Stockton Citizen Arrested on an In
dictment From Fresno.
STOCKTON, Feb. 10.-E. P. Daniels of
this city was arrested to-day on an indict-
ment returned by the Fresno Grand Jury
for criminal conspiracy. He Immediately
gave bail for 81 300 and was released from
custody. 1t is said that one Joseph
Hutchings of Stanislaus County is also
charged with the same otfense. The
charge Of conspiracy made against the
two men is the indirect result of Il civil
suit brought here a few months ago, in
which Miss Daniels, daughter of Il. p.
Daniels, got a verdict for SO, GOO damages
against Nj. j. Church, wealthy land and
dltch-owner Of Fresno County. She sued
for slander, charging the aged defendant
with having uttered false and slanderous
words about her to Joseph Hutchings,
who was then manager of Church's Lane
Springs property, in Stanislaus County.
Mr.. Daniels was at one time in the en-
ploy of Church at Fresno, and was a
local preacher there. He said to-day that
son of Church came here recently and
offered 81 900 to compromise the case, but
Miss Daniels refused to accept. Daniels
claims the present charge is brought in
revenge for this refusal.
