WRIT OF CERTIORARI
APPLICATION THEREFOR FILED
IN q. 8. SUPREME COURT.

William Nixon and Herbert Peters.
through Attorneys Almond W. Scott and
Marion T. Clinkseales, today filed In the
Supreme Court Of the United States petit
ton for writ of certiorari to the Court Of
Appeals of the District of Columbia to re-
view the record In their cases recently de-
cided by that court.
Nixon and Peters were originally tried in
the Police Court of the District of Column
bia upon six informations charging them
with six offenses of petit larceny. They
were arraigned and pleaded guilty to all of
the said offenses the same day, and the
Judge thereupon imposed sentences upon
the two defendants upon three of the said
informations. aggregating three hundred
and sixty-four days In the District jail
The court deferred the imposition of SEN
fences upon the remaining three informa-
tons until ten months thereafter. at which
time the defendants were brought again
into court and sentences imposed upon each
Of them, aggregating six months
The defendants thereupon applied to
Justice Barnard of the Supreme Court of
habeas corpus, which was granted and
made returnable two days thereafter. Pc
titioners contended In their petition that
the Police Court judge disreearded section
934 of the District code which prohibits the
imposition of cumulative sentences Ia the
District jail by Police Court judge which
aggregate more than year in the JAIL
and further that the action on the part
Of the Judge in deferring the imposition OF
the last three sentences for such an unrea-
sonably long time was clearly an attempt
to evade the provisions of said section s34
Contentious Sustained.
At the hearing before Judge Barnard the
contentious of the petitioners were sustain
ed and the petitioners were released from
custody. The government, through its at
torney. thereupon noted an appeal to the
Court of Appeals of the District OF Column
bfa and this came on for hearing upon an
appeal in said court in January. The court
subsequently rendered decision reversing
the Judgment of the court below.
The following Is the concluding paragraph
OF the petition of the petitioners: That
should the decision OF the Court of Appeals
in this case stand. then Police Court
Judge in the District of Columbia will have
the power to sentence a person convicted of
100 petit offenses to the jail for 100 years
And such unlimited power is in direct con-
fiict with section 054 of the District code
and against the win of Congress, who had
II in mind to limit the power of q Police
Court Judge when they passed said act"

TODAY ON ITS REPORTS.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, March 1.-THE
convention OF the United Mine Workers Of
America was called to order today by Vice
president I. L. Lewis. who explained that
president Mitchell was busy at national
headquarters. The credentials committee
announced that they had not completed
their report. and recess was taken until
this afternoon.
The anthracite miners scale committee
will make reply to the anthracite opera
tors refusal to grant any OF their demands
This reply probably will be long and will
deal separately with each Of the miners
propositions and the operators refusal.
The agreement will be drafted by SUBJ
committee of seven and will be submitted
to the committee as whole before the
indianapolis conference ends. The plan Is
to have the reply ready so there will be
no delay In dealing with the anthracite
situation after the indianapolis meeting
adjourns.
This course OF action means that the
miners national convention will not take
up the anthracite question in detail. 1t
VIII, however. indorse the work and plans
OF the anthracite miners and pledge sup
port.
VIII Modify Demands.
There indications that the miners. in
making their reply, will modify SONS Of
their demands. and thus make another eff
fort for peaceful settlement

Coal Company. and leader of the bitumin-
Gus operators, arrived today. He came
ahead of the sixty independent operators,
who will begin to arrive tomorrow night.

eral conferences with John Mitchell and
the Indiana, Ohio and Illinois operators In
an effort to swing the operators into line

Stray Dog Manhattan

Net returns from ore shipments made
by the Stray Dog management during
July were in excess of $4,000 and it is
the purpose to increase August con-
signments to at least $4,000. Opera
tions are being prosecuted with three
full shifts of miners and all blocks
formerly under lease are now being
worked by the company. At a depth of
100 feet a erosscut is being run out to
intersect the main ledge, from which
the leasers mined a tonnage of high
value last spring. Recently a new ledge
was uncovered at the 100-foot level
that assays as high as 1888 in gold a
ton, but this vein is not the one that
was worked by the leasers.

The Indian Camp

Twelve feet of milling ore is show
ing in the crosscut that is being run on
the Indian Camp for the purpose of tap
ping the well mineralized ledge which
crops up at surface. Shaft sinking has
been resumed and is to continue until
a depth of 300 feet is attained, when
the ground is to be tested by a series
of crosscuts and laterals. Placer min
ers on the Indian Camp are cleaning up
about three ounces of gold dust a day
per man. The gold is frequently asso-
ciated with quartz, a circumstance
which denotes that the ledge from
which it was washed is not far distant.
Sam Newhouse, the Utah mining mag
nate, this week offered so cents a share
for the control of the Indian Camp and
the Stray Dog, but his offer was de-
clined.
