KNIK TERM OF
COURT ADJOURNS.
The Knik term of court adjourns
Thursday, July 22nd, and the floating
I court goes thence to Illiamna, and
| overland to Naknek.
At Knik Indian Jim was charged
by the grand jury with murder in the
! first degree; a trial jury found Indian
I Jim guilty of manslaughter. E. E.
j Ritchie and J. P. Murphy appeared
for the defendant. District Attorney
Spence and Judge Munley for the
government.
E. C. Williston was charged with
robbery but was acquitted by trial
I jury. He was defended by L. V. Ray.
The case of the government against
! T. H. Jeter was tried at Knik and
later at Anchorage. No decision has
yet been announced. Mr. Jeter
claims as his homestead the land now
occupied by the tent city of Anchor
age, and the government claims his
right thereto is subordinate to the
! right of the government to use the
| publtT domain for railroad purposes
j under the Alaska railway bill. Mr.
' Jeter claimed Mr. Mears, of the com
| mission, in the year 1014 asked per
mission to go on his homestead claim,
but this year no pel-mission had been
asked and that the government had
taken over everything except the
small cabin in which he lived. Mr.
Jeter tried to get some settlement on
the matter but the oflicials could not
agree as to what was a fair settle
! merit and finally insisted on pushing
; the matter through.
