and the present suit were based on the
fact that four of the county commits
sioners were stockholders in the Mary
land Publishing Co. up to July is, last,
and that the Maryland Code prohibits
any county commissioner from contract
ing with a firm in which he Is finan-
cially interested. The section covering
the matter makes any violation an in
dictable offense and renders the Offend
ing commissioner liable TO removal
from Office.
Peter Denies Injunction.
Judge Robert B. Peter signed an order
denying the injunction Monday after
he had been informed that the commits
sioners had cancelled their stock In the
them who had been directors had re-
signed their directorships. The formal
answer also embodied the statement
that the publishing firm had cancelled
all debts owed it by the county.
The proceedings for an accounting
and recovery name DR.. Benjamin G.
Perry, Lacy Shaw, Clagett c. Hilton and
Robert L. Hickerson as the former
stockholders in the Maryland Publish
ing Co. and the first three as directors.
Recovery, however also Is sought against
the fifth commissioner, Downey M.
williams.
It Is urged that the interest of the
commissioners in the Maryland Pub
fishing Co. renders all contracts with 1t
illegal and consequently void.
Accuse Officials Of Failing to Act.
The bill sets out that Mr.. Mobley's
attorneys, Vivian Simpson and Harold
G. Smith, made demands on States At
torney Robert B. Peter, jr, and Capt.
Joseph C. Cissel, attorney for the coun-
ty commissioners, to recover the money
for the county, but that both ofncials
refused to act.
Fraud and violation Of trust Is al
legged in what is set out as refusal by
the county commissioners to permit
county advertising in O certain news
paper on the grounds that the news
paper in question opposed the commits
sioners politically.

GEOLOGY OF THE EAGLE
CIRCLE DISTRICT, ALASKA


 e Interior Department an nounces the issue of a report on the geology of the Eagle-Circle district, Alaska, by J. B. Mertie, jr. This re- port, published as Geological Survey Bulletin S16, may be obtained from the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Wash ington, D. C., for 50 cents. It con- tains reconnaissance map showing the geology of the part of the dis trict south of the Yukon river.
 The Eagle-Circle district com prises an area of about 10000 square miles in east-central Alaska, of which the southwestern three fifths is described. Geographically, this area is the connecting link be- tween the Fortymile mining district to the southeast, and the Circle min ing district to the northwest.
 This region has interested pros pectors and geologists for many years. Lying between two important centers of mining, it has naturally been scanned attentively by prospec- tors and miners since the early nine ties. No large lodes or placers have yet been discovered in the Eagle Circle district, but several smaller placer deposits have been mined for years, and in the aggregate consid- erable gold has been recovered. The genesis of these deposits is discussed in some detail in this bulletin, and consideration is also given to the larger problem of discovering new deposits in this and neighboring areas. In addition to metalliferOus deposits, another interesting miner al deposit of possible value in the future, is oil shale, which is found along the Yukon river near Nation.
 To the geologist this district is of more than passing interest be- cause of the completeness of it's geo. logic section. Sedimentary rocks of every period except the Jurassic are found here, as well as an extensive pre-Cambrian sequence; and igneous rocks Of several ages have also been recognized. This, moreover, is the only area in Alaska where Cambr1an rocks have yet been definitely iden- tified. The northeastern two-fifths of the district, as yet undescriDed except along the Yukon river, is par ticularly interesting geologically because geologic terranes which south of the Yukon are greatly met amorphosed occur here in a little altered condition. The present re- port is one Of the reconnaissance type and treats these geologic fea- lures in a generaIized manner, re- cording all available structural and stratigraphic data but delegating to the future numerous unsoIVed prob lems.
