NO FEES FOR WITNESSES.
A claim of FL. Mahavier for fees
as witness at the inquest on the re-
mains of James Braniff, held
March 2, was referred to the
county attorney for an opinion by
the county commissioners. The
county attorney gave bis opinion
this morning which is as follows.
"In the matter of the claims of
II. Mohavier for fees as witness In
the Braniff inquest proceedings, l
would say that after diligent in
quiry find no law, or precedent
providing for payment Of wit
nesses. The statute is silent as
to the payment Of county attor-
ney's fees, witness fees, caring for
dead body and numbsrless other
contingencies inseperable from in
quest proceedings. But it does
provide clearly for the payment of
justice (coroner's) fees, thereby
plainly showing that no fees are to
be paid anyone else."
