JUDGE REID SAYS
HE GRINDS NO AXE
I
At 3 o'clock this afternoon
Judge Jieid appointed O. G- Lab
eree and John A. Goodwin as
receivers for the Alaska Central.
Opposition was made to Laheree
by John E, Ballaine who filed
an affidavit attacking the per
sonal integrity of Mr. Laberee.
Frank Graves»attorney bringing
the foreclosure suit, defended
Mr. Laberee, and Judge Jieid or
dered the affidavit stricken from
the files, saying that the pre
ponderance of evidence is in Mr.
Laberee's favor. The court then
continued until the final adjust
ment of the railroad affairs the
action brought by the railroad to
have the Ballaine receivership
vacated.
"This court has no axes to grind,
no one to harm or favor and tho soon
the people of this tertitory realize
this fact tho better it will be for the
people and tho court."
In the foregoing language Judge
Silas H. Reid, speaking from the
bonchtbis morning, coneludeda short
dissertation upon conditions existent
in tho Third district. The remarks
eamo in connection with the contro
versy concerning the personnel of
the rocoivers for the Alaska Central.
Tho court in granting tho application
for foreclosure and tho appointment
of a receiver under this application,
had named O. G. Laberee and John
A. Goodwin as joint receivers and
the appointment of Laberee was op
posed by E. E. Ritchie, acting in bo
half of John E. Ballaine.
jucige Keid announced that he will
consider any objection founded upon
legal grounds but that ho does not in
tend to bo governed by objections of
a nature personal to the objectors. In
this connection he said that in Alaska
and in other newly settled countries as
well, it is all too common for persons to
make assertions that "this man or
that is a grafter." "These persons,"
said tlio court, "seem to forget that
a man regards his reputation as any
thing, and so far as this court is con
cerned, I purpose that such insinua
tions shall cease."
With the exception of the decision
in regard to the appointment of Mr.
Laboree, the affairs of the Alaska
Central were, for the present, dis
posed of this morning. The question
of fixing the party litigant responsi
ble for the costs of the receiver ap
pointed upon the application of Mr.
Iiallaine will not be made until a final
settlement of the affairs of the road.
James A. Haight, acting for the rail
road company wanted the question
determined forthwith and argued that
the application made by Mr. Ballaino
was uncalled for. Later Mr. Haight
agreed to a postponement of this
phase of the case, as did the other
parties interested.
The court, however, announced
that while he will reserve final de
cision until ovidence has been taken,
he is inclined to the belief that the
allegations sot forth in the complaint
in the foreclosure proceedings are so
nearly identical with those set forth
by Mr. Ballalne as to establish the
proprioty of tho receivership appoint
ed under tho Ballaine application.
CLEVELAND LETTER
PROVES A FRAUO
Dayton, O., Oct. 23—Broughton
Brandenburg, a newspaper and mag
azlno writor, was arrested here this
morning and charged with forgery in
connection with scandal growing out
of tho publication of tho letter pur
porting to havo boon written by for
mer President Cleveland predicting
tho election of Taft. Tho arrest was
made at the request of tho manage
mont of tho New York Timos.
Tho publication In the New York
Times of the alleged Cleveland lotter
was tho cause of much rejoicing In
tho republican party. Tho lotter pur
ported to havo beon written somo
tlmo prior to tho death of Mr. Cleve
land and itdisoussod at some length
tho political conditions as they thon
existed, and forecasted tho result of
the eleotion to bo held next month,
oxprosslng tho opinion that Taft was
sure of success. This was beforo Taft
had been given tho nomination, and
slnoe the publication of tho letter tho
republicans havo beon making capital
out of tho fact that the orstwhllo
democratic leader favorod Taft »s
against Bryan.
Hhortly after tho publication of the
letter, it was declared a forgery. In
vestigation has established tho fact
that Mr. Cleveland never wrote, or
causod to bo written, such a docu
ment. Tho Times pnrohased the let
ter from Brandenburg, and the paper
has boon obliged to make publlo re
pudiation of tho authenticity of tho
doeument.
TAFT ADDRESSES
LABORING GLASS
Parkersburg, W. V., Oct. 22—Pres
idential Candidate Taft last night ad
dressed a large assemblage of labor
ing men in this city. Mr. Taft de
clared that it is his decisions in ro
gard to railroad cases that were
taken for precedent by the unions in
the celebrated caso involving the tin
plate workers. The outcome of this
caso is regarded as a victory for
organized labor and the assertions of
Mr. Taft met with enthusiastic re
ception on the part of the labor
element in the audience.
Referring to Mr. Br^an, Mr. Taft
said that some men are good for pur
poses of talking and making criti
cism, while others are good for the
purpose of doing things.
JAPS DESIROUS OF
TRIPLE ALLIANCE
Tokyo, Oct. 23—Japanese states
men are advocating that this govern
ment take action having as the pur
pose the formation of an alliance be
tween the United States, England and
Japan. While the project has boon
under discussion for some time, the
discussion has been carried on in the
secrecy of diplomatic circles, and has
only just becomo public knowledge.
The loading papers editorially sup
port the movement, and the public
gorferally looks upon it with favor, i
The only opposition is found in cir
cles dominated by the student class
and by those who in the United
States would be classed as "jingoes."
WAR CLOUD AGAIN
THREATENS EUROPE
London, Oct. '23—For ten days there
has in the vicinity of Bosnia, Aus
tria, been progressing? warfare that
bids fair to set at naught all hopes
that the threatened hostilities endan
gering the peace of all Europe had
been averted. Starting as a small
insurrection the trouble in Austria
has grown to such proportion that to
day 120,000 Austrian troops are de
fending themselves against the at
tacks of the insurrectionists. The
extent of the losses is unknown here.
Several things combined to assist
the efforts toward peace made a week
ago by the powers, alarmed at the
attitude of Turkey, Austria, Servia
and Bulgaria. Sorvia was practically
without amunition, and was other
wise lacking in the necessities conse
quent upon tho declaration of war,
and the peoplo finally roalizlng this,
ceased thoir demands upon King
Peter. The powers also succeeded in
bringing about an adjustment of tho
difficulties between Turkey and Bul
garia.
Austria has tried to koop .from oth
er nations the fact that the trouble in
which she 1h now involved is of such
magnitude as to cause fear, but the
conditions have become such that
secrocy lias boon found to bo impos
sible. The news of the success that
is rewarding the efforts of the insur
rectionists has caused a goneral fool
ing of alarm, and it is feared that the
conditions of two woeks ago will
shortly be resumed.
(J. L. Hoyt, who with A. C. Smith
has since Foburary, 1905, boon pro
proior of the Oulkana Trading Com
pany and roadhouso, has bought out
Smith's intorost, and from now on
will run the place alone. Mr. Iloyt
has been In Alaska for many years,
and is widely known to travelers and
miners alike. For tho past fow days
Mr. Hoyt has boon In Valdez.
Homo member of tho grand jury
yesterday took upon himself author
ity to summon boforo that body sev
eral persons believed to posess
knowledge of law breaking. This
causod to circulate the rumor that
the grand jury had been "ap
proached," and tho partlo* to the
little affair woro cited to appear bo
foro the court. Judge Rold, after
hoaring the cltcumstances related,
decided that nothing worso than a

CREDITORS WANT
ALASKA CENTRAL
The first real move to alter the
present status of the Alaska Central
Railro.nl, now in the hands of a re
ceiver appointed at the request of
John E. Rallaine, acting for the stock
holders, was made this morning be
fore Judge Iteid when suit was tiled
to foreclose the mortgage now due by
reason of non-payment of interest on
bonds. The action was tiled by James
M. Lathrop, with Frank H. (Jraves of
Spokane of counsel.
In connection with the suit for fore
closure the plaintiffs make an appli
cation for the vacation of the present
receivership and the appointment of
a receiver under the foreclosure pro
ceedings. The choice of the plaintiffs
is O. G. Laberee. a mining promoter
of Spokane, but Mr. Laberee is not
acceptable to the parties represented
by Mr. Ballainc. This phase of the
case will be argued before Judge
Reid, tomorrow morning.
The suit in foreclosure is tiled in be
half of the Trust & Guarantee Com
pany, Limited, of Canada, which rep
resents a largo block of bonds. The
Sovereign Bank of Canada at ono
time held the bonds on which the in
terest has defaulted, but these securi
ties have since become distributed
among several banks in Canada, the
most important being the Hank of
Montreal.
Attorney E. E. Ritchie, acting in
behalf of Mr. Ballaino, yosterday af
ternoon wont into court with a mo
tion for a continuance of the hearing
upon the motion filed by James A.
Haight, acting for the Alaska Cen
tral, to vacate the present receiver
ship. This motion was filed some
time ago, the real parties behind it
being A. C. Frost, president of the
Alaska Central, H. O. Osborno and
the Tanana Railroad Construction
Company, the latter party being a
subsidiary corporation organized by
Frost and others to do tho construc
tion work on tho Alaska Central.
Mr. Haight and Fred M. Brown op
posed tho motion for a continuance,
and thin morning .fudge Roid denied
the motion. However, the action in
foreclosure nullifies tho effect of this
decision, and now practicnlly the
only questions at issue are the person
ality of the receiver to bo appointed
under tho foreclosure proceedings,
and the party to the action that will
by order of tho court bo hold respon
sible for the expense entailed by the
appointment of tho present receiver.
Delay on tho part of Attorney It.
J. Boryor in filing answer to the suit
Instituted by E. R. Gray against Dell

answer until aftor the statutory tlmo
