nieblack's report shows
that New Jersey and Georgia We're the
only new states to make returns ana
share in the allotment of funds during
the year. Under the present system or
allotments an undue share Of the money
goes to the older organizations, which,
he suggests, might be corrected BY di-
viding only one-half Of the total APP
preparation among the militia pro rata
and then suing the remaining half to
aid the new organizations and those
who have not yet received the loan of
a ship or boats and arms.

Time Promised a bloody War.
Chicago Nov. 1.-THE frequently recur-
ring imbroglio between the city govern
ment and the inter-urban and through
railways doing business in Chicago, re-
garding the possession of the public
streets eliminated yesterday in the United
States circuit court. The difficulty which
now promises to be peaceably adjusted
through the mediation of the federal
courts, at one time threatened to precipi-
tate a riot, over one thousand enraged
owners of property threatening to tear
up an additional track laid by the Chicago
and Northern Pacific railroad on West
Fortieth street. The frequency of sim
liar entertainments, and the habit of the
corporations of utilizing the Sabbath day
upon which no njunctions can be issued,
for the prosecution of work of this char
acter has reached so alarming an extent
there having been three similar cases
during the past month, that all permits
for track laying hereafter issued will
contain clauses forbidding Sunday work.
This action of the city government will
probably be followed in other large cities,
where similar difficulties are Of frequent
occurrence.
