As Judge Thorncll did not reach the city until nearly noon, no morning- session of tho trial of the Doyle-Burns suit was held yesterday. When court convened In the afternoon the cross-examination of Burns was resumed by Mr. Hughes. The cross examination yesterday was directed mainly by Mr. Haghes to an effort to show that Burns took charge of practically all of the transactions In connection with the sale of the various mines to the Portland company, and, although Harnan, Doyle and Peck were present at the meetings, none of them took an active part In the negotia tions and discussions, or asserted any In terest, they allowing Burns to take full control and consummate the entire deal. In connection with this line of cross examination the witness was questioned at length regarding the sale of the Black Diamond, Tidal Wave and Devil's Own claims to the Portland company with a view to ascertaining what proporvl.n of the shares of stock received by him for the two claims were allotted respectively to the Devil's Own and the Tidal Wavb Burns had testified that out of the stock received by him for these two claims he had given Peck and Doyle each $2S,0U0, Mr. Hughes, however, attempted to show through the witness that It was Stratton who gave Teck and Doyle each $J8,000 out of what he received for the Black Diamond. This the witness positively denied. It Is expected that the cross-examination of Burns will be completed today. The defense has one or more witnesses to put on the stand, as well as to read the tes timony glveft at the former trial by Burns' slaters and then there will be aome short rebuttal by the plaintiff. It la thought that all of the evidence will be In by Thurs day. The farmer members of the . Jury are worrying over being unable to get home and attend to their work, so yesterday counsel for Doyle proposed that aa soon as the evldenoe Is all In the Jury be excused for a few days and In the meantime both eidts ,ulwru4iic on all law wlius. anaclal Interrogatories, Instructions to the Jury, etc, 'and that arguments be commenced next Monday morning. Judge Thornell expressed himself as agree-able to this arrangement, provided both sides were willing. Counsel for Burns are agreeable provided Mr. Thomas can secure the postponement of a case In New York Involving several million. In Which he la one of the counsel, and th trial of which has been set for April 11. If Mr. Thomas can arrange thla the Jury will be given a few days' recess. TALK OF CnnrROIIE AT MIVIW4 Commercial ( Jah Tries Its Hand at etllnc I lllaatlon. The efforts of the executive committee of the Com.nerclal club to procure an ami cable settlement of the controversy between the motor company and certain owners of property at Manawa over the proposed va cation of pevernl streets and alleys which cut through the company' resort at the lake, may be productive of results. Yesterday the members of the committee and a number of the members of the club, together with representatives of the motor company and the attorneys for the Inter ested property owners, visited the srene and looked over the ground. As a result of the Investigation the committee came to the conclusion that neither side would be Injured much by making some con cess'ons. The committee suggested that !n order to bring the controversy' to a close the prop erly owners submit two propositions to the motor company, one to be an offer to sell out their property Interests and the sec ond or alternative proportion to be In the form of an agreement permitting the motor company to close the streets In question for a cash consideration. These proposals are to be filed with the executive committee of the Commercial club, which In turn will submit them to the motor company. They are to be In the hands of the committee by Friday morning. E. J. Day, one of the parties Interested, recited what he termed the interference of the executive committee of the Commer cial club in the matter. He aacused the at torneys for the motor company of being responsible for It, but this was stoutly de nied by the attorneys, one of whom hap pens to be a member of the executive com mittee. Judge Smith Mcpherson had announced he would be here Friday to hear matters In connection with the controversy, but he will now be requested to postpone the hearing.

The Board of Health won yesterday the first round In the Injunction suit brought by the Ronrd of Education to restrain It from enforcing Its order Telatlve to vac cination of teachers and pupils of the pub lic schools.

Judge Oreen, at the request of counsel for the Board of Health, will hand down a formal opinion overruling the demurrer this morning, so that It ran e taken down by the court reporter and made of record.

Compl.rlnt was made to the police yes terday that a number of boys were In the habit of Jumping on Burlington trains at the local depot and riding as far as the transfer. The officials of the road also complained that a gang of boys Jumped on a train last Saturday and rode as far as Pacific Junction before they were dls covered and put off. One of the boys is said to have hurled a brick at the con ductor and struck him on the leg. The police investigated, with the result that Informations In the Juvenile division of the district court will be filed today against Thomas Rowbotham, Fred Potter, Frank white and "Easy" Harvey.

Thomas Bowman and Spencer Smith, ap pointed to check up the office of County Treasurer Conslgney at the latter's re quest, filed their report. The report showed that the accxur.ta had all been found perfectly correct with the exception of a few of the computations of the dif ferent levies from which the distribution of taxes to the state, county and town ship funds Is made. These slight error, while not affecting the totals, have been corrected In the February summary. Dr. R. II.
