A BATTLE OF GIANTS.
The Jordan-Schuerman Mining Case
 in Supreme Court.

The most important case cn ihe supreme court calendar was argued and submitted yesterday It was F. E. Jordan, appellant, vs. George H Schuerman, appellee. That is merely the title of the case, but the real parties in interest or the parties be- hind the parties in the title are those two multi-millionaires, W. A. Clark and Marcus A. Daly of Montana. who have been struggling with each other for years over mining properties. United States senatorships and loca- tions of state capitals.
 The property involved consists of several mining claims in Yavapai county. The litigation was begun in Yavapai county, but was taken to Pima on a change of venue and tried there little more than a year ago. At the beginning of the trial the title of the action was Jordan ys Duke Jordan was believed to be backed bv Clark, and Duke by Daily. But if anything were wanting to show that the case was one of supreme interest involving other persons than the nom inal litigants, 1t was afforded in the character of the counsel employed DtSlut JuuSe t1aWklHS and HerndOn x Norris for Jordan, and T. w. John ston and W. H. BaTnes for Duke, two of the foremost mining lawyers of the west were retained. F. E. Cor bett Of Butte, Mont, Clarks counsel. was enrolled among Jordan's law yers, and c. M. Brooks of Colorado Springs, Colo, among Dukes. The trial at Tucson lasted three weeks. and after 1t had been in progress, Schuerman, the appellee, was made a party to the suit over the strenuous objection of the Jordan attorneys. Schuerman was given judgment and an appeal was taken,
 The argument was begun yes erday hv Ju9ge Hawkins for the app liant. He was followed by Messrs. Barnes and Brooks for the appellee. The

FILLED WITH FALSE HOPE.
An Incident of a 10 O'Clock Policy
 Drawing.

On Wednesday night Dick Arnold of the Richelieu bought a policy ticket of one of the emissaries of the lottery An attorney who happened to be present was askd if he wanted in on it. The attorney went in to the eX- tent of two bits and the numbers were selected with reference to dreams of the night before and other super stitious fancies.
 The drawing was to come off at 10 o'clock and as both MT. Arnold and the lawyer wanted to go to bed be- fore that time, they gave the ticket to Mel Thorndyke and authorized him
 represent them at the distribu- Defon. The joint owners of the ticket failed to catch a number, but Mr. Thorndyke bribed the lottery man to fix up a proof from which it appeared Bhsf the ticket had caught eight numbers and impoverished the game
 He took the proof back to the Richelieu, turned it over with the

THE MINING CONVENTION.
It's Opening Attended by 2 F'avorabl
 Sign.

The convention of Arizona mining men called by Governor McCord will meet in this city next Tuesday and will remain in session two days. F. B. DevereuX, who was delegated by the governor to procure a meeti7g g place, announced yesterday that he had secured the Elks' hall.
 AS has been before Sta.ed. the chief object of the convention is to organize mining association in the territory which will result in a CO., opsration of mining interests, the want of which has been often felt. Until now Arizona is the only one of the great mining regions in which sudh an organization has not been formed. Mining men through out the territory are taking an ex- traordinary interest in the matter and judging from the letters rece.ved at the governors office the attendance will be large.
 A favorable sign will mark the opening of the convention. The day will be a holiday never celebrated in Arizona before. the fiftieth anniversary of the discovery of gold in Califor- mia. The states of California. Ore gon, Washington and Nevada re- solved some time ago to make the anniversary a holiday and in com pliance with request lately received from the governor of Califor ia, Gov ernor McCord yesterday issued a proclam3 ton making the Gay a hol- iday.

THE DE FONTAINE CASE.
Some Interesting Details of the Ar
rest and Stories of the ACCus-
ed Man

AS was printed in the HERALD last
afternoon George de Fontsioe, who is
well known around town, was arres ed
for having at different times passed
counterfeit bills ranging in amounts
from b We to fifty dollars. At that time
it was impossible to give full details of
the arrest and the causes leading to it.
When Uncle Sam starts out to make
an arrest of this kind he begins at tn e
top and Sits it down to find the real
culprit; this arrest is probably only the
first of many.
About q month ago the government
was notified through one of the nation
al banks In Omaha that there was q
good deal of counterfeit currency in
circulation there, and as the exposition
was in progress the chances of clrcu-
lating more were most favorable.
After having received this notice
from Omaha, the treasury department
also received notice from a bank in
Dallas to the same effect as the one re-
ceived from Omaha.
As soon as possible Special Agent
w. 81. Forsyth, who ia known by re-
putation all over the United States as
being in the front rank when it comes
to running down counterfeiters; was
detailed OloOk into the circumstances
a. Omaha and Dallas. He at once went
TO Omaha, and after staying there for a
few days went to Dallas, and getting
what data he needed there he found
that the money which had come in
there was sent in from somewhere
along the border. So he came to Ell
Pasoi about two weeks ago
and at once went to Juarez 2,
thinking that the operators would De
on that side of the river. 10 this sup
position he was not far. wrong, for after
having been there two or three DAYS
he saw de Fontaine over there, and az
ter watching his actions for another
day set a trap for him to see IL his sus-
picions were well grounded.
The story has it that some one was
employed by Detective Forsyth to offer
20 buy bill from de Fontaiue. and
while scrutiniziug the bill the mum bers
on 1t and the series issue aud the sig
nature were all noted so the bill could
be identified later if found necessary.
and yesterday when de Fontaine was
arrested this same identical $40 bill
was found on his person.
The delay in arrestipg De Font tame
caused the officers, flor Deputy U. S
Marshall Hillebrand was assisting the
detective as much as pOssible,) a good
deal of worry for fear their man would
get awsy before they could arrest him

Mr.. Hillebraud called to him at once,
saying 20 George" but receiving no
answer repeated the call. De Fontaine
at once saw that he was wanted by the
marshal so he turned around to the
right and at the same tine threw a
white envelope over the sadobe fence
into the yard. The marshal came up
and laid his hand on the shoulder
of de Fontaine and told him he was
under arrest, and then he went
to the fence, leaned over,
and picked up the white paper, SAYING.
This is what you threw over the
fence " De Foutaine denied that he
threw it over, but the marshal saw him
do it. While the conversation was.go-
