Charles G. Fargo Adjudged in Con-
tempt of Court at Deadwood.
Charles G. Fargo, the we'll known Hot
Springs merchant and proprietor of the
Gillespie Hotel Mt that place, has been
adjudged in contempt of court by Judge
F. j. Washabaugh and fined $500. with
MI order that he stand committed until
the fine is paid. In 1890 Fargo entered
Into a contract with ID. \. Mcpherson
and Harris Franklin to transfer a ccl.-
tain piece of property in the lower part
of Deadwood for right of way at the
time the. Elkhorn railroad was building
into town. Later Fargo refused to con-
vey the property and suit was brought to
enforce the specified performance of the
contract. The case was in the courts
several years, and i'll 1898 a decree was
entered ordering Fargo to sign n deed
to the property. He either neglected or
refused to comply with the order of the
court. and last week the court attorney
for the plaintiffs asked an order to COM
pei him to convey or he declared in con-
tempt. Judge Washabaugh granted the
order. Fargo still declined, contending
that the property passed out of his hands
several years ago. The case is attracting
attention i'll the Black Hills.
