DISOBEY ORDERS
FINED $250.00
Skagway Wharf Co. Refuses to
Produce Books on Order of
Judge Lyons
Three hundred dollars worth
of legal argument—it was really
worth every cent of that—went to
waste in the United Stales dis
trict court recenly when Judge
Lyons refused to wip.> out the fine
which he had imposed last spring
for the failure of the North Pa
cific Wharves and Trading com
pany to produce its hooks of rec
ord, which lliat company alleged
it had carelessly lefl lying
around in some law ofVice down
on the sound, and which it pro
fessed itself unable to find.
One of the reasons alleged for
I lie vacation of the order assess
ing I he line was thai they still did
not have the hooks. The court
granted them another •)<> days and
told them to go right on looking,
hut insisted that, the $250 would
have to come, not so much, per
il a p7*, because our l.'nrle Samuel
needs the money, hut probably
because the court fell it inij-'hl
encourage litem In limit harder
for the valuable docum.cnIs so
carelessly mislaid.
As I lie court holds its sessions
ill a considerable distance from
the company's exchequer, how
ever, he gave I hem ten days in
which to ^e| the money t«> I he
court Imuse.
