the marshal has been put to consider
able expense, because he has been on
the search for him for thres years.
THE CoURT-Have you any idea
what the expense has been?
| Mr.. PETERs-No, it is pretty hard tc
arrive at that; when searching for Mr.
Lyman he was searching for others as
we'll.
MR. MoYLE-There was no Special
fort made to obtain Mr.. Lyman, that
| am aware of. They merely had the
warrant ready to serve upon him If the
ran scr Oss him. But as to making any
! efforts. do not think such is the case
nor was any expense particularly in
| CURED in obtaining him. The warrant
was merely on hand.
Mr. PETERs-Speaking for the present
marshal, know there was al effort t
arrest the defendant. and il was con-
tlpued, and has teen for two Years Ol
more. L thiak the same effort wa 8
made by his predecessor, Mr.. Ireland
| Mr., MoYLE-I understand the mar
shall has no5 been 10 Mr.. Lyman's resi-
dence at all, and he had no notice OF
the fact that he was wanted. 1 think
therefore, this ought to be looked into
| The COURT That is q matter for you
to present if yor choose to.
Mr.. MoYLE-I state that the marshal
has never been to Mr.. Lyman's house
or where he was likely to bsfound.
Mr.. PETERS Probably he was never
at his honse, because he could not find
| him there.
Mr.. MoYLE The statement make is
that Mr.. Lyman knew nothing about
this until about the time he delivered
himself up, and that he has been away
on legitimate business.
THE CoURT-Let him be arraigned.
Apostle Lyman at once came for
ward.
The CoURT-You have pleaded guilty
to an Indictment found against you by
the grand jury for the otfense of unlaw-
full cohabiiation. What have you to
say why the sentence of the Court
should not be imposed upon you?
APOSTLE LYMAN - Nothing, your
honor. in addition to what has been
said already.
THE COURT your case, as in the
cases of other men who stand where
you now stand, axe into my consid-
GRAFTON the fact that you have spared
the court and the government the ex
pense.of trial, that you have surrendered
yourself, and thereby admitted the SUI
prenacy of he law, which you are to
bow to as we'll as other men.

man he would certainly have arrested
him. That is all.
The CeURT-Mr. Marshal, are there
any records to show that any special
expense has been incurred by your pre-
decessor in Office with regard to the in
dictment and soaght-for arrest of
Francis M. Lyman?

except the bench warrant. The govern
ment has paid nothing, nor have any
special efforts been made that | am

The UOURT-It was suggested that
some little amount has been spent.
Mr.. PETERs-What efforts have you
made, then, to obtain his arrest since
