BUTTE AND ELY OPPOSES
MERGER WITH NEW COMPANY

Acting as he states in the petition
filed June 80 in the district court in
New York, in his own behalf and for
many other stockholders situated
similarly to himself in the Butte and
Ely Copper company, l. A. Hebron
ner petitions the court for receiver
tor the company named, for a re-
straining order which will prevent
the Butte and Ely company, through
its executive officers, Joseph E. Cot
ton. John w. Neukom and Edward ].
Nancy, from interfering in any man
ner with the trust fund of the COM
pany, removing any of the trust funds
from the treasury of the company, or
transferring any part of 249,175
shares of Butte and Ely stock into the
treasury of the Consolidated Copper
mines company He asks also that
he be allowed an attorneys fee of
$4,000. The order for hearing and
also for hearing the application for a
receivership is set for July 20, in
Judge McCleran's division of the
court.
The complaint. after reciting that
the holdings of the Butte and Ely in
clude 210 acres in the Robinson min
ing district in White Pine county,
Nevada; that the capital stock con-
sists of 100000 shares of the par
value of 81 each. of which the petit
toner owns 24,794 shares; that the
estate of the company is worth in ex-
cess of $500, 900, and has no bonded
indebtedness, alleges that the COM
pany was in a prosperous condition
until the defendants named wrong
fully. illegally and without right
withdrew -s246,00O from the trust
fund raised for the purpose of devel-
oping the property.
The series of events complained of
began September IL. 1903, with the
Giroux Consolidated Mines company
purchased 229,175 shares of Butte
and Ely stock at 81 per share, the
reasonable value at that time being
double that amount. and that this
stock was sold at $1a share for the
purpose of raising funds with which
to develop the Butte and Ely proper
ties. Out of the proceeds of this sale,
it is stated. less than $4,000 was
actually expended in such develop
ment work.
Defendant Manley, the complaint
alleges, at the request of Defendant
Cotton, withdrew from the DAILY
Bank and Trust company, where the
had $246.OOO on deposit.
500, 600, which was by the defen-
dants named removed from the
state" The withdrawal and removal
of this was without authorization. A
wrongful and misleading report was
made to the stockholders January II,
1912, the fact being that there was
5 100000 less on deposit in the bank
than shown by the report then SUBJ
mitted by the defendants. 1t is
claimed that Manley and Cotton with
drew the money illegally. and loan
ed it to the Giroux Consolidated
Mines company for the amount, with
interest at the rate of per cent.
This note was dated December 81
1912. and the deal was made without
the knowledge or authority of the
Butte and Ely directors.
Shortly after this transaction, the
complaint continues. the three de-

Deputy Sheriff Nicholson took his
prisoners to the hotel at Tippett, and
gave them a breakfast, and the re-
turn trip to Ely was made two of the
prisoners in the captured car. and

condition of the tires on the Califor-

gasoline which weighed about 500
pounds, was left at the Magnuson
ranch
The four men were arraigned be-

From there he was sent to Attor-
ney Leon c. Lewis. After talking to
the boy for awhile, Lewis said:
Il never handle criminal cases, but
your condition is so bad and the
treatment you received so outrageous
that will gladly take the matter up"
Yesterday the case was called be-
fore Judge Graham. The highland
edness of the police in dealing with
prisoners on whom they have abso-
lutely no evidence was completely
shown.
Although the boy was booked for
disorderly conduct they tried to prove
the burglary charge. The court asked
for witnesses.
"Why-ah-we haven't any," STAN
mered one of the officers.
why do you accuse him of rob-
berry," Judge Graham asked.
One of them suddenly seized upon
wonderful thought
''Why, you see, your honor, it was
like this; somebody claimed that he
was supposed to have an overcoat
and some one said he had tried to
sell it,
Mr. Someone" however, failed to
appear in court. The judge exoner-
ated the boy. ..
, Before being arraigned in court
the boy had told his story to Major
Funkhouser, second deputy superin-
tendent of police. Funkhouser was
so impressed by the story the boy told
that he sent him to the County Hos
pital for treatment and then opened
an investigation into the case.
The officers heard about the boy
telling of their cruel methods. They
were furious. Detective Muldoon
threatened to arrest him again when
ever he saw him.
''In make this town warm for you"
he threatened. "Il fix you for
squealing."

WOMAN PLAN TO FIGHT ATTACK
ON SUFFRAGE BILL
Local suffrage leaders are laying
plans to defeat the latest and most
serious attack made on the equal suf-
frage bill. The new assault on the
women is in the form of petition filed
by William ]. Scown, wealthy con-
tractor, to have the bill declared I'M
constitutional
Scown in his bill asks for an in
junction restraining the board of
election commissioners from carry
ing out the provisions of the suffrage
law passed by the Illinois legislature
and the woman's primary act, which
was passed four days later.
Scown bases his suit on the added
expense to the community of con-
forming to the law. He estimates
that at least 1922, 800 will be spent.
He also claims that the suffrage
bill is direct violation of section Z
of the state constitution. The petit
ton also charges that the granting
of right to women to vote on special
questions to come up at the 1914
elections, including the saloon ques-
ton in many territories, is viola
ton of the constitution.
Other special questions that will
come up in 1914 are the subway, the
assessment of taxes in excess of rs
cents per 500 valuation, and the an
nexation of outside territory.
Scown denies that the woman's
possible vote on the saloon question
was uppermost in his mind. But the
women point to he significant fact
that the attorneys who filed the bill,
Alfred S. Austrian and Levy Mayer,
are knowingly friendly to the liquor
interests.
The suit has been assigned to
Judge Foel of the Superior Court.
The women will demand that trial be

WHY POULTRY Is VALUABLE
Canadian Expert Gives Eight Reasons
In Reply to This Pertinent Cues
ton-Gcod Anywhere.

Why is poultry valuable to the
farmer? is a question asked by hun
dreds of tillers of the soil who usu'
ally keep but a few chickens, and
these a mixture of all breeds. Profes-
sor Gilbert of Ottawa, Canada, gives
the following reasons in answer to
this pertinent question:
I. Because he ought, by their means

waste of his farm into money IN
the shape OF eggs and chickens for
market.
.. Because, with intelligent man.
agement they ought to be all-year rev.
cnue producers, with the exception OF
possibly two months during the
moulting season.
5. Because the poultry will yield
him a quicker return for the capital
invested than any of the other de
partmenfs of agriculture.

done during hot weather and less

Colored stockings with buttoned

many women find colored hose much
better for the feet than black hose.
In these days of narrow skirts the

It is impossible to raise the skirt in
