LAWYERS FINISH
WITH TOM GEARY
Nome Contempt Cases
Go Over Until Mon
day Next.
Anxious Curiae E. S. PillSbury
and Attorney Heney
Clash.

Everything went awry in the examin-
alton into the Nome contempt cases yes
terday morning before Commissioner
Heacock- Attorneys waited for witnesses
that never came, and clashed at every
opportunity offered. Anxious Pillsbury
and Francis ]. Heney livened up proceed
ings in a tilt and Judge Mcguire helped
to fan the fiery tempers to the blazing
point.
Thomas ]. Geary was again put on the
stand at the opening of the morning seS-
sion. After Heney had asked few queS-
tiOnS in cross examination the witness
was delivered into Pillsbury's hands. The
amicuS curiae went over the whole of
Geary's statement made in court during
the previous day. He tried to show that
Geary had certain meetings with Nc
Kenzie on the day of his arrest. and tried
anceS in the matter of advice relative to
the disposition of the gold dust.
When Geary retired from the stand
Burnham who Pillsbury thinks Will tes-
tify that Noyes and Mckenzie and Geary
had a conference after the arrest of the
latter. Burnham could not be located,
and in order to refute possible testimony
to this point Judge Mcguire wanted to
put on Judge Noyes, so he could be re-
Geved from the responsibility of further
attendance. Pillsbury objected, so NOyes
did not go on the stand.
Attorneys Heney and Pillsbury broke
sKe IN Until MOTIs TussaV fo T
the Court of Appeals of his motion for
striking out big blocks of the evidence
taken. Pillsbury refused, saying he was
held accountable to the court for the
prosecution of the case. Then Heney sail
something mean about the considerats-
ness of attorneys and provoked a reply
from Pillsbury that it was merely
difference and he couldn't help it," He
was willing to stand upon his reputation
for grace and courtesy. Heney said: Il
am here neither for grace nor favor, NJ.
Pillsbury, and / think you should at least
show ordinary courtesysto a brother at
torney But your mind is constructed on
different lines. You can't help it," The
amicuS curiae was too busy to say much,
so he let the matter drop.
The examination will be continued at 9
o'clock Monday morning. and at IL a. m.
Judge Mclaughlin, who was not well
enough yesterday morning to attend tie
examination, was argued ex parte for the
selection of evidence by the court, IN
order that he may be required only t.
meet that portion which connects Judge
Noyes with the contempt charges.
