any in the district, by reason of the lead
values in the ore. A force of men have
been working on the King Solomon since
November l. principally on the old San
Francisco location. They have run In on
the vein about fifty feet. The Post-ln-
telligencer correspondent sampled the face
of the tunnel, and the assay return gives
40 per cent. lead. 1903 ounces silver and
$1.O3 gold to the ton. The whole face of
this tunnel showed galena.
The result of the sample goes to confirm
several statements heretofore made that
the north slope of Mount Ellemeham and
Palmer mountain, and the south slope Oh

NICE G POINT.

chicago Inter Ocean,: A case was
heard in the United States district court
Yesterday to decide if a divorced person
un"tr an order to pay alimony by decree
el d stat court can evade yme and
future liability by fling a petition of
voluntary bankruptcy in the United
States court. This ease. which promises
to reach the supreme court of the United
states. involves a delicate question of
jurisdiction and power TIVE the
t~nite@States court of the northern dis
trict of Illinois and the superior court Of
Cook county.
At the present writing Attorney T. w.
Foltz, representing Mrs. Miriam r. Chal-
lcner. ho>ds an order from the superior
court of Cook ounty f." the commit
ment OF DR.. Robert Challoncr to Jail for
the non-rayment of alimony. and DR..
thailoner's attorn VS. have filed a mo-
ton in the United States district court
asking that Mrs. Challoner and her at
torney. |. w. F0,tZ. be imprisoned for
obtaining the order for Dr.. rhalloner's
commitment afte" being enjoined not to
90 so by the Unit i states court.
outside the delicate question as to the
relative powers of the federal and state
courts and the imminent danger of a
clash in this case. lawyers deem the legal
principle inolved as of the highest i'm
p%crtance. The vital Question involved is:
Will the discharge of a bankrupt in
bankruptcy proceedings in the United
hptotSS Cou ititdSt ana cut OF dlltlpnN
under a decree or order of the court in
divorce proceedings?
Attorney Foltz. in his brief, argues
that this was not contemplated in the
law. and points out that a man who
would give his wife cause for divorce
and would support the wife and children
only because of the decree of a court
would not be above using the bank
ruptcy law to evade the responsibility.
He cites the opinion Of Judge Cnoate OF
the United States district court of the
southern district of New York. given in
a case under the bankruptcy law of 1857,
in which the same question was involved.
Judge Choate held that discharge in
bankruptcy did not release alimony
either due or to become due in a bin for
divorce. The position assumed by Mrs.
Challoner and Attorney Foltz is that DIR.
Cnalloner enjoys a large and lucrative
practice. and is ~abundantly able to pay
bankruptcy law wholly to evade that
payment and for no other reason; that
he feels bitter and angry toward Mrs.
anChalloner, and IS y to 20 almost
any length to ket. IN paying her
money.
Attorney Foltz says there is a clique
of lawyers in Chicago banded together
to get. If possible. an Interpretation of
the bankruptcy law that will permit di-
vorced persons to evade the payment of
alimony. On the other hand. there is a
class of lawyers. representing the di-
v%orcees, who are nXiouS to secur an
exactly opposite.

TAKE ISSUE
Dr.. Alexander Says Mcleod
Has the VariOlOid.
DR. SULLIVAN SAYS NAY
One Will Not Allow Him to Return to
Town and the Other Says He Can
not Enter the Pest House
DR. SULLIVAN SAYS NAY

Walter Mcleod. the man Who was sen:
posedly suffering from varioloid, finds
himself between the devil and the deep
blue sea. DR.. Alexander, the city health
officer, insists that the man is i'll of vario-
loid, that he should become an inmate of
the pest house and he refuses to allow
him to return to the city. Dr.. Sullivan.
the official medical head of the pest house.
and whose authority comes jointly from
both the city and the county asserts that
the man is not suffering from either small
pox or varioloid, and refuses to permit
him to become an inmate of the pest
house. And while doctors disagree Me-
Leod tarries in the COW house at the
county farm, awaiting an official diagno-
sis of his case.
DR.. Alexander called at the mayors
office this morning and laid the matter
before that official. Tn doctor suggest
ed that inasmuch as the health officer
and the physician in charge of the pest
house could not agree as to the diagnosis
that a commission Of several doctors be
appointed and Mcleod be disposed
of according to their decision, which
should be final. His honor, the mayor,
was not inclined to interfere and suggest
ed that the matter of an examining COM
mission be referred to the board of coun-
ty commissioners. This DR.. Alexander
agreed to.
DR.. Alexander informed an Inter
Mountain reporter this morning that he
was notified by DR.. Sullivan yesterday
that the man would not be permitted
to enter the pest house as a patient. as
in his opinion. he did not nave the vario-
loid. DR.. Alexander Went to the poor
farm and made an examination of Me-
Leod, and returned to the City satisfied
that the original diagnosis of the case
was the correct one.
while a man suffering from the vario-

Enact Gold Standard.

F.. New York. Oct. 31.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says: The en-
actment of the gold standard into law
and reform of the banking currency
laws so as to give the country more elias
tic bank note currency. will be the lead
ing recommendations of Secretary Cages
annual report. When the secretary
went before the banking and currency
commission of the house of representa-
tives early in The present administration
and declared emphatically for the enact
ment of the gold standard into law. he
startled many of his party associates.
He stood his ground, however, and has
had the satisfaction Of seeing the rank
and file of his party. with some excep-
tions, come up to the standard which he
has planned.
In the same way the secretary Will now
take advanced ground in favor Of bank
ing reform and a system or banking
which will allow banks to issue their own
notes to meet extraordinary demands for
currency. The secretary believes that a
system of bank note issues can be de-
vised which will insure the safety of the
note holder and at the same time Will
not %endanger the safety of the money
entrusted to the banks by depositOrs. He
will recommend the enactment of a
law providing for the issue of notes
against deposits of bonds and greenbacks.

allowing the banks to issue additional
notes against their assets. The details
of the plan will be principally the same

as those which he recommended in his
first annual report in 1897. The advant-
age of enabling banks to issue notes
against their assets under restrictions
and regulations which would insure the
absolute safety of the notes. it is stated
is that they would thus be able to put out
additional clrc,ylat ion alt Itim<s when
money was in demand and to retire notes
as soon as the necessity for the increased
circulation had passed. This would pre-
vent the great increase in interest rates
which now occurs periodically and would
not produce at times such a plethora of
money as to lead inevitably to overspecu-
fatiOn.
