ALLEGED ENCOURAGEMENT ON THE
PLYMOUTH ORE BODY.

James H. Maloney. George A. Cobban,
Alfred E. briggs and Cornelius p. Dren-
nan filed in the district court today a
suit against Si!as F. King, James A. Muir
ray, Wakeman Sutton, James A. Talbot
and Marcus DAILY to recover judgment
for $500 the value of ore alleged by the
plaintiffs to have been taken by the de-
PENDANTS from beneath the surface of the
Plymouth lode claim. The plaintiffs state
in their complaint hat they own the min
eral rights of the claim, and that on or
about May l, by means of a 200-fOot shaft
sunk near it, and crOsscuts and drifts
from said shaft, the defendants entered
the lines of the property and took ore to
the extent of the value mentioned; that
they are still taking it at the rate of 10
tons per day: that the ore is valued at
about $50 per ton. Besides a demand for
$50. 900 plaintiffs ask the court to ssue an
order restraining the defendants from
further alleged e-ncroachments. Attor-
neys brennan and Shropshire have
charge of the plaintiffs case.
A second amended complaint was filed
today in the suit of J. j. Mccall VS.. J. M.
Barber. The action is one in which the
plaintiff seeks to recover judgment for
sums of money alleged to have been
loaned the defendant at various times.
The total amount is $500. 25.

The final chapter in the sensational d.
vorce suit of Ludwig VS.. Ludwig was en-
acted IN .he district court today, and
henceforth each party to the acton will
be as free to act as he or she pleasts. The
action was entitled Mabel Ludwig VS..
Henry Ludwig. Some months ago the
plaintiff in the action succeeded in get
ting the court to make an order compell-
ing the defendant to pay her $25 per
month al.mony, but since then negotia-
tons looking to a comp, omlse have been
IN progress. Today it was effected in a
manner satisfactory to both s!des-Lud-
wig paid her $3.50 in full of all demands,
and she signed a release. or the amount
$50 went to the attorney.

ing on a charge of forgery, but this re was
dismissed the action. 1t appeared that
another man had passed the bogus papel
and Walker had merely filled it out fol
him.
G. A. Newill, the man who scorched ou'

Carter, and caught by Carter ID miles

arceny in Justice Nichols court today
and the court sentenced him to sl>

fine of $500 on him.. The fine, however
cannot be collected.
