THE GOLDEN VS.
MURPHY & BEYRS CASE
A Communication From Attorney
on the Subject

Editor Appeal: Judge Curler of the
Second District, or plaintiff. or his at
torneys, have seen fit to get printed
the decision in the case of Frank Col
den against Murphy and Beyers and
the Royal Mining Company, wherein
the defendants were charged with ex-
tracing ore belonging to Golden. If
he had decided the case on law points
there would be nothing improper in
its publication, but he decides the case
and reverses the jury's verdict upon
the ground that it is contrary to the
great prepOnderance of the evidence,
and he argues and it is published and
advertised that he claims that it is
contrary to and not supported by any
evidence This is highly improper.

legal ethics as has ever come under

The Cash Boy.

Wednesday evening. Mike Smith,
one of the promoters and holders of
the Cash Boy Mining Company of To-
nopah, returned to this city from the
scene of operation. He is enthusiastic
over the showings made in the camp
and reports the Belmont as one of the
biggest finds ever made in the mineral
world. In speaking of the outlook for
the Cash Boy, he believes that there
is as good a show to strike ore in the
claim as any in the camp. The shaft
is down over forty feet and is in red
porphyry which is mineraliZed. The
indications are as good as can be eX-
pected, and from all reports of eX-
perts who have been over the ground,
it is believed that the Cash Boy will
be in mineral long before many of the
claims that are highly advertised.
He reports Tonopah as booming,
business is good and the mines are
showing up better every day. The
strike in the Belmont has had the eff
feet of setting others working for
greater depth and he states that Sev-
eral other important strikes will be
recorded before the summer is over.

past two months in the desert. Mr..

range matters with the Piutes for the

it has only remained for the Indians
to accept the conditions to have the

acres of land and 5000. The land is to

THE MURDER.
Carson Still Talking Over the Start
ling Affair.

NAToon 0&'u aiming over the StdTt-
ling Affair.
Naturally the theme OF general con-
versatiOn yesterday was the murder
of the evening before. AS the people
talk over the matter they come to the
conclusion that if Blue had not killed
the Chinaman that he would have
been the corpse instead
Blue is confined in a cell awaiting
the action of the preliminary exami-
nation. This will probably be held
torney Roberts arrives from Califor-
MIA, where he went for vacation.
One gentleman, in speaking of the
trouble, stated that he had known
Charley Blue for over twenty years,
and during that time always knew him
to be man of peace. The fact that
the old colored man has more than
passed his three score years tends to
mitigate the crime, or at least estab-
fishes a sympathy that would not fol
low had the crime been committed by
q younger man. Blue stands his i'm
prisonment well, and the fact that he
gave himself up to the authorities, has
helped his cause.
In Chinatown there is great goings
on. The deceased was a Mason of
high standing and the funeral will
take place under all the rights of the
Celestial order. Among the Cinnamon
there is diversity of opinion. Some
go as far to state that the killing
meets their approval, as the dead
Chinaman was not well liked and
made many enemies among his cOun-
trymen, mostly through his arrogant
manner, also that he was exceedingly
Quarrelsome and was often in trouble.
Other state that he was good man
and one who was held in high estima-
ton. The fact remains that there is
no very great amount of mourning
over his demise among the Chinese.
Just what disposition Of the case
will be made is hard to state until
after the preliminary hearing. Some
believe that Blue will not be held for
the grand jury.

PRESIDENTS PLAN
 FOR THE YOSEMITE
The Commission Sought to Change It
 and Surprise Him.

Yosemite, Calif., May 16.-President Roosevelt has not been heard from to- day. He is supposed to have been in the vicinity of Glacier point this morn ing, but there was no word from him to Secretary Loeb when his party afternoon. Snow fell today in the mountains in which the president is supposed to be and the weather became quite cold. Should the weather become too cold tonight for outdoor camping g there are number of shanties in diff ferent parts of the mountains in which the president could spend the night quite comfortably.
 Notwithstanding the fact that the president before leaving Washington outlined the programme he was to fol- low during his stay in the Yosemite. the Yosemite park commission decided that he should follow another pro- gramme which they adopted without consulting him. This latter programme provided for fireworks, the firing of dynamite to produce loud echoes, and the participation by the president in some sort of public ceremony. With out the presidents knowledge this pro- gramme was circulated broadcast and people came into Yosemite from hun dreds of miles away to see him. When they found that the president was not to be there their disappointment was very great. The president was not told of this proposed change in the pro- gramme until yesterday, and even then he was not told that people were com- ing from such long distances to see him. As he was tired out as the result of the hospitality of San Francisco he di- rected that he would adhere to the original plan and spend the next few days in seclusion.

has been made of the statement that Comptroller Traccwell called off one of the men from an inspection of the Washington postoffice accounts be- case it was alleged that he was reach ing what might be called pay dirt Comptroller Tracewell in his letter to me says that the inspection had been fully completed before the man was taken off and that his report was in and all information wanted was gotten. MT. Tracewell says he himself inspected the New York postoffice accounts.
 Now. once for all, want to say tha; this investigation of the affairs of the postoffice department would go on to the end and will reach into every place and in every direction where there is reason to believe anything wrong may be found. The investigation will be pursued relentlessly. Any talk of the newspapers to the contrary is a pure gratuity. Any thought of hushing the investigation is a pure gratuity on the part of the person who furnishes such information. I am not a man who is disposed to turn tail on such a matter have got the man to go after the facts"

RUSSIA WIpKING
 AT THE ARMENIANS
Turkish Authorities Are Troubled ia
 Consequence.

Constantinople, May 16.-The Turkish authorities are disquieted at the recent appearance of bands of Armenian revo- lutionists. coming from Russia. in the districts of Bayazid and Sasun. armed. and are using vigorous measures to guard the frontier Armenians cross in small parties in the neighoorhood Of BayaZid and therce make their way to the Sasun mountains, where they are safe from pursuit
 It is alleged here that the Russian authorities of KaIs, Asiatic Russia, are aware Of the movement of the Armen- ion revolutionists, but they do not in tend to interfere. It is believed that the appearance of these bands indi- cates a revival of activity on the part fthe old Armenian committees, who are understood to be anxious to be in a position to take advantage of the possible complications arising from the Macedonian situation, in which. case the claims of the Armenians will be re- vived and the same advantages gained by the Macedonians from European in tervention will be demanded for Ar menia.

CAN'T AGREE
In Denver on the Details of Plan to
 Bring About Peace.

Denver. Colo. May 16.-Many move ments have been started in connection with the strike today, but no satisfac- tory results have been reached so far. The state arbitration board offered it's services and late this afternoon the general executive committee of organ ized labor gave notice of acceptance, with the stipulation that the union workmen locked out by candy manu- facturers and the transfer companies be reinstated pending the arbitration. The Citizens alliance. however, refused to accept the mediation of the arbitra- ton board, on the ground that the unions refuse to recognize the alliance.
 Tonight Chairman Coates stated that he, as representative of individuals, had asked the board to take the mat ter up and several firms agreed to ac- cept the boards services. This, under the law, makes it possible for the board to decide individual cases and enforce its awards. Secretary Harley of the state arbitration board is quoted as saying that the strike would be set tied within a week. Everybody has been quiet today.

The trials were one-sided. all being fine weather sailing. with Occa- sionally a fresh breeze. but never wind enough to break the spray over her bows.
