MAY NEVER REACH TRIAL.

Wyoming Cattlemcn Will Try Novel
Scheme to Avoid Punishment.
CHEYENNE, Wyo., May 15.-Facts re-
Gently brought out indicate that the
prisoners of war may never have trial.
This can be the result without resort to
trlckery or evasion of the law. The plan
is 10 have the men return to johnson
county for arraignment. They will
plead not guilty to the information
charging them with the murder of
Champion. The prosecution cannot ask
for a change Of venue and the defense
viii not. In jury getting the prisoners
are entitled to twelve peremptory chal-
lenges each or 5e6 in ALL Many tales
men will, of course, be rejected for
cause. None Of the 800 men who fought
the invaders at the T. A. ranch are
eligible as jurors in the case. At the
last general election johnson county
cast few more than 800 votes, and has
less now. Of the total about $50 ballots
were by women, who are rarely called
as jurors. These figures leave the Grim
illals without their dozen challenges.
The law agrees that all would then be
discharged. They say this thing has
happened in Pennsylvania, Kansas and
California. The invaders Will demand a
trial all together.

HALIFAX, May 15.-A vessel Of 55e
tons burden together with the captain,
first mate, steward, carpenter and two

her way from Fonsberg, Norway, in bal
last to Ship Harbor, N. S. The vessel
struck a sand bar Thursday morning and
stuck fast As she did not take any
water the captain and some others de-
cided to remain on board until she could
be f1oated. The second mate, boat
swain and four seanen loft the boat
Thursday and were taken aboard an
American schooner. Friday morning no

conference. A resolution declaring that
the army and navy should be instructed
IN religion and asking congress to pro-
vide for more chaplains was introduced
The fight over the episcopacy, began
by contest between DR.. Buckley and
DR.. Neely as to which should get the
floor. DR.. Buckley wanted to present
the report of the committee on episco-
pacy, while Dr.. Nicely wanted the report
held off until Tuesday. DR.. Buckley
won his point and was greeted by ap-
plause. The two first parts Of the re-
port were adopted without division. It
was the third part of the report, which
recommended that no more bishops be
elected at present, that caused all the
debate. DR.. Buckley made full state
ment of the work of the committee. and
the vote was then taken up. The report
was adopted almost unanimously. Those
who advocated the election of more bish-
ops seemed to realize that they were
overwhelmingly defeated and there was
no use to resist. The adoption Of the
resolution was then received with ap-
