| GOLD MINE DEAL IN COURT
Judgs Tbornoll Patiently Listens to the
Contention of Lawyers ,
COMPLETION OF THE HEARING IS REACHED
Intimation tlint Doyle l-'rntKluluiitly
bvourotl a ilmlKiiioiit AKiiliiNt
Ilurim niul that It Mhuiild
IJe Set Anlilc.
For over ten hours yesterday Judge
Thornell In the district court sat patiently
listening to the arguments of counsel upon
thu motion , to set aside the judgment tnkrn
by James A. Doyle iln his now famous suit
against John F. Burns , president of the
Portland Gold Mining company of Colorado.
In order to complete the hearing yesterday
Judge Thoruell held a special session last
night , at which John N. Baldwin , counsel
for Doyle , made his dosing reply to Mr.
Patterson's concluding argument In support
of the motion.
When court convened yesterday morning
Mr. Ualdwln resumed his argument and
spoke for six hours with an adjournment
of an hour for dinner. Mr. Patterson then
followed with his closing argument and
spoke until court adjourned at 6 o'clock.
Mr. Baldwin Informed the court that he
would llko to make a reply to Mr. Patterson
and Judge Thornell agreed to hold a special
ne. Mlon In the evening
Mr. Baldwin's argument was the conten
tion that Burns was served with personal
notice of the .action here ; that ho appeared
nnd filed a motion to quash service of this
notice. Burns contended that this notice
constituted simply a special appearance.
That question was thoroughly argued to
Judge Smith , who overruled Burns' motion
and held that It was not a special , but a gen
eral appearance It therefore- became neces
sary for Hums to plead. However , before he
did anything further In the courts here ho
went to Colorado and secured an Injunction
against Doyle there , restraining him from
continuing his case In the Iowa courts ; that
In this proceeding in Colorado ho took the
action already had In the court here to base
his application for nn Injunction tjieie : that
the proceeding In Colorado was illegal and
unlawful ; that Burns used the knowledge
ho had of the pendancj of the action here In
the proceeding , there ; that Doyle upon
proper advice refused to comply with the
Colorado order and took his judgment ; that
Burns was now In this court asking to set
aside this Judgment , but In order to do this
two things must be shown first , that Hums
had a defense , and second , a reasonable ex
cuse for not answering and preventing judg
ment here. Burns , he contended , had abso
lutely failed to show any reason or excuse
such as contemplated by the statute , vl/ .
accident , mistake , death , surprise or lack
of knowledge. None of these existed. He
further contended that Burns had defied the
processes of the Iowa court and had , and Is ,
using the processes of the court of Colorado
for oppressing Doyle ; that the Iowa court ,
having jurisdiction of the parties and the
subject matter and having acquired that
Jurisdiction first , the law and the constitu
tion of the United States required the courts
of Colorado to recognize the proceeding
here , and on the reason of comity between
th two states should have refused to Inter
fere.
fere.Mr.
Mr. Baldwin In concluding his argument
further insisted that Burns had a proceed
ing In this court and a pi acceding In Colorado
rado , but that he had confidence In neither
and was experimenting with both ; that he
was afraid of his position In each and de
sired to hold on to both , that he took the
record of this court to Colorado and uked
It to get an Injunction there and having se
cured that Injunction upon this record lie
lined It to oppress Doyle and Incarcerate
him. Then finding that Dojle would not
yield to the oppression , after seven months
of experimenting In Colorado , Burns brought
the very same transcript from the Colorado
court down here , filed It In this court nnd
asked that upon that very same record , and
with which he Is keeping Doyle in Jail , this
court for mercy and lenlenc ) and begged tills
court upon that same record in the exercise
of its discretion to permit him to plead here.
Mr. Patterson In his closing argument con
tended that Doyle had secured his judgment
by fraudulent and perjured testimony and
that If he had a right cause of action against
Burns ho would not ho afraid to bring his
suit In the courts of Colorado , but this coun
sel Insisted ho did not dare do. Ho said he
could easily understand that Doyle was will
ing to defy the courts of his state If ho
could have close upon $1,000,000 to heal his
wounds with. The judgment should , hu in
sisted , bo sot aslilo In the Interest of law
and justice.

moved from St. Bernard's , but will be trans
ferred from the -ward where the county
charges ore kept to the insane department.
The Information charging Montgomery
with being insane was filed by Deputy City
Marshal Stockdalo. Friday afternoon Mont
gomery left the hospital without leave and
inado a social call at a tailor shop on Broad
way , where he pocketed a large dirk knife.
Fearing that the old man Intended to do
himself some Injury , the police wcro neil
lied. In the meantime Montgomery re
turned to the hospital and when Officer
Stockdalc arrived there ho denied having the
knife. It was found , however , concealed In
the drawer of a commode. Montgomery ,
despite his extreme age , gave the officer
quite , a tujslo before ho was able to get
lKs&cflon of the knlfo. As a county charge
Montgomery's care at the hospital cost the

A big sensation Is about to be sprung In
church circles here and one of the oldest
pastors in the mate is to be asked for his
resignation. Dr. A. L. Frlsblo has been
pastor of the I'lj mouth Congregational
church for over thirty years , and Is one or
the most generally esteemed of citizens.
Powerful members of the church took a dis
like to the reverend gentleman , however ,
probably because he Is a little old-fashioned ,
and on Thursday night they had Dr. D. F.
Fox , a Congregational pastor from Chicago ,
hero for a lecture. It was scheduled as a
lecture , but It now seems that it was simply
an opportunity for eomo of the more prom
inent members of the church to see whether
or not they wanted Mr. Fox In place of
Frlsble. Mr. Fox made a good Impression
and It was stated by one of the deacons In
the church that the change would probably
bo made very eoon.

The citizens of DCS Moines met on Mon
day to organize the company which Is to
erect the auditorium demanded by the rc-
publlr-an state central committee. The last
republican state convention passed a reso
lution to the effect that this > ear's state
convention would be held In DCS Moines pro
vided this city would build a large audi
torium. It now has a larger hall than any
city in the state , but the politicians wanted
something better. As a result 120,000 has
been raised and work will commence very
soon on a largo building or convention hall
that will seat from 4,000 to 5,000.
Judge S. F. I'routy of the equity division
of the district court today rendered a most
Impoitant decision respecting the rights of
homesteaders formerly holding property out-
Hide the elty limits , but which was taken
Into the city by the act of 1S90. Increasing
ttio boundaries of the city. It Is estimated
that the decision will affect several hundred
property owners in DCS Moines. The case
was entitled J. II. and Lena Sageis against
C. A. Chllders. A demurrer of the defendant
to the petition of the ulalntlff was overruled
by the court. The plaintiffs giantor , Mrs.
Littleton , owned six acres of land outhule
of the city of DCS Moines prior to 1800 which
was occupied by her as a homestead. Hy
the act of 1890. Increasing the boundaries
of the cltv of DPS Molnw. this homestead
was Included within the corporate limits of
the cltj of DCS Moines While the piopor y
was In the country and occupied as a home
stead , the plaintiff's grantor was entitled 'o
the whole six acres as a homestead. When
It became a part of the coriwrate town tiho
would be entitled to only one-half acre. Ln-
dcr the code of 1873 this hind , although it
became a part of the city , -would not bo re
duced to the one-half aero as a homestead
if It was platted. Hy the new- code of ISD7
this rule was changed , providing In t > un-
Htanco that the homestead should
ho reduced to one-half aero If
within the corporate limits of
a city or town. Numerous persons had ob
tained judgments against plaintiff's grantor
since 1S90 and prior to 1807 and the question
was whether their judgments were a lien
upon the fho and n half acres other than
the homestead within the corporate limits.
The court held , first , that the law of JSflO ,
which extended the boumlarien uf I'no city
of DCS Molnch would not change- the home
stead rights of this six acres , that law be
ing ono of special legislation and therctoro
unconstitutional as affecting the rights of
thw homesteaders. The court further held
that under section IS of the cede of 1897 ,
repealing the cede of 1S73 , all rights that
had then accrued were reserved and as far .
as property was vested AN 1th a homestead ' i
right nt the time of the adoption of the
cede of 1S97. this tight was still reserved
under the now code.

In the Hughes murder trial was practically

Monday to give the attorneys an oppor

defense would bo offered. Four experts In
symptoms of disease have testified that the
symptoms present at the death of Ed

has been a llttlo divergence between them
as to the number of symptoms necessary
on which to base a positive opinion. One

Iheld for a previous hlslory of the ca e.

The htalo haa negitlvely proven that
Hughes did not die of heart disease and did
