SCOTTISH COMPANY
LOSES ITS CLAIMS
GLASGOW 4 WESTERN GETS AID
VERSE VERDICT IN SUIT
FOR PLACERS

The Glasgow & Western Mining
company, which at one time owned
a vast acreage of mineralized ground
i'll the vicinity of Battle Mountain,
has experienced another defeat at
the hands of the United States
court through a decision that was
handed down this morning by l..
trict, who had been called into the
case by Judge Harrington.
Three years ago prospectors in
Copper Canyon. Lander county,
found a rich placer deposit which
they began to work after relocat-
ing. The ground originally belong
Ell to the Glasgow & Western Min
ing company, a foreign corporation,
which is supposed to have slept so
long on it's rights that all title to
the claims had lapsed.
When it was learned that the
placers were very rich, suit was
brought against Davis and others
to dispossess them. The case was
heard by Judge harrington. who
gave a decision alloting each side
a $3.50 share in the property. This
decision did not suit either side
and by unanimous consent was set
aside. A fresh suit was instituted
III the name of Cole ct al. versus
Ralph ct al, the latter representing
the previous plaintiffs. 1t was
agreed to submit the issue to a jury
which rendered a verdict in favor
of Cole ct al. This was on June J,
1915.
The defendant ~thereupOn moved
for a new trial before Judge Far
rington and the motion was taken
under advisement, until August,
1915, the Nevada court called in
Judge Dietrich, of Idaho, to hear
the motion. The motion was ar
gued and submitted. The issues
we're of a most complex order and
it was only today that the Idaho
justice reached a conclusion, which
wa to the effect hat the motion for
a Jew trial was denied.
William Forman and George b.
Thatcher appeared for the plaintiff
and P. G. Ellis of Salt Lake repre-
sented the defendants, while George
Springmeyer acted as associate
counsel.-BonanZa.

NEVADA CONSOLIDATED
PAYS BIG BULLION TAX

A statement has been received by
Assessor Clark from the Nevada
Consolidated for the quarter ending
September 80, giving the net amount
of bullion tax at $28,690.03. For
the previous quarter the total
amount was something more than
$4,000. The difference between
the two statements is due to the
reduction in the county rate as made
by the board of county commissions
ers. Forty-six per cent OF the total
amount will go to the state and
fifty-four pei cent to the county.

for the last quarter has not yet

The death of Francis Joseph is
IL remarkable climax to the long
list OF tragedies in the Hapsburg
family-a list unparalleled in any
other reigning house in Europe.
He dies in the midst of the worlds
greatest war. which he himself
largely brought about ~ his deter
mination to avenge the act of as
s~assination of his heir, the Arch
duke Francis Ferdinand, as the
result of an alleged Serbian con-
spiracy, while on a state visit 20
Bosnia on June %, 1914.
Francis Joseph was sc a old
at the time of his death. He was
born August 10, 1880. He was
only Is years of age when he as
cended the throne of Austria, upon
the abdication of his uncle, Ferdin-
and L., Dec. 2, 1S4S, making his
active reign extend over a period
of 6S years, all but the first 20
OF which he was also Apostolic King
Of Hungary. 1t is doubtful hat If
in all history there has been an
active, authenticated reign that was
longer.
Tradition says a Pharaoh rule
for 80 years and there is the more
credible instance of Rameses II
Seostris of the Greeks, whose reign
is reputed to have covered 81 years.
But in recorded history there GER
tainly has been no reign of equal
duration to that of Francis Joseph.
Louis XIV, of France, was month";
ally king for 70 years. He actually
occupied the throne for little more
than half a century. A closer rival,
and the ony n of modern times,
was Queen Victoria, who reigned
for GA years.
The aged monarch, although he
had suffered serious inroads upon
his health for many years past, was
strong enough to keep a firm grill
on affairs of state almost to the
last. There were repeated reports
serious illness from bronchial
affection, and frequently rumors OF
his death, which proved unfounded.
Some of the reports asserted that
his mind had become affected
through worry over the great var
hut the truth of these rumor was
rot admitted.
In November, 1915, on the occa-
sion of a visit of Emperor William
of Germany to Vienna, it vas ru-
mored that Francis Joseph was
about TO make a possible move for
a separate peace, but owing to the
strict censorship in Austria there
was no confirmation of such a re
pert.
The ultimatum of July %, 1914,
which Francis Joseph SEN to King
Peter of Serbia, denouncing the
anti-Austrian propaganda in that
country and demanding prompt pun-
ishment of the the assassins of Arch
duke Ferdinand, was supposedly die
tated by Francis Joseph himself and
Il was this document that directly
precipitated the war now ravagins
Europe.

man Jim Flynn in the second round
at Milwaukee last night places him
up among the good men of his diVi-
sion, and will help him a lot if he de-
cides to again invade New York in
search of battles.
1t also goes far to make up for the
poor showing he made against Perky
Flynn in New Orleans. The Pueblo
Flynn, while only a trial horse, is a
tough man, and has given the lead
ing fellows among the heavies lots to
think about.
FuIton's quick victory came as a
surprise. He cut loose against Flynn
with both hands as soon as the sec
Ond opened, and a left hook and
right cross landed in quick success
sion, ending Flynn. He was down for
good, and remained on the floor four
or five minutes after his seconds had
doused him with water.
In the first round Fulton had also
fought well, leaving red welts on the
fireman where the gloves landed. In
all respects Fulton was a much i'm
proved man over his last fight in this
region.
Further tinkering with his infieId
material, Manager Rowland has tenn
porariIy shifted Buck Weaver to
third base and is giving Zeb Terry a
trial at the shortstopping job. The
scheme was tried in a practice game
and worked exceIently on defense.
There is no doubt that Terry is big
league caliber in the fielding depart
ment, fully as capable as Weaver
when it comes to guarding the ter
ritoFy between second and third

binatiOn through the practice games.
When the squads are split Buck will
go with the first team as regular
shortstop and McMuIlen will play
third. This defense will be thorough
ly tested.
Rowland only knows that he must
have more strength at third base
than the SOX have had in that posi-
ton for a couple Of seasons t-he is
to make the team a pepnant con-
tender. He will try all sorts of shifts
to attain that end, and switches be-
tween the first and second teams are
apt to be frequent.
Jack Fourier is slated for a berth
on the first team at first base, with
Ness holding down the same job with
the seconds. This is also a tempo
raFy arrangement and depends on
the showing of the two men in the
games with the Texas league clubs.
Cub veterans, who have been at
tempting too much in their early
days of practice, are stiff and sore,
and Manager Tinker will go easy for
a few days to let the men recover
from their strenuous endeavors.
Archer, Schultz, DooIan, Safer and
MuIligan are all on the sick list.
Schultz has broken a blister on his
heel and the hurt promises to develop
into something serious if not attend
ed to. It was blistered heel that
put Larry ChappeH on the blink with
the White SOX couple of seasons
ago.
MuIIigan smashed his foot and will
have to wear a slipper for few days,
thus removing the only promising re-
cruit in the camp.
