PEARY NARRATIVE is
NOT COPYRIGHTED,

New York. Sept. l4.-Judge Hand
in the United States circuit court, set
tied Il novel legal controversy today
bearing on Commander Robert f.
Peary's discovery of the north pole in
favor of the New York Sun and the
New York World, defendants in a pro-
cess brought by the New York Times.
The Times had obtained a temporary
injunction restraining the Sun and
World from printing any of Peary's
cabled account of his discovery. which
he had agreed to furnish exclusively
to the Times. but the court held that
the Times copyright was not legally
hole proof and dissolved the restraint
ing order.
The Sun and World on Thursday OBJ
tanned by way of London, where il
appeared in the London Times by
agreement with the New York Times,
q verbatum account OF Peary's brief
resume of his discovery and printed it
here. Immediately the Times took
legal steps to stop this, but has failed
so far as Judge Hands decision goes.
A cop of Peary's contract, which
was submitted to the court, set forth
that he explorer received $4,000 from
the newspaper. to be considered as a
loan, which was to be repaid out OF
the proceeds of the Times syndicate
accounts of his discovery. Failing to
reach the pole, he was to refund the
full mount.

SUTTON AUTOPSY
UPSETS THEORIES

Washington. Sept. 16.-When the
body Of Lieutenant j. N. Sutton, jr.,
the young marine officer who met his
death two years ago at Annapolis, was
exhumed at Arlington cemetery yester-
day afternoon. an autopsy per-
formed by physicians representing the
navy department and young Sutton's
mother disclosed the fact that no bones
were broken, although a confusion was
found over the right eye.
It had been Mrs. SuttOn's contention
that her sons arm "a been broken in
the fight which preceded his death, and
that this being the case the hot which
ended his life could not have been self
inflicted.
DR.. George Tully Vaughan, of this
city, who represented Mrs. Sutton at
the autopsy, said that the bullet wound
which caused his death was three
inches above the right ear n was
clean cut. There was no indication
that the hair and scalp had been
burned by powder. Surgeon Spear,
who represented the navy department,
declined to make a statement. saying
that he intended to make q report
direct to the navy department.
Attorney Van Dyke, associate counsel
for Mrs. Sutton, said that he was con-
WINGED that the shot had been fired at
least five feet from h officers head
and that the wound showed conclusive
ly that it was a physical impossibility
for Sutton to have fired the shot.

RAPID CITY AFTER
ANOTHER RAILROAD

Rapid City, s.. d.. Sept. l6.-Local
business men are confident that another
railroad is planning to enter this city.
some time ago when 1t was learned that
the Minneapolis & st. Louis railroad
was making surveys through the north
western part of the state from its pres
ent western terminus Of LeBeau, S. D.,
the Rapid City business club took up
the matter with the road and inquired
just what inducements could be made
to have the road extend to Rapid City.
The present plans of the railroad in
clude an extension west in the vicinity
of Vale In Butte county and into the
coal fields in the same county. From
Vale to Rapid a line could be run down
without great additional expense and
this would give Rapid City a much
more direct coaling ource than at
present. In a letter received here by
President Emrick, of the Business
Mems club, First Vic President F. L.
Day. of the railroad company, writes
encouragingly and declares that it is
by no means improbable that the road
will be extended into Rapid City. The
business club has called a special meet
Ing of the directors to take immediate
