East Ely a Surprise J. H. Currie, of Curries station, prominent ranchman, business man and pioneer of the county, is In East Ely for a visit with M. I,. Collins, j Mr. Currie does not come often to the camp, not having been in before for several years, and therefore finds remarkable improvement about aim. East Ely was a great surprise to the visitor yesterday, with its splen did buildings, wide streets, railroad yard and shop activities. He said that while he knew quite a town had been built he was not prepared to i find the metropolitan look that things bear and the solid, unmistak- j able prosperity that goes with indus trial payrolls. He had rather looked for the spendthrift mining camp at mosphere, which happens to be notable by its absence. Mr. Currie will remain here sev eral days looking about before re turning home. He expects to visit the mines and reduction works and is prepared to find even greater sur prises than those which have so far greeted him.

The dispute at Jurbidge last week which led to tragedy had its In ception in what some urrivals from the camp are inclined to regard as a blunder on the part of forestry of ticals. A townslte was laid out In •larbidge upon ground which had been located as mining claims. No attempt was made to sell lots—the camp being within a forest reserve—I but persons were given the right to occupy the ground by taking mining leases made out in regular form. When the forest supervisor at Elko learned that a townslte had been laid out, he sent a ranger, C. L. Buckley, to the camp to investigate. After Buckley had reported his find ings to the Bupevisor, he was Instruc ted, so he alleged, to throw the town site open to squatters. This aroused the indignation of the townslte peo ple and of the persons who had paid j • (ilil AT XOISTIIKKX oim:xs • • Tlt.U'K AFTKIt WtlKrKS • • - • • SKAT I I,K, March 12.

The • • main line had been tied up for • • more than three weeks. • for leases on the ground. An indig nation meeting was held on Friday, when considerable feeling was ex hibited. There were several dis plays of firearms, but no open hostilities resulted at the time. Ilyrne and several of his friends were on the way to their tent that night when they discovered a squat ter’s wickiup on a lot claimed by Ilyrne, The wdckiup was thrown off the lot by Ilyrne. Occupants of a nearby tent, including Miller, saw the action and commanded Byrne to desist. Byrne fired two shots from a revolver— his friends say with the purpose only of frightening the Mil ler party then took refuge behind a large rock. Miller emtrged from his tent with a rifle, took aim at the rock, and when he saw' Byrne's head lifted above it, fired, the bullet penetrating Byrne’s forehead. Following the impromptu Inquest, the body of Byrne was taken to Twin Falls, where lives bis mother and sister. He was 31 years old and was popular with his acquaintance's.

Johnson, leaders of the Pennsylvania bar; and Moritz Rosen thal, the legal pillar of the Standard Oil Interests. Of these Johnson made the principal argument to the Su preme! court In the defense In the to bacco cases. The defense has urged that the corporations, which enterect into the organization of 1899, had not been competitlors since 1879; that the stockholders of the principal company were the Joint owners of the stock of the subsidiary companies and had the right to convert their stock in the latter to the former in trust for themselves, and Congress was with out power to restrict their acquisi tion, their method of holding or their dlsposlton of their title to their property or their use of It; that the corporations whose Btock were In vested in the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey are private corpora tions and not charged with a public duty as were the railroads In the Northern Securities case, and that if any restraint of trade resulted from the organization In 1899 It was neith er direct, Immediate nor substan tial. Attorney General Wlckcrsham probably will make the principal ar gument to the court in favor of tin* dissolution. Frank B. Kellogg, of Minnesota, and Charles B. Morrison, of Chicago, have been most active In the preparation of the case against the defendants. Their arguments were upheld In the main by the lower court. The business world is awaiting the outcome of the suit to know what ef fect It will have upon the future not only of me Standard Oil, but of oth er combinations with points In com mon. The Department of Justice is wailing for the decision of the court In order to shape the government at titude toward other organizations of which complaints have been made.
