Attorneys Disappointed at verdict.

The trial of the turpentine case
which has been going on In the Uni.
ted States court in Bluefield has been
finished. The government claimed
$4,000 damages, alleging that the
Union Naval Stores Co, West Vir-
ginia company, had taken from gov.
eminent lands In Mississippi turpen.
tine and rosin amounting to that much.
The jury gave the government yer.
dict for $1S.091.12. 1t was charged by
the government that the agents of the
Naval Stores Co, had caused irrespon.
sible entries to be made ON govern.
ment land and that the turpentine got.
ten from the land was for the Naval
Stores Co. This the company denied,
saying they had paid the men for the
|tlrpentine and were not responsible il
the Shomesteaders had deserted the
land. The verdict was very disap.
pointing to the government attorneys
and they Immediately made motion
that the verdict be set aside and argu.
ment will be heard on this motion at
Charleston. They claim that yer.
dict should carry, with It the full value
Of all the turpentine and rosin, the yer.
dict received not being more than one
years output. The case was the
longest that has ever been tried here,
the Naval Stores Co. being West
Virginia corporation elected to be
tried here.

Many ouaIls Killed in Kentucky.


Two hundred thousand quails were
slaughtered in Kentucky last year
and shipped out of the state, accord
ing to Charles e. Brewster, counsel
for the federal game department, who
has been in Kentucky working up
cases against game law violaters, and
who addressed the Game and Fish
commission here. He has absolute
proof, consisting of express receipts
and other evidence to be submitted
to federal grand juries, to account for
100000 and he said as many more
were shipped out. The hunters re-
eeived an average of % apiece for the
birds. Thirty-five cases are prepared
for prosecution before federal grand
juries, and the Game commission ex-
poets to put stop to this traffic.
The commission was in session and
went over the entire work of the de-
partment and its finances. Among
other things considered was the pay Of
game wardens The commission in
tends to make the money available go
as far In this way as possible. So
far 9,100 licenses have been issued,
not including October sales. and Ex-
ecutive Agent J. Q. Ward estimates
that between $4,000 and $4,000 will be
sold. Communications will be sent
out to the press of the state urging
hunters not to wait until November IA
to get their licenses.
President J. s. Sachs, Of Louisville.
and Commissioner A. G. Patterson, OF
Pineville, and J. E. Order, .Jr.. OF
Fredonia. were present.

Rules Against Police Pensioners.

Louisville police pensioners, who
were on the pension roll before the
police pension act OF 1912 was passed,
are not entitled to remain on the roll
unless they are qualified to receive
pensions under the provisions OF the
new law, according to an opinion OF
the Court Of Appeals handed down in
four cases from the Jefferson Circuit
Court, in which pensioners sought
writs of mandamus to compel the Pen
sion Board to transfer their names to
the new pension roll. The court held
that 1T was the plain purpose of the
act to wipe out not only the old act
but all claims to pensions under 1t
and to inauguarate new system"

All TO Have Rife Ranges.

All but four companies of the Ken
lucky National Guard now have rife
ranges and three Of these speedily will
be supplied. 1t has been impossible SO
far to secure land around Lexington
for the company stationed there. Lieut..
John H. Perry will go to Whitesburg
to select range for that company,
and Capt. H. w. Rogers, OF the adju-
tant generals department, will go to
Murray to locate a range there. The
greensboro range is being laid out.
The range at Frankfort will be aban-
doned the first OF the year, but anoth-
er one will be secured. Ninety acres
were leased here, the intention being
to use 1t for maneuver grounds, but
1t has proven inadequate.

| May Buy Short Line.

1t has been reported on good author.
lily that the Chesapeake & Ohio rail-
way is making an effort to acquire the
White Oak railway, short line, per.
haps 81 miles in length, running be.
tween Lester and Prince. A special
Chesapeake & Ohio train Of four cars
carrying high officials of the road pass,
ed over the White Oak branch. and it
has since been learned that this was
an inspection trip, with a view toward
purchasing the line. This is private
line, and is popularity supposed to be
owned entirely by Samuel Dixon. The
branch line connects with the Wiz,
gilman railway at Lester and with the
Chesapeake & Ohio at Prince. This is
rich coal road and would prove OF
great value to the Chesapeake & Ohio
people. 1t is considered one OF the
richest mining branches in the state
Of West Virginia and skirts the coal
fields upon the Virginian. The acqui.
sition OF this road would place the
Chesapeake & Ohio railway practically
in the midst OF the virginian field, and
unless the purchase has already been
effected, 1t Is predicted that the latter
road will become bidder for this val,
liable branch line. Among the other
valuable properties along this strip
Of track, the most important perhaps
| is the operation OF the White OaN
Coal Co.

Mercer was the last county to be

whole state organized, but it was only
this year that the officers Of the state
association have been successful in
organizing the last three counties,
Pendleton, Wyoming and Mercer.
On his last trip Mr.. Arnold covered
the Norfolk and Western from one
end to the other In this state. County
Sunday School conventions were held
in Cabell, Mingo. Wayne, Mcdowell
