ARGUMENTS BEGIN
THIS MORNING IN
GUNN-NELSON CASE
Latter Institutes Proceed
ings Seeking to Gust Gum
Pharmacy From Nine
teenth Street Store

Seeking to Gust the Gum pharmacy
from its present quarters on the northwest
corner of Third avenue and Nineteenth
street, unlawful detainer proceedings
were brought yesterday by Frank Mel
son, Jr., in the court of common pleas
before Judge I. H. Benners. The evidence
was heard yesterday and the arguments
VIII begin this morning at o'clock. e.
ii. Cabaniss, one of the counsel for the
Nelson interests, will make the opening
argument. ]. L. Drennen will follow for
the defendant
The contention of the plaintiff is that
the Gum pharmacy is unlawfully holding
the property, inasmuch as the proper no
tice to vacate required by the conditions
OF the lease held by the Gum pharmacy
has been given and that the other condi-
tons have been compiled with. The de-
fendant contends that under the terms OF
the lease he is entitled to remain in pos
session of the property until 1916, and
that In the event of any cancellation OF
the lease by reason of new building
being erected on the suite. the Gum phar-
macy was to be provided with quarters
In the new building.
1t has already been announced that the
present building is to be torn down and
will be replaced by a two-story building,
to be occupied by the Woolworth and
10 cent store. The defendant contends
that under the Woolworth agreement the
conditions of the lease held by him can
not be complied with, and therefore the
pharmacy has right to remain in its
present quarters until the expiration OF
the lease. 1t is understood quarters in the
new building have been offered the phar-
macy, which the defendant claims to be
insufficient and undesirable.
The case will probably be taken to the
supreme court for final adjustment. Ca
baniss, Bowie & Cabaniss are attorneys
for the. Nelson interests. CASTOR, Pettds
& Drennen and Hugh Hill are attorneys
for the defendant.

The lawyer asserted that BrusskovsiSy,

When the journalist asked her why she

Margolin discredited the story of the
alleged offer of a reward but Vera RE-

if she would take of the guilt of the mlr

Names of Prominent Men in
Swindle

Obtaining money under false pretenses
was the charge docketed against two men,
giving the names of John Doe and jack
son Adams, who were arrested yesterday
afternoon in an Oxmoor boarding house
by local detectives. The arrest followed
an exciting chase.
The two men are said to have con-
fessed, following their arrest, at police
headquarters to passing specially pre-
pared paper checks in the downtown bus
mess district. They are alleged to have
passed from 25 to 30 OF these slips OF

Statement In the Nature Of an

London. Dec. 3l.-After q fortnight
OF sparring and feinting, Turkey has
finally shown her hand in the peace
conference. Mediation by the great
Powers is the Ottoman scheme for
emerging from the war with the best
face for the nation and for the pleni.
potentiaries which the situation Will
permit.
The Turkish delegates proposed
this solution in automatically guard
ed terms. The meeting was brief and
more strained than any which preced.
ec 1t and the Turkish tactics were
characteristic.
The delegation had received fresh
instructions from the porte, Rechad

to the point. to which the Ottomans

ents. He declared that he was able
to state that most Of the questions un.
der discussion should be referred to
the powers.
The boundary between Bulgaria and
Turkey was an exception; that was q
matter. he said, for direct settlement
between the two governments.
Then the Turkish delegates at
tempted to discuss the questions at
issue informally, but the allies insist
cd that they should put their PROPOSE
tions In writing, which, after a confer
ence, the Turks said they were not

The allies propose to bring affairs

sion OF the conference, tomorrow.
They express the determination not to

Mediation has two advantages from,

In the second place. mediation would
