as they expected and only those who
were able to swim until picked up

SEATTLE, Nov. 13—The hearing
of the government cases against the
coal claimants were started here to
day by officials of the land depart

Smokeless Anthracite, the Corbin
Mountain Anthracite and the McKen
zie Anthracite companies, who are
charged witli violation of the land
laws, to appear and show cause why
the claims located by them in the
Bering river distiict should not be
cancelled.
A long list of eminent attorneys
represent the claimants, who assert
that work was done o ntlie property
as required by a fair construction of
the law and that the contention of
the land department, that a mine must
be developed before the claimants
can secure patent, is not fair and will
retard the development of the terri
tory.
