Trinidad, Colo, December 15.-Dis-
trict Judge Northcutt yesterday rem
6ered his decision in the injunction
case OF the United Mine Workers of
America against the Victor Fuel Com
pxny, the same suit as that given
hearing before Judge Lindsey in the
County Court two weeks ago. Judge
Northcutt takes practically the same
ground as did the County Court, and
dismisses the suit with costs to the
plaintiffs, but allows a bill of excep-
tions. The plaintiff Immediately gave
notice of an appeal to the Supreme
Court.
The prayer of the petitioners was for
an order restraining the Victor Fuel
Company and its employees in their ca
pacity as officers of the law at Delagua,
from interfering with the organizers of
the United Mine Workers in their eff
forts to pass through the town to es-
tablish a relief camp for the strikers
and to talk with the men there at work
about the strike, in order to induce
them to quit work.
''Divesting the various ground OF
complaint on alleged interruption and
interferenoes of all legal verbosity,"
the court says, about the only pro-
hibition of which the plaintiffs serious
ly complain and which stands out
prominently through the mass of tes-
timony introduced, is the denial of
their opportunities to converse with
the men in said town and persuade
them to cooperate in the pending
strike. This is the only real business
which the plaintiffs have shown to
have in mind at the time they desired
to visit said places and the perform
ance of things incidental to said ulti-
mate purpose. 1t does not appear that
these plaintiffs or any of them have
any property, business interests or
homes in, about or in close proximity
to said towns or along the roads lead
ing to or from the same. On the other
hand, it appears that some Of them are
non-residents of the state, and others
live at considerable distance from the
scenes of this difficulty and were called

STIRRED Up BY DIR. Richie.
Catholics Angry Instead or Convinced by
His Anti-PaDist Tracts.

The tracts of the Rev. Arthur Richie
rector Of st. Ignatius Church, assailing the
beliefs Of Roman Catholics, were in great
demand yesterday. Before nightfall
nearly every priest in New York was the
possessor OF one and in state of white-hot
indignat ion over II.
The Catholic Truth Society was organ
lied by Archbishop Farley some time ago
to meet slch attacks. LIS president, the
Rev DR.. W. j. McGinnis. said:
"Dr. Ritchie's campaign is such cheap
affair that il puzzles one to know exactly
how to accept 1t. II is made up of worn
out arguments which have been met and
overcome time and time again. We have
now ready for issue tracts answering all
CT the so-called arguments Of DR.. Richie,
and these will be distributed Immediately
in all OF the districts in which his pamphlet
has been circulated. We will supply them
to the priests, who will in turn spread them
throughout their parishes
Father Wynne, S. D.. editor of the Mes
senger, said: Though bigotry is always
deplorable. SO far as Catholics are con-
cerned the more such tracts are issued
the better. 1t only serves to satisfy the
Catholic that he is right and that the Angli-
can is only resorting to his last resources.
Evidently this tract was written not with
the hope of converting real Catholics to
Anglicanism, but as desperate effort to
keep Protestant Episcopaians from be-
coming Catholics

Walbrecker Of 500 South Fourteenth street.
They kept the wedding secret for some
weeks, but Mrs. Raphael discovered it
and the parents of the Walbrecker girl
were notified.
Mrs. Raphael appeared to be reconciled
to the marriage but she told her son that
he must support his wife and could not
bring her into the Raphael family to live.
The young man was employed by his father
and asked him for wages enough to support
wife. The father told him to save up his
money and he would soon have enough
to go to housekeeping.
When the elder Raphael spoke of going
to Pennsylvania TO buy stock the son begged
TO be allowed to go, his mother says, and
the father sent him to Mannheim, Pa, with
money enough to pay for the cows he was
to buy. That was three weeks ago.
Mrs. Raphael said yesterday that Jacob
should have been home last Friday, but
nothing had been heard from him since he
went away. She said he had friends in
Mannheim and was once in love with a girl
there, but gave her up at the request of his
parents.

have figured the tail to be of enormous
length. Through the telescope the
tail is fan-like in form and is not dis

BIG GAIN is SHOWN
IN WAY OF VALUES.
Great Increase in Property
Returns.
SUMTER ROLLING UP RAPIDLY.
Increase in Taxable Values This Year
Nearly $I75, 900 as Compared WRh
Last Year. Gains Are Shown In
Nearly Every Department.

One hundred and seventy one thoug-
and, one hundred and ninety seven
dollars to the good.
This splendid sum represents the in
crease in property values in Sumter
county this year as compared with the
figures last July, and the gain speaks
volumes for the business and material
interests of Americas and Sumter, evi-
dencing as it does our great prosperity.
Tax Receiver Raiford has gust for
warded the tax digests to the comp
troller-g eneral's office, and once more
old Sumter stands with the best.
Her property values this year ap-
proach the five million dollar mark.
Las year the returns of property ag-
gregated 81, ,346, while this year
the figures are written 81, 913, 1858, show
ing net gain of $171, 1877. This state
ment is most gratifying one indeed,
and will be surpassed by that of few
other counties. Returning prosperity
is evidenced therein.
Real estate, merchandise, livestock,
money, notes, etc all show great
gain this year over last year.
Over farm property this year is worth
s., 800, 256. and city reality $1,605, 683,
both showing a marked increase in
value. Money. notes and accounts fool
up 1914, 224 as against $317, 739, last
year, gain of nearly $25, 900 alone.
Merchandise returned is $317,655,
against 1898, 600 last year.
And thus it goes on down the long
column of figures, and in the aggregate
the gain is $171, 1877. Both city and
county, it would seem, are In better con
dition than at this season last year,
as values show marked increase both
in farm and city property.
Receiver Raiford has been diligent
in collecting returns this year and feels
gratified at the excellent result attain
ed, And next year the gain in values
will be greater still, probably reaching
the quarter million mark. This means
more prosperity and reduced taxes.
And Sumter will be more than ever
the banner county of south Georgia.

were anxious to ascertain the amount
and at the same time devise means for
collecting past due accounts. A con-
siderable portion of this deficiency in
comparative figures is in good accounts
and can readily be collected. Tt has
