CHARGE OF FRAUD
IN N|PPER MINE
ATTORNEYS REPRESENTING PARROT
COMPANY SAY M'LAUGHLlN
HAS MlSMANAGED 1T.

Allegations of fraud and mismanage-
ment are made against Receiver Nc
Laughlin, who was in charge of the Nip
per mine, belonging to the Parrot COM
pany. These charges are included in OBJ
jectons filed in the district court by the
attorneys representing the company, the
action being in the nature Of a protest
against the report of w. +. Carroll, who
acted as referee and approved the ac-
counts of the receiver.
1t is asserted OH behalf Of the COM
pany that the receiver was very lax in
his management of the valuable prop
crty placed in his charge by an order of
the court. The supplies were used in
discriminatory by the receivers force and
that of +. A. Heinze, says the attorneys,
and there was no means of determining
where Mclaughlin left off and Heinze
began.
The claim is also made that many men
who should have been paid by Heinze
. were charged on the payroll account Of
the receiver. The receiver is also said
to have paid himself large sums OF money
and to have allowed his lawyers large
amounts. These disbursements, it is claim
ed were entirely without authority.
At the end of the receivership, the
company asserts, the receivers books
showed an Indebtedness of $Is,5o2.77 to
the Montana Ore Purchasing company.
This was the condition Notwithstanding
the large quantities of valuable ore sent
to the smelter of that concern. The bor-
rowing was without authority, it is claim
ed, and there should have been a profit
instead Of loss.
The court is asked to set aside the re-
port of the referee.

gravely blundered in associating itself with
Germany against Venezuela.
Sir Robert declared blockade would
be useless against bankrupt state, while
the seizure of the customs will be tanta-

zuela to the United States.
Sir Robert strikes his most alarming
note when he refers to the danger OF Ger

United States.
He declared that Germany would not
hesitate to occupy Venezuelan territory
and he thinks the less said about British

Venezuela, and closed with these words

London, Dec. 1S.--The development in
the Venezuelan imbroglio, as revealed by
Premier Balfour's statement in parliament
yesterday have resulted in bringing out
in the press this morning stronger ex-
pressions than ever of the desire to reach
some pacific settlement of the difficulty.
1t is said on behalf of the government
that in last July when German co-opera-
tion was first mooted, the government
fully recognized the possibility of war
with Venezuela and only postponed it
until winter at the suggestion Of the adj
miralty, and in order to avoid the un-
healthy season.
On the other hand. those who declare
the government of the United States
forced the government Of Great Britain
into virtual declaration OF war are not
lacking.
Certainly considerable portion OF the
British public was rather disagreeably
surprised to find that Great Britain ac-
tualy was at war and t at this war might
for many months to come require the
presence OF large naval force in Vcnc-

zuelan waters and put stop to all Brit
ish trade with Venezuela.
Henry Norman, M. p, in a newspaper
article published this morning, in which
he emphasizes the danger Of the position
into which Germany is dragging Great
Britain, is to seek satisfaction through
cooperation with the United States. Mr..
Norman asserts that SERIOUS and urgent
warning, private in their origin, but vir-
tually official, have been cabled from the
United States in the past few days"
Mr.. Norman's opinion expresses wide
spread feeling with regard to the Anglo
German agreement and concerning the
question Of how the United States would
view the existence OF a statement of war
fare between the powers and Venezuela.
The newspapers this morning ask: What
would happen should Germany choose to
seize Maerta island as base for the
blockade"

girl. Doctor Lorenz kneadcd and twisted
the loot, until it was as soft and pliable
as piece of putty, then he deity moulded
it into its proper form and announced
that the operation was completed, and
plaster cast was fitted on the foot. The
doctor said the child should be allowed
to use her foot as much as she could af-
ter four or five days, and that it would
be necessary to keep the cast on for
SIX or seven months after which she
could walk. -Four operations for con-
genital dislocation were performed, and
at their close Dr. Lorenz showed that he

II will be good news to the mothers of
small children to learn that Group can be
prevented. The first sign of Group is
hoarseness. A day or two before the at
tack the child becomes hoarse. This is
soon followed by a peculiar rough cough.
Give Chamberlain's Cough Remedy freely
as soon as the child becomes hoarse or
even after the rough cough appears, and 1t
will dispel all symptoms Of Group. In this
way all danger and anxiety may be

ANOTHER OIL SENSATION.
Phil Cooks Possessions Over in Lee Said
TO Be Greasy With 1t.

An Atlanta dispatch says: Secretary
of State Cook may be an oil king IN
very short time. In fact, his chances
for becoming such are so strong now
that his friends have dubbed him
"Coal Oil Phil" A few days ago he
received letter from Charles Fl.
Beazley of Leesbdrg informing him
that indications of oil are quite plenti,
full on his lands. Mr.. Beazlev is a
prominent developer OF real estate in
Lee county, and in company with a
mining expert has been over Mr..
Cooks plantation and says the at
mosphere is strongly impregnated with
the smell of oil. Mr.. Beazley says that
the surface of pond on Mr.. Cook 8
property is covered with thick scum
that burns brightly when lighted with
g match. Mr.. Beazly has suggested TO
Mr.. Cook the advisabllity OF posting
the land warning the public against
having matches about their person
when going over the plantation. The
writer urges Mr.. Cook TO bore for oil,
as he feels satisfied that it is there in
large quantities. These suggestions
Mr. Cook will carry out at once.

A Thief Robbed EnvelOped, But
Got Very Little for His
Trouble.

Several days ago Mr.. G. O. Hill,
cashier at the dlspensary, ordered
from the makers of the cash register
which the dispensary uses a small
screw, the duplicate of which had been
lost from the register. The manufact-
urers sent the screw by mail, enclos-
ing it in small envelope which was
itself enclosed in an ordinary envel-
ope.
When the letter reached Dawson
the two envelopes were opened, but no
screw was found. Examination then
disclosed the fact that a slight incision
had been made with some sharp instru-
ment, probably pocket knife, through
both envelopes, and the screw remov-
ed, the thief believing that the inner
envelope, which was plainly discern
able through the outer one, contained
something of value.
