Vacant Lot at Address Given as That Of
IF. W. Robinson"
Superintendent OF N.
P.KnOWS of No Such
Conductor.
The City Directory Has
Overlooked Myster=
iOus Man , Years.

Attempts to get at the inside facts
In the American association muddle
over the Owens matter are battling.
Search today reveals that the "F. w.
Robinson the man who testified that
he was offered $40 to bear false wit
ness against the accused umpire, is as
hard to find in Minneapolis as the three
men who made the affdavits for City
Clerk Lydiard' S private detective, &C
cusing Owens of gambling on games.
In the story sent out from Chicago
Robinson was made to appear as the
big witness for the defense. He was
described as "railroad conductor run,
ming out of Minneapolis on the North,
ern Pacific,' and his residence was
given as 1922 Dupont avenue.'
Not on Northern Pacific.
Today the superintendent of the
Northern Pacific declared that there
was no such man running on that road
out of Minneapolis.
Neither the city directory for 1905
nor the new directory of 1906 bears
the name or SuCh man.
No. 1922 Dupont avenue N is u
vacant lot.
There is no such number as 1922
Dupont avenue S.
The bartender at Hayden $ saloon
where it was alleged in Chicago tina
the man Briggs made the offer tt
Robinson,' says that he does no
know any man of that name among
those who frequent the place.
This witness was turned up in be
half of Umpire Owens by Private De
tectiye N. W. King.
Directors Look to Lyliard.
There is nothing further doing in tn
line of establishing the Identity o
truthfulness of the evidence Of tn
three men whose affidavits were turne'
up by Fred Briggs. The directors o
the club are looking to Mr.. Lydiar
to take care of that end of the affair.
Walter D. Boutell, one of the leadin
directors of the club, has just returne
from the east. ~ knew nothing of tn
affair." said he today, "until saw

Local Opinion.
Opinion about the city seems to tax
the trend that the local club and Sc
rotary Lydiard were 'sucked into'
bad deal The directors and manage
of the club are men known locally
be far above STOPPING to anything lii
conspiracy to edo up' Owens.
If the evidence produced by the pl
vate detective was false and secure
thru the paying of money, the expla
alton must be forthcoming from tt
man who worked up the case. The on
criticism heard is that Mr.. Lydia
should have looked into the testimol
offered by this private detective cal
fully before he acted upon it.

Chicago, Aug. 3.-Punishment by

grand jury as the maximum penalty for
attacks on women. The recommended
ton was made in it's final report, which
was handed Judge Dupuy. Changes in
existing laws prescribing punishment
for assailants of children also were
The action of the grand jury is the
result of the long -continued prevalence
in Chicago of such attacks, extending
over a period since the murder of Mrs
Bessie HOLSTER.
The grand jury also indirectly recon-,
mended the enactment of a curfew law
declaring that most crimes are com
mitted after 10 pm, and that, with
few exceptions, the criminals are young
persons.

THE WHITE
MOUNTAINS

The White Mountain range is a
narrow uplift rising out of the bed
of the Great Basin, in which sur
prising discoveries of gold and cop
per have recently been made. To-
nopah, Goldfeld, Bullfrog, Manhat-
tan and Greenvater are but the be-
ginning the unbolting of the door
to innumerable treasures in the
American Desert.
The White Mountains, about 100
miles in length. extend along the
western side of the Basin, paralleling
on the east, the Sierra Nevada.
From Mount Whitney's peak, apex
ing the Sierra Nevada, and the high
est point in the United States, you
can look eastward across the White
Mountains and distinctly see the rim
of Death Valley. the lowest area of
dry land in the United States. The
parched bed of this valley is about
400 feet below sea level. Mount
Whitney and Death Valley are both
in Inyo County, California.
The White Mountain range runs
from Esmeralda County, Nevada,
southerly into Inyo County, Califor-
MIA, where It terminates. In this
southern end lies the Cerro Gordo
mines with a record bullion product
of over $17,00O,000.
This range is one of the several
uplifts which form the general sys-
tenn of mountains traversing the
wonderful desert basin. 1t is in
tersected throughout its entire
length of 100 miles by road, APP
prCxinlately parallel, mineralized
zones, some carrying chiefly gold
Others copper and others argentifer-
Gus galena, and the whole presents
a most inviting field for the geolo-
gists, mineralogis,ts and miners.
Mexicans were here in the sos
and SOS. Remains of their crude
smelters and primitive arastras are
found at various points in the gulch'
es and canyons; but they were sur
face miners only, and the Indians
were hostile, water scarce, food sup
plies hundreds of miles distant
That they erected works and did
their shallow mining under such
dificulties are proofs that values lie
in the White Mountains awaiting
methods of modern miners, under ia
vorable conditions. Streams in the
nearby Sierras can supply power.
A railroad now runs along the west
srn base of the range and fertile
valley lies at its feet.
