FOR RECEIVER
IS DENIED

The petition of Peter Cononelos.
asking that receiver be appointed to
look after the affairs of what was
formerly known as the Workingmen' S
Bakery at McGill was denied in the
district court yesterday by Judge c..
J. McFadden II Cononelos Company.
Peter Bratsos and Harry Giantselis
were made defendants in the action.
In his complaint Cononelos alleged
that he had contributed one-fourth of
the assets of the corporation. and
was entitled to some profits. He
claimed that Kirkopulos, who receives
$50 month as manager. has been
guilty OF gross misconduct, and that
the business is being conducted at a
loss He asserted that under prop
er management profit of $3.50 a
month should be derived.
II Is the contention of plaintiff that
Kirkopulos employs more help than is
necessary. and that the affairs of the
partnership are mismanaged. He al
leges that no effort is being made to
secure new customers.
Cononelos also asserts that kirko-
pulos purchased articles for his per-
sonal use, appropriated The money
out of the partnership funds and
never charged the same to his ae-
count

START ACTION AGAINST
ILLEGAL SHEEP GRAZING

A crusade has been instituted by
Assessor Clark against owners OF
transient sheep from Idaho and other
outside states, who for many years
have ranged their herds in the east
ern part of the county during winter
months, and persistently refused to
pay taxes on their rowing bands.
1t is reported that in the neigh
borhood of 10000 head of foreign
sheep are now stationed in the vicin-
ity of Tippett. Deputy Assessor X.
G. Davis left last Thursday for that
locality to compel the tax evaders to
pay their proportion to the support
of the county government.
Wool growers are compelled to file
certificate with the Clerk on their
arrival or departure from one county
to another. A fine ranging from
500 to $500 is provided for violation
of this statutory provision.
Mr.. Davis expects to spend about
thirty days In the far east, and will
use stringent measures in compelling
the sheep owners to discontinue the
nefarious practice Mr.. Clark intends
to leave for Elko shortly to deter
mine how many owners of sheep, who
persist in their law-breaking stunt,
have taken out certificates as requir-
ed under the statutes.

Especial to the News)

The French advance In Alsace ap-
parently has been checked. Both the
French and German official state
ments of today tell of the recapture
by the Germans of Burnhaupt, lie
Haut, the town south of Steinbach,
capture of which by the French was
announced yesterday.
In the Argonne violent fighting is
again in progress. In one charge the
French lost umber of men as the
result of trap set by the Germans,
who permitted them to occupy
tranch and then blew it up.
Fighting has been resumed in the
Aisne region. where the Allies claim
to have captured three lines of Ger
man trenches. covering six hundred
metres of the front. The German
statement, however. says that French
attacks in this region were repulsed.
German armies are again striking
at Warsaw from two directions.
Along the Vistula to the west of the
Polish capital heavy fighting has
been launched from the north. The
Petrograd war office describes the
fighting as more and more desperate
and admits that the Germans made
advances at many points. but states
that they were subsequently driven
back again.
Coincident with the Russian sweep
through the Austrian provices of
Bukowina. plans are under way in
the adjacent country of Roumania for
mobilization of the army. Unofficial
advices state that the entrance of
Roumania into the war is expected.
A Geneva report says that an Aus
trian army has been trapped in Ca
licia by the Russians who by an un-
expected movement caught the Aus
trians at a disadvantage on difficult
ground and that placed them in
precarious position. There was no
confirmation, however, of this re-

ToDiscontinue
Sunday Trains
DEPRESSED BUSINESS CONDI-
TIONS CAUSE NEVADA NORTH
ERN TO REDUCE TRAIN SER
VICE ON MAIN LINE.

The discontinuance of the Sunday
train service between Ely and Cobre
has been decided upon by the Ne
vada Northern Railway company. The
new order becomes effective on Janu-
ar "a. The necessity for the company
to reduce operating expenses to &
minimum as a result of the serious
effect on business throughout the dis
trict because the copper market has
been seriously hampered resulted ir
the decision to eliminate Sunday
trains on the main line.
The earnings of the Nevada North
ern have been on downward trend
every month since the starting of
hostilities in Europe, and the receipts
are now fifty per cent below normal
Railroad officials claim that it would
not be possible to meet the situation
by further reduction in expenses.
The introduction of certain meas
ures in congress may result in Sun

bills provide for the carriage of mai
throughout the country at the space
instead of the weighing system, and
the passage of any of these would re-
duce the mail compensation of the
Nevada Northern more than fifty PEI
cent. The present contract of the Ne
vada Northern with the government
provides for service six days a week
and the company has not been re-
warded in a financial way the las.
three years for delivering mails or
Sundays. Manager l.. G. Cannon
stated that the Nevada Northern has
performed such service willingly be-
cause Of the accommodation to the
residents of the district. He express
es the hope that business will become
normal in the near future. and that
adverse legislation affecting the com
pensation of railway mail carrier.
may not interfere with the resump-
tion of the service.
Elsewhere in this issue of the
News will be found statement from
General Manager L. G.. Cannon, rela-
tive to existing conditions that have
led to the cancellation of the mair
line Sunday passenger trains.

FANS WILL WITNESS NINE IN
MING GAME LATE IN MARCH,
5000 Is NEEDED.

The Chicago White Sox, in arrang-
ing it's itinerary throughout the west
err states. is anxious to schedule
game with a picked aggregation of
diamond performers in the Ely dis
trict either on Tuesday, March 80 or
the day following.
Henry Grabner, secretary of the
club, has written letter to Fred
Waits of East Ely inquiring what the
local enthusiasts would offer as bo-
nus to the former worlds champions
for a nine inning fracas in this neck
of the woods
The extra expense that would be
entailed as result of trip off the
main travelled roads is dwelt upon
by Mr.. Grabner, and as Ely is situ-
ated on a branch road. it is not in
cluded in the transportation of the
members of the White Sox party.
Mr.. Waits intends to confer with
the leading enthusiasts at Copper
Flat, McGill and other portions of the
district for the purpose of institute
ing a campaign for the raising of suf-
ficient funds to entertain the distin-
guished visitors. Mr.. Waits estimates
that it will be necessary to subscribe
$500 to insure the presence of the
students of the diamond game from
the windy city.

TION To REDUCE ANTONE'S
BAIL FROM $4,000 TO $500.

war. allenllon. FIX DasOnel5.
The district courtroom last Friday
had every appearance OF being in
close proximity to the war zone last
Friday afternoon, when District At
torney Jurich and Attorney b. l..
Quayle, representing Jim Anton, ac-
cused of the theft of $1100 from the
Copper National bank, threw their
hats into the ring and declared war
against each other. The engagement
bal cannon.
The casus belli was the attempt on
the part OF the prosecution to have
Antones bond raised from $500 to
$1,000. During the course OF the ar
guments they scoffed and pesterod
each other, and the laurel leaf was
not much in evidence. The applica-
ton was denied by Judge McFadden
yesterday morning
Little did II. w. Edwards. the new
ly elected Justice of the Peace. real
lie that when he performed his first
official duties last Friday morning
his action in binding Anton over to
the district court on charge of
grand larceny. and fixing his bond
at $500. would preeipitate legal ar
gument featured with acrimony and
bitterness in higher court a few
hours later.
The pyrotechnics started when An
tone was ready to walk into the court
house with sufficient funds to insure
his liberty. The accused was not only
greeted with a bench warrant. but he
learned that an information had been
issued against him and his bond In
creased to $4,000.
Attorney Quayle wanted the bond
reduced. Zurich opposed the motion
because he asserted that II Antoine
we're allowed his liberty under $500
bonds he would disappear at the first
opportunity, and would be numbered
among the missing. when his case
was called for trial.
Then bomb exploded. Quayie de-
clared that he would inform the court
of matters not contained in the rec
ord. He intimated that Mike Bosta
owes Antoine money and that the pub
lie prosecutor was interested with
Bosta In a business way.
'If there Is any wrongdoing. why
doesn't counsel try to bring the gull
ty parties TO Justice" said Jurich.
The illustrious counsel who repre-
sents all good people, particularly
foreigners, was unusally energetic
