Guilty Yet Acquitted In Gumplalit County Case
A jury in Sudke Cooper's court yesterday found John Prideaux guilty in a liquor license case but acquitted him. Prideaux, a cripple, argued the county should permit selling liquor without a license.

Suit for Big Commission In Mining Sale Case
John Kerrigan and Johan O Mewrs sue Peter Mevermott and Annie MeVermott in district court to claim a share of a 6 percent commission on the sale of Bure and Belaklava mining claims to the Butte and Malaklava Mining commits. They say they worked with McDermott in arranging the sale for 125000 total, that the property sold for 100000 and 86000 has been paid, with McDermott receiving 10000 of 125000 but failing to account. They offered 12000 in settlement which was refused. They allege McDermott has put his property in his wife’s name to shield the plaintiffs, making her a defendant.
