Railroad Case
Nearly Finished
LAWYERS ARGUING CASE TO
Jury Visited Right-Of-Way Thursday.
Given Case Tomorrow

The condemnation cases of the
Tyson Greek Railway company
against the Empire Mill company
and William Connolly, which have
taken up the attention of the dis
trict court for the past two
weeks, are about completed. A
decision condemning the land for
a right of way having previously
been made, the question of the
amount of damages which the de-
PENDANTS should receive for the
taking of the land was the only
matter under consideration at
this time.
The defendants are asking for
over one hundred thousand dol
lars damages, based mainly on the
fact that they claim the land bears
placer gold in paying quantities
and the further fact that the rail
road interiors with their placer
mine on the land adjoining the
right of way. The railroad COM
pany denies that the land has
value for gold mining and further
claims that if il has this should
not be taken into consideration
IS it was not being worked at the
ime the condemnation proceed
ngs were started and that all the
work done since that shows the
presence of gold was in the nature
f improvements and could not
De considered in fixing damages.
The attorneys for the railroad
company objected strongly to any
,vidence in regard to the gold be-
ng admitted but were overruled
by the court. The defendants
ook over a week to put in their
violence. The plaintiffs to con-
tradict this evidence, put engi-
neers on the stand, who pros
ected the land years ago and
anne to the conclusion that al -
hough there might be gold there
il was not in paying quantities.
About a day was taken by the
| defendants in rebuttal to this tes-
| timOny and both sides rested
Wednesday evening. On Thurs
lay the jury was taken to view
the land in question and this
lorning the attorneys began theiI
arguments before the jury. 1t is
hOught that these will take more
han a day and that the case vii
rot be given to the jury befor,
