police that All On, an ex-eonvict with
a record for chicken swiping, had been
living since his last release from jail
in the county tool house at the park
in Nuuanu, in which neighborhood for
the past week or two there have been
many complaints of robbed hen roosts
Chief Kalakiela has taken the man into
custody. although so far there has been
nothing to connect him with the hen
robberies except the fact that he ap-
pears to be particularly well fed and
in good condition. Just now he is
booked as a suspect for investigation
but it is probable that a charge of
vagrancy will be made against him
this morning.

IN KING Con. SUIT
Grants Application for Survey of

Mine Workings.
WITHOUT ANY RESTRICTIONS
May Tear Out BuIkhcnds II Any Are
Found--Case Interest
ing One.

Armed with an order from Judge
Marshall of the federal court, survey
ors In the employ OF the Silver King
Consolidated Mining company will
move towards Park City in q few days
and present themselves at the main
works of the Silver King Coalition
company prepared to make an under

extended within the possessions Of the
Consolidated company. 1t win be re-
mcmbered that Manager Scion Spiro.

tered into between the attorneys OF
the two companies arrived at the Co
aiition mine with his engineers for the
purpose of making the surveys at thai
time, but other than being lowered
to the 200 and 900-foot stations, was
refused entrance to any portion of the
coalition workings by Superintendent
NJ j. Daily, who acted under instruc-
lions from the executive offices OF the
company here In Salt Lake. Mr.. Spiru
then took his case before Judge Mar
shall and yesterday afternoon the APP
p,ication OF the Consolidated company
vas ssranted without restrictions, and
includes authority to remove any and
all bulkheads, or other distractions
which are alleged to exist to prevent
entrance of the engineers of the OPP
posing company to the disputed ter
rltory. In making the order Judge
Marshall referred incidentally. to an
other occasion when the defendant
company had deceived the courts rep
rcsentatives by conoealing workings
with bukheads; meaning, no doubt,
the cases in which James McGregor
figured as plaintiff and which finally
ended in the Coalition company pur-
chasing all of the McGregor holdings
in the Park City camp.
Tho Silver King Consolidated has
sued its adversary on two counts: one
alleges the wrongful extraction of ors
OF the valuation of $500, 900 from ter
ritory owned wholly by the plaintiff
company; while the second complaint
alleges that ore of the valuation of
$l,000,000 has been taken by the de-
PENDANT from ground IN which the
warning concerns are Jointly interested
and for which the court is asked 4,

| hes admitted having mined ore from

| critics owned jointly
The trial of the case promises to be
| interesting.
