Vinson had an agreement with the
railroad to house the strike-breakers
at so much per day. The company
took their board out of the wages of
the men and paid Vinson direct for
their keep. But it seems that the
hotel-keeper. who conducted his place
known as the Ionia cafe at Burnham.
could not meet his obligations.
It was then that Vinson went. it

houses in Denver and purchased bills
of goods. He gave them orders on

road company honored these, as Vim
son always had a running account.
But the bills insisted on coming in,
and Just about that time Vinson de-
cided to quit.
Attorney Ellsworth for the rail-
road came into court this morning
and stated that the company held a
trifle over 5000 belonging to Vinson.
and that they We're willing to pay
the claims, but could not determine
who should get the money. as the
total bills amount to nearly $4,000.
The twelve lawyers sought to
show the court that each and every
one of their clients was entitled to
the money but Judge Dixon put a
stop to this proceeding by declaring
that the concerns must show their
bills to be legitimate ones before he
could pass on who the 5000 belonged
to.
