WESTERN PACIFIC FINANCES

Some interesting figures have
been reported with show that the
Western Pacifi" cost including In
terest up to June 30, 1911 which
was about the end Of the construc-
ton period was about $40, 348, 900.
This il is stated was exclusive of
accrued interest on its secohd
mortgage bonds. Up to the
present time is estimated, the
Western Pacific has expended close
to $4,000, 900. The Pacific coast
extension Of the Gonld system
exceeded the original estimates by
approximately $25, 100000. 1t is
expected that the new road will in
a reasonable length of time. fully
justify the additional burden. The
outlook is so bright IN fact, that
the company is going right ahead
with improvements and expendi-
lures. In the first half of the
resent fiscal year the company
was said to be earning close to
$4,000 per mile per annum. Under
ordinary business conditions, with
the line fully established and the
trafi thouehly acquainted with the
service the road can render, the
company, it is claimed, shouts
easily double this amount.

JACK FLYNN DISCHARGED

Through the kindness of Judge
Perky we have been furnished with
copy f" the Idaho Statesman con-
tanning the following account of
the preliminary examination of
Jack FLYNN who shot Connors at
Jarbidge last month:
Jack Flynn. miner and expert
drillman, who from the one sided
reports published In the papers of
last week was represented as a
cowardly would be assassin, had
his hearing before the justice
court yesterday and the evidence
there brought forth placed the case
In an entirely different light.
There were seven eye witncsse to
the shooting and six of these
witnesses were unanimously of tie
opinion that Flynn was in no way
the aggressive party. Their
testimony was very clear that
Flynn refused to shoot until he was
shot at; that he had ample time and
opportunity to shoot Connors if he
had so desired; that he had Just
come into towh from a trip in the
hills and carried both a revolver
and a shotgun; that the shotgun
was loaded only with small bird
shot; that he made no attempt to
draw his revolver; that he tried to
get away without shooting; that
Connors had rushed into a tent
and tent in which there was a
woman when he turned and shot
at Flynn from around the door
casing; that Flynn shot only in self
protection; that Flynn know ing
there was woman in the tent fired
high with the apparent dcsiI T. to
frighten Connors till he, Flynn,
could get away out of range as
he was backing all the time. A
few scattering shot only hit
Connors in the face after assirp
through the tent.
There was only one eye witness
~ho was friend IF Connors and
who it developed had secured
another gun for him who testified
differently. but he was SO mixed in
his testimony that his evidence was
worthless.
The evidence of the doctor who
dressed the wounds. end others was
conclusive that no shot was fired
at Connors back, although Flynn
had ample time to do this while
Connors was running for the tent
if he had been so inclined. 1t
further developed from the evil
dence that Flynn knew that Con-
nors was in town and that he
purposely went to restaurant in
the upper part of town to get his
dinner so as to go to his tent d
get rid of his guns before meeting
Connors, as he evidently feared that
should he have these guns in sight
when he met Connors there might
be trouble.
The judge in rendering his de-
cision and setting F ynn free, gave
him lecture on the individual
trying to settle difficulties with
gun in law abiding community
snd dewitt at some length on the
laws of Nevada and of ElkO
county which furnish abundant
protection to amy Of its residents
who take the proper steps to
secure this protection, that the
law is very stringent in this state
against the carrying Of concealed
weapons and thst he proposes to
uphold this law to the full extent
of the law; that the carrying of
coneaeld weapons. was menace to
public saftey and a disgrace to
the good name Of the camp,
