The secretary will receive no filings after
July IS, but 1t requires five or six days
after that date to get the sample ballots

That would have given at least twenty
four days for the legislature to have acted
had the governor issued his call for II to

notice OF election in those districts where

reasons advanced by the governor for turn

not sufficient time to call the legislature

CUNNINGHAM IN
At TACK ON CLAWS
DECLARES HE WAS TRAPPED
INTO SIGNING AFFIDAVIT UN-
DER FALSE PRETENSE.

Cleveland, March PA bitter at
tack on Louis r. CLAWS by Clarence
Cunningham was a feature of yester-
days inquiry by United States Com
missioner MCGEE into the Cunningham
coal claims in Alaska.
Cunningham on the witness stand
charged the former land agent, CLAWS,
with having trapped him into signing
an affidavit under false pretenses and
of having pretended a desire to have
the Cunningham entries cleared for
patent when he was really endeavoring
TO have them declared fraudulent
The affidavit in question has figured
prominently in the Ballinger-Pinchot
inquiry and was the basis of dis
cussion of the perjury statutes in the
congressional committee in Washing
ton Yesterday In it, Cunningham de
MES in detail that the Guggenheim
syndicate was interested in the SO
claims which he located and which
it is now contended by the govern
ment, are fraudulent.
Cunningham asserted that the af-
fidavit was dictated by CLAWS, Who
induced him to sign it on the under
standing that it was solely for the
purpose of securing the patents
CLAWS had assured him that the
claims We're perfectly sound and that
he personally would do everything
he could to have them passed by the
land Office.
Cunningham reiterated his declara-
ton that at no time did the Guggen-
helms ever advance any money in the
interest of the entrants and that they
had never had any interest whatso-
ever in the claims. He explained that
the option they claimed to hold had
been merely provisional and had
never been ratified.

MIL WAUKEE HAS
BLACKHAND SCARE
TRIAL OF ITALIAN FOR ASSAULT
EXPECTED TO REVEAL
SENSATION.

Milwaukee, March 1.-TWO letters,
which it is thought will reveal the
existence in Milwaukee of black
hand organization, will be introduced
as testimony in the case Of Joseph
Riggio an Italian, charged by Antonio
Pollinzi, another Italian, with assault
with intent to murder, when it comes
up in district court today.
The letters were turned over 10
Attorney John L. Donovan, counsel
for the prosecution, only few days
ago Riggio has been in jail under
$4,000 bail since February Is. He
was arrested here on that date, imme
diately after he returned from Keno
sha It is charged he fed to that city
after attacking Pollinzi here year
ago Riggia was arrested on the day
of his arrival in Milwaukee by Patrol
man Michael Peck.
Although the trial of the case has
been several tiDies set, it is said that
intimidative tactics have been used
Vi into not appearing against Rigglo.
1t is said that each time that POllinZl
has attempted to take the stand, a
party of Italians, sitting up toward the
front of the courtroom, have waved a
black glOved hand, and that thereafter
Pollinzi refused TO testify against the
prisoner Several times the complain
ing witness has attempted to have the
police and his attorneys drop the
case against Riggio. They have pre-
vailed on him to continue prosecution.
The letter was written by Riggio to
Pollinzi one year ago, just before he
assaulted Pollinzi with a knife near
the Northwestern depot at the foot OF
Wisconsin street.
The other letter written by Riggio
while he was in Jail year later is
addressed to his aunt. 1t is clearly
the result of the first letter. as refer
ence is made in this later note to the
communication to Pollinzi.
