SCHMITz IN
CUSTODY OF
THE SHERIFF
Langdon Will Contest Convicted
Mayors Application for
Bail.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 14.-The
mayor of the city, Eugene E. Schmitz,
who was convicted last night of the
crime of extortion, is still in the Gus
tody of the sheriff. While it is not
definitely known where he is being
held, the supposition is that he
is spending the night at his residence
ana is being Sguarded by a deputy
sheriff. Sheriff O'Neil refuses to tell
where the mayor is, and the prosecu-
ton say they do not know.
L angdon will contest the application
and the matter of accepting bail will
rest in the< discretion of the Judge.
The principal ground on which the
mayor will ask for release on bail
is that 1t is necessary that he be
free to transact public business.
In the event that he is denied, the
prosecution contends that the duties
of mayor will devolve upon Super
visor James Gallagher, who is chair
man of the financecommittee, and
who has been granted immunity in
the graft cases."
1t was learned at midnight that
Mayor Schmitz was ''in quarters" at
the branch county Jail No 2, located
near Ingleside.

BULLFROG Dis.
TRICT IS IN
fine SHAPE

TONOPAH, June 14.-Thomas
Il. Edwards, one of the best-known
mining men in Southern Nevada, and
who was Bob Montgomery's partner
in the Montgomery Shoshone mine,
is visitor in the city, having come
here from the south.
1.-THE BullfrOg country is fine con-
dition, physically" said "Mr. Ed
wards, "for the mines never were I'm
better shape, and they promise to do
better from this on. OF course the
district has been kept back by the
lack of production, or, rather, by lack
of reduction. But this is a condition
that will not last long for the big
mill of the Montgomery Shoshone
will soon be In operation. The latter
is being delayed by the non-arrival
of some parts of the machinery.
1.-The mine itself is in excellent
shape. To be sure they are not ship
ping a great deal of ore, for the rea-
son that the mine is milling propo-
sition, but at that there Is some high
grade ore going out all tho time. The
Denver has made a good strike, and
it is improving right along, and the
out look on all sides is encouraging.
1.-The mines in Goldfield and this
camp are all in fine condition and are
making good, Notwithstanding the de-
preston in the market. The physical
condition Is sound. | know this by
actual observation and by informa-
tion which was not given me for pub
lication. The stock depression can
not last long In the natural order OF
things. The mines are looking too
weell and the production Of ore be-
coming too great to permit the stocks
to sell for the present low prices"

FEDERATION TO
HELP STRIKERS
AT BISBEE
VOTE DOWN RESOLUTION AP-
PROPRIATING $4,000 TO
THE CAUSE.
AN ITALIANS PITIFUt sTORx
Acting President MahOney Denies
Miners Refused to Fly the
American Flag

DENVER, June 14.-The strike at
Bisbee, Arizona, was broLght to the
attention of the Western Federation
of Miners this afternoon by the fol.
lowing resolution:
That the executive board be in
structed to take up the question of
the Bisbee strike with the delegates
from Bisbee and render such assist
ance and support as may be in the
power of the board to the Bisbee
strikers and that the board select a
man to be sent to Bisbee.
An amendment appropriating $780,
900 to the cause of the strike was
voted down after a prolonged discus
sion and the motion was carried In
its original form. This means the
whole power of the federation will
be put forth to win the Bisbee strike.
Acting President Mahoney stated
that men have been sent to Joplin,
Mo-. where they are offering $4.25
and $3.50 day with free transporta-
tiOn to miners to go to Bisbee. He
said he made arrangements for a
camp of publicity in Joplin, SO that
miners here would not he tempted
to go to Bisbee.
Teofilo Petriella, a graduate of a
prominent Italian university, gave a
most pitiful report of the condition
of the miners in the Mesaba range,
in Minnesota. He described camps
where the. men lived like worms and
starved half the year that they might
eat the other half.
1t was reported today that the fed
GRAFTON had refused to fly the Amer
ican flag in honor of flag day over the
building in which the convention is
being held. This is untrue, and the
president ordered the flag put up
himself.

BODIES FOUND
OF MINNESOTA'S
LAUNCH VICTIMS
Recovered i'm Eighteen FathOms I
Water and Mystery is
Still UnsOlVed.

NEWPORT NEWS, Va, June IA
With canopy frame crushed but the
canvas still tightly fastened down,
the missing launch of the battleship
Minnesota was located in 27 feet OF
water, about 2,700 feet west by south
of Fort Wool this afternoon about
o'clock. Across the little craft was
a tell-tale piece of towing line serving
to convince the naval officers that
they are right in their theory that the
kind, in tow of tug.
The diver who went down to ex-
anime the launch reported that the
head and arms of three men were
protruding from beneath the canvas
covering, the men having made a
desperate struggle for life when they
were carried down like ratsin trap.
1t will be 8 o'clock tomorrow night
before the launch can be raised and
at the present time no one can know
how many bodies will be found. 1t
is believed that certainly none of the
bodies will be under the canopy. The
fact that uniform caps of Midshipmen
Nlrich and Stevenson were picked up
in the Roads indicates that these two
must have succeeded ingetting free
from TIE boat before being drowned
1t is learned tonight that New
York, Philadelphia, and Norfolk car
float passed through the Roads
shortly after Tuesday morning
bound for Cape Charles and Norfolk
The float arrived in Norfolk about
2 O'Clock Tuesday morning, and is
believed to have been directly off the
exposition grounds at the time when
the launch went down inthe same
place.

pampered, petted, hero-like prisoner,
fed from the table of the warden, ad-
dressed as Harry" by Governor
Gooding and Warden Whitney, given
freedom and liberty that no other
prisoner ever had in the world, and
all this consideration implying that
he would never be hanged for killing
Steunenberg. Then came a showing
as to how the prisoner had been
dressed and groomed for the trial,
and lastly, for climax, they showed
Orchard pleading for and saving the
life of Bob ,Wetter, condemned to
death for murder. Orchard admitted
that he had appealed to Governor
Gooding about Wetter, and that later
Gooding first reprieved Wetter and
then commuted his sentence of
death to one of life Imprisonment.
Orchard left the stand at 2:30
O'Clock, after having occupied it for
total of thirty-two and one-half
hours. Just before he was excused
and remanded he went back to the
hands of the prosecution and identi-
fed the casing of the bomb he plant
ed at the gate of Judge Goddard s
house in Denver. Orchard Is to re-
turn to the witness chair later be-
cause the defense must lay the formal
lines for impeaching him and the
state must still have its redirect ex-
animation. After Orchard left the
stand the state began the corrobora-
tion of the Bradley poisoning story.
Mrs. Sadie Swan, who as Miss Sadie
Bell, was maid in the Bradley
home; Oliver Crook, the milkman
who sold the milk that was poisoned,
and P. l.. McCreary, the chemist who
analyZed the poisoned milk, carried
the revolving tale from the discovery,
because of its bitterness, that the
milk was poisoned, through to the
analysis that showed from forty to
sixty grain of strychnine In quart
of it. Mrs. Swan identified Orchard
and connected him with the house
they all confirmed the date as within
three DR. four days of the explosion
and Mrs. Swan that she opened the
front door to get the morning paper
a few minutes before the explosion
and saw nothing ON the steps. There
will be further testimony as to the
Bradley incident tomorrow.
Immediately after the noon recess
Former Governor Peabody or Colo
RADIO met Harry Orchard in the office
of counsel for the prosecution. The
meeting was unexpected as far as
Orchard was concerned, and when he
saw Peabody advancing toward him
with hand outstretched, he blanched

S"Oh, that's all right" said Pea

Orchard began crying, and wher
Peabody succeeded in reassuring him
I said: II am glad that l did not xii

thought of that crime at least"
Orchard and Peabody spent fifteeI
or twenty minutes together and part
ed In very friendly manner.

EXTREME DULLNESs
OF STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK, June 1.-THE dull
ness of the stock market became ex-
treme yesterday and reached a stage
of absolute stagnation in the after
noon. Dealings were little more
than half as large as yesterday.
Even the professional traders desist-
ed from their futile efforts to effect
any movement of prices. The con-
victio mis- growing that special care
will be required to meet the July 1st
requirements with a damaging pinch
in money resources. Weakness in
the London copper market was an in
fiuence in this market yesterday.
helping the copper indstrials heavy
in tone. Two small failures in the
conclusion of the London stock mar
ket settlement and failure on the
Philadelphia stock exchange, with
some sensational features, help to
deaden the international stocks.

HARRY JOHNSON OBTAINS
HIS FREEDOM

According to information obtained
in this city, Harry L. Johnson, the
clerk accused of having left number
of worthless checks before his de-
parture to Salt Lake, has been re-
leased. Johnson was arrested in
Salt Lake upon information from
the sheriff's Office, charging him with
passing worthless checks. The law
permits the holding of man for
only forty-eight hours unless the ne
cessary papers are made out. A de-
lay in obtaining the extradition pa
pers gave the young man his free
dam and he lost no time in de
parting for parts unknown. Where
he went has not been learned, and II
is not likely that anything further
will be done in the matter unless he
returns to Ely, which is. hardly prob
able.

CAUSES OF THE
DEPRESSION OF
= STOCK MARKET
W. b Palmer Returns From New
York and Discusses the National
Business Situation.

That the present depression of the
stock market is due to the attitude
of the people throughout the United
States, principally the administration
in their attack upon the railroads, is
the opinion expressed by w. L. Pal
mer, president of the Ely Townsite
company.
Mr.. Palmer returned Thursday
from New York City, where he
has been for the past few weeks, and
expresses himself as much pleased
with the general activity in Ely, and
which he predicts will constantly be
on the increase.
In speaking of the general dullness
of business throughout the nation,
Mr. Palmer said:
1.-The attacks made by the present
federal administration, coupled with
the recent legislation of many states,
greatly reducing the revenues of the
railroads has had its effect and the
present depression is the result. Peo-
pie don't know where they are at in
the matter of investments and as a
consequence are holding fast to their
money.
Nevada stocks, those of Ely in
cluded, are suffering with the rest.
but it probably will not last for long,
and shortly they will begin to rise. 1t
is simply the attitude of the people
toward the larger corporations that
has caused the hesitancy shown by
investors, and they veil not place
their money either in industries or
in mining stocks until a different as
pect Of the situation appears.
Mr. palunnr ctatnC that the work
at Ely City is a surprise to him and
that he is well pleased with the show
ing in the way of construction that
has been made in the past few weeks.
A large number of residences are
already completed and ready for oc-
cupancy, and the various business
blocks that are now under course of
construction are rapidly being pushed
to completion. He predicts that a
glorious future awaits the whole
county and states that it is one of the
most talked of localities in the entire
state.
