mrs. CHADWICK GUILTY.
Convicted on Seven Counts In Feder-
al Court at Cleveland.


Cleveland, March 13.-Mrs. Cassie
l.. Chadwick has been found guilty Of
conspiracy to violate the United States
banking laws by connspiring to secure
certifcation Of checks on a national
bank when there were no funds in the
bank to her credit. She was found
guilty on every count Of the Indictment
upon which the jury was at liberty to
judge her, seven in all.
The indictment contained sixteen
counts. Two Of these were ruled out
during the trial by Judge Tayler. and
of the remaining fourteen. one half
charged her with securing the certiti-
cation Of checks without having the
proper entries made on the books Of the
bank.
Judge Tayler in his charge directed
the jury to disregard these counts and
consider only the remaining seven,
which related to the certification with
no funds on deposit. On all of these
the jury found against her.
According to the laws she can be
fined on each count not more than
$4,000, nor imprisoned for more than
two years on each count.

LEGISLATURE e1uSt Decide Contest Is

tenant Governor.

Denver, March 14.-The Colorado
supreme court at late hour yesterday
afternoon ruled that the joint oonven-
ton Of the legislature cannot adopt
the report Of Senator Alexander, of the
guben,atorial contest committee, de.
claring that neither Gov. Alva Adams
nor former Gov. Peabody was elected
governor at the November election.
1t is the decisiosn Of the supreme
court that the assembly must decide
the contest between the contestor and
contestee, and cannot consider seating
Lieut.. Gov. Mcdonald as governor.
Was Majority Report.
The opinion was majority report,
Justice Robert W. Steele holding that
the assembly should itself rule upon
the motion to adopt the Alexander re-
port.
Nineteen of the twenty-five Repub-
lican members Of the legislature who
favored seating Lieut.. Gov. Mcdonald
as governor, and thus disposing of the
contest over the seat between Alvs Ad-
AIMS and James H. Peabody, met in
causcus last night and renewed their
pledge to stand together in voting on
the reports from the contest committee
Several Of those present spoke for
the sincerity of the three absent men,
bers, who, they asserted, were una
voidably detained elsewhere. From
unimpeachable sources it is learned
that the twenty two members referred
to signed an agreement which, in
effect, was to work for the seating Of
Mcdonald, and to prevent, if possible,
the seating of Peabody.
viii Vote as Unit.
The persons who are authority for
the above statement also say that these
so-called anti Peabody Republicans
will vote as unit against every report
from the contest committee, which, if
done, will not only defeat Peabody,
but will allow Adams to retain the
governorship he now holds.
After voting down the reports a mo-
ton to adjourn the joint assembly sine
die, it is said, will be made and sup
ported by the Mcdonald men and the
Democrats. This will perhaps end the
contest. However, the Peabody men
smile when the plan above is unfolded
to them, and confidently declare that
the agreement will be broken at the
critical moment and enough and more
Mcdonald men will swing round to
seat their man. They had thirty nine
in caucus last night, with two others
absent but accounted for. and resolved
to use every endeavor to force the issue
and test the Mcdonald men.
1t is probable that the whole matter
will be disposed Of in the next forty
eight hours.

n. P. To Mine COPPER.
Has Begun Work on Exten-
sive Properties in Olym-
pic Mountains.

Tacoma, March 13.-The Ledger
says:
Hing up in the Olympic mountains,
practically on the divide, where the
snow lies deep nearly all the year
around, the Northern Pacific Railway
company is engaging in new mining
enterprise that means much for the
development of the mining industry of
Washington-the opening Of an im.
mense copper property that bids fair to
rival the largest Of the kind in the en-
tirec ountrry. The advent of the
Northern Pacific in copper mining is
distinct innovation in it's mining
activities, and, considering the scale
Of operations entered into in the Olym.
pics, is likely to ultimately become q
close second to it's extensive coal opera.
tions.
The SCOPE of the plan contemplstes
not only the operation Of a group of
nearly 80 exceedingly rich claims. and
the construction of good road through
from Quilcene bay, a distance of about
40 miles, but the erection Of a great
copper smelling plant at the mines or
in close proximity.
First Copper riine in OlympiCs.
Tue development work now being
pushed by the Northern Pacific will
have the distinction Of opening up the
first producing copper mine in the
Olympics. Although the presence of
valuable copper deposits in these noun
tains has long been known to prospect
ors, the rugged nature Of the country
and its almost inaccessi bility has
served heretofore to prevent the devel.
opment Of copper properties. Now the
railroad company, with unlimited le-
sources At command, will thew a way
through the wilderness aud force the
copper-ribbed peaks to yield up their
treasures.
There has Just been dispatched from
Tacoma q party Of eight experienced
men, in charge Of two expert engineers
rfomS t. Paul, to the mine, where q
force of about IS men is already en-.
eyed in development work on the COM
pany's claims. Other parties will be
sent out until the force this summer
will be increased to at least 30 men.
c. R. Claghorn, recently appointed a.
superintendent Of Northern Pacific
mining properties, 10 expected to re.
turn to Tacoma within a few days and
it is also expected that he will pay an
early visit to the Olympic properties,
and perfect plans for their develop
ment.
BeQan Work Last Summer.
The preliminary work was COM
menced last summer by the company,
when the Norther Pacific acquired it,
first claims. Already Q good pack road
has been cut through from Quilcene
bay. up through the mountains to the
Northwest. Tunnels have also been
run in Q abort distance on several Of
the claims, and this summer will wit.
ness good progress in the uncovering Of
the remarkably rich deposits claimed
for the property.
