c. .. HILLMAN is ACCUSED
Real Estate Man Made Subject of a
Criminal Action.

SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 9.-1n a
complaint sworn out in the prosecut-
ing attorneys office, c. D. Hillman, the
known real estate dealer is ac-
cused of obtaining money under false
pretenSeS. The prosecuting witness,
w. NJ. Dairy, AYERS that he bought
block IFS Ct Hillman's Garden of Eden
addition. Mr.. Hillman then, at his re-
quest, showed him the land. The tract
was about four and three quarter
acres in extent.
Dairy now claims that the land
showed him was not the land he
bought at all, but block 176, a tract ly-
ing near block 17S. The purchase was
made July 25, and Dairy submits a

WILL TEST EIGHT-HOUR LAW
Seattle Contractors Take Case Into
Court.

SEATTLE, Aug. 9.-Contractors who
have contracts with the city for street
improvements intend to test the legal
ity of the state law and the city ordi-
nance forbidding persons holding city
contracts from working their laborers
more than eight hours a day. S. Nor
mile, who is grading on First avenue,
North, applied to Judge Bell for a re-
straining order temporarily enjoining
the board of public works from pre-
venting him working his men ten hours
a day, and also prohibiting the board
from annulling his contract or inter-
fering with him in any way because ne
refuses to live up to the eight hour
law. The temporary order was grant
ed and the board was cited to appear
August 9 to show cause why it should
not be permanently enjoined from in
terfering with the contractor because
his laborers work longer than the state
and city law permits.
The papers We're served on the men,
bers of the board while in session. A
hearing of the notice of intention to
cancel Normile's contract was set for
Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock and
the contractor was notified to be pres

TRAVELLING SALESMAN FINED.
Charged With Failing to Take Out :
State License.


POMEROY, Aug. 9.-W. B. Henry,
a salesman for the Spalding Buggy
company, was brought up before JUS
tice F. V. Messenger on a charge of
peddling without having first obtained
license therefor, as provided by the
session laws of 1903, which fixes a Ii
cense fee of $40 per day.
The defendant demurred to the
charge, attempting to raise the con-
stitutionali.y Of the act, but Jusice
Messenger thought he question out
side of his jurisdiction, and Overruled
the demurrer. At the conclusion of
the hearing he imposed a fine of 800,
the minimum prescribed by statute.
Henry gave notice of appeal and put
up the necessary bond. 1t is believed
that the buggy company will test the
matter in the courts of last resort.

a fighter ready to take elthers place.
The sports will smile when they hear
his name. but nevertheless, he wants
chance. His managers name is Billy
Madden. famous the world over. Now
YOU can readily guess the big scrap
per's name, for Madden has only one
heavyweight on his staff.
Yes, it is Gus Rubin, who has had
two chances to beat Jeffries and missed
both times. When Gus fought the
champion the first time both were nov
ices. knowing barely anything about
the game, and Of the two Rubin looked
the most promising fighter. He was a
tall. choking fellow, who had good
carriage and action, while Jeffrles
seemed slow, awkward and clumsy.
If any one then had been courageous
enough to predict that Jeffries would
some day be the greatest champion the
world had yet seen he would have been
branded a fiji subject for an asylum.
From that night Jeffries moved slow
~ but surely to the top of the ladder,
while Rubin has had his ups and
downs, chiefly the latter.
His second contest with Jeffries was
such a wretched affair that Rubin
Disguised the local sports, who charged
him with being a rank gutter. Since
then he has made some good fights,
but he has done hardly enough to en-
title him to a third go with the cham
pion.
Billy Madden, however, thinks he
has. The old manager writes as fol-
lows:
Should any hitch occur with Mum
roe Jeffries, Rubin Will fight either one
OF any fair terms. and its an even
money bet he can defeat either, as he
goes like 4 champion when it is least
expected. They thought ne was in last

which was in everybOdy's mouth a
month ago. But politicians. even of the
straight railroad school, believe that
the scandal has damaged Mr.. Coon
hope of election fatally and irretrieV-
ably, and, while there is a lull in it
now, there is every probability that 1t
will be revived before the campaign
ends.
Atkinson, the school teacher named

Goes to the Highest Court.
Whatever may be the outcome OF the
hearing, the case will be carried to the
supreme court for final determination,
and if the contractor should receive an
adverse verdict in the highest court

supreme court of the United States to
pass on the constitutionality of he law.

Backed by Association.

While the action is brought in the
name of Normile, it is backed by the
Contractors Protective Association, or
the local trust on street work. Each
member has been assessed his share
and, no matter what the cost is, the
case will he taken to the court of last
resort unless a verdict declaring the
eight hour law unconstitutional is first
obtained.
1t was the intention of the associa-
ton at the time that Normile was dele
gated to take the First avenue North
a test. 1t is a small contract and it's
loss would not mean much. The his
to be made is set forth in the allega-
tons of the contractor.
Last July Normile signed a contract
with the city to grade First avenue
North from Howe street to McGraw
street In his complaint the contractor
alleges that men applied to work for a
work: that they agreed to work for a
specified sum per hour, and were all
willing to work ten hours a day. July
10 the board of public works notified
him that it intended to enforce the
eight-hour laws and that if he was vlo-
lating the laws he must desist.
Contractor Ignores Law.
To this notification ne alleges that
he paid no attention. On August the
board of public works informed him
that it had discovered he was not pay
ing any attention to it's former demand,
and that if he continued to ignore the
law his contract would be Cancelled.
He was directed to stop work until he
received further notice from the board.
In mis- showing for the temporary in
junction the contractor sets up that It
is impossible to carry on this work az
a profit if he cannot employ men to
work ten hours a day. During the
rainy season, which commences in Sep
TENDER, the contractor alleges that it is
almost impossible to work in the blue
clay that he constantly meets in his
work. He AYERS that if he cannot work
his men ten hours he will be unable to
complete this contract with a number
of others that he has, and that he con-
sequently will be liable for forfeituros.
1t is claimed that no legislature has
the power to prevent a contractor from
engaging men to work ten hours day
or longer, If they desire, as long as 1t
does not inperil their health or the
morals of the community In this in
stance it is contended that the laborers

AS to the balance of the ticket the
horns will probably go with the hide.
Judge Turner is much stronger than
the balance of the democratic state
ticket, and will doubtless get many
votes, which his colleagues will not !;

agreement in convention last February,
have rails "a railway valuations so that
the aggregate will amount to several
million dollars higher valuation on that
class of property.
This is the year in which real es-
tate values are generally adjusted, and
as the assessors themselves have rails
ed the valuation it is not likely that
the state board of equalization will
this year attempt to raise valuations
very much above what the counties
have set, but will confine their work
simply to the equalizing of values of
the various counties.
Mr.. Atkinson further says that the
revenues derived from various depart
ments of the state in the way Of insur-
ance fees, liquor licenses and other
fees will be largely increased this year,
and that with the largely increased to-
tai valuations there would seem to be
no need for an increased rate of state
general tax He states that the valu-
alton of all property of the state has
increased in the neighbOrhOOd of $685.
100000 since 1890, and that the total
valuation of all counties east of the
Cascade range last year was $780,
219,926, while that west of the Cas-
cades was $166,76S SAB, and that the
number of acres of improved farm
lands east of the Cascades last year

Der of acres assessed east of the noun

The Baltimore Sun.says, Senator
Scott returned to New York from
West Virginia with a bit of significant
news. Senator Stephen B. Elkihs is
not taking an active part in the Re
publican campaign in West Virginia.
He is ''sick.'
HE was too sick to come to our big
meeting at Parkersburg, said Sena-
tor Scott. with great naiyete.
Senator EIkins is son.in.iaw of
Henry G. Davis. the Vice Presidential
candidate on the Democratic ticket.
and he is the Republican boss of West
Virginia. His interests and great in
fiuence are scattered in all parts of the
State; he controls many votes. When
Mr.. Davis name Was being urged as a
candidate at ST. Louis someone in
quired of John T. McGraw, his chief
boomer.
What will Steve EIkins do if we
nominate bis father in-law?"
HE will get divorce, commit sui
eide or find that bis health is too bad
TO take part in the campaign" the
hustling McGraw Is reported to have
replied. Mr.. Elkins, it is hinted here,
has evidently chosen the latter course
as the least painful of the three. Sena-
tor Scott feels Certain that West Vir-
giuia will go Republican this fall. He
said SO without smiling.
