SUIT FOR THREE MILLIONS Local Stockholders in Utah-Nevada Com pany Hare Eich Eopei. CATCH DE LA MAR AFTER SIX YEARS Expect to Make II I m Dlagorae goose of the Proflts to Wklc They Claim to Be Ra tified. Local stockholders in the rtah-Nevada company, a mining organization Incorpor ated in Council Bluffs in March, 1894, have received word from San Francisco which leads them to believe that they will now realize a good return from their invest ments. Six years ago the company brought suit against. Captain Joseph Raphael da la Mar, a millionaire mine owner, but service on the captain was not effected until a few days ago. For six years the attorneys for the com pany tried lii vain to effect service on Cap tain de la Mar, but without success until a few days ago, when it was learned that he was In Los Angeles. The suit Involves $3,500,000 and It Is said will prove more famous than the celebrated Doyle-Burns mining suit from Colorado. Isaac E. Blake, who made a fortune in the early days of oil In Pennsylvania and then lost It in enterprises out west, is the principal stockholder In the Utah-Nevada company. The richest properties of the company were located by him while build ing a railroad to connect the Southern Pa cific with Ploche, Nevada. Two of these claims, the Monitor and Jim Crow, were sold to Captain de la Mar and under the terms of the sale the company claims It was to receive 49 per cent of the output. It Is said that since Captain de la Mar se cured posesslon of these two claims he has taken out more than $7,000,000 worth of ore. The Incorporators of the Utah-Nevada company are all residents of this city: George F. Wright. George 8. Wright. E. W. Hart, A. W. Rlekman, John N. Baldwin and Robert E. O'Hanley. The capital stock was first placed at 15.000,000, but waa subse quently increased to $$,000,000. Captain de la Mar is ssid to be a multi millionaire and of recent years has spent much of his time In Paris, France, and this, with the fact that his Journeys through this country were so rapid, his mining and other Interests being widely scattered, made It a difficult matter to get service of notice of suit on him, aa by the time the papers would be drawn up In one stats he was In another.

Forsyth and Robert Burt, Jr., of this city, are plaintiffs in a suit brought in the district court Saturday against J. I Sanderson of Trempleau, Wis., for $4,000 damages for alleged failure on the part ot the defendant to properly fulflll the terms of a contract respecting the feed and care of registered cattle sold by blm to the plaintiffs. Two thousand dollars In the First National bank, said to belong to Sanderson, was attached yesterday after noon by the plaintiffs. H. I. Forsyth Is local manager of the Union Transfer company, and Robert Burt is connected with a live stock paper In South Omaha. According to the papers filed In the case they contracted on January 9, last, to purchase from Sanderson forty two head of registered red-polled Angus cattle. The price to be paid by them for the cattle was $4,400. Of this amount $800 was paid the day the contract was signed and $2,000 on March 24. Under the terms of the contract Sander son was to retain possession ot the cattle and to "feed, fatten and properly attend in a manner such as usually don with such cattle prior to their entry In a public auc tion" until April of this year. Ths con tract further provided that Forsyth and Burt were to pay $3,600 on or before April 15, or If the cattle were sold at nubile auction the payment was then to be mads the day following the ssle. The plaintiffs assert that In the regis tered stock ' business and preparation of registered cattle for sale at auction there Is a well understood and established man ner and usage of feeding, fattening and at tending cattle which require that the cat tle be put upon full feed and kept well housed and barned and haltered In a stall for a period of from three to sis months. This, they allege, the defendant failed to do and allowed the cattle to become thin and poor and that on April 1 they were. owing to the neglect of the defendant. only worth $3,000, whereas had he com piled with the terms ot the contract the cattle would bare been worth $7,000.

INDIAN CAMP IS WELL FUMIGATED Every Redskin Is Given a Bath at the State's Expense Offi cial Register Is Ready. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, April . (Special.) The most important work done in the legisla ture Saturday was the adoption by the house of the bill to reorganize the Iowa supreme court and raise salaries. The bill as orig inally lutroduced was In substance that which was approved by the State Bar asso ciation and generally desired by the law yers of the state. It provided for three general ttrms of the court, but practically continuous sessions, and a general change In the method ot making the assignments and hearing cases so that the decisions will follow submission much closer than at pres ent. It also fixed salaries at $6,000 a year Instead of $4,000. The house cut the bill to pieces and eliminated all but the salary feature and fixed it at $5,000. The senate took up the house bill and substituted it for the one the house had passed and today the house accepted the original bill as it came over from the senate in the form of a substitute. An effort was made to reduce the salary to 15,000 a year, and on this motion Speaker Eaton, for the first time during the ses sion, came ?own to the floor and delivered a stirring speech in opposition to such a change and in general defense of the orig inal bill. A resolution was adopted for a committee to view a portrait ot the late Senator Har lan with a view to purchasing It tor the state.

The house amendments to the State uni versity and State college ssillage tax prop ositions v ere concurred tnr. - These amend ments take off the limit that., was at first fixed by the senate, providing that not over $110,000 should go each year to each one of the Institutions. The normal school tax proposition was carried. This disposes en tlrely of the mlllage tax propositions and gives these institutions a good fund for building purposes.

The bill to increase the salary of the as sistant attorney general from $1,200 ts 11,500 a year was passed.

The enrolling clerk has discovered that a bill to require firs escapes on all build ings had passed both houses without any enacting clause and the senate passed the bill again. The senate refused to concur in amend ments to the bill for deputy county at torneys and appointed a conference com mittee. The appropriations committees did good work this evening and disposed ot most of the small bills. The house committee recommended an emergency bill which would pay $15,000 for a laundry building at Mount Pleasaut, to replace the one burned last week. The senate committee Indefinitely post poned the bill for $100,000 for a historical building and $60,000 for a state arsenal bill, a bill for a monument to Iowa soldiers at Andersonville, for a statue to General H err on in Des Moines, for the purchase of paintings of great Iowa men, and to pay widows and orphans of miners at Lost Creek. Bills were recommended for passage to give $15,000 for game wardens, pay for Inspecting county Insane hospitals, to pay for expenses of conferences of the heads of state Institutions, raising Its per capita at the state reform school, to pay ex penses of state architect, and for a stats bacteriological laboratory. The committee recommended that In the Bruce-Emmert contest case no allowance be made for the expenses of attorneys. Cleans It the Indtaa Camp. Dr. A. M.
