ANOTHER LAWSUIT
ENLIyENs ROCHESTER,

Judge Quicker Monday afternoon
issued an order restraining the
Rochester Mines company, of which
Joseph F. Nenzel is president and
manager, from interfering with the
operation of the Rochester Crown
Point Mines company's lease, known
as No. 4, on the Crown Point No. l
claim at Rochester, says the Winnie
mucca Star.
The restraining order followed the
institution of a suit by the Rochester
Grown Point Mines company. In the
complaint II is alleged that the plain
tiff entered into an agreement about
a month ago to use the latter's tun-
mel for the purpose of operating It's
lease and reaching its OWL ground
both leases being on the Rochester
Mines company's property. This
work was started, but the plaintin
was ordered by the defendant com
pany's superintendent Il cease opera
tions. as the working of the lease
through the Four J tunnel has not
been authorized by the parent COM
pany. Plaintiff then contracted with
the Four j. company to drive the
tunnel to its boundary line. which
was done, and on March % the plain
tiff started work on its W premises
through the Four J tunnel. The
plaintiff was again ordered to cease
operations and did SO. The institu-
ton of the suit followed, the plaintifi
asking for an injunction to RESTRAIN
the defendant from further interior
ing with II in the operations of its
lease and for such damages as 1t can
be proved have resulted from the in
reference.

sNAGBoAT DELIVERS PILES.
Will Be Used in Strengthening Pier.
at Fort WASHINGTON.

Having completed placing number
of piles about the United States Army
engineer service wharf at Fort Wash
ington, the snagboat York yesterday
returned from Fort Washington to this
city, and is lying at the engineers
wharf in the upper end of the harbor.
The engineers wharf at Fort Wash
ington. like the commercial pier at the
post, has recently received general
overha uling to put them in good order
for the heavy weights that are placed
on them. The piles driven about the
engineers wharf are for the purpose
of protecting the wharf against drift
ice, which is cut into the wharf by
the tides.
One of the wharves at Fort Washing
ton is used exclusively by the army
engineer service for the landing of ma
terial used in the improvement at Fort
Washington, and the other is open for
public use, and is on the schedules of
the river line steamers as stopping
point
1t is stated the old deeds which a
hundred years ago conveyed the land
on which Fort Washington now stands
contain proviso that the pier shall
always be open to the public, and this
has prevented it being closed, except
for army uses, long ago. Until about
wear ago, when more than half the
heavy artillerymen stationed at Fort
Washington were sent to Panama, the
wharf WAS one of the busiest on the
river. Now with but one company sta
toned there, the business done at the
wharf is comparatively light.
