ARGUMENTS HEARD
ON COFFIN CLAIM
Case Taken Under Advise
ment and an Early Decis
ion Is Expected.

Judge c. p. Mccarthy last night
heard the arguments of counsel upon
the petition filed in district court by
Il. C. Coffin in which he seeks to Sc
cure an attorney fee for his services in
the amount of s12,500 and expenses in
CURED in the examination of witnesses,
stenographers fees, ETC., amounting to
$1556.93, a grand total of $14,056.93.
Judge Mccarthy yesterday granted
restraining order restraining the law
firm of Hawley & Hawley from paying
over to the state the sum claimed by
Mr.. Coffin out of the judgment of
$147,614.91 and the argument last night
was based upon the legality of the
claim upon which the restraining order
was granted.
The state was represented by j. L.
Pence A. A. Fraser and ]. H. Peterson,
the attorney general, who engaged the
assistant attorney general to handle
the case upon which he is claiming the
big fee. The two former attorneys
made strong arguments, based upon
law and facts, showing why the claim
should not be paid, and Mr.. Peterson
spoke but briefly upon the case.
WANTS REASONABLE VALUE.
]. H. Richard, who represented Mr..
Coffin, did not 60 into the merits of
the claim, but simply cited that Mr..
Coffin should have a right to be heard
and declared that there was an incli-
nation not to give him an opportunity
to have his day in court to establish
the justice of his fee. He stated that
there was no disposition upon the part
of the claimant to tie up all the money,
but that he was willing that all the
amount should be paid over with the
exception of that claimed as a fee and
expenses, which they wished deposited
in a bank until the court could pass
upon the amount of fee.
As the case ties up a large amount
Of money, an early judgment from the
court Is expected.

Adjutant General Moody is in
northern Idaho inspecting recruiting
stations. In an interview given out
at Lewiston he praised the Idaho
regiment as follows:
mo regiment has received more
favorable mention. It is the only
regiment on the border among the
guard troops that took the federal
oath and the men are willing to re-
main there until Uncle Sam notifies
them that their services are no longer
from the front for having failed to
pass the physical examination and on
the hike to Huachuca, recently car
ried out, the deficiencies developed
were less than one-half of one per-
cent We all have a right to be
proud of the Idaho regiment"
Adjutant General Moody stated he
planned to visit Nogales about Sept.
information as to the situation will
decide whether at this time the war
department shall be petitioned to with
draw the regiment
Since the regiment has been at the
border three recruiting stations have
been maintained in the state to send
men to Nogales to take the places of
men discharged. These stations have
accepted As to date, especially effec-
tive work having been done by Lieu
tenant Shadduck, who is in charge of
the recruiting station at Occur
d'Alene. The other stations are located
at Pocatello and Caldwell.

The Southern Idaho railroad, once
considered dead and into the death of
which the public utilities made an in
vestigation, has been revived. State
officials are interested in the story of
the revival as appeared in the Gooding
Leader. 1t is as follows:
THE Idaho Southern railway Is not
so entirely and hopelessly dead as
was announced last week and it will
soon be possible for people to again
take passage over this road between
Gooding and Jerome. The resurrection
is brought about through the efforts of
Charlie Young, who for eight years
haidled the passenger trains over the
Idaho Southern without a single acct
dent to passenger or employe. Mr.
Young has leased the Idaho Southern
track until such time as the rails may
be torn up, which probably will be a
year or more. He has purchased a
high power Pope Hartford sight seeing
auto with capacity for 16 passengers,
which is now being fitted with flange
wheels at Portland. A trailer will also
be used for handling express and light
freight traffic. The old train schedule
will be followed, leaving Gooding at
$3.50 a. m. and returning at 1850 p. M
Special trips win be made afternoons
and evenings when there is a demand
for them.
The track is now being cleared and
put in shape and Mr.. Young expects
to start service as soon as his car ar
rives.
Mr.. Young states that a similar auto
rail service is maintained on the road
between Hood River and Mt Hood, q
distance of about 100 miles, and it is
entirely satisfactory"
