REEDER CASE Is DISMISSED
Preiudice IN Prosecution Causss Judge
Dale to Throw the Case Ont of Court

The case of Policeman II. C. Reeder,
charged by George L. Swope and his
wife Of having stolen so cents worth Of
corn from them, after occupying the at
tention and time of the court for three
days, was taken from the jury by Judge
Dale yesterday afternoon and thrown
out of court. When this was done some
Of Officer Reeder's friends in the rear of
the room gave their approval by clap
ping their hands. Judge Dale ordered
the bailiff 10 bring any whom he saw
clapping their hands forward. Ny.
Furnish walked to the back part Of the
room but failed to find any one who dis
turbed the dignity Of the court and so re-
ported to the judge. Judge Dale then
said that If sny of them had been found
that they would have been fined.
When Judge Dale dismissed the case
ne lid so because he said that it was
plainly evident that there was prejudice
in the prosecution. He also took occa-
sion to say that he did not think Reed
er fit man to an officer after he had
pleaded guilty To assault on Mr.. Petzold.
Mr.. A. +. Helm, vino was ReedeF's at
torney. came near creating a sensation
by having a telegram from one Mary E.
Swope of Marion, Ind, introduced as
evidence. Mr.. Amidon objected, which
was sustained. The telegram was to
prove that Mr.. Swope had never receiv-
ed a divorce and that he had married
second time. The telegram read:
Marion, Ind, Nov. 18Th, 1897.
"a E Helm. Wichita, Kansas.
Il was married 10 George L. Swope on
the 11th day Of December, 1889 in Mar

When Captain Swope saw the tele-
gram ne remarked: MARY has sure
signed it. They have put up game on
me. There are many Swopes in end
about Marion. Ind, and this George

SHORTAGE REPORT.
PATTERSON WILL FILE A STATE
MENT MONDAY
Entire Shortage 4" Dorsn's Accounts is
S39,192.

Yesterday morning H. f. Pattel son,
the expert accountant who has been go
ing over the accounts OF John Doran,
completed mis- work and will make re-
port next Monday. The exact amount
of the shortage is 1912, and it is all in
the first term. The examination of the
second term, along with the redemption
accounts has reduced the $4,000 Of the
first term very materially. There is a
shortage In the redemption accounts
alone OF Sl5, 900. sitter giving Doran the
benefit of a doubt of nearly $1,000. Ad-
herring to accounts strictly in evidence
the shortage could be made $1,000 more.
This statement means that there are
about $1,000 in accounts misplaced and
there is no way of telling whether such
amount of money was received by Dofsn
or not. There is no proof that the
amount was received and so no privilege
10 Charge any one with it.
The shortage in the redemption assign
ment account is brought about in vari-
Gus ways ana in some cases there ia evil
dence that attempts were made TO tam
pey with the figures which cannot be eX-
plained The investigation has also
thrown some light on the difference of
accounts between the city and the coun-
ty When IL was first reported that
there was a difference in the accounts
OF the city and the county the county
commissioners hired Mr.. Robert Guthrie
10 60 over the books and his investigs-
ton showed that there wa. coming TO
the city from the county nearly thirty
seven thousand dollars. The canvass OF
the redemption assignment accounts
however. shows the amount to Be move
rasn this or nearly $4,000.

Although the Ancient and Accepted
Scottish Rite Masons Of the valley of
Wichita have not purchased or even ac-
cepted the proposition submitted to buy
tically settled by the committee last
evening that the building and grounds
be purchased. The gentlemen who have
had the matter in charge and have been
working assiduously for new and en-
larged quarters fOc a Masonic cathedral
are: c. VI. Jones, T. G. Fitch. Ed. Gold
berg, C. II. COIN and ]. Giles Smith.
When the Y ". c. A. building becomes
the property OF the Scottish Rite Ma
suns and has been remodeled SO that the
beautiful work Of the order can be ex-
cathedrals in the United States, and 10y
far the handsouest in the west.
The matter mas not been settled; and
will not be, probably, for few days, as
the committee wish to confer with Mr..
j. D. Houston, who is the attorney for
the present owners OF the building. He
IS at present out Of the city. The com
mittee viii meet this afternoon at 3
O'Clock and it is barely possible that
definite action viii be taken. Should
the trade falt through, which now does
not seem possible, tee Masons will tear
down the structure which they have oc-
cupied for the past seven years at the
corner Of Market and First streets, and
erect a magnificent structure designed
purposely for their order. There is a re-
spectacle minority who favor building
on the property now owned by the order.
In case the deal IS consummated
whereby they become the possessors Of
the Y. NJ C. A building. the present
property will be retained as an invest
ment, as it is one of the best proper
ties in the city. Probably a five years
lease will be given to the Y. NJ. c. A. on
the old cathedral and only a nominal
rent charged, simply enough TO keep the
building in repair This will be a char
liable act and VIII give the Young
Mems Christian association a home
right in the heart of the city.
As the Y NJ. c. A. building has more
than enough room for the Scottish Rite

effort will be made to get the grand
lodge headquarters located in this city
permanently. AS it is now, the head
quarters are moved to wherever the
gentleman lives who is elected grand
master Later, should this plan sue
coed, an effort will be made TO get the
grand lodge Of the state TO erect perma-
nent buildings here.
