OR YSTAL FALLS


Senator Moriarty appeared before
the accident board at Lansing last
Tuesday to argue the claim of the
widow of James Richards for benefit
under the compensation law. The case
was heard by committee OF three in
Crytsal Falls last fall and decided
adversely TO the widow. The commit
tee at that time consisted of Mr..
Reeevs, member of the commission
e. j. Bregger and II. G.. Fraser and
it was the decision of this committee
by vote of two to one that the Bristol
Mining Co, was not liable for any
damages In the case.
The widow had but one appeal from
this decision and that WAS to the full
board. Senator Moriarty, who had
Mrs Richards case, decided TO go the
limit and has put the matter mp 10
the highest power
The case is much different from any
that has come before the commission
before. Mr.. Richards received an in
jury to his foot while at work in the
Bri stol mine last summer. Before he
got entirely well, or at least we'll
enough TO start work again. he was
attacked with typhoid fever and died.
The widows attorneys argue that
his system was so weakened by the
injury to his foot that 10 was unable TO
Withstand the attack of the fever and
it Is upon this point that they hope
20 get favorable ruling from the
board.
The attorneys tor the company
claim that there was no connection be-
tween the two and argue that the sys-
tenn of the deceased was not affected
at all by the accident
The case Will be watched with inter
est by all employers or labor as IL IL

establishing limit TO the liability OF
employers for injury or death of their

Wounded Man Unable 10 Be atHearing and
New Bondsmen Were Approved

The hearing in the shooting case in
which Leonard Nicola. the copper
country labor agent is accused of
wounding one Joseph Scolari IN this
city last week, was postponed until
the 10th because the wounds Of
Scolari would not admit of his being
taken from the hospital to the justice
Office TO attend the hearing.
Mr.. Nicola was on hand with his
attorney, Leigh Caswell, and on advice
from Prosecuting Attorney Waffen
that the examination couldn't be held
on the day originally set. Judge
Dawson ADJOURNED it until next Tues
day.
The two local bondsmen of Nicola
were present and released from further
liability. MIR. Nicola presented bond
signed by John A. Donahue and AL
fred b. Scott. two Hancock men. A
letter from the Hancock bank was
presented TO Justice Dawson telling
Of the reliability of the two men and
upon the representations thus made
they were accepted.

surely occur on the next date set and

The council is aware of the fact that
there has been quite few pieces OF

Say He Confessed

A rumor is ahoat to the effect that
Joseph Scalori. the man wounded by
Leonard Nicola, confessed TO Sheriff
Sensiba and to Prosecuting attorney
Waffen and that his confession impli-
Gates Gallia. very much more deeply
than the actions of the ran on the
surface would indicate.
: Neither of the officers could be found
today to get an naturalization of the
rumor but the source from which ii
emanated wonld indicate that il is
authentic.
Gallia is spoken of as a bad actor in
the community ana his escapsdes got
him discharged from employment at
most ot the properties. He appealed
10 some OF our prominent citizens TO
assist him In getting work and he was
told that II he would go TO work. mind
his business and let other people alone
they would help him and on that pro.
misc he was given second trial but
he Immediately got busy agitating and
was discharged again
He soon afterwards applied at the
Ravenna mine and upon Captain Bow
den refusing to employ him again he
treatened to blow mp the captain 3
house with dynamite. He was then
arrested and his case was noticed Mt
the last term of the circuit court but
continued on the part Of the defendant
bis last escapade alienated all sym
pathy that was shown him and II this
confession reveals that the true in-
wardness Of the man is criminal the

MOTHERS PENSIONS
Iron County Has Thirteen Widows on the

WI WV WIN OF 0ksOOO
AT the session of the probate court

member on the roll of this county.

the latter being over half of the entiie
number. There have been some ex-
travagant statements made as TO the
total expenditure for the county
under the law. Treasurer Reynolds in
forms Us that it will amount to just
about 50, 500 for the year as some of
the pensioners will be cut down dur
ing the summer months.
Judge Rite has conferred with the
supervisors in each case before allow
ing the pension and while he seeks to
keep the number down to the lowest
possible limit. the list continues TO
grow, but il is growing slowly and
the total expenditure is not in proper
tion with the number OF pensioners.
The rate for the month Of March is
$2SS
This new law has caused great
deal of discussion all over the state.
Upper Peninsula counties where the
greatest number OF pensioners appear
are Gogebic and Iron. Marquette
county has remarkably small NUN.
ber while Houghton is reputed to be
spending but $1,000 weekly. The
reason for the small total in Hough-
ton is that Judge Bently construes the
law to apply only to dependant chill
dren.
Wayne county has joined Gogebic in
test of the law in the supreme court
and judges throughout the state are
watching anxiously the result of the

CARPENTER DRIFT
NOW IN THE ORE
SHAFT IS LOCATED AT A DISTANCE
FROM The ORE BODY
DEVELOPMENT AT THE JUOsON
ClevsIand-Cl lifts Co. Has Not Yet Signl-
fled Their Intention a, to Develop
ment on Sec. II.

The drift at the Carpenter mine is
in the ore, or more correctly speaking,
in tho ore formation for the quality
OF the ore tnat had been encountered
mp TO last Saturday night ia not OF the
very best. as we understand Ii.
The depth at which the drift Was
run is trihe over 300 feet so that but
little can be told OF the deposit until
at least another fifty feet has been
dropped. Drifting In the ore forma.
tion has continued over week but
the quality has not increased to very
appreciable extent.
The Carpenter shaft was purposely
located at distance from the ore body
80 as to obtain the advantage of better
sinking conditions. In fact .'they
builded better than they new" when
they started the shaft at the point
that they did for the sinking was
practically IN dry ground all of the
way. A drop shaft was carried down
but, as things turned out. there was no
necessity for this type of shaft. the
ground being excellent sinking ma
terial
The locating of the shaft at so great
distance necessitates a lot Of drifting
to cut the ore body-we understand
that the distance is a trife over 500
feet--but il has the redeeming feature
that when caving commences there
need be no fear of the shaft being i'm
jured by caving ground. Shaft sink
ing is an expensive proposition and
drifting is very much cheaper.
AS soon as the clean ore is reached,
and the operators expect to reach II
shortly, the work of erecting the shaft
house will be commenced and the
Carpenter will be ready to send ore to
the docks

all hoisted from the drifting work
that is being carried on.
The plan upon which the ore body
will be worked has not been announced
yet--in fact IL is probable that the
method will depend a great deal upon
conditions that are found to exist
when the ore body IS entirely opened
mp
The shaft will soon be dropped an
other lift and the ore body opened at
greater depth and drained, an opera,
tion that will assist very materially
in an economical mining of the ore
