GORDON
Proceedings Likely to Be-
gin in Spokane County
to That End.

If the superior judges of Spo-
kane county should decide not to
call for grand jury investigation
Of the Root-Gordon matter, recon-
mended by the state bar investi-
eating committee, there is strong
probability of proceedings to dis
bar M. ]. Gordon, former counsel
for the Great Northern, who is
still member of the Spokane bar.
The evidence brought to light by
the state bar commission in the
Sparrow case, in which Judge Cor
don received $4,000 with which to
pay the agreed settlement in that
case, and afterward failed to turn
over the money to the claimant,
causing the company to again pay
the claim, is considered sufficient
evidence on which to proceed to
disbar Judge Gordon.
One of the judges of the supe-
rior court is understood to have
suggested proceedings of this kind
against Gordon when the matter
first became public. This sugges-
ton was made to member of the
committee that conducted the dis
barment proceedings against
James Hopkins, but was permitted
to rest at the time because of the
fact that the State Bar association
had just taken action in the case.
The superior judges will con-
slider he recommendation for a
grand jury investigation at their
Joint meeting Saturday. 1t is be-
lieved that some action as outlined
a few days ago in The Press will
be taken, and the prosecuting at
torney authorized to look into the
case before a grand jury is called
together.
Lawyers who have followed the
Root Gordon case say that the
proper place to conduct a grand
jury investigation is in either
Thurston or Pierce counties,
where, If any corrupt relations be-
tween Gordon and Root occurred,
the acts took place. 1t is held that
Spokane county grand jury can
not compel the attendance Of wit
nesses from those counties.

ANOTHER CLAIM
AGENT RUSE

In the case of Charles Suites
man. an employee of the transfer
companies, who sued the Great
Northern railway for $4,000 for in
juries received while unloading a
freight car year ago, the com
pany has filed as answer in the
case receipt from the plaintiff,
showing full settlement in the case
for the sum of SIS.
Statesman has replied to this
showing by saying that one of the
agents of the company came to
him while he was in the hospital.
two days after the accident, and
secured the purported settlement
by false representations. At the
time the agent called. Statesman
says he was weak from suffering
and did not really understand the
nature of the settlement he was
making. He said the railroad rep
resentative was smooth talker
and skilled in the art of minimiz-
ing the liability of the company
and said that the SIS was in the
nature Of donation. The agent
told Statesman that he was not
hurt much but he has since learn
ed that he was much more serious
ly injured at the time than he was
aware OF.

WALKED STREET
WITH PISTOL
NORTH YAKIMA WOMAN WAS
LOADED FOR ULTED LOVER,
WHO HAD THREATENED TO
KILL HER.

Driven to desperation by threats,
either real or imaginary, made
against her life by a Tilted lover,
a woman from North Yakima who
refused to divulge her name, was
caught by Officer Waterbury this
afternoon as she walked up and
down Stevens street, toying with
the stock of a loaded pistol that
she carried in her coat pocket.
At police headquarters the wo-
man laughed heartily at her plight
of being in custody OF a uniformed
officer She told Chief of Police
Rice that a man who had threat
ened to kill her was now in the
city, had followed her here from
North Yakima and that she feared
he would carry out his threats.
The revolver, which was of 80 cali
Der, was taken from her and kept
by the police, and after cautioning
her never to be caught in posses
sion of weapon again, and advis-
ing her to return to her home, the
police allowed her freedom.
When the woman first began
telling of her troubles, it was be-
lieved she was demented. She was
warmly clad in a long coat, but on
her head she wore nothing but a
flimsy silk handkerchief.

SHE PICKED A LEMON

Ten months was the duration OF
the marital relations Of Anna d.
Kelly and George A. Kelly, who
were divorced today by Judge Sui
livan, on the application of the
woman. They were married in Sc
attic last March. Mrs. Kelly, on
the stand, said that she thought
she had drawn prize in the mat
rimonial lottery. but soon learned
she had made mistake. She told
Of the excessive use of intoxicat-
ing liquors by her husband until
he finally ceased to work at all.
and she found herself out making
the living and paying the rent. Her
maiden name of Anna East was
restored to her.

SICK man BEATEN OFF
SPOKANE STREET CAR

That there are at least a few
brass buttoned ''bullys" working
on Spokane street cars that should
be kicked off is quite evident to the
street car riding public.
Yesterday afternoon, because a
poorly clad working man, carrying
a lunch basket, took sick on Spo-
kane Traction car No. 40 he was
forcibly elected by conductor un-
der cap number 141 and his bur-
ly motorman, who waded In with
out ceremony and hammered the
unfortunate fellow over the
knuckles with his controller. The
car was laden with passengers.
Some were shocked and others in
furiated by the cowardly attack
made upon the sick man by the
two huskies in uniform. Accord
ing to a report that reached the
police from one of the passengers
who sat opposite the victim his
sickness was not due to drink. AS
soon as he could recover suf-
ficient strength, he staggered to
the rear platform of the car. The
conductor stopped the car and or
dered him off. Nothing but
snow surrounded him and he was
still blocks from home. conse-
quently he stuck to the car, by
holding to the rear rods. till the
motorman broke his grip with a
heavy brass controller.
Little more than week ago the
wife of an officer of the police de-
partment was riding a Traction
car about the city. When the con
