FINED FOR CONTEMPT

claimants to the Sybil gold mining
properties in Shasta county with a
shotgun in the face of an order of
court, was fined 5000 for contempt yes
terday by United States District Judge
Van Fleet.
II was shown in his defense that the
plaintiff, Rose, who foreclosed on a lien
on the properties, had neglected his
interests for eight years, during which
time the Accident mining company in
which Won Krusze holds an interest, re-
located the claims.
The rival claims will be fought out
in a civil suit.
