PENNILESS PROSPECTOR IN IT
Supreme Court Will Settle the Long
Drawn Out Battle—Titles Descend
j^x-om a Halfbreed Indian Squaw—
Steel Company Beady to Pay a Vast
Sum for the Fabulously Bich Deposit
(By Associated Press.)
New York, June 7.—Eight million
dollars in cash and possibly a much
larger sum in profits, which are now
only prospective, hang upon the United
States supreme court's decision of the
title to a tract of land known as "sec
tion 30" in the famous Vermilion range
in Northern Minnesota.
This suit, after long litigation, has
now been brought to a final issue before,
the tribunal of last resort. Argument
has 'been ordered for October. The case
Involves a tract which is generally be
lieved to contain the richest deposit of
Bessemer iron ore in the world. It is
so valuable that the United States Steel
Corporation, it is said, stands ready to
pay $8,000,000 fs>r the rights which will
be awarded to the victor In the long
sttuggle fqr ownership.
Of all who have hoped to draw riches
from the mine -eince Its discovery, only
two Interests have survived the winnow
ing process of the law. One of the con
testants is the discoverer, a man wVfe
is practically without a dollar In the
world. The other is A. N. Miller, who
built the Savoy Hotel in this city and
who held a controlling interest in it un
til he sold it to Judge Dugro of the New
York supreme court.
Frank Eaton, a wandering prospector,
in 1884 located the section under scrip
by the government to Orlllie Stram, a
halfbreed Sioux Indian woman. She
subsequently gave a deed of the section
to Eaton. The supreme court of Min
nesota has twice upheld his claim.

VAN WITH A HAIR LIP HOT
JUDGED BY HIS
LOOKS.
A hair-lipped man with his mane, 17
strips in all, standing straight up. ap
peared before Judge Boyle this morning
to enter a plea on a vagrancy charge.
The peculiar looking personage guve
his name aa W. Jasper McCormack, and
Informed the court in delicately toned
words that his occupation was that of
harness making.
Mr. McCormack agreed with Clerk
Winn, that his appearance was against
him. but didn't think a court of justice
should judge a man by his looks. With
this bold assertion the leather trimmer
flashed one eye to the north and the
other directly acrosg that line of vision
to the south. Judge Boyle, after study
ing his man for a moment, decided that
either he was near-sighted or McCor
mack was cross-eyed. He concluded that
it would be hard to judge the man by
his looks and gave him 15 days in the
county Jail.
W. J, Weatherhead had no excuse to
offer for Indulging too freely in Are
water, and simply thanked the court
when he was requested to pay $5 into
the city treasury.
Rowe, the same old Richard, pleaded
guilty to a disturbance charge and re
luctantly followed the example of J. H.
Sullivan, who paid $10 for making too
much noise.
Judge Boyle set the hearing of Nellie
Buckley, charged with living in the
bad lands, for Friday at 3 o'clock.

EVIDENCE A GAINST FRED STEIN
Alleged Forged Wells Fargo Express
Checks Now in the Hands of
Chief Reynolds.
The Wells Fargo Express company de
livered to Chief of Police Reynolds, to
day, the two time checks that were
cashed in this city by Fred Stein, the
alleged forger, now held awaiting de
velopments in his case. One draft was
cashed by Stein at Siegel's store and
the other at a down-town hotel. They
were for $30 each.
The checks were sent by the banks In
Butte, to which they were turned in by
the people who cashed them, to the head
office of the Express company in Chi
cago. There the checks were marked
"void" and taken up. The head office
of the Express company returned the
checks to their office in Butte and had
them turned over to the chief of police.
A glance at the checks would, at once,
show that they were not genuine. The
writing was clumsy and the endorse
ment of Stein on the back resembled,
very much, the writing of the body of
the checks.
