ARGUMENTS ON
DEMURRER HEARD IN
DISTRICT COURT
SUIT AGAINST FORMER TREAS
URER'S BONDSMEN HAS
COMMENCED

Arguments on a demurrer and
motion to make the complaint
more definite, consumed the entire
session yesterday of the district
court in the case of Nye county
versus former County Treasurer r.
r. Gilbert and his bondsmen. The
address yesterday was made by At
torney P. M. Bowler, who also
spoke for the other attorneys rep
resenting the different defendants.
From the construction of the law,
as exemplified by Mr.. Bowler, many
decisions in the higher courts have
been rendered, showing the suit to
be based on mere fragments of law
and that number of adverse decis-
ions have been handed down by en-
inent jurists.
Mr.. Bowler's address was an in
teresting one and many people were
drawn to the courtroom during the
day to listen to the eloquent dis
course. Key Pittman, who is en-
gagged as special counsel by the
county, will follow, and possibly will
open his remarks today.
The suit is the result of the fail
ure Of the Nye and Ormsby Coun-
ty bank with some 100000 of the
county's funds on deposit. Gilbert
and his bondsmen are held respon-
sible, although it has been clearly
shown that the money was depos-
tied in the bank by the order of
the county commissioners, and had
Gilbert SO desired, he would have
been powerless to withdraw the
money without an order from the
county commissioners.
Attorneys George B. Thatcher,
w P. Pittman and Judge J. F. Dem
mis- also appear on behalf of the diff
ferent co-defendants.

CASE
OF CAPT BELMONT
IS DISMISSED
GRAND JURY WAS IN DOUBT
ABOUT SECURING A CON-
VICTION

AS was stated in yesterday morn.
ing's Bonanza, the case against Can
Belmont, charged with assault with
intent to kill, was dismissed yester-
day in the district court on motion
OF the district attorney. Belmont
was jointly indicted with Scott, who
was acquitted Tuesday night, and
in the face of the acquittal, it
seemed almost certain that a con-
viction could not be secured. At
the time the grand jury returned
the indictments. 1t was requested
that II the first case tried did not
result in a conviction, that the sec
ond case be dismissed.

AUCTION SALE OF
CARLSON Mill
LARGE CREDITORS DIsPLEAsED
WITH SMALL SUM BROUGHT
BY SALE

yesterday afternoon at O'Clock
the mill Of the Carlson Mining and
Milling company, at Golden Arrow.
was sold at auction in front OF the
courthouse, to ed CLIFFORD, Jr.. WHO
acted on behalf Of the other ow y
ers of the Glendale property. THO
sum obtained on the mill ana tooH
amounted to $252O.
About a week ago r. y. Walker.
A. II, Elftman and e. A. Wilson
were appointed by J. Pouiade. the
referee in bankruptcy as a board
of appraisers. The three gentlemen
visited the mill and appraised the
value Of the property at abort
$4,000. Originally the mill was
worth a great deal more, but pass
ing prospectors have helped them
selves to different portions Of the
machinery and the plant has been
slightly wrecked
Among those present at the sale
yesterday was G f, Pyler Of san
Jose, who is president of the Carl
son company and one of the heav-
lest creditors of the concern. Mr.
Pyler also represents three othcr
large creditors. He stated last
evening that he would endeavor to
have the sale declared invalid. rs
certain requirements were not com
piled with. He has already been
advised by the other creditors to en-
deaVor to secure a larger sum for
the sale of the plant.
II had received an offer of $1,000
for the mill, said Mr.. Pyler, "but
found it impossible to have the auc-
tloneer postpone the sale AS a
heavy creditor of the company,
eel it my duty to secure the larg-
st sum possible. The referee in
bankruptcy ordered the sale held at I
80 O'Clock and contrary to this ,
rider the auction was advertised to
re held at 2 o'clock. All the prop
rty was ordered sold, and instead
'nly the mill and tools were dis
losed of, The claims against the
ompany will run up In the thous-
nds and the small sum obtained
rom the sale will in no way help
. liquidate the Indebtedness.
Mr.. Pyler leaves this morning for
arson to file demurrer to the
lie, but expects to return shortly.

the event the land was not all dis posed of by that time the company's water rights in the San Francisco would be restored, in respect of the unsOld portion of the land. The board declined to accept such a provision.
 Another matter considered was talk en uD on the reading of a letter from Engineer Hill to President Fowler and the members of the board. Mir. Hill not being in the city. The letter call ed attention to the report thar a num- Der of citizens proposed asking the city council of Phoenix for a charter for the operation of a new gas and cleo trfc company. Mir Hill called attention tO some of the arguments and stories that have been given cirulation re- specting the field and source of SUD- ply. He said that had the Pacific com pany's contract been in force last year the revenue to the government, which means the association, would have been S40,0O0 and this year it would have been $45.000, with a probable in- crease annually in similar ratio. It had been intimated that the projected company expected to enter the field and secure at least a quarter of the busi- ness of the present company, which would. approximately estimated, if this plan is carried out, eliminate about $l00,00O revenue from the assO- ciation during the life of the Pacific's contract
 The board referred the matter to its counsel, Judge Kibbey. requesting him to be at the council meeting last night and see that the council did nothing had no desire to be a hindrance to a unadvisedly. The board it was stated,

CONSIDERATION OF PLANS FOR
 PROPOSED WATER TEMPLE.
Discussion of Bartlett Heard Proposi- ton and Proposed Electric
 Light Company.

The board of governors of the Water Users association held it's regular monthly meeting yesterday having un- der consideration two or three quite important matters. For one thing, Architect Fitzhugh submitted very attractive picture of a reinforced con- crete building. explained by rough plans. designed as a preliminary basis of study on the part of the board. in arriving at what 1t wants for the pro- posed water temple to be erected on the lot recently purchased of the Y
 NJ C. A. The building in a general way resembles the capitol building in architecture and shape, only 1t is to face to the north and west on Van Buren street and Second avenue. It is rectangular with a dome over the cen ter. The plans are but little different from those outlined as prospective at the time the lot was bought The board was quite favorably impressed with them and instructed Mir FitZhugh to proceed with the detail plans that it could examine more carefully. The building on paper is as pretty struc
 ture as one can find in the town, per haps the finest, size considered. The building is designed to cost $35.000 and to furnish ample office room for the Water Users association and the re- clamation service. Incidentally, MT. FitZhugh, in order tO give a better perspective, finished up the Y. NJ c. A. and federal buildings Con paper), in the other corners of the lot and built up a few trees about ten years old.
 The board gave further considera- ton to the proposition of the Bartlett Heard company to turn the San Fran cisco canal over to the government and sign up its lands to the Water Users association, on consideration that the company would have an extension of five years time to dispose of the lands. Definite action was deferred but the proposition was practically handed back with the refusal to accept one of the provisions of it which was that in

CALHOUN TRIAL END
 SEEMS LESS NEAR
PROSECUTION GOING OVER THE
 GROUND AGAIN.
There Will Probably Be Two More
 Weeks of 1t.

San Francisco, June 7.-The twenty second week of the trial of Patrick Calhoun opened today with a session devoted altogether to evidence of corroborative or contradictory testi- mony of that previously introduced.
 Samuel F. Scott, a witness for the prosecution, who alleged that he had been induced by an emplOye of the United Railroads to manufacture evil dence favorable to the defendant, withstood a severe cross examination during the day. as did Ray c. Shind- Ter, one of the men who participated in the raids upon the offices of the United Railroads when stolen docu- ments were alleged to have been found in the desks of officers of the corporation.
 Predictions relating to the length of the long trial were shattered to- day when the prosecution resumed the presentation of matters already introduced. It is the general belief that the case will not be submitted to the jury within a fortnight.

Atlantic City, N. j.. June 1.-Emi- nent physicians. speaking today be- fore the American Academy of Medi- cine at it's closing meeting, advocated contract practice" by physicians as g solution of the problem of providing proper attention for wage earners at small cost.
 The plan presente favors small monthly payments by clients of the contract physician, who is expected to attend them in case of illness without extra charge.
 Dr. l.. Benedict of Buffalo claimed that under the present system the poor, unable to pay doctors bills, often de- layed calling physician until the dis ease was beyond an easy cure. He said the contract physician plan would insure the doctors against the loss of unpai bills and guarantee the young physician a living income.
