San FrancUco, Auk 31- Convicted of
bribery of Supervisor' Lonergan, yLoula
Glaaa, rice-president and general man
. user of the Pacific Telephone ft Tele
graph company, will be sentenced by
Judge Lawlor next Wednesday. The
jury deliberated but 16 minutes on the
evidence In the case last night before
returning a verdict of guilty against
Glass.
Glass was accused and convicted of
bribing supervisors of the city of San
Francisco to vote against the franchise
applied for by the Home Telephone com
pany. The refusal of Vice-President
Zlmmer to testify in the first trial re
sulted in a disagreement of the Jury.
Zlmmer again refused to testify In the
second trial, but the Jury believed Glass
to be guilty and returned a verdict
against him.
Francis J. Heney, assistant district
attorney, made the closing argument
for the prosecution and dwelt upon the
evil deeds of corporations for an hour
and a half He condemned the cor
porate interests far their modern meth
ods of business and declared that they
were underlining the government.
T. C. Coogan for the defense spoke
for two hours, holding that there was
utter lack of evidence to show the guilt
of Glass.

Baker City, Or.. Aug. II. Ths title
of ths property of the Eagle Mountain
Mining company Is in litigation. A suit
has been filed In ths circuit court In
which Charles Haas Is plaintiff and C.
G Coxy W. Henry Harris and ths Eagle
Mountain Copper Mining company are
defendants.
Haas alleges as follows: On October
4, 1904. John Soheck, for $160, made a
deed to the plaintiff conveying a on
fourth undivided Interest to the quarts
mining claim. Red Bell No. I, situated
In what Is known as the Goose Creek
district, about 30 miles east of Baker
City. The deed was duly recorded and
the plaintiff claims he has been the
owner of said Interest ever alnce and
has performed the necessary work on
the claim.
On October 29, 1905, the same John
Scheck executed a quitclaim deed In
favor of C. C. Cox to an undivided half
Interest In the Red Bell No. i. In re
turn Cox wss to furnish Scheck with
the necessary sunDlles and tools for per
forming the annual development work,
but failed to keep his part of the agree
ment, thus invalidating the doed.
cheek Sells Yet Again.
On December 6, 190B, Scheck deeded
to Jefff. Packwood snd Edith W. Hydo
his right and title to the Red Bell No. 3.
along with other mining claims. At the
time of this transfer Packwood and
Hyde had full knowledge that the plain
tiff was an Owner of an undivided one
fourth Interest In the claim. Packwood
and Hyde were to secure from Cox a
reconveyance of the property and t.ien
rind a suitaoie purchaser, tne proceeds
to be divided equally between Packwood,
Hyde and Scheck. The plaintiff alleges
that Packwood and Hyde made misrep
resentations to Scheck for the purpose
of defrauding him and the plaintiff out
of the property in question. The prop
erty was conveyed to C. C Cox. who
sold It to W. Henry Harris for $160,000.
'and Harris in turn sold It to the Eagle
Mountain Copper Mining company, of
which he is president.
The property In question la one of tne
richest copper properties in eastern Ore
gon and Is being widely exploited In the
east by the Eagle Mountain Copper Min
ing company. Harris Is a wealthy busi
ness man of Indianapolis, and there -Is
no questrOA-ttf the mine being a rich
one.
The placing of the property In litiga
tion was a great surprise to the neoole
of this city, as every one thought the
company's title was perfect, or it would
not have paid such a price for the mine.
Hart & Nichols are attorneys for the
piaintui.

Tacoma, Wash., Aug. 31. Internal
Revenue Collector B. V. Crocker has
collected data convicting the people of
Washington of being the most lavish
whisky drinkers and tobacco users of
tho Pacific coast The internal revenue
collections for this state for the fiscal
year ending June SO amounted to f 1,046,
238.29, the sum representing the gov
ernment tax on whisky and tobacco.
"These fla-ures." said he today, "are
enormous as compared with the Internal
revenue collections of some of the other
states. For instance, our collections on
whisky and tobacco were more than the
collections on these articles in Colorado
Wyoming,- Kansas, Indian territory and
Oklahoma combined. With the possible
exceptions of California and Nevada,
which, being wine producers, are in a
class by themselves, our collections are
far more than any other state in the
west."

the collections in the western states
