LANGAN SAYS NO JURY

This morning in the district court
Judge Frank P. Langan rendered a
decision in the action brought by
the defendants in the case of Frank
l.. Wildes against the directors of
the state Bank & Trust Co. to have
the case tried by a jury instead of
a court of equity. The arguments
in the case were made last week in
the district court in this city.
The attorneys for the defendants
are endeavoring to prove that the
action is one of law and not one OF
equity.
In the decision rendered this
morning Judge Langan takes the
same view of the matter as he did
in his previous decision in this case
and denied the request of the de-
PENDANTS hat the case be heard
before a jury declaring that the
action was one in equity.
Following the decision it was
announced that the attorneys for
the defendant directors would ask
the supreme court for a writ of
mandate compelling Judge Langan
to give said defendants a jury
trial on the grounds that the action
is one at law and not one in
equity and that therefore the de-
PENDANTS are entitled to a jury as
a matter of right.
If this action is taken, as it
probably will be, it will be at least
a couple of months before case
comes to trial. Carson Appeal

SEVERITY OF NEW YORK COURT

Young Edmund a. Guggenheim,
son of Senator Simon Guggcnheim,
was'sent to Jail. He served out his
sentence and is now square with the
law. Society should not look
askancc at him nor refuse him an
opportunity to a r an honest living.
His punishment is over and he
should not be made to suffer for the
rest of life. Guggcnheim, it APP
pears, is not a first offender; but
this should not be held against him
nov that the law has cxacted its
penalty. Three times was Gug-
genheim in the tolls. The first. two
offenses did not bring him behind
the prison bars. But it was three
times and out; or, rather three
times and in, for the third time
landed the young man in the TOmbs
to serve out a sentence of thirty
five minutes in Jail imposed by a
severe and cruel New York Judge.
Guggcnhcim was not measured,
"muggcd," or treated to a free
prison hair cut. He was not COM
PEELED to don striped raiment. He
was not presented with a repast of
bread and water. He was not even
placed in a cell. A kind hearted
warden, evidently disappearing
of the harshness of the judge,
allowed the young offender to spend
the time of his incarceration in the
lawyers room Of the Tombs. For
thirty-fve long and drcary minutes
the unfortunate youth pinned for
freedom. One cannot sufficiently
praise that warden who did so much
to alleviate the rigor Of the tedious
confinement. Cleveland Plair

officials of the mining department
of the United States Mining and
Smelling company, have been
making a thorough inspection of
the Buckhorn Mining company's
properties at Buckhorn FOR the past
week, it is not learned whether It
was being done with a view of
ascertaining the probable tonnage
from those mines. or with the
object Of 2Irc14Sils "a. properties.
There all kinds of rumors afoat-
one to the effect that George Wing

people an option on the property

that parties have recently been

Whether the recent inspection
made at Buckhorn has to do with
the tonnage or the purchase of
the property, either proposition
augurs well for the early recon- !
struction of the railroad.
While the uncertainty of the time
when the road will be rebuilt is
causing great anxiety among the
people here and hurting all kinds of
business, hardly any one doubts
that it will be rebuilt. The known
tonnage from this district and the
immense bodies of ore already
developed and blocked out at Buck
horn insure beyond question the
necessary tonnage for the invest
ment of the required capital for
the rebuilding of the E. & P. rail-

In the meantime Samuel, brother of
John Of Dedham, had settled at Pen

his descenants bear to this day. So by
