GOM9ERS in COURT.
Labor Leader Makes Answer to Charge
of Contempt.

Washington, July 17.-Attacking the
jurisdiction of the court and the le-
gality of the proceedings, President
Samuel Gompers, Vice President John
Mitchell and Secretary Frank Morri-
son of the American Federation of
Labor. appeared in the equity branch
of the supreme court of the District
of Columbia today to resist the latest
contempt order issued against them by
Justice Wright. The first moves were
of a technical nature and were over
ruled by Justice Wright
A motion to dismiss, on the ground
that the service of the order was in
complete was sustained. but when
Justice Wright directed the marshal to
serve new papers forthwith the point
was waived.
Next the defendants moved co dis
miss because the report of the COM
mittee of lawyers submitted to the
court in the case was mo- proper
one, in that the members of the COM
mittee did not and could not exercise
the judicial qualities required in the
order. 1t was contended that the
members of the committee were coun-
sci for the National Anti-Boycott asso-
citation and that the conclusion of the
Buck Stove and Range com pany's case
did not stop their persecution of these
defendants and, therefore, they we're
not qualified to pass judgment upon
the acts of the defendants
The hearing today promised to be a
lengthy one. If all of the various mo-
tions by the defendants are dismissed,
an answer to the order will be fled
within the next two weeks. Should
the court hold that the answer raises
question of facts. the case will go
over until October, when all of the
members of the district supreme court
probably viii sit with Justice Wright
as advisers. This was announced by
Justice Wright today.
Technically, the defendants appeared
by counsel only today. Judge Alton B.
Parker Of New York and the local law
firm of Ralston, Siddon & Richardson
representing them. But in reality, all
three were on hand before court con-
vened, comforting with their lawyers
and friends
The case was adjourned until next
Monday without action.

son writes Trickett today as follows:
July IT, 1911.
Keplinger & Trickett. Kansas City,
Kansas.
Gentlemen: Your suggestions that I
now subpoena Mr.. House can not re
accepted for reasons already given to
the governor and the public. and for
such other reasons as I shall give the
supreme court when the mandamus
case is fled.
Your first suggestion is based upon
the assumption that desire to protect
Mr.. House. That assumption is wrong
and utterly erroneous.
Your second suggestion in which you
quote a provision of the code won't do
because we could never agree on the
facts. and the supreme court would
have no jurisdiction to hear such a
case-its original jurisdiction being
limited to quo warranto. mandamus
and habeas corpus, as these are known
and understood at common law.
Yours truly.
JOHN s. DAWSON.
Attorney General.

SUPREME COURT
NAMES SPECIAL
COMMISSION
GEO. T.. SANFORD WILL HANDLE
THE DISPUTED ELECTION
BALLOTS.

CARSON CITY, June 3.-Yes-
terday morning the members of
the supreme court took up the
election contest cases between
Springmyer VS.. Baker, and Legate
VS.. Josephs. AS previously an
nounced the court decided to name
a commissioner or referee to han
die the ballots and thu. save the
members of the court the trouble
and time of going over the matter
George l.. Sanford, the district
attorney of this county, was named
to act for the members of the
court, his duties and compensation
to be named later. On the 18th
of June the matter comes up for
argument. Should the court find
that a contest is warranted the
date will be set and the count can
start
In case of either side throwing
out ballots they will be set aside
and the supreme court will pass
upon their legality.
1t is understood that Springmeyel
will call for the Washoe county
ballots first. Should he not fine
what he is looking for, he will
call for ether precincts and coun.
ties. In case he should gain any
ballots he would rest the case
and then it would be up to Baker
to call for any additional ballots
he cares to. The same precedent
VIII be used in the Legate-Josephs
case.

STORY OF The
indian OUTBREAK
WAS A MYTH
REPORTS OF RESERVATION SAY
INDIANS GLAD MIKES BAND
WAS ANNIHILATED.

RENO, June 3.-That the story
sent out from the north that there
were eighteen Shoshone Indians on
the war path in Soldiers Meadows,
all heavily armed, and looking for
white scalps, was myth and moth
ing more, is shown by the state
ment of George II. Daggett, agent
of the Duck Lake Indian reserva-
tion.
After the battle between Indian
Mikes band and sheriffs' posses,
cowboys and the Nevada state po-
lice, the United States government
officials began watching the Indians
on the Duck Lake reservation very
closely and when a report reached
Washington that a number of Sho-
shOne Indians from the reservation
were On the war path the Indian
agent at Owyhee was ordered to
investigate the matter. The agent,
George Daggett, then began an in
Vestigation and called together all
the Indians on the reservation
Last Monday he found that not an
Indian was missing from those
cared for on the reservation.
Further than this Agent Daggett
says that the Indians on the reser.
walton are glad that Indian Mike
and his renegade followers were
killed.

CHARLES LANE FIGURES
AS A SILVER MAN

With the death of Charles Lane
passes one of the most picturesque
figures of western mining. He was
a gold miner and took tons of the
precious metal from the earth. In
spite of that he was silver man
on the ground that it was unfair
to make gold valuable at the ex-
pense of the men who owned silver
mines.
He financed Bryan's personal
campaign and gave him $4,000
to help pay expenses.

convention the Nevada delegation
We're about broke. They were dis
cussing the financial situation at a

carefully tossed a big, fat pocket
book over into the group and re-
marked

walked on.
The writer united the strap off
of the wallet and it was filled
with 500 greenbacks. Each man
took what he wanted, and in about
ten minutes Lane showed UP puff
ing long cigar.
All hands thanked him and each
man proceeded to tell how much
he had borrowed. Lane waved
them aside with:
ooh, don't bother about details.
l am willing to loan you all the
money you need, but I'm blamed
if can keep books for you"
About six months later the writ

he had got all his money back he

RAIN OF 500 BILLS
STARTLES HOTEL MAN.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 7.-Charles
Dunston, d%oorkeeper of the Hotel Wal
ton. went out in a rain-storm of 500
bills Yesterday. He took a squint at the
sky and predicted rain. just as he was
turning away he noticed a big green
spot coming apparently from the clouds,
1t was a 500 bill.
Dunston continued to look skyward
for more drops and, sure enough,
another ono came his way. This was
followed by a third and fourth, and he
still was looking for more when a
wildly excited man, in negligee, dashed
out of the hotel.
'Have you seen four 500 bills?' de-
manded the one in negligee, who was
George Allerton, of Chicago.
why, yes" answered Charles; ITS
been raining them quite regular, and |
expect more at any moment"
Allerton explained that the bills had
blown out of his window. Upon part
ing with a $40 reward he got the $500
back,
