GIRLS' MONEY HIS AND HIS IS THEIRS Admissibility of Ev ce Is Disputed and Court Suddenly Adjourns Until Monday~looking Up Colorade Law. James Doyle, plaintiff in the Doyle- Burns mining sult, went on the witness #tand Saturday shortly befors noon, when Judge Macy adjourned court umtil Monday afternoon. The carly adjournment was due to a dis- pute as to the admissibility of evidence which counsel for the plaintift desired to introduce and to which the defense ob- jected. The evidence in question related to Doyle's connection and transactions with Burns prior to the entering Into of the partuership agreement, upon which Doyle relles as the basis of his suit. The court held that matters prior to the agree- | ment were immaterial, but the attorneys for the plaintiff desired to submit the rul- ings of the Colorado courts on this ques- tion and inasmuch as the agreement was entered into In that state Judge Macy granted them permission, and this point will be argued on the convening of coure | Monday afternoon. Doyle's testimony yesterday morning was devoted principally to his relations with the Burns family. He told of the ace quaintanceship that existed between him Portland, Me., and how, after going to Colorado Springs, he was practically one of the Burns household. IHe told how he ran messages for Burns' sisters, who were dressmakers, and how he acted as delivery boy for them. What's His is Theirs Telling of his intimate relations with the family he id: “The girla’ money was mine and my money was theirs, and it was the same with their brother, Jim: ' He told how he had placed the utmost confi- dence in Burns and had looked up to him not oaly as he would toward an older brother, but also as to a father. When counsel for the plaintiff sought to securo testimony from Doyle as to the share he had contributed of the preliminary expenses of the prospecting trip, Burns' attorneys objected and were sustained by the court. It was at this point that Judge Macy ad- Journed court until Monday afternoon. John Kilday in Doyle's Behalf. John Kilday, a veteran miner from Crip- plo Creek, gave testimony on behalf of Doyle in the morning. He said that In 1893 he went to Burns with a proposition for a lease and bond on the Boptail No, 2 claim and that Burns demanded $20,000, payable In eighteen months, and a royalty of 20 per cont on all the ore taken for the lease.

A, Committee in Conference ~Supreme Court Opinions=Dates For Republican Speakera— Grain Dealers Go Home, (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Oct. 6.4(Special.)—Ac- cording to the decision of Judge Holmes of the district court today, cities have the right to cut noxlous weeds on any citizen's property and tax the cost against biwm, providing he refuses to cut them hiwself The decisfon sustains the validity of the weed ordinances of Des Moines and other cities and the statutes of the state. The court holds that where weeds are noxlous and pronounced a nulsance the city has the right to cut them. In the case in ques tion the contract was held to be invalld because it did not confine to noxious weeds. ‘Two years ago the city of Des Molnes let a contract to James Fahey and Ed Davenport to cut weeds, the ordinance pro- viding that the cost should be taxed against abutting property or in cases where weeds grew on vacant lots the cost should be taxed against ghe property Suit for injunction was brought by James T. Liddle and others to restrain the city from making assessments on the ground that the contract was {llegal, mainly be cause the city has exceeded iis authority n levying such assesements. The peti- tioners will now come into court indi- vidually and attempt to show that ' the weeds on each particular lot were not noxlous and nuisances and thus try to fore- stall the assessing of cost, The contractors, I'ahey and Davenport after making some headway at weed cut- ting, run short of money and assigned the | contract to others, who advanced money and were in a measure the defendants with the city in the suit. The weed cutters worked {in all parts of the residence sec- tlons of the city. They used A mowing machine, drawn by two horses, and cleared many acres of meadow land in the far distant suburbs, to the disgust of the ows- era of those so-called farm lands Contractors when asked to desist replled that their contract called for weed cutting and did not restrict the workmen to tho use of scythes or sickles or to the cutting of any particular kind of weeds. The Board of Publie Works tried to dictate where weeds were to be cut, but somehow the foremen on the work neglected to obey orders and whole flelds of fine grass, pro- nounced first-class pasturage, and in some cases tracts without grass, or weeds more than half a foot high, were mowed by ma- chine and proper record made, 5o that the | cost could be assessed. The city councilmen became Invoived in a row with the Board of Public Works and each other regarding authority in the matter and at least 1,000 protests were filed with City Clerk Bennett. Statements were made that fine lawns were lnocluded in the lists, when In fact they were kept beautified by gardeners. In other cases women declared they had spent years in making their yards pretty and the weed cutters simply mowed down flowers and shrubs without giving them a chance to apply to the board or council for relief. The contractors, Fahey & Davenport, were paid about $8,000 out of the deal, and the Stoners, who had ad- vanced the money, cleared about $1,000, besides interest, from the original con- tractors, Mark Hanne's Hrother Here The unprecedented activity In electric | raflroad building in central Towa this year | is expected to reach its helght Monday when a syndicate of Cleveland capitalists will go before the city council and ask that the question of granting a franchise for the construction of an electric line from Des Moines to Newton, and ultimately to Mar- shalltown, sball be submitted to popular vote. James H. Hanna of Cleveland, sald to be a brother of Senator Marcus A. Hanoa, Is expected to arrive tonight to represent the syndicate at the council meeting Mon- day morning. The route to Newton has al- ready been surveyed, a franchise and tax | have been voted at some of the intermedi- ate polots and options on portions of the right of way have been obtained. The com- pany proposes to do both passenger and freight business. The passenger terminal will be in West Des Moines, the line enter- ing from the cast over the Grand avenue bridge. The freight trafc will be diverted at the east corporation line and will enter over the tracks of the Des Moines union. Among the other electric lines either in process of comstruction or being actively promoted at present are the Des Moines & Eldora system, with Charles City or Water- 100, and possibly Dubuque, as the ultimate terminus; the Des Moines & Winterset line, with Creston as the ultimate terminus: the Des Moines & Eldora line and a belt freight line connecting the coal and brick plants north and east of Des Moines with the prin- cipal rallroads. Of these, the Des Moines & Eldora line and the Indianola lines are now being bullt. ‘The state committee of the Young Women's Christian assoclation is holding a conference fn this city and will continue its seseions | until Monday. The committee is here for the purpose of extending the local work beyond that of the educational branches in which it is now working.
