Will APPEAL
CORNWELL CASE
Special to Evening Teller.

Special to Evening Teller.
MOSCOW, Sept. 2.-Attorney S. S.
Denning has stated he will appeal to
the supreme court in the case of Rich
ard Conwell VS.. the village trustees Of
the village of Culdesac.
The action is one brought by Con-
well in the district court asking for a
writ of prohibition to prevent the
trustees from taking action to remove
Conwell from the position of town
marshal.
The trustees several weeks ago de-
clared the position of marshal to be
vacant and appointed successor to
Conwell. The matter was taken to the
district court, where an order to re-
instate Conwell on the grounds Of not
having been given trial, was secured.
After his reinstatement the trustees
entered proceedings to have him re-
moved by trial and to prevent this
action the writ of prohibition was
asked.
| The decision of District Judge Steele
| in which the petition of Conwell was
denied, was submitted last week.

RURILsoN's BROTHER DISAPPEAR
More Mystery Added to Seattle Trunk
Murder


Murder.
VAN COUVER, B. c., Oct. Burt
Burilson half brother of Charles Buril-
son, wanted for the murder of Mrs.
True McCombs Covington, whose body
was found in a trunk at South Alki
last Sunday, has disappeared from his
home at Vancouver, B. c. He sold out
his belongings and quietly left that city
about September g. He gave no init
nation as to where he was going, why
he was leaving the city, or what had
prompted him to take the sudden move
The information contained in the
telegram is the first that the police
have been able to obtain from VAN
couver When the murder case was
first investigated it was found that
Burilson had either brother, or other
near relative of the same name, living
in Vancouver, B. G. 1t was also ascer-
tanned that his relative there was a
great friend, and that he would posi-
bly, help the supposed murderer. The
police at Vancouver at first was I'M
able to get the address of the relatives,
but within the last couple of days they
obtained the information contained in
the telegram.
1t is the belief of the police that
Burt Burilson is possibly with the
wanted men. The fact that he left so
suddenly just at the time the murder
was committed is significant in the
eyes of the police.
No message has yet been received
from Katalla regarding the murder
suspects. They are supposed to be
there by this time and at work, If they
indeed sailed north. However, United
States Commissioner Britton, to whom
the message was sent, has made no re-
ply. Chief wappenstein will send an
other message there today asking for
some sort of an answer to the original
cablegram.
Chief Wappenstein last night re-
ceived from his old friend, Chief of
Police John ]. o'Connor, a long
letter from st, Paul bearing on the
Covington. case. The Seattle chief
thinks the Eastern end of the chase
may bear fruit if the Alaska clew fails.
