Secretary OF War Oliver today trans
mitted to Colonel Ben jamin Lock
wood, Commandant at Fort Douglas,
and Captain A. S. Brooks, also sta
toned at the fort, severe reprimands
in connection with the conduct of
two officers toward Mrs. Samuel
Newhouse and party when Mrs. New
house, wife of a Salt Lake capitalist,
visited the fort in an automobile
with a party of friends last Febru-
airy.
Mrs. Newhouse complained that
Captain Brooks, though her automo-
bile was proceeding through the fort
grounds at only moderate speed
drew a pistol and fired, causing the
party to come to halt
Captain Brooks claimed the party
was going at such speed that he
feared for the safety of his little
child. In the reprimand Secretary
Oliver says that Brooks conduct was
inexcusable, and that Colonel Lock-
wood should have shown more cour-
tesy in the matter. After Mrs. New
house had made her complaint the
war department sent a special In
spector here to investigate the mat

Mines company. which claims to own
a fabulously rich mine near Silver
City. y. NJ, were arrested today by
Federal officers on indictments re-
turned by the Federal grand jury i'll
session at Pueblo last week. Two
indictments were returned against
each one. charging conspiracy to de-
fraud and using the mails for fraud
ulent purposes. All were released
in bonds of $4,000 each.
The following are the names Of
those taken in custody:
c. S. Blackman of Denver fiscal

Lee Dubois was superintendent OF
the company. and is credited i'll the
prospectus with having discovered
the mine with the aid of a Yaqui In

stories told by the Indians.
Blaekman and Leaven were ar
rested scme time ago when the gov
eminent officials first started an in
vestigation into the affairs of the
Lost bullion company, and are

that time.
The government officials asserted
that the alleged mine is nothing
more than an old cave, and that 1t
has no value as a mine. Some of
the men under arrest say that a large
cattle company is behind their arrest
because the mine is located on their
range, and the Lost Bullion company
controls the wnter In that vicinity

Interesting Point Argued.

Los Angeles, April 9.--Whether
or moi it Is constitutional under the
Fourteenth Amendment Of the
United States for any citizen In Cali
fornla to obtain ownership of public
utilities is a question argued yester-
day before United States District
Judge Welborne The case was that
of the Edison Electric company
against the city of Pasadena, disput-
ing the right of the city to buy the
electric lighting plant OF the plaintiff
with money raised by the issuance
and sale of municipal bonds.
Two principal points are at issue.
The corporation alleges that the cleo
ton at which the bonds We're voted
was irregular, If not actually unlaw-
full But more important and far
reaching is the contention that no
municipality in California may en-
gage in competition with private citi-
zens because the state law in this
state provides immunity from taxa
ton to cities, thus affording them an
unfair advantage. The question was
not decided, but will be argued at a
future date
