SUES FOR HIS STOCK
Mining Share Promoter Has Trouble In
Collecting His Pay.

Collecting His Pay.
Revelations of the inner workings of
the Bonanza Queen Gold Mining company
were made at the office of the clerk Of
the United States district court today
when George D. Emery filed a complaint
against Llzzette F. Morgan and a garni-.
shee summons against the Northwestern
Mutual Life Insurance company.
1t seems that Emery, who is a Spokane
attorney, was engaged by the company
to act as legal adviser and promoter and
did SO act for four years. When it came
to settlement. The company wished to
pay in the same stock which he had been
urging upon. the public This did not
.look good" to Emery, but he finally
accepted $4,000 shares Of the stock, nom
inally worth 81 a share.
Mrs. Morgan held heavy interest
from the estate of her husband and,
rather than see the Bonanza Queen sued,
she offered at least so Emery alleges,
to give bonus Of $4,000 shares. Emery
brings suit, to recover the $4,000 shares
of stock or $4,000 damages for their
non-delivery, and has brought in the
Northwestern Mutual in the hopes of
finding money due Mrs. Morgan in its
hands.

ASKS FOR THE PAPERS
Attorney for Marclniak VIII Present Case
to Supreme Court.

i "A. b. jackson, who is in Washington
arranging for the appeal of the case of
the state against Val Marciniak, who
was denied a jury trial in police court,
has sent for the opinion, briefs and other
documents in connection with the case
and there is now no doubt that the case
will be taken to the highest court.
The trial by jury was denied in view
of a former decision Of the supreme court,
which held that a man arrested for vio-
lating a city ordinance could not demand
a jury trial. The present case was APP
pealed to the, state supreme court, but
that court refused to reverse Its former
decision.
