The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1899-08-19

He said it was necessary for the plant
iff. in introducing it's testimony, to have
access to the maps at all times, both in
and out of court.
Judge Clancy said there could be no
objection to taking copies of the plant
ifs maps under proper circumstances
after the plaintiff had introduced them
in evidence. but that at the present
time the request was unreasonable.
Mr.. Scallon said that it would be too
late. at the close of the PLAINTIFFS case,
to make copies and use them for the
purpose intended. He called attention
to the fact that the evidence showed
that the large map used at the trial and
all the smaller ones, with a few eX-
ceptions, were copies or tracings. the
originals of which We're in the posses
sion of the plaintiff, and the latter
could therefore not require the court
maps for other use than the trial.
II don't think it right to make such
an order now said the court. They
say they need the maps themselves
But l say they have got others.
said Mr.. Scallon. and upon his state
ment that the copies were wanted for
the purpose of showing that the plain
tiff's maps were not correct, the court
relaxed and said he would allow the
defendants to make a tracing of one
of the large maps.
After the court had made its ruling
Mr. Mediation said: IF it is proper at
this time for the gentlemen to have
a copy of this plat or tracing, and for
the court to make an order allowing
them to have it, then it seems 70 me
eminently proper that we should make
a request on the defendant to give to
us the opportunity to make copy of
all their maps, plats and tracings which
they desire to or intend to use in the
trial of this case"
Mr. Scallon replied to Judge McHat-
ton and said the latter evidently re-
garded the proceedings as an academic
discussion; he could account in no other
way for his motion, which, he said,
was absurd in view of his opposition to
the defendants application to copy
maps already in court, and whose right
to do so was limited by the court to
a single map.
Mr. Scallon said there was no use
in injecting bitterness into the trial at
the very beginning, but he did not
think the motion of Mr.. Mediation de-
served any further or any serious re-
ply.
Judge Mediation answered Mr. Seal
Ion with some warmth and said he
hoped that If the latter had anything
on his mind, he would say it without
regard to the motion. Mr.. Mediation
said he was not indulging in an
academic discussion. but was insisting
on the plaintiffs rights. and wanted to
be fair and impartial.
The court ended the discussion by
saying that he would consider Judge
McHatton's motion if made after the
defendants produced their maps in
court.
When the cross-examination of the
witness Macfarlane was resumed he
was asked concerning his statement the
day before that the Rarus vein and fiat
vein at section A of the model, which
represents the ground in the Snohomish
and Michael Dewitt ground outside the
east end line of the Rarus, might be
separated. He said he was not pre-
pared to say that they We're divided,
but might be. At section X, in the
Johnstown ground, the workings show
a connection between the two veins.
At the east end there are three particu-
lar veins. as before stated, and they
unite with the Rarus lode. The north
connecting vein has no identity after it
joins the Rarus, but the Johnstown can
be traced beyond its junction with the
Rarus, though the witness would not
say that it becomes identified with the
Rarus after the junction. The east end
of the model shows workings on five
different channels of ore-one on the
