HEATH SUES GREAT
WESTERN FOR $50, 900

Owing to the great mass Of testi-
mony to be submitted, rather slow
progress is boing made in the case Of
Frank D. Heath vs. The Great West
ern Coal company. which is up for
hearing before Referee C.P. Gehman.
of Denver. The hearing is detail
Of proceedings which were instituted
some months ago, when Frank ID.
Heath secured preliminary injunc
tion to restrain the company fro III
mortgaging the property to them
selves before full and complete
accounting is made.. Heath claims
that the company owes him sum in
tho neighborhood of $50, 600, and
because the com mpauy has large in
debtedness, he wishes to be secure in
the obligation Heath is tho largest
stockholdcr in the concern, but does
not own majority of the stock. He
has also petitioned for n receivership
for the company.
The plaintiff rested yesterday after
noon after spending considerable time
in the examination of last witness
and the production of documentary
evidence. Today the defense will
begin, and, it is understood, will
claim that Heath is indebted to the
company.
In the presentation of his side of
tho case Heath has claimed that the
$50, 600 which is due him from the
company is almost all for the cash
advances made at various times.
Tho Great Western Coal company
was incorporated April 6. 1904. Its
capital stock is 500, 900. The COM
pany owns 800 acres of coal land at
Heathton, about six and u half miles

The International Tug.0-War Asso-

The teams are composed OF the strong.
est and hardest men in the city and
feats of strength which have never been

Much rivalry exists among the mem-

PIoNSHIp CONTEST AT REGATTA

Chairman w, j. Barry Of the water
and land sports committee, is working
hard to have everything in fine shape
for the sports of the Regatta, From
early in the morning until late at night
he is interviewing the various contest
ants in the city and lining up the pro-
gram accordingly.
His work covers such wide range
OF different features that il is only his
past experience in these matters which
enables him to get them lined up as
he is doing. and there is every pros.
pect that the sports to be pulled of at
the big celebration win be the best that
has ever been seen in Astoria.
He reports that there 10 considerable
friendly rivalry between the east and
west end members OF the Astoria Row
ing Club. Members OF this organiea-
ton are putting in much time getting
racing shells, rowing boats, sailboats,
yachts and launches in shape for the
contests
The rivalry existing will add much
stimulus to the sports among local men,
four-oared and other racing shell con-
tests especially being the bone OF con-
tention. 1t rs probable that number
of outside contestants will enter these
events and viii add TO the general in-
terest in these races. MFR. Barry Is en-.
ieavoring to secure match between
Gloss, the champion single OF Oregon
and Laing, the champion OF British
Columbia. The latter one out in
former contest and an attempt to get
the men together for another race will
be made for the Astoria Regatta.
There win be more water sports this
year than formerly even while the land
sports are as numerous as ever The
prizes are large enough to make it worth
while for sportsmen to come almost any
distance to enter the races. The gen.
.ral feeling among local men is that
more attention should be given to the
water contests because the celebration

The speaker was introduced
in an appropriate speech by G. K.
Banks, and after brief sketch
Of his life, he entered upon the
discussion OF measures and men,
d good portion of his talk being
devoted to his opponents. Fe
Said he would make an earnest
effort to have the law enforced if
elected, believing that nothing
else could do more to the up
buildll 6 of the state, and that
the courts should begin with the
big offenders and then come
down on the line. One of the
greatest evils in this respect was
The "bucket shops" which were
run IN open violation Of the law.
and he would be uncompromls-
lug in his efforts to suppress
them. He said the man who
started them was d convict fresh
ron the penitentiary Of New
York, and that during the last
two years they had taken more
money out Of the State than all
the taxes, state county and mu-

shop in the Yazoo delta had TAX

from the people, and more than
IA half million dollars was lost by
the citizens Of Greenville and
that county in six months. The
evil had resulted in sending more
men to the penitentiary, had
been the downfall of more mer.
chants, and sent more people 10
