IS T0N0PAH IN NYE OR
ESMERALDA COUNTY


Is the Nye county court house recently
constructed in Tonopah, in Esmeralda
county? This grave question, one of vital
concern to the people of two of the most
important civil divisions in Nevada, has
been worrying the engineers of the two
eral months. and now it has been called
into the courts. George j. Gels, former
manager of the Tonopah-New England
property, supposed to be located in Tono-
Wednesday to recover back salary and
states in his complaint that the mine is
in Esmeralda county.
The bringing of the suit in Goldfield
from Tonopah evidences the fact that all
that part of Tonopah which lies to the
west of the Siebert shaft on the Mizpah
ground is now considered to be within the
bounds of Esmeralda county.
This stand is known to have been taken
in the land Office at Carson for some
time. Howard Russell, deputy constable
not very long ago in that town applied
in the latter city for a title to a piece
OF town property ne owned in tonopah
and he was asked by the officials as to
whether his property la yto the west of
the Seibert shaft and upon answering
in the affirmative he was informed that
his property was in Tsmeralda county
and as such he should apply for an Es-
meralada title.
Should this decision hold good the
greater part of Tonopah is in Esmeralda
county, even including the court house.
Truly strange state of affairs when it is
understood that Nye county will not give
up her Tonopah without struggle The
bone of contention appears to lie in the
discrepancy in what is known as the Boo
ker and Sinclair surveys Sinclair ran
a line from Esmeralda. Bookers line pass
es through Tonopah on the south, giving
Nye the prize. Sinclairs line passes
through Tonopah at the Siebert shaft
thus giving Esmeralda the greater part
of the town. When the controversy is
brought to a climax between the two sur
S<NeASt
point at which the angle of the county
line should begin to switch to the north
Should the counties fail to agree as to
where the line cuts the two counties
in twain as seems likely to be the case
there will be no redress but to let the
state supreme court decide the matter
This promises to be a difficult task, for
no two surveyors can tell exactly where
the thirty-eighth parallel is. Sinclair is
reported to have an instrument ac-
curate up to five seconds in time. A
loss of five seconds in time means a
loss of approximately one mile out in the
reckoning and that much disputed turning
point on that exact parallel of latitude
is such delicate propositian that a
few hundred feet eout in the reckoning
few hun red feet out in thereckoning
and that few hundred feet holds Tonopah
in the balance.

JOHAN HOCh WILL

ONLY ONE WITNESS SWORN FOR
THE DEFENSE.
An Expert Chemist Whose Testimony
Was Somewhat Weakened on
cross-Examination.

Chicago, May 15.-The case of Jo-
hann Hoch, the bigamist and alleged
wife murderer. is near an end. When
the state wound up its case today At
torney Plotke surprised every one by
opening and closing the defense with
but one witness--Dr. Gustav Kolisher,
an expert chemist, who declared 1t to
re his belief that Mrs. Walcker-Hochs
death did not result from arsenical
poisoning. He asserted that the symp-
toms described could be attributed to
number of diseases and added that IL
arsenic had been introduced into the
stomach before death that organ
would have shown plain evidence of
corrosion. Dr. Kolisher also asserted
that the soil of graveyards is fire.

what was discovered by other chem
lists in the stomach might have
reached there by absorption. When,
however, the assistant states attorney
proved that the body had been in the
soil but ten days prior to exhumation.
-thC ooiptioh
theory would hardly hold good.
The strongest evidence against the
bigamist is the confession he is said to
have made to Police Inspector Shippy.
That officer was the last witness for
the state this morning and said that
Hoch admitted to him that he had
used arsenic in drugs given his wife.
This admission, together with the
finding on Hoch, by the New York
officer who arrested him, Of fountain
pen which was filled with arsenic.
helped greatly to complete the chain
of circumstantial evidence which the
prosecution thinks is now as firm as it
Is possible to make 1t.
Arguments will begin tomorrow and
the case will probably go to jury by
Wednesday afternoon.

A DAY OF RIOTING
One Man Nearly Killed in Strike Trou-
BILE at Wheeling.

Wheeling, w. Va, May 15.-This
was a day of rioting and disorder in
the Whitaker mill strike. Non-union
men were assaulted, pickets re-estab-
lished about the plant. and incidentally
the old strike was declared renewed.
To add to the general confusion some
of the new men In the mill enclosure
grew dissatisfied with the situation,
claiming disagreement as to contract,
and left the plant In considerable num-
bers, many Of them falling prey to
the crowds that lined every approach
to the barricaded sheet and tin depart

This afternoon on the most promi.
nent thoroughfare of the city. John
Baron. of Sewickley, Pa, a new man,
was attacked and ALMOST killed, with
bricks. Crowds of strikers and SYM
pathizers took possession of Twenti-
eth street, the principal avenue to the
plant, and as the new men left the
mill they ran terrible gauntlet. Pres
ident Theodore Shaffer, of the Anal
gamated association, came to town
early this morning from Detroit but

Guthrie, o. T., May 15.-As an af-
termath of the big storm at Snyder,
three separate and distinct mild

territory today, doing great damage
but fortunately causing no loss of life
though a number of people were more
or less seriously hurt. The storms
have crippled the telephone and tele-
graph systems and details are almost
impossible to obtain.
The first storm swept through the
hamlet of Bryan, which suffered
slightly from last weeks cyclone, and
Is said to have blown down some
thirty houses in the town. Fortunate
ly the people had ample warning and
taade for the storm cellars so that
rome were killed although some were

THE REMAINS or
JOHN PAUL JONES
NOT LIKELY TO ARRIVE HERE ON
JULY 4.
Would Interfere With Long Standing
Custom Of American Navy--Date
Will Be Delayed.

Washington, d. c., May 15.-It is
probable that a. change will be made
in the date of embarkation at Havre,
France, of the remains of John Paul
Jones. It had been the intention to
embark the remains of the, great Am
erican naval officer on July but Rear
Admiral Converse, of the bureau of
navigation has urged that the date be
changed.
Admiral Converse explained that
July was a day of jollifcationr for
the seamen of the American navy,
that on that day. under the regula-
tions of the service, every vessel of the
navy is required to fire national
salute and that the flags are always
fiown from the peak and not under
any circumstance, at half mast.
1t would be utterly impossible, 1t is
said at the naval department to fol-
low the proposition of Ambassador
Porter and have the remains Of Paul
Jones disembarked in this country on
July 4. The feet, under the command
of Rear Admiral Sigsbee, selected to
bring the remains to this country could
not possibly be gotten in condition in
time to go to France, get the remains
and be back at Annapolis by July 4.
1t now seems probable that the re-
mains will be taken aboard the Amer
ican feet about July II. They will be
brought to Annapolis Monday and
temporarily placed in the vault 1t is
the intention later to bury them in the
magnificent new memorial chapel now
under construction at the naval acad-
emy.

And So, According to Report, the-Wlfe
Must Now. Appear in
Court.

Indianapolis, Ind, May ia young
married woman's chance meeting with
an unmarried man during the presen-
tstion of "Parsifal," at the English
opera house a few weeks ago: a quiet
supper after the call OF the unmarried
man OIL the married woman few
nights later when hubby was alb
sent;' the second call of the man and
the husbands appearance when the
wife and her caller were enjoying a
wine supper; a scene and the husband
forcibly taking their child and disap-
Fearing after Wild interview with
Lis wife, are allegations which were
narrated in circuit court Monday,
where Mrs. Edith Skillman asked for
divorce from Paul V. Skillman.
With trembling voice, Mrs. Skill
man, a charming young woman of ed
ucation and refinement, admitted
meeting the man and taking supper
with him, but said that She did 1t be-
cause she suspected the man was a
spy sent by her husband to tempt
her.
Mrs. Skillman was formerly a
stenographer in the lew Office of Mayor
John W. Hoffman and Judge ]. M.
Leathers, and she married Skillman in
1900, after a courtship of year.
Skillman is a draughtsman.
Skillman is fighting his wife's at
tempt to get divorce. He disclaims
sending the young man to spy, and
his attorney will attempt to show
that the man in question was one
George Lewis, who called on Mrs
Skilman many times and even car
essed her at her mothers gate.
