MINIS IN TROUBLE.
Former PendletOn Man Makes Gun
Play I'm Goldfields.

A special from Goldfields. New. to
the San Francisco Examiner. speak
ing OF a recent embroglio and gun
play by f. L. Minis formerly of this
city, says:
After a day of more or less sensa-
tional incidents, including several
gun plays that at times looked decid-
edly serious, another chapter in the
Mims-Sutro Bleakmore Lang contest
for possession and control of the af-
fairs of the liquidated brokerage firm
of Mims-Sutro company, was this
afternoon concluded in the discharge
of K. L. Minis, at his preliminary ex-
animation on a charge Of having
broken into the office of Bleakmore
and stolen the books and papers be-
longing to the latter.
Early this morning Minis entered
the office, on Main street, and engas-
ed in an alteration with w. L. Lang
and others of the office force. He
and Lang soon came to blows, ana
a shooting affray was avoided only
after extreme measures by bystand-
ers. Later Minis and two of his EN-
ployes returned and for a time there
was the gravest danger of a general
battle between the opposing forces
Firearms were in general evidence.
and it was expected that a tragedy
would occur before the day had
passed.
At the trial the attorneys Tor Minis
tried every trick of the law 10 pre-
vent the issuance of an amended
complaint. During the examination
the prosecution presented eight wit
nesses to show that on the morning Of
June II Minis had entered the place
of business, and, at the point of a re-
volver. cleared it out, afterwards loot
ing the safe of books and papers,
which were later secretly expressed
away.
Minis defense was that an agree
ment. entered into on June 13. for
the purchase by Bleakmore of the
office and business of the old firm,
was consummated without authority
although Emil Sutro who conducted
the deal and received $4,000 as part
payment, presented a statement sign
ed by Minis authorizing him to act
for the firm.
An effort on the part of the attor-
neys for the state to prove ownership
of the premises and the validity OF
the transfer was ruled out as incom-
petent evidence by Justice Bell, who
refused to admit any testimony rela-
tive to the sale of the firms property
This gave the defendants attorney a
decided advantage in contending that
Minis was taking only property be-
longing to himself.
Tonight the atmosphere is some
what clearer as Minis and his follow
ers chartered an automobile and left
! for Tonopah.

Lewiston, July 5.-Yesterday one
of the o. Il. & N. surveying crews en-
gagged in work on the Lewiston- Ri
paria road was brought by the steam
er Lewiston from Almonta to a point
three miles below the city at the j.
II. Evans place, where the crew will
start work today.
This afternoon the steamer Spokane
will bring a second crew to this end
of the line. The surveying work is
being carried out with the greatest
possible expedition, this fact illustrat-
ing the purpose of the company to as
early as possible award the construc-
tion contracts.
From information secured yester-
day it is also learned that within a
very few days the Northern Pacific
will be in a position to make an an
nouncement as to the route that has
been selected for the prairie line.
1t is reported that Chief Engineer
Pearson will soon visit here to make
final, personal investigation of the
situation and consult with Engineer
CioSWell anu lHe Delu men Wnen a
decision will be reached.
There are conditions that favor the
making of Lewiston the terminal of
the line and there are other condi-
tions which favor the proposed Guide
sac route. Several days ago, when the
crew a twork on the Culdesac sur
vey reached Culdesac it was announc-
ed that satisfactory grade to the
latter point had been found. This
being the case, the construction of
the line from that point would entail
less cost than il built from Lewiston
and entrance to this city could be Sc
cured over the lewiston -Culdesac
line.
On the other hand, if the line is
built to Lewiston more territory would
be directly served while the expense
of the road would be somewhat great
er. The benefits that would result
to Lewiston by this point being made
the direct terminal can quickly be ap-
preciated by every citizen.
In this connection it can be stated
that a strong local effort through
certain influential sources has been
made and is being made to have the
Northern Pacific bring the line direct
ly to the city, and it is hoped this
splendid effort will be backed up and
be successful.

BEST TIP HE EVER GOT.
Surprise That Awaited u Waiter In "a
Cincinnati Hotel.

Melville T.. Ingalls, former presi-
dent of the Big Four railway sys-
tenn, who was recently i'm the Waldorf
Astoria, tells this story of a walters
tip:
81 was lunching alone in a Cincin-
natl hotel not long ago. A man who
sat at small table close to me cas-
ually asked his waiter how business
was.
"'Oh, replied the garcon bravely,
the house is doing a good business.
all right sir, but there's nothing do
ing for us what does the waitin'.'
Indeed? Well, l am sorry to
hear things are not coming your way
said the other. Personally, | have al
ways treated our craft i'm this house
generously, and | can say the same
for many others l know who come
here
Nothing more was said on the sub
ject until the diner, who l could see
was somewhat nettled, got up to
leave, Turning to the waiter, who
was right at hand and no doubt ex-
pecting something generous after
his plain hint the diner patted him
gently on the shoulder and said to
him:
My friend. you seem to be dis
contented with your lot, and for that
I'm going to give you the best tip you
ever got-get into some other bust
ness New York Globe.

MOHAIR SELLING Low.
Goat Raisers Not Sharing the Pros
perity of the Sheepmen.

Domestic mohair is lower at the
present than it has been in several
years. In fact, comparatively speak
ing. 1t is decidedly cheaper than wool,
says the New York Commercial.
Prices range all the way from csc for
the lowest grades, up to 40c for the
finest clips.
For rough-fac goods it offers,
under present condition, excellent val
ues, which the domestic cloth manu-
facturer does not, as yet, seem to re-
alize. Buyers claim that stocks are
large and steadily piling up, while
those thoroughly in touch with the
situation are holding firmly to what
ever stock they have, feeling assured
that there will be no lack of demand
for it.
The demand for mohair dress goods
has been very good this spring and
summer, whites being excellent sell
lers for summer wear. The felt trade
is counted upon to take fairly liberal
supplies this fall, while carpet mills
are grinding quite a little for bright
finished rugs. Additional firmness
has been added to the domestic mar
ket by an advance of one penny per
pound on Turkish and other foreign
grades of mohair.
