Supreme Court Hands Down Decision Which Will Bankrupt Cali
 fornia Oil Men.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24-Among the important findings handed down by the Supreme Court Tuesday was the decision upholding the action of William H. Taft. wnlle president of the United States, in withdrawing the oil lands in the states of California, Colorado and Wyoming from public entry and refusing to permit the lands to go to patent. The Supreme Court holds that the patents of the oil lands which have already gone to patent were obtained by fraud and therefore subject to cancellation.
 The decision of the court annuls title to oil lands valued at more than $1OO 100000 in California and Wy oming alone. The Union Oil Com pany, of California, with a capital ization of $50,0O0,000, will be par ticularly hard hit as nearly all its holdings are included in the tracts cancelled by the decision. The com pany has passed into the hands of British capitalists and it is believed they will endeavor to purchase the lands from the government under the regulation governing the purchase of mineral lands.

 IS DEAD

BARABOO. Wis. March 19-Ex- Judge Arthur H. Moves, who presided on the bench in Alaska during 1900 and 1901, when the famous fight for the rich placer claims on Anvil creek, in the Nome district. was being waged died at his home in this city today Deceased was 61 years of age
 Moves was appointed judge of the Second division of Alaska in the spring of 1900. and shortly after his arrival at Nome appointed Alexander Me Kenzie. political leader of North Da- kota, as receiver for a number of claims staked by Lindeberg, Lind bloom and others, against whom suit had been filed in the district court to oust them from the property, on the ground that they were aliens and had no right to stake the same. The ac- tion of the court aroused considerable feeling in the camp and at one time an attempt was made by the friends of the aliens to forcibly take the gold dust cleaned-up from the claims from the safe deposit vault in the bank. Mckenzie frustrated the raid by guarding the treasure with drawn gun and defying the mob.
 The litigation was carried to the Circuit Court of Appeals and for his refusal to obey an order from that court Judge Moves was declared in contempt and sentenced to pay heavy fine. Others indicated in the litigation were given jail sentences. This trouble was a basis of Rex Beach's novel "The Spoilers" which had such a run and was later drama tized, Judge Moves being the lead ing character in the story.
