DECISION RENDERED IN
FAMOUS KETCHIKAN CASE.
KETCHIKAN.—Judge Jennings
rendered his decision in the case of
New England Fish company against
I.. D. Ryus of Ketchikan, finding for
the plaintitFs, who claimed tide lands
on which Ryus was building a dock,
by virtue of the possession of the up
lands.
The case has been engaging the at
tention of the court for the past cou
ple of years. The New England Hsh
company has a large cold storage
plant at Ketchikan and claims the tide
land between their land and the dock
of the Standard Oil company by virtue
of a mineral location on the uplands.
The field division of the land office
rendered a decision some time ago in
which they held that the land in ques
tion was not mineral in character, and
Ryus and associates started to build
a dock on the tide lands in front of
the land at that time.
CORNER’S JURY
RETURNS VERDICT.
Jl'NKAU—The corner’s jury sit
ting in the case of George Vaughn,
after deliberating most of the day
yesterday, late in the afternoon re
turned a verdict of “Died from in
juries received from knife or other
sharp instrument in the hands of
person or persons unknown.
The testimony failed to show am
motive for the crime, if one were com*
mitted, or other evidences of a mur
der. Vaughn was seen to pass by the
Salmon creek power house at about
noon on Saturday in a very intoxicat-1
e<i condition and was seen going to
wards the barn in which the remains
were found.
One knife covered with blood w as
found in his pocket, and another w ith |
[ stains on it was found. The only oth
er thing contained in the pockets of
the dead man was a ring with three
keys.
SEATTLE BANKERS
REPLY TO CHARGE.
SEATTLE,—W. H. Parsons, E. L.
Webster and John Schram, former
stockholders of the Washingtor.-Alns
ka bank (of Washington), declare
that there is no basis, equity or just »•
in the suit which Receiver Noyes
| plans to bring against them. They
say that the directors of the bam;
feel that the affairs of the institution
are open to the inspection of the re
! ceiver or anyone else who cares to in-1
vest! gate.
SEW \KI> WINS AN
EXCITING STRUGGLE.
After the first half of the seventh j
and last inning last evening the score j
stood 4 to 3 in favor of the Federate j
; but with hardly a man out in the
1 second half and with bases full Slug
ger Reed came to bat for the home
team and sent out a fly that let home
two Hoben Hopes, and won the game. |
For the first time during the game it
looked bad for the visitors in that last
half. Carrington lost his debonnair
air and peeled the sweater. Grady
was no longer planning tricks to catch
the batter. Even Campbell looked
worried. l'ut Reed camp up. Gar-,
rington had been wrapping the ball
around his neck all evening to save it
from the briny but this time he failed
anil the batter sent him away out for
two. Nickerson pitched a good con- j
sistent game and aided the home team
in fine shape. After the game Harry
Hoben said ”1 told you so. We have
the be.-t team if they can only be got .
to work.”
