templating Three e
Suits.

Jefferson City, Oct. 15.-Attorney
General Hadley's assistants We're busy
today procuring evidence to be used
against the Western Union and Pcs.
tai Telegraph companies.
Three suits are contemplated.
One will charge that the Western
Union and Postal Telegraph compan-
les are under the same ownership, and
that they are an unlawful combination
in rstraint of trade.
Another charge will be that they are
not licensed to do business in Mis-
souri,, and the third that since the be-
ginning of the strike of telegraphers
the companies have received money
for the transmission of kilograms,
which they have sent by mail.
Secretary of State Swanger recently
reported the telegraph companies to
the attorney general, with the state
.ment that they were not licensed in
Missouri, and asked if under the law
he could proceed against them.
Assistant Attorneys General Ken
nish and Lake have been assigned by
the attorney general to assist him in
all trust prosecutions, and in the fu-
ture they will devote their entire time
to that work
The officers of the state legal de-
partment are expecting the immunity
statute passed by the last Legislature
to be of material assistance in OBJ
tanning evidence.
The proceedings instituted by the
attorney general will be civil alone,
and he will not directly attempt to
send any trust magnates to jail.
There win undoubtedly be abund-
ant evidence to justify criminal pro-
ceedings In several cases. These Grim
inal proceedings will be instituted by
a prosecuting attorney in some coun-
ty or city.
who will bring them will be de-
cided upon after the equity cases are
under way The attorney general will
assist in the criminal eases.
Robert G. Mitchell of Macon and
George F. Longan OF Sedalia, the
commissioners appointed to take evi-
dence in the proceedings started a
week ago by Attorney General Hadley
against the lumber and insurance
trusts. will be in jefferson City this
week to confer with the attorney gem
eral. The state has employed Attor-
ney F. G.. Ferris of Moberly to assist
in the handling of these cases.

TION CUTS RICH
LEDGE.

1t was learned yesterday that a
most important strike had been made
on the Loftus-Davis and Sweeney
lease on the Combination Fraction.
The discovery was made Tuesday,
when a twelve-foot ledge was en-
c%ountered, which shows values rang
ing between $4OO and $500. The
ledge was cut at a depth of 455
feet and promises to extend to a
great depth. At the Office of Lotus
& Davis it was stated that the report
was correct.
AS long ago as last Saturday ii
was stated that rich ore had been
struck on the eddie lease on this
same property, although at the time
the report could not be confirmed.
1t has since been learned upon good
Goldf1eld authority that the lease is
now working very high-grade ore.
