days ago at Snake river and taken to the
CoifaN jail on q charge of sending the
Internal machine to Miss Gertie Spicer.
was i'll town yesterday, and was interview
ed by your correspondent. He stated that
his brother Toby was not married man.
and never had been. and desired to have
the correction made. He also stated that
the firm of Chadwick, Fullerton & Wyman
of Cofax had undertaken his brothers
defense, and that the intention was to
put up strong legal fight to save him
from conviction, and further stated that
his brother Toby had resided with him
at his home, close to the Spicer place. al
most all the time for the past six years.
and that he had no reason to believe him
guilty, and If he did he would not fight
his case. IF they can convict Toby" he
said, ''after a fair trial, we will be salts
fed. We ask nothing but fair play in the
matter, and no favor Whatsoever" Mr.
Reid also paid his respects to some secret
organization, which he failed to name
kane, saying he would take good care
that none Of its members were allowed to-
serve upon the jury if lie could prevent it,
and that he would use every means to ac-
compnsE that end The presumption was
that he alluded to the Silver Federation.
as he afterwards declared his brother to
be black and died in the wool republican,
People around here generally do not know
what to think of the case, and most OF
them are awaiting the trial in order to
find out what there may be to substantt-
ate the charges Of constructing and send
ing the internal machine.

POOR ABSOLVED FROM ABSTINENCE
statement by Father Ducey Denied by
the New York Notwithstanding

New York, July 7.-Rev. Father Ducey
the pope has promulgated q decree alb
solving poor people and working people
from observance of all days of absti-
nence in the year except Fridays, even
during Lent. The rumor that such a de-
cree was in existence has been in circu-
lation for some time, and Father Ducey
says the document will be forwarded to
the bishops of the United States, and has
been promulgated in the west. Speaking
of the decree Father Ducey said:
Many of the ecclesiastics in this coun-
try have felt for years that the burden
of denial placed on the conscience of q
struggling and working people was more
than hardship-almost a martyrdom. I
have not seen the official document sent
to the bishops of the United States, but
this information came to me about two
months ago from a most trustworthy Ro-
man Catholic correspondent. It has seem
ed to me for years that legislation in ia
Vor of the hard working poor was most
necessary. What hardship to ask of men
and women whose fare is always meager,
doubtful, and that are certainly practic-
ing denial that robs them of their
strength and units them for the proper
discharge of their duties and labor, when
the comfortable, the well-to-do and the
rich and luxurious are feasting sump-
tuously every day"
Father Lowell, of the archbishop's resi-
dence, says that the rumor is absurd, and
was manufactured in New York.

Dismissed.

Pullman, July 8.-Wesley Moore, a broth
er of Floyd L. Moore, who gained some
notoliety in the Saddler divorce case, was
arrested yesterday by Constable Bohmann

charging him with assault. Moore was ar
raigned, and being unable to furnish
bonds was locked up in the calaboose,
where he still remains. The preliminary
examination was held al o'clock this at

arisen because Moore refused to leave
