LAMBS LEASE
AT MANHATTAN
HIGF1-GRADED
Thieves Encountered as They are Ascending
Shaft and Pitched Battle Follows

impossible to ascertain if any I
the robbers were injured, but dur
ing the melee Martinson was struck
on the head by a bullet which for
tunately glanced, inficting only 4
slight wound.
When both sides had emptied
their reyolvers the four high grad
ers took to their heels and disap-
peared in the direction Of the town.
A general alarm was sounded and
a large number of citizens joined
in the hunt, but none of the des-
peradoes were apprehended, al
though it is thought that several ar
rests will be made within the next
day or two as the officers have sew
eral good clues on which they are
working.
The ore dropped by the fleeing
men was found at the mouth of the
shaft, and on investigation it proved
to be of the richest grade which
had been bulkheaded, the most Of
it going over SIS a pound.
The Lamb lease, which is also
known as the Plamenaz lease, is re-
garded as one of the best in the
Manhattan district. Mr.. Lamb in
tends to commence active operations
within a very few days, as he is
only awaiting the arrival of ma
chinery he has ordered, and when
this is installed and the mill over
hauled he will start work.

That Manhattan still harbors
high graders was demonstrated on
Wednesday night when a bunch Of
ore thieves had a brush with sew
eral officers. The fight occurred at
the lease OF Walter Lamb and i'll
the darkness OF the night number
of shots were exchanged between
the representatives of the law and
the robbers.
1t was only q few days ago that
Walter Lamb learned that rich ore
assaying from $4 to IS a pound,
had been encountered in his prop
erty and was being high graded by
what was thought to be an organ
lied gang He at once had the ore
bulkheaded and advised the author
tiles of his suspicious.
Deputy Sheriffs Tom Martinson
and Santos were placed on the
job and when watching Wednesday
night were somewhat surprised to
see four men ascending from the
shaft, each carrying quantity of
the high grade ore on his back.
Martinson ordered the men to
throw up their hands, but instead
of obeying the command, the high
graders dropped the ore and opened
fire on the officers. The shooting
was returned by Martinson and his
partner, and in the duel that fol-
lowed over 80 shots were ex-
changed. In the darkness it was

sought out the man. and, after telling
him to the ground with the butt end
OF a whip, fired three shots into his
body, killing him instantly. :
Rodgers made no effort to escape.
In commenting upon this Justice Min

by Executor.

e-Chanceller Stevens today re-
served decision in, an action brought
Walter G. Runyon, rs executor of
the will of the late Asa r. Bush,
against William H. Brokaw and Mary
Catherine Willis. The action was
brought primarily by Runyon with. a
view of getting the true and proper
construction to be given the language
of a certain paragraph of the will.
The testator, who died on March IL,
1909. was unmarried. and his only heirs
at law were William Henry Brokaw.
Mary Catherine Willis and Phebe Jane
Wykoff. The latter, however. died be-
fore the testator. His estate a
valued at 50, 400.
The third clause of the will in les
tion b~eoueathes to Walter G.. Runyon
or his heirs $500. BY the fourth clause
Leonard Dunn receives 500. Mrs. Cor
nelia Jennings received $500 under the
fifth clause of the will, while each of
her daughters, Mrs. William H. Oker-
son, Mrs. Emma E. Baltinger and Mrs.
Harry Pullen, were to receive $500 each.
There is also a. provision that in case
the estate was not enough to pay out
these requests the same was 10 be
divided pro ratio.
The sixth clause, which the court is
asked to interpret, authorizes the
executor to sell the real and personal
property and to pay the proceeds to
william H. Brokaw and Mary Cath
crime Willis, share and share, alike.
They say thai the legatees mentioned
in the other paragraphs r not en-

Within a short period of time, it was

1t. is, understood and verified that
no definite sites have been selected. but
it is generally admitted that the report
that a terminal will be located on
