Absolute silence reigned as Score.

New York Manager Declares
That Blanche Bates Will

Says He Will Buy a Theater

Special Dispatch to The Call.

PORTLAND, Or, Jan. 19.-"Play
Portland at any price. If you can't
rebuild the Lyric, lease theater. If
you can't lease, buy one.''
The above message from David Be-
lasco in New York was received to-
day by M. B. Kirby, agent for Blanche
Bates, who has been threatened by
the theater trust with disbarment for
playing in her home city. 1t was
found on closer study that the pro-
posed rebuilding of the Lyric, a
vaudeville house. could not be accom-
plished in the time required. Even
the sanguine contractor who promised
to do the big task finally acknowl-
edged he had overestimated his abil-
ity.
The plan is now to lease the Grand,
one of the Oldest playhouses, which
was recently enlarged and fitted up
by Sullivan and Considine.
The local manager of the Grand
says: IF Blanche Bates plays at the
Grand her management will have to
make good the salaries of the vaude-
vile artists engaged for that week
the salaries of the house employees,
our regular weekly profit and a big
rental besides. 1t will cost Belasco
not a cent less than $4,000, and pos

Denver Paper Describes the
Manner in Which the Uin-
tab Acres Were COrnered

DENVER, Jan. 19.-Following up its
expose of the alleged Uintah land grab,
the Post tonight reviews the history of
the affair. John ellison, after whom
gilsonite is named, located the beds on
the reservation in 1885. Through c. w.
Baxter of st. Louis he interested
Adolphus Busch and his associates in
the brewing company. They formed
the Gibson Asphaltum Company, and in
1886 it purchased from the Government
tract south of Fort Duchesne for
$4,000, which has been almost worked
out.
In 1887 Congress empowered the In
dians to grant leases subject to the ap-
proval of the Secretary of the Interior.
Then the American Asphalt Company
was formed by New York men and it
secured leases to 1926 acres of land
inside the reservation. The two COM
panies began fight which resulted in
the absorption of the leases the latter
held ultimately by the Raven Mining
Company, formed by the Busch syndi-
cate Later the same men formed the
Florence Mining Company. 1t secured
a lease on $40 acres of land in the Uin-
tab Mountains. Then, according to the
Post, the Busch syndicate began an in
vasion of the Uncompahgre reserva-
ton, to the east of the Uintah tract, to
secure control of the elaterite fields.
1t is alleged that there was much
lobbying at Washington and that after
it secured the claims of many people on
the Uncompahgre tract Senator Kearns
secured the passage of a bill validating
these rights, which were questioned at
the time. 1t is alleged that other legis-
lation has been secured through pow
erful lobby and the expenditure of
large sums, clinching the hold of the
syndicate on the gilsonite and elaterite
deposits. The prominent men whose
names have been connected with the
case are alleged to be identified with
either the Raven or the Florence COM
panies, which are controlled by the
same interests. In conclusion, the Post
says:
Three weeks ago the ellison Asphalt
um Company of st. Louis was dis
solved, but all its holdings had previ-
ously been transferred to the American
Asphalt Company of New Jersey, a
Barber concern. In other words, Busch
and Barber have Joined hands and are
preparing to continue the fight for
Utah's minerals with unabated vigor."

Dunn Will Now Be Tried

Instead of Acknowledging
Their Guilt in Open Court

CRESCENT CITY, Jan, 1s-Harry
Brown and Frank Kelly, the young
tramps. who recently confessed to the
authorities here that they were the
murderers of George Dunn, an aged
miner, who was beaten to death In his
cabin on the Grants Pass and Crescent
City road, caused a sensation in court
to-day when they entered pleas of not
guilty and demanded separate trials.
Inasmuch as the prisoners had made a.
full confession Of the terrible crime to
the Sheriff and District Attorney it was
believed that they would plead guilty
when arraigned, in the hope of escap-
ing with life imprisonment in the peni-
tentiary.
Keliy's case was set for trial Febru-
ary and at its conclusion Brown will
be placed on trial for his life.

ROONEY Will,
NOT GENUINE
Judge Coffey Declines to
Admit Alleged Testament
OF Old Woman to Probate

| 1T is the courts opinion, after a
very careful and laborious examina-
ton, that the paper is not genuine,
and it is denied probate
These words, in effect a Judgment
that some one has been guilty of at
tempting to perpetrate forgery upon
the court, concludes an eight-page
opinion, written by Judge Coffey, in
deciding the contest against the alleged
! wills of Mary Rooney
Mary Rooney was a working woman
who. accumulated about $4,000 in her life
time of toll. She suffered a stroke of
paralysis and died in January of last
year. In February her sister, Bridget
Spafford, applied for letters of admin
istration upon the estate, and in March
Mary Ryan, with whom Mrs. Rooney
had lived, presented what purported to
be two wills. Mrs. Spafford contested
their admission to probate. and a trial
followed, in which 1t was charged that
the instruments were not genuine. Both
papers were dated October s. 1903.
after the stroke of paralysis. One of
them related to burial and expressed a
desire that the sister should have moth
ing to do with the affairs of the de-
ceased The other purported to dispose
of the property lot to a nephew,
some bequests for masses, $50 to Father
Grant, s4OO to Mrs. Ryan and S1OO each
to Mrs. Catherine Conroy and Mrs.
Elizabeth Bradley, who signed as wit
nesses to the will. 1t was contended
that both papers were written and
signed at the same time.
In the trial it was proved that Mrs.
Rooney had not met Father Grant un-
til month after the will was made, al
though he was well known to Mr..
Ryan. The court, in comparing the
two documents and those with exem-
plars of admittedly genuine handwrit-
ing of the deceased, found that both
could not have been written and signed
by the same hand. There were many
resemblances between letters and
words in the exemplars and the alleged
wills, but the court declared it would
have been unwise to attempt to palm
off fabricated instrument unless there
was more or less close imitation of
the genuine handwriting. 1t was in
stanced that on the back of some of
Mrs Rooneys acknowledged writings
there were evidences of the effort OF
some penman to initiate certain letters.
Among the discrepancies in the wills
themselves were different ways of
making the letter M: Rooney was
spelled Rooney and ''roney"; the
words 'one' and wan appeared, and
there were interlineations in different
hand.

sidewalk Lines Established.

AS the result of the resurvey of the
lines of Sansome, Merchant and Clay
streets, made by City Engineer Wood
ward, the building proposed to be
erected at the corner of Sansome and
Clay streets by the Cowell estate will
have to be set back eighteen inches
frcm the sidewalk. line. The lines
have been in dispute for several
months and investigation disclosed
that while the architects of the build
ing were about to encroach eighteen
inches on Sansome street they were
entitled to eighteen inches more of
frontage on the Clay-street side, thus
making up for the loss of ground on
Sansome street. All the houses on
Sansome street project on the side
walk line as officially designated, one
building encroaching as much as
twenty-one inches. City Architect
Shea took steps several weeks ago to
prevent further operations on the
buildings pending the settlement Of

chieaqo's Civil War.

From the Ncw York World.
Chicago's civil war IS a direct consc-
auence of Chicago's bad government.
The police are powerless to maintain
order because they have never been
taught to maintain order.
For years the city has been tempoI-
izing with an its elements OF lawlcss-
ness. Disorder was not put down with
a. strong hand. Rioting was not sup
pressed. Criminals were not punished.
The city government followed the line
of least resistance and the results are
seen In the civil conflict
The strikers assume that they have
natural right TO smash heads and
kin "scabs." The employers on their
part assume that they have a natural
night to equip an army OF their OWL
TO shoot down the mob. The large and
aggressive criminal element Of the city
ends IN a condition Of civic anarchy
new license TO pray upon defenseless
citizens
Chicago has played with lawlessness
so many years that her administrative
faculties are paralyzed New policemen
are sworn I'm by the hundred, but riot
ing and violence continues unchecked
Nobody expects the police to restore
order. The city authorities do not even
appreciate their helplessness Chicago
In various ways is paying a heavy
price for long-continued bad govern
ment at the hands Of its demagogues.
