NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS
Surprises in the Report Made by the Grand
Jury Yesterday.
CHIEF NICHOLSON ct AL NOT INDICTED
There Was Not Sufficient Evidence Pre-
scented to Hold the Alleged Firebugs
Lucky Zen w~ebber-Those Who
Were Held for Trial.

The grand Jury made it's first and last re-
port yesterday and handed in three lndict-
ments. None of them contain the names OF
Ben Weber, Miles Schofeld, Charles Mich
olson, James O'Brien or =. KIrkendall, for
these men were all discharged upon an ex-
animation of the case as it was presented to
the jury. Webber was tho only one of the
accused whose testimony was taken, and he
will probably be one Of the most surprised
people in town to learn of his good luck. AS
is well remembered, he made a clean breast
of the whole affair when he was
caught carrying a lot of waste satu-
rated with oil, which he expected to
use in setting fire to the old marble
shop on East Broadway. He confessed not
only for himself, but for several Of his com
rades who he claimed had been implicated in
a conspiracy to burn buildings. He even
went so far as to say that he knew he
would so over the road, but he would see to
it that he took some of his friends along
with him. His disappointment will doubt
less be great when he learns that the ex-
pected trip will not materialize, either for
himself or his friends.
Escaped on n Tcchnicaiity.
He escaped on a mere technicality. Mich
olson and the rest Of the crowd were not in
dicted because there was not sufficient evil
dence, the jury thought, 10 implicate them
in the crime. The law provides that in
order to be indicted for attempt to commit
arson the accused must have set fire
to a building or to some material with intent
to cause such building To be burned. Web
Der was not caught setting fire to the build
ing, he was merely walking about with some
oiled waste within ten feet of a building
which had been set on fire twice before That
same night within an hour. Attempt to COM
NIT arson was consequently out of the ques-
ton. The charge of conspiracy was the only
one that was left, and that was also out of
the question, from the fact that there was
no evidence, either from Webber's confess
sion or elsewhere to connect him
with the attempts that had ,been made
previously that night. The whole outfit was
consequently turned loose.
&. A. Murray was indicted for the larceny
of So from Mrs. Jacob Howarth's till. Mary
Baker was indicted for assault with intent
to commit great bodily injury in firing a gun
at her sister, Mrs. Henderson. 'Swede
Henry Anderson and his son Pete were in
dicted for attempting to work the lock game
on }. Il. Logan, a Missouri Valley farmer.
The following were discharged: James
Haughn, charged with assisting Cora Reed
to escape from the county jail Marx Barn
holt, charged with embezzling S25 from Clara
Boyle; Frans Grundel, charged With larceny
from Thomas Moore of Norwalk township;
Ike Canary, charged with assault with in
tent to do great bodily injury.
