HOLIDAY FOR HERCULES.
Company Suspends Operations for IL
DAYS Christmas.

The Hercules mine and mill are
closed down for 10 days ostensibly to
give employees Christmas vacation,
but in reality probably for the pur-
pose of effecting a curtailment in the
production of lead at this critical
period in the lead market When the
suspension was announced employees
were informed that it would be for
ten days and possibly longer" which
is> construed to mean that the date of
resumption will depend upon the lead
situation. Similar action was taken
by the Tamarack & Custer company.
Both these companies are controlled
by the Days and the ores are handled
by the Northport smelter, also con-
trolled by the Days The action talk
en- by these companies fairly repre-
sents the difficulty confronting lead
producers in disposing of their pro-
duct. 1t is believed, however, that
both mines will resume at the end of
the To-day period.

HEcLA.
Company Takes Advantage of Holiday
to Do Necessary Work,

" ~ iNeScSodTy VoIk'
The Hecla mine and mill are closed
down this week to take the usual
Christmas holiday, and advantage
was taken of the occasion to prepare
the shaft for operating the cage from
the 1900 to the 1000 level, which ne
cessitated several days in addition to
the regular holiday Other better
ment work is also being done during
the period. 1t is expected that every
thing will be ready for resumption on
the 2Sth. The suspension will also
contribute to the curtailment of lead
production, which is now necessary on
account of the unsettled condition Of
the lead market. Meantime the Hecla
company is drifting on the 1000 level
to reach the ore shoot, running along
side the vein in order to be in solid
ground to avoid timbering. The vein
is assumed to be without ore for a
distance of about 1000 feet, as it was
in the corresponding level above.

MISREPRESENTATION.
Full Quota in the Mire-Millins 500
Tons Daily.

C. w. Newton, manager, reports a
full quota of men employed In the
handling 400 tons of ore daily. The
mine is in splendid shape for produce
ton, the development work during
the summer and fall adding many
thousands of tons of ore to the avail
able reserve. The company is not
borrowing trouble over the zinc mar
ket. The product is sold until well
along into the new year, and the
next few months may change slug
gish market into one of great activ-
ity. That there is going to be great
demand for zinc when the industrial
revival comes seems certain.

RUDDY WINS APPEAL
TOu.S. SUPREME COuA1
CANNOT TAKE HOMESTEAD TO
SATISFY DEBTS CONTRACTED
BEFORE PATENT.

The official IT, S. Bulletin, publish
ed at Washington, d. C., dated De
cember IL. contains the following con
densed paragraph under report of pro
ceedings of the United States supreme
court.
Charles f. Rudy. plaintiff in err
ror v. Herman ]. Rossi. In error to
the supreme court OF the state Of
Idaho. Judgment reversed with costs
and cause remanded for further pro
ceedings not inconsistent with the
opinion Of this court Opinion by
Mr.. Justice McReynolds Dissenting,
Mr.. Justice Holmes"
The Issue.
A copy of the decision of the su =
preme court referred to above has not
been received but from A. H. Feath
erstone, of this city, who is attorney
for Mr.. Rudy, 1t is learned that the
sole issue involved was the construction
OF Section 1895 of the revised statutes
of the United States relating to home
mo lands acquired under the pro-
visions of this chapter shall In any
event become liable to the satisfaction
OF any debt contracted prior to the
issuing of the patent therefor"
The decision therefore settles a mos,
interesting question which has been
the subject of conflicting court de-
cisions in many states.
Beginning Of Case.
Some six years or more ago Mr..
Rossi obtained a Judgment against Mr.
Ruddy on account of debts contracted
before the issuance of a patent for
the Ruddy homestead, and thereupon
levied upon the said homestead to
satisfy the judgment Ruddy brought
suit for an injunction to prevent the
sale of the homestead and obtain ed
Judgment in the district court Of
Shoshone county. Rossi then appeal
ed to the supreme court of the state
of Idaho and that court reversed the
district court. 1t was then up to
Rudy to make the next move and he
of error to the supreme court of the
United States, and on December 8
the decision was rendered reversing
the Idaho supreme court and remand
ing the case for further proceedings
In representing Mr., Rudy. Mr.. Feath-
erstone was associated with c. e.
Milled, now deceased Mr. Rossi was
represented by James A. Wayne and
Walter III. Hanson.
State Courts Disagreed.
In discussing the decision Mr..
FeatheTstone said that prior to this
decision by the United States supreme
court, the supreme courts of Arizona,
Arkansas, California, Minnesota,
Missouri, Nebraska Oregon, South
Dakota, Washington and Wisconsin
had held that the statute in issue and
above quoted meant what it said,
while the highest courts of Colorado,
and Oklahoma had held that
1t related back to the issuance of the |
receivers final receipt and not to the |
late of actual issuance of the patent
The case is quite familiar to local |
readers, as the litigants are both resi-
2ents of this city. The homestead in |
Is on the west side of
King street, upon which Mr. Ruddy
esides.
