MERRYWEATHER
IS NOT BAFFLEO
Goes Over To Robertsdale
and Triumphs Over
Brother Constables.

Constable Charles Merryweather is
there. Yesterday after Mrs Frank Hoff-
man Of Robertsdale had routed Con-
stable Rem Allen and Jim Louden by
pointing a gun at them, Constable
Merryweather went over to her place
and succeeded in placing her under
arrest on the charge of pointing a
deadly weapon at the other constabIes
who were attempting to serve a writ
of execution.
The case will come up in Judge f.
Prest's court next Monday when the
bellicose north side lady will have to
answer to the charge of having threat
ened the two arms of the law who were
bent on the peaceful mission of serving
a legal paper.

SCANDAL IS
UNEARTHED
West Hammond's Books Gone Over
By Experts Who Make Serious
Charges Against Officials

tigation~ of such~of the village records
as have been submitted to US. for the
four years ended April 80, 1910, and
have to report that these records are
incomplete and poorly kept,
where kept at all, that it is not possi-
BILE TO find out what funds have been
received by the various officers how
such funds have been disposed of or
what amounts are now due the village
from such officer or others.
THE lack of records. books, vouch-
ers, etc, which are either mislaid, de-
stroyed or still in the possession of the
officers of the village and withheld by
them is serious as to prevent any
verifcation of their accounts
The fact that no daily record of cash
collections has apparently been kept
by any of the officers handling money
makes it Impossible to prove any short
age in the cash funds of the village
arising either through intent or clerical
error
I'VE consider that certain officers
have been guilty of gross negligence
by omiting to keep proper books and
accounts as required by the state law
and the village ordinances. and by fall
ing to preserve the village records.
No ACCOUNTING MADE.
AT the present date as well as dur
ing the preceding four years there is
an entire absence of proper accounting
methods in all of the offices.

retain cillage books and papers on va

Working On Interior.

The work on the Lake superior court
building, which is being remodeled, has
gone forward to an extent where the
interior of the building begins to take
form.
The rooms are now laid out as they
will be when completed. All that re-
mains TO be done is to lay the floors and
put on the wood finish. The stafrways
will also have TO be constructed.

CASE STILL ON TRIAL

The case of the Western Rawhide
& Betting company VS.. the Simplex
Railway Appliance company is still on
in the Porter circuit court. 1t is ex-
pected that the case will last for an
another week or two. The suit arose
over a fire which occurred several years
ago and destroyed the Simplex plant
and also the plant of the Western
Rawhide company, which occupied part
of the buildings The Western Raw
hide company has since moved TO Mil
waukee where it now has a plant.

TRAFFIC
WILL Be
CRIPPLED
Hammond In Bad Way For
Transportation Because of
Holman Street Bridge and
Moving of Schultz Resi-
dence on State Street.

Within a few hours it is expected
that the traffic on the Hammond, Whit
ing & East Chicago line will be so
badly interfered with that it will lprac-
tically be crippled
The Holman street bridge construc-
tion has tied up Holman street so that
the South Chicago cars have been COM
PEELED TO go by way of state street,
Calumet avenue and Hoffman street.
and now the moving of the residence
of Peter Schutz has tied up traffic on
State street.
Fred Cotton, who is in charge of the
moving expects to have the Schultz
house out on state street late this aft
ernoon, and that will completely tie up
traffic on both the Hammond-East Chi
cago and the HammondSouth Chica-
go lines.
Cotton estimates that it Will take at
least a day and half to get the
house off from state street and during
all that time it will be necessary to
have the passengers transferred from
one car to another in order to get
around the building.
NEW STREET NEEDED.
The failure of the city to provide a
temporary bridge over the Calumet riv-
the board of pualic works to grant
Schultz the permit to move his building
sooner are ascribed as the causes
which have led to the complete tie
up of the street car traffic.
The incident has pointed out the
necessity for having another street
opened between the business district
and the north side. For some time
Otto Knoerzer has been advocating the
opening OF soh1 street through to the
north side.
If this had been done at the time 1t
was first advocated there would have
been provision made for the wagon
and pedestrian traffic while the Hob
man street bridge is being built. How
ever, the delay of the city administra-
tion to take action on these matters
has caused the trouble. According tC
those who are disposed to criticise, IL
has required just such situation as is
now presented to point out the neces-
sity for additional north and soutf
streets.

KAHLMAN
TURNS Up
ONCE MORE
Dan Kahlman, Politician and
Saloonkeeper In Standard
Steel Car District Denies
That He Had Disappeared
From His Home.

Daniel Kalman the saloonkeeper on
Columbia avenue near Morton avenue
who has been classed among the miss
ing in Hammond since last Saturday
appeared on the scene today much sur
prised to learn of the confusion and
wild rumors and reports that his alb
sence had caused.
A telephone message which accord :
Ing to Kalman was never delivered was
at the bottom of all the stories that
gave rise to his alleged French leave
taking. Last Saturday morHng he left
for Roseland. III. to visit his brother
and SO informe dhis wife. After renew
ing acquaintances with his brother they
decided that they should visit their
brothers in Pittsburg, and the action
was suited to the word Kalman says
he telephoned his wife from South Chi
cago TO this effect, but she according
to his statement never received the
message.
Mother Grundy Is Busy.
In the meantime old Mother Grundy
had not been idle. Reports became cur
rent, about Kalman deserting his fami-
~ because of business and marital
difficulties. ALI of which are contradict
ed with Kalman's appearance and
plausible explanation.
My wife and l have been married
for nearly thirteen years and we have
six children. Why. 1t would never
enter my head to leave them, and furth-
ermore my property interests here
would make such move a foolish one, :
said Kalman to THE TIMES today.
Daniel Kalman was the republican
candidate for councilman of the sixth
ward last fall but was defeated by
John Papp-

An Important
Mining Decision

The decision rendered last week in
Goldfield by Judge Theron Stevens
in the case of the Round Mountain
Mining Co. VS.. the Round Mountain
Sphinx Mining Co, in favor OF the
defendant, Is one OF the most impor-
tant cver handed down from a dis
trict court i'll the annals OF mining
litigation, involving as it does law
which there has never been a prece-
dent established by ruling.
: The following points OF law decided
in this case are as follows:
Tirst-That a valid location of a
mining claim can only be based upon
la discovery OF mineral within the
boundaries of the claim sought to be
located, and upon the unappropriated
mineral lands OF the United States,
Second-Whenever, after a discOv-
cry, a mining location has been made
and the ground included within the
boundaries OF such claim has been
Segregated from the unappropriated
mineral lands OF the United States,
no valid location can be made OF any
claim based upon a discovery made
within the boundaries OF a claim thus
segregated.
Third-A failure to advertise an
application made for a patent on Il
senior location by 4 junior location
does not stop such junior locator
from questioning the validity OF the
location Of the claim under which the
senior locator seeks to enforce extra
lateral rights As against such junior
locator.
Fourth-Thc invalidity OF such pa
tent may be pleaded as a defense i'll
any action brought for the possession
of land and may be tried upon the
same principle as an original bill
in equity.
Fifth-Whcrc the original location
certificate OF 4 claim declares that the
location was made entirely within the
boundaries of other claims the burden
OF proof is upon the locator to show
that the CAIN upon which such loca-
tons were made were invalid.
Sixth-That where Il cross-vein de
parts form the side lines OF a location
such side lines become the end lines
for the purpose OF determining the
extra-latcral rights OF the locator and
beyond such side end lines as they
extend down vertically, the locator
cannot follow the vein. and could not
enter upon or into premises which are
shown to be outside of the vertical
planes drawn downward through
those lines.

Fighting Ne
Vada Divorce

DIVORCE
RENO, June l4-Thc first Shot was
fired Saturday in the contest being
made by DR.. Smith Hollis Mckim,
of New York, in the divorce suit
brought against him by Margaret
Mckim in Judge Pixies court.
Judge Glynn, representing DIR. Nc
Kim, appeared and asked that he be
and appear especially for that pur-
pose only SO that he might attack the
jurisdiction OF the court over Mrs.
Mckim without subjcCting himself or
his client in the case to the JurisdiC-
ton OF the court. Attorney James
Boyd opposed the motion, stating that
while the motion to appear specially
in a plea in abatement was unique
the motion to secure permission to
file this plea in abatement from the
court was till more unique and unu>-
ual. At the close OF an argument
which lasted several hours, Judge
Pike took the matter under advise
ment.
| Judge Glynn is not attacking Ncya-
da's law. He is only claiming that
Mrs. Mckim has not lived up TO
the laws OF Nevada, and is therefore
not a resident OF the state. His con
@tention is, that She came To Nevada
solely for the purpose oG securing
divorce, and that therefore She is no,
a boni idc resident OF the state, anC
not legally entitled to invoke I'll,
divorce law OF Nevada for relief from
the ties chat bind.
