Attorneys in Suit Make Motion and
Then Try to Withdraw It.

The case of Kate Gutheil, admin
istratrix, VS.. Gilmer, Salisbury & Co..
was ended yesterday by Judge Cherry
who granted a nOn-suit on the motion
of the defendants. After the attorneys
for the defense had made their motion
for a non-suit they came TO the con-
clusion that the court would instruct
the jury to bring in verdict for them
and they tried TO have the motion
withdrawn.
They wanted the verdict of the jury
in their favor in order to bar any
further proceedings, but Judge Cherry
would not have it that way. He grant
ed the nOn-suit in spite of the pro-
test. The suit was for 81 1920 for the
performance of a contract TO sell min
ing property.

President 5. Il. Graves and General Manager Hawkins, of the railroad, last evening appeared before the Chamber of Commerce, and the president expressed his views at length on the agitation for the purpose of closing the port of Skag. way. He was against this but stated that the road stands willing to assist in an un- dertaking to secure the privileges from Canada that will make it possible for the Skagway merchants to keep Canadian goods here in bond for sale in the British Yukon market. He maintained that the proposed petition for the abrogation of the bonding privilege now accorded Canadians and for the privilege of Skagwayans keep ing goods here in bond for sale in the Yu- kon territory are inconsistent.
 | It was the intention of the chamber to meet in the ordinary way, but Messrs Graves and Hawkins invited the chamber to be their guests at dinner at the German Bakery. The invitation was accepted and the following were present: President Keller and Messrs. Haraden, Case% Lilly, Hooker, Pope, Mcdonald, Peoples, Diers, Runner, Laumester, Caswell, Peterson, Kinney.
