Two Thirds Interest in one of the
Rowland Mines Sells for 100000.

hoWldud M1NeS 0ellS loI S3oo,oco' y
/ A steamer scheduled to leave
Seattle next Sunday for Alaska
points, will convey to the northern
mines c. E. Rowland, M. 7. Row
land and Geo. w. Smith. The
former has spent the greater part OF
the winter III Corvallis, where his
family resides and is a gentleman
whom The TIMES hos spoken of as
having extensive mining interests
in Alaska. A number of large
nuggets, partial result of his
work in Alaska, was on exhibition
at Metzger,s jewelry store i'll the
early part of December. c. E.
Rowland left Corvallis Sunday. M.
7. Rowland, younger brother, was
here for a few hours only, last
Thursday. He was just returning
from the East and a visit to his old
home in Nebraska. He states that
he has disposed of a two-third in
terest in one of his claims to a
New York syndicate for $500, 900
and is making preparations to work
the property extensively. This
claim is IT'S miles in the interior
from Port Wales, a. point between
Sitka and the Aleutian group of is
lands. While in Nebraska Mr..
Rowland purchased 20 head of
horses which are to be utilized in
packing the new company's sup
plies from Va1des to the mine. They
are now in Seattle and will be
shipped on Sundays boat with
something like 90 tons of provis-
ions and other supplies for the mine.
Elmer Bethers, of Corvallis had
arranged to go north and work for
the Rowlands. He was to receive.
IS per day and board, and Monday
was the day set for his departure
in company with Mr. Smith to catch;
the Seattle steamer, but at the last
moment he decided not to go. It is
understood that Mr. Smith has no
business relations with the RowladsH
as yet, but it is on their represen-
tations that he concluded to go to
Alaska and will probably be associ-#
ated with them more or less. They
doubtless will be able to give George
few pointers, since they are well
acquainted with the country. Mr.
Smiths adiue to his friends in Cor
wallis seemed rather sudden, but
none were so surprised as to forget
to wish him much success.
A. w. Morgan, of Lincoln coun-
ty, was also an Alaska-bound pas
senger on Mondays Westsidetrain.
He had spent about three years in
the northern mines where he made a
comfortable stake. He went to
Lincoln county a year ago with
$6, 900 and bought the Sam Logan
place, near Elk City for So, 900. He
has now leased his farm for a term
Of years, and with his wife is re-
turning to the mines.

THE LAW IN THE CASE
BASED ON THE INTERSTATE COM
MERGE ACT.
Counsel for the Railroad Company
Makes Statement Regarding
the Situation.
THE LAW IN THE CASE

ST. LOUIS. March 4.-Wells H. Blodgett.
vice president and general counsellor Of the
wabash, has made the following statement
on the legal aspect Of the strike situation:
"The court proceedings are based on the
provisions Of the interstate commerce law.
That act makes it the duty Of the railroad
companies to receive and transport all kinds
OF interstate traffic and requires them to
interchange such traffic with each other at
connecting points, and any conspiracy on
the part Of any number of persons to defeat
that act or the provisions of any other fed
eral act is wrong, and renders the parties
liable. criminally and civilly.
That Is not mere theory; it Is the set
tied law. and the injunction only goes to
that extent.
Should the order be violated it would be
for the court to say what steps it would
take to enforce the order, but we have no
reason to believe that any one intends to
violate it."
AT the headquarters of the Wabash rail-
ROAD today 1t was stated that the men who
had threatened to strike are still at work,
and it is not believed they will go out The
injunction granted yesterday is being re-
spected, but 1t is stated that an attempt
will be made during the day to secure a
dissolution of the courts order.

-FOUR OF SAME NAME.
Defendants Who Appeared at Bar Of
Justice This Morning.

Four members Of the Johnson family ap-
peared in the Police Court to answer to
charges. Two were released. two were COM
mitted. William Johnson. colored, was the
first to appear for trial and the charge
against him was of q serious nature. He
had been arrested on the charge Of insult
ing young ladies who attend private
school in the northwest section of the city.
1t was shown that the colored man had
been about the school three mornings, but
he denied that he had Intentionally violated
any law. The testimony against him was
conclusive and he was committed to jail
for six months because he could not pay
fine of $3.50.
similar charge was filed against another
colored defendant whose name was re-
corded as James Johnson. He had been ar
rested in South Washington on complaint OF
a citizen and the latter appeared as a wit
ness against him. This Johnson's explana-
ton was no more satisfactory than was
that OF the johnson who preceded him In
the dock. and the court fined him 500. He
was given six months in default.
Arthur Johnson could not understand why
he should have been arrested on a charge
of vagrancy.
.'He was drunk Saturday night" said the
policeman who arrested him.
II was right hot that night" admitted
the defendant. "but 1t didn't cost me one
cent
"Then you INDUCED in the liquor because
you got it for nothingr' queried the court
That's right"
Arthur was released on his personal
bonds.
The last of the Johnsons to be called
upon to answer charge was young
white man who had been accused of being
dfsorderiy. He entered plea OF guilty and
sentence was suspended.
