TO DECIDE
RIGHTS OF
THE CITY
SUIT OF HANLEY AGAINST MED
BC4.D FOR RIGHT OF WAY FOR
WATER MAINS ARGUED BE
FORE SUPREME COURT TODAY.

After occupying during its course
of legal procedure the attention of
two different circuit judges, also the
attention at one time of the governor
of the state, the well-known case of
M. r. Hanley against the city of Med
ford, ct al, was submitted to the su-
perior court for decision today, and
the greater portion Of the day was oc-
cuped by the court in listening to the
arguments by the attorneys.
Right of Way Question Involved.
The case dates back to the year
1908, when the city of Medford
sought 10 secure a right OF way across
the land of NJ. f. Hanley for the pur-
pose of laying down pipe line and
securing certain water rights for
water system which it was installing.
The city had entered into a contract
with Hanley to pay him S25, 900 for
the right of way but afterwards de-
cided to secure il cheaper, and, look
ing to this end, amended IT'S charter
so that 1t could commence cOndemna-
tion proceedings against him. These
proceedings were instituted before
Judge Hanna, of Jackson county, and
he was asked to fix the amount TO
cover the reasonable damages to the
land because OF the right of way
sought, but he ruled that the legal
procedure was not in conformity with
law, and decided adversely TO the city
The next move on the part of the
city was 10 take that procedure usu-
ally resorted TO by irrigation com
panies-that OF backing up its action
in condemning land, by bonds, but
Judge Hanna again ruled against the
city. He was next requested by the
city to call special jury for the trial
Of the case on its merits. Afldayits
were filed In support Of the request
showing the city was threatened by
an epidemic OF typhoid fever, and
that IL was suffering In many other
respects because OF a good water sys-
TEN, but Judge Hanna declined 10
call the jury, cOntending that the city
had not shown due diligence In avail
ing itself OF its day In court.

Mrs. Sayler declared that her hus-

kept the matter secret. She said that
1t preyed on his mind until he was

Copenhagen, March 16.--Russia's s
establishment of secret police bu-
reaus here and at Stockholm to
watch Finnish politicians on their
journeys abroad threatens diplo-
matte trouble between the Danish
and Swedish governments on one
side and the St. Petersburg foreign
offices on the other.
Offense is taken at Russia's install
lation of branches of its espionage
system in the two capitals without
asking the consent of the Danish or
Swedish governments. The secret
agents simply made their appear
ance here and at Stockholm. They
have been identified as such and
they are maintained without a word
of explanation to the authorities of
the cities in which they are located.
The agents interference with Fin
nish travellers in Denmark and Swe-
den has also been so open as to
cause serious embarrassment. Sew
eral persons have complained of the
disarrangement of their papers in
hotel rooms and of the overhauling
of their luggage on trains and boats
in Danish and Swedish territory. It
is certain the secret agents we're the
offenders.
Both in Denmark and Sweden
there is much popular sympathy
with Finland's struggle to retain its
independence and that workers in
this cause should be harassed when
outside either Russia or their own
land, is arousing feeling of intense
indignation.
