Telegraph Companies Badly Crippled

The continuation of the strike of the Associated Press, Western
Union and Postal telegraph operators has virtually cut off commun-
ication throughout the entire country. Each of the above compan-
les have a few men at work, but find themselves seriously handicap
ped and n able to handle but a small amount of the business
offered.
From latest advices it is stated that the Telegraphers' Union is
seriously considering the calling of a general strike. If this is done
25,O 900 operators will be affected, embracing the United States and
Canada. 1t is now estimated that not less than $4,000 operators
are out
While messages are taken and delivered in the few offices in the
larger cities that are able to do some business, still the market re-
ports and stock quotations have been nearly If not entirely cut out
A sensational report comes from Chicago to the effect that Secre-
tary Russell of the Telegraphers' Union is now comforting with at
torneys of the union, preparing, it is said, to ask the Federal Gov
eminent to seize the property of the Western Union and Postal,
providing the strike spreads, under the terms of the Federal stat
utes giving the Government power to take over the properties OF
telegraph companies as a matter of public expedience, when the
companies are not able to operate their wires.
The Order of Railroad Telegraphers has a contract with the
Southern Pacific Railway Company which provides that its men,
bers working railroad lines shall handle Western Union commercial
business when called on to do so. 1t is thought that if the letter of
this contract is carried out the railway t~elegraphers will also join
the strikers. The momentous question of the hour, therefore, is:
Will the Southern Pacific Company dare to make the test? Time
will tell

.tLYITE CHARGED WITH FRAUD
1t Is Alleged That Feeble Minded
Woman Was Induced to Sell
$4,000 Ranch for 500

According to the Ely, White fine
County, newspapers a complaint was
fled with the County Clerk there Aug
ust s by Fine Molleson against mary
Nolleson and H. A. Comins for proper
ty valued at $4,000.
The allegations in the complaint DOT
der on the sensat onal nature, ana accu.
~satiops are made that no doubt will
make the trial Of considerable interest
to the public.
Mr.. Molleson alleges that fraud ana
deception were used by II. A. Comins
in inducing his old mother. Mary
Molleson, now so years of age, and en-
! feebled in mind and body, to execute a
deed to him for the Molleson ranch In
Steptoe Valley, White Pine County.
and asking that the purported sale be
declared fraudulent and void that the
deed be Cancelled. and that the plaintin
be given authority to remain In quiet
possession of the ranch.
In addition, he seeks to have the
agreement signed by his mother be-
queathing him possession OF the rancn
after her death made ~irrevocable, ana
that Comins be restrained from claiming
any title or dominion over the estate.
According to the complaint Mrs. Mol
Lesson is weak in body and mind, and
mentally incapable of ira sacting busi-
ness intelligently. Her mind. 1t is
claimed, is so enfeebled that she Is
wholly incapable of realizing the solem'
nifty and legal or equitable obligations
oil a contract.
Mr.. Molleson claims that under the
terms of the last will of Mrs. Mary
Molleson, the ranch was to be bequeath'
ed to himself aud family.
It was on June | that II. A. Comins
became identified with the case, and on
that date, it is as serted in the complaint
that he c~onspired and confederated
with others, and took advantage OF the
age and mental inirmity of Mrs. Molle
son. by persuading her to deliver ovei
to him a warranty deed to the land
water rights. live stock and persona
property included in the Molleson hold
ings. the consideration being 500.
The complaint further claims tina
Comins knew of the existence OF thu
will of Mrs Molleson, and took from tn
ZONE of the plaintiff the will in ques
ton. The plaintiff pleads ignorance O
the present whereabouts of the docu
ment. not knowing whether it has beei
destroyed or whether it is in the posses
sion of II. A. Comins
After the execution and delivery o
the deed, it is claimed that Comins ad
vised aud encouraged Mary Molleson t.
leave the State of Nevada and go t.
Pennsylvania, which she did a few
hours after attaching her name to tn
document.
The case will come up for trial at th'
next session of the District Court at Ely
