A fatal shooting affray occurred at
Buena Vista, on the line of the old
G. & c. narrow gauge, south of Soda
vile, on July 18th, in which William
Davis was shot and killed by Edward
Burke. 1t seems that the men, who
were both prospectors, had trouble
near Bishop some time previously.
They met at Buena Vista, where
both were drinking. Burke spread
his blankets near the station and
about 9 o'clock at night Davis placed
his bed near that af Burke, when
the latter ordered him away Dur
ing the controversy that followed,
Burke drew pistol and fired, killing
Davis almost instantly. There was
only one eye witness to the shooting
Ed. Williams-and he is held here
in jail as a witness.
The inquest was held by Coroner
Eckley of Nina. Burke waived a
preliminary examination, and was
bound over to the District Court for
trial
District Attorney Melrose, who at
tended the inquest, has filed an in,
formation with the District Court,
charging Burke with murder.
No date for the trial has been fixed
as it is not known when Judge Som
ers can try the case.

District Court

TIE District Court convened last
week, Judge L. n. French presiding.
The only case tried by the Court
was that of Mitchell vs.. Guinan.
This is an interesting mining case
and occupied the Court three days.
The questions involved make it an
intricate one. Mitchell located the
claim, portion of which is in dis
pute, on January 4th, 1911, after, as
he claims, it had been abandoned by
the Royal Tiger Mining Company on
January Sd, 1911. The defendant
Guinan, asserts that he located a
claim which includes the ground in
dispute on January Sd, 1911 with a
location notice ante dated January
I'd, 1911, after it had been abandoned
on January lst by reason of the Roy
al Company not doing its assessment
work for 1910. Guinan extracted Il
tons of ore in November, 1911, of a
mill value of $49S, which Mitchell
tied up by an injunction. 1t develop
ed that Mitchell was working on a
written grub stake agreement with
Mrs. A. Gillespie. Mrs. Gillespies
husband was director and manager
of the Royal Tiger Company, which
it is claimed abandoned the proper
ty. Mrs. Gillespie was substituted
for Mitchell in the suit because it
was stated that she had purchased
MitchelPs tenth interest since the
making of the contract between
them.
On January 3, 1918, the property
was relocated by man named Binns
who subsequently sold to Mrs. Gill
lespie.
The case has been dragging in the
courts for two years past. The Court
instructed counsel as to what points
be wished them to treat in the briefs
which they are to submit to him be-
fore he renders his decision. Plain
tiff's counsel is to have 20 days to
file his brief, defendants counsel to
have 20 days to answer and defend
ants 10 days to reply.
Attorney General Thatcher, who
had been Secretary and Treasurer OF
the Royal Tiger Company, came to
town Tuesday night and testified.
His testimony bordered on the SEN
sational, and was met by as snappy
response.
Attorney Cooke of Tonopah ap-
peared for plaintiff, and Moreehouse
and Thompson for defendants.
