IIII u s LOSE CLAIMS The Morgan-Guggenheim Syn dicate Denied Control of Alaskan Coal Lands DEPARTMENT ENDS CASES Famous Which lirouglit A limit the Halllngcr Investigation and tile Dismissal of Plncliot ami Glavls and Others From the Service, Finally Settled As Pint hot Claimed It Should He Secretary Fisher Says New Laws Are Needed. Washington, June 2fi Tlio Ciin ningham Alaskan coal land claims ..' were finally disallowed by the de partment of the Interior, These were the famous claims through which It was alleged the Morgan Guggenheim syndicate planned to-ex tend their vast Interests In Alaska and control valuable coal fields. The departments decision was handed down hy Commissioner of the hand Ofice Dennett, and approved by Secretary of the Interior Fisher. It Is believed no course remains for the Cunningham claimants save to yield. An appeal to the supreme court is mentioned, but it would be based only on some point of law involved and not on the findings of fact. The Cunningham claim, in the public eye constantly for two years, brought about the Ballinger-I'lnchot Investigation and the dismissal of Chief- Forester TMnchot, - libul- ft GlaviB, chief of the land office field division, and several other officials Pinvhot and GlaviB wore dismissed for insubordination incident to their attack on former Secretary Rallin ger, who, they claimed, favored the Cunningham claims. Secretary Fisher, Bellinger's successor, In an nouncing the decision today, said that new coal land laws arc needed in Alaska if it Is developed properly The secretary said the department would proceed immediately to the final determination of all the remain ing Alaskan coal claims. He hoped for modification by the next session of congress of the present laws appli cable to coal lands. Such modifications: ho considered would permit development, under provisions that would adequately protect and promote the public in terests. Mr. Dennett, in the 'decision that fraud was practiced, declares each of Si entries was improperly allowed because of fatal defects apparent on . its face.- He asserts the government established conclusively the charges brought against the claimants, and there Is no doubt the agreement ex isted among them in violation of law. The value of lands-embraced in the 33 claims runs high in the millions. A number of prominent men in the northwest are among the Cunningham, claimants. In 1902 they were enlisted In the enterprise by Clarence Cunningham, who made filings and conducted the negotia tions. Claims at once were clear listed for patent. Final action was held up at the request of Louis It. Glavis. FAMOUS CONTEMPT CASE COMES UP AGAIN Washington. Juno 26 justice Daniel T. Wright of the district supreme court Issued rule today against Samuel Gompera, Frank Morrison and John Mitchell, labor leaders, requiring them to show cause, July -seventeenth, why they should be adjudged guilty of- con tempt of court. This action followed the filing of the report of the special committee of attorneys appointed by Justice Wright to Inquire Into the matter of conempt proceedings In the Buck Stove and Hange Company boycott case. The contempt proceedings were re cently passed upon by the. supreme court which set aside the Jail sentences imposed by Justice Wright of the su preme court held that the contempt on which Wright passed was of a civil nature, against the 'Bucks Company. The supreme court, , dismissing- thje former proceedings, gave the district court the right to reopen the case In the event of any contempt of court to Itself or Its orders, was. found. The day following the supreme court's de cision, Wright Immediately ordered an investigation with a new further con tempt action against the labor man. He appointed a committee of three lawyers, J. J. Darlington, Daniel Dav enport and James M. Beck, to deter mine whether there was contempt of the court Itself. If it Is determined contempt was committed the court may impose a fine or jail sentences. The committee, reporting to the court, concludes with the suggestion: "(3mpers. Mitchell and Morrison mav be prepared to apologize to the court arid make promise of further submis sion, since the United States supreme court adversely to their contention that the Injunction against the publication of the stove company s on the unfair list 6r American federal Ion 1st violated the constitutional prerogative of the freedom of the press atwl speech: 'Should: such . acknowledgement: apology and submission not be forth coming after due .notice and oppor (unity the course necessary In he pur sued to maintain the dingily and du respect tor and obevancc to law Is re spectrally 'submitted' to the -court- for consideration.
