a Carson City dispatch to the Reno
Gazette.
The states answer. which is veri-
fled by Gov. Boyle, admits the allega-
tions in the complaint relative to tho
existence of the board of directors of
the exposition and their appointment
OF Kindall as superintendent. 1t de-
MES, however, that Kendall has per-
formed all the duties attached t o his
employment" That kendall's bills
for salary were presented to the
board of examination and rejected
except for the month of May. 1915, is
admitted but denial is made that
there is a balance due Kendall of
$500, or of any other sum.
The complaint charges that from
the time Kendall filed suit against
Controller Jake Eggers in the SUI
preme court asking for a writ of
mandamus compelling the controller
to pay the claims till the court de-
cided Kendall was only a common
laborer and not the holder of AN Of
flee of profit in violation of the state
constitution. Kendall failed, neglec-
ted and refused to perform any of
the services required in and by his
appointment as superintendent and
did not perform any of the services
required of him by reason of said
employment"
Then follows the allegation of en-
ployment of another man TO do Ken
dalls work. the allegation reading:
That by reason of the refusal
failure and neglect of said plaintiff
to perform the duties incumbent
upon him, in such employment as
superintendent. this defendant was
compelled to employ and pay another
superintendent. and did pay % said
superintendent. employed to perform

FIRE DESTROYS ONE OF

The Office building and residence oil

most totally destroyed by a fire
which originated in the office about
5 O'Clock Monday afternoon. Soon
after the discovery of the blaze
large force Of volunteer iremen was
on hand. but inability to secure hose
and insufficient pressure rendered
their efforts to confine the fire to the
Office building of no avail. The Of
flee and residence were separated by
a distance of 20 feet, but in a short
time the flames had jumped this dis
lance and the roof of the home was
a solid mass of flames.
AT this point it seemed useless to
devote any more time to the Wilcox
home and considerable attention was
given to saving the residence OF
Charles Berg, adjoining. However
more lines of hose were secured and
attached to the Verdi Lumber com
pany's water main and attention once
more was directed to saving the Will
cox home. In the meantime willing
workers had carried everything OF
value out of the house to a safe dis
lance from the flames.
So serious did the fire appear to
be that J. H. Breach. agent of the
Southern Pacific company. telegraph

was we'll under control. but the rail-
road crew soon had a stream of wa

and in a few minutes more the fire
was out
The Wilcox residence was one of
the finest in the vicinity and was
built less than four years ago. The
origin of the fire is unknown.
