COPPER QUEEN
WILL FURNISH HOSE
Awarded Contract for 5000
Feet at GO CentS-HigginS
Gives Land.

A special session of the city council
was held last night The object Of
the meeting was for the opening of
bids for furnishing the city with 5000
feet of two and one-half inch fire hose.
The meeting was called to order by
Mayor Caven, all the members of the
council being present with the ex-
ception of Alderman Allen.
Quite a number of bids were sub
mitted, but that of the Copper Queen
Company was the lowest. They agreed
to furnish the desired amount of hose
at 80 cents per foot, which figure was
considerably less than their nearest
competitor. The hose will be delivered
by the company at an early date.
Another matter which came before
the council was of great Importance
TO the welfare Of the city. This was
an agreement with Thomas Higgins
for forty feet OF his property the en-
tire length, OF the Tombstone canyon
roadway as far as the old Jack lum-
Der yard. This property will make
the thoroughfare Of the desired width
which the council has been contem-
plating for some time The land lies
on the left side of the road going up
the canyon. and somewhat higher than
the old road.

ARMY SCANDAL
Is FINALLY
DISPOSED OF
AS Sequel to Greene Gaynor
Episode Government Will
Have to Pay Costs of Suit
Out of Funds Recovered.

CHICAGO, March 21.-The final de
cree in the case of oberlin NJ. Carter
former captain in the United States
engineer corps, was entered today by
Judge Kohlsaat in the United States
circuit court, practically all Of the
findings being in favor of the former
army officer.
While Carter does not get a large
share of the funds which have been
the subject of litigation between him
and the government, the cost OF this
and all other suits against him are
taxed against the government. BY
the decree, Carter is awarded $45, 900,
which was held by the court to be
without faint" The total amount
attached by the federal authorities
some years ago was about $500, 900.
The greater part of this Carter
claimed to have received from his
father-in-law, the late Robert F. West
colt, of New York.
In the final decree, Judge Konlsaat
refused to charge Carter with the
money spent defending himself be-
fore the army courtmartial and other
tribunals. All expenses of suits
against Carter in Chicago, New York,
Savannah, and other places except a
small per cent to be disposed OF
later are to be paid by the govern
ment. This amount is estimated to
be about $4,000.
The court holds further that oI
the moxey it is claimed Carter reeeiv
ed from Greene and Gaynor, more
than S2S5.000 came from Westeott,
but inasmuch as the court declares
these latter funds to be tainted
they are to be retained by the gov
eminent and the court costs and attor.
ney fees as to be paid from them.
The court also held that c. /. Stan
ton, co-defendant with Carter, is In
debted to the government to the ex-
tent of $11,455 A part>o of the funds
for the recovery of which the suit
was started.

FACULTY SEEMS
To Be BEATEN
IN CONTROVERSY
Looks Very Much as If STAN
ford Students Would Win
Their Point for ReconSidera-
ton of Parade Cases.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, March
21.-Considerable oil was spread on
the agitated waters of student SEN
timent this morning when Professor
Clark explained unofficially that the
purport of yesterdays announcement
concerning the suspended men was
misunderstood. From his remarks
it seems probable that there will be
faculty concessions after all.
The signers of the parade petition
this afternoon signed the statement
passed by the student body Thursday
night which apologies for any
breach of discipline occurring during
the parade This was done to satisfy
the committee that the paraders really
joined in the public apology. The
action was taken only after a stormy
debate, but everyone signed. 1t will
be presented Monday morning.
The committee at noon discontinued
tne hearing of the remainder of the
247 cases until Monday.
Many of the alumni have been on
the campus today interviewing prom
inent students to get the facts of the
situation, and no small number have
attempted to place the matter before
HTSSlucul III OIL C-1OCoFSA "
have him interfere to prevent a. still
more seriously complicated situation.
While the students feel that the c47
will not be permanently dismissed
there is no additional light on the
case of the original twelve which is
really the question at issue. Clark
held a conversation with a number
of members of one of the college or
ganizations, in which he declared that
the purpose of the committee was to
complete the hearing of the 247 men
who engaged in the parade and then
consider their cases together with
those of the twelve men already sus-
pended, which would practically
amount to the reconsideration for
which the students asked. But the
feeling prevails that the committee is
seeking to carry the matter along
until the sentiment against their ac-
ton dies out.
