LOW WANTED
No BLOOD
Why He Didn't Take
Possession Of Parker
Ranch.

/ Were you not sent to get possession
of the Parker ranch?" asked Attorney
Kinney of Eben Low yesterday.
Yes; but 1 found that 1 could not
do it without bloodshed, and I did not
want to resort to that.
| The cross-examination of Low was
still on in Judge Lindsay's court up to
noon yesterday, when the adjournment
ney was still giving Low the time of his
life. 1t was in reference of this send
ing to get possession of the Parker
ranch that the name of ex-Judge Gear
was brought into the case.
| DO you not remember that Magoon
sent you a wireless telling you that he
that you could take possession without
bloodshed?" asked Kinney.
! II don't remember
Then Kinney proceeded to read the
application for an injunction restrain
| ing Carter. He said that Gear had
been just about to sign the injunction
at one time, when a hearing was ask
! ed for.
| Magoon broke in to say this was un-
true, and was unfair to Gear.
! "Ballou and 1 We're both in court"
said Kinney, land Ballou will bear me
out in the statement He insisted
that the hearing had been asked for.
and that it had resulted in the order
not being signed.
! Magoon said that he would have
Gear called to disprove the statement,
which he said was unjust. He would
not have Gear injured by such a state
ment.
All this was as side issue, the ex-
animation of Low yesterday taking a
wide range, and being conducted as lit
| tie to his comfort as that on Friday
had been. Low said that he had fur
nished the information about the tum-
ble-down dairy buildings on the ranch.
Then you were getting information
for this suit as early as March?'' ask
| ed Kinney.

| Did you not swear that you went
lpurposely to the dairy and timed the
revolutions of the cream SEPARATOR
| Il did, but 1 do that everywhere 1
go. l do it on the Horner and Ship
man ranches"
I Did you instigate your brother to
bring suit when you left on the steamer
in March,
NO, sir"
do you deny that you received a
wireless message about this injunc-
tom"
''I'probably did,
| Kinney then asked Magoon to pro-
lduce the wireless messages that had
passed between him and Low on June
II, s, 9 and 10 of last year, and Magoon
said that he remembered nothing about
it.
How could you give testimony that
the. separator on the Parker ranch
made nineteen revolutions a minute in
March," asked Kinney of Low, when
you don't remember about wireless
messages concerning this important
suit in June?"
..Oh. these things stay in my mind
answered Low. '"They interest me.
These legal things 1 don't want to re-
lmember anything about
And that is a sample of how the
y fight went on all the forenoon. There
will be a renewal of it on Monday
morning, and every day morn
