SANTA FE FAILED ID DEED LANDS, |S CLAIM IN SUIT IN J. $. COURT

Claiming that the Santa Fe Pacific railroad has failed to complete the exc cution of an agreement and deed in respect to land within the primary and indemnity limits of the railroad con veyed. to him and his brother, Robert Perrin, Edward B. Perrin, a prominent resident of Williams, yesterday filed action against the railroad company in the office of the clerk of the United States district court. The suit was brought by William R. Harr of Wash ington, D. C., and Robert E. Morrison of Prescott.
 The plaintiff. asks the court to de- clare a trust has developed on the de- fendant to carry outAthe terms of an agreement made in 1896. He asks that the arilroad be required to take steps to have the lands within the primary limit surveyed by the United States and that the defendant be required to obtain patents for the lands from the government for the benefit of the plain tiff as fast as surveyed. Perrin also asks that the defendant corporation meet all the costs and make and exc cute deeds and conveyances to him, and that patents be obtained for un- selected and indemnity lands.
 That the defendant be adjudged and decreed to hold any right or title it may possess to the lands in trust for the benefit of the plaintiff. and that the defendant be enjoined and re- strained from alternating and other wise disposing of the land is included in the prayer of the plaintiff.
 According to the complaint. Perrin and his brother, now deceased. en- tered into a contract with the Atlantic and Pacific railroad for the convey ance for considerations paid and to be paid for tracts of public lands in Ari- zona- The contract was drawn up years ago and the railroad is alleged to have neglected to carry out its terms and was unable to complete title to some lands purchased, and in 1896 the Perrins brought suit against the company. c. w. Smith, the receiver of the western division of the railroad, came west to settle the controversy, drawing up an agreement and deed of conveyance, for the purpose of releas- ing lands conveyed to the plaintiff and his brother by mortgages, conveying in all 39.667 acres in Yavapai county.
 The terms of this agreement have not been carried out, according to Perrin, who alleges that the Santa Fe, the successor of the Atlantic and Pacific, refuses to take steps toward that end.

 second place from the Overland, which about that time seemed to be having some slight engine trouble. Two laps 1 later, the Essex again lapped the Overland, which stopped a few mo- ments at the pit after being Tapped by the Dodge.
 Both the Hudson and Mercer were forced to drop out between the 10th and 50th laps, and the Essex crossed the finish line an easy winner. Gold trap rolled in second in his Dodge, while the Overland, undisputed third, quit at the 18th lap, sure of it's place.
 The prosram also included a two mile race between Glen Thomas AIer- cer car and Lieut.. Howard Patterson's s airplane, which proved a pretty sight. the plane losing ground on the turns and gaining it on. the straightaways- Changes Plane in Aair Just before the main race began, ''Daredevil' Campbell. in a plane pilot ed by Patterson, went through his aerial acrobatic performance, which in- cluded such feats as hanging by his knees from the landing gear. standing erect on the top~of' the upper plane, hanging by one knee from the plane, and hanging by a foot and hand from the wing-tip.
 For sheer sensationtlism Campbell's changing planes act was easily the best of the day, probably half of the spec tators expecting an accident. The feat drew attention entirely away from the 50-mile motor race then in progress.
 Sttnding erect on the upper left wing of one airplane, the daring air man waited while the second plane maneuvered into position from above. At last this position was attained, the wings of the two planes overlapping only five feet or so apart, tnd Camp bell swung easily off onto the lower wing of the upper ship The plane quickly separated from their perilously close position to each other. and later did few stunts in conclusion.
 Although from the ground it ap- peared to be easy, the entire audience realized that a single false move by either Clark Patterson, the pilots of the two machines, or Camp bell himself would mean a crash, prob ably for all. with 50-50 chance of death of one or more. Consequently as Campbell with apparent ease swung from the top wing of one plane to the bottom wing of the other a general sigh of relief went up.
 After the conclusion of the program a number of the persons present re- mained on the grounds, there to take aerial trips aloft in the two airplanes-

Camden Makes Claim.

Camden, N. J.. Nov. S.-Camden county -police will claim jurlsdict1on in the case of the murder of David 5. Paul, the Camden bank runner, who according to the police, was killed by Frank J. James and Raymond w. Schuck of this city. Both James and Echuck, it was announced by the po- lice authorities, have confessed sneir implication in the killing of Paul. They are in jail at Me2nt Holly, Burlington county, in which Jurisdiction the body of Paul was found. According to the alleged confessions given out by the police the bank runner was killed in Camden county, and it is expected the accused men will be brought here shortly to stand trial
 -.--- Accuse Each I0ther.
 ,- In the alleged confessions, James and SchuIck accuse each other of killing Paul. The murder was committed in daylight in a motor car in Arch street, this city, after Paul who was on his xay to ,a Philadelphia bank H4sh se5,- 900 in cash and cheeks. had been in vited to ride to the. ferry in James autom obile. He was struck on the head and rendered unconscious. and when he later regained eonscioasness he w.s. sieait a death blow. The body, accordinx to the alleged confessions. Mas hidden in creek in the Jersey pines in Darlington county, and nine days later the two men returned and dug a grave and buried it..
 Sch9ck. the police say, told where the authorities. stated that he and James hsrrEied their work and did not dig the grave deep enough. leaving a mound where the body was covered. It was this mound that a party of farmers out hunting ,saw, and thinking someone had buried a deer, dug it open and revealed the murder.
 Schuck, the police say, told where the money was buried, and most of the xe5.000 was found hidden in Ever green cemetery here.
 The alleged confessions of the two men differ in that Schuck denied there had been any premeditation on his part. He said he was driving along the street with Paul beside him when James dragged the bank messenger into the seat and started beating him.
 James is 37 years old and is a mo- tor car salesman He is married and has a son. Schuck is g and also mar ried. He is the son of a Camden newspaper man who is held in high respect by the citizens of this city.
