Jofn Rice. who z>as held for trial IN
the district court for the murder OF old
Fred Beutler, the umbrella member
about two months ago, was yesterday
discharged on motion Of the prosecu-
tion.
Since Rice's incarceration his attor-
news. Messrs. Rhea and Earls, have
heen working assiduously to get him
discharged for the reason that the
evidence upon which he was commit
ted was altogether insufficient to OBJ
tain a conviction, and although the
detectives here have been working on
me case since the murder they have
been unable to add anything to the tes-
tinlony against the accused. In fact,
the opposite was the case, as certain
circumstances which in themselves
tended 10 connect the defendant with
the crime have, by the efforts of the
attorneys for the defense, been partly
explained away.
Assistant County Attorney Putnam
moved before Judge Norrel yesterday
that Rice be discharged, and in doing
so Mr.. Putnam said that he was ia
miliar with the facts and evidence in
the case, and while he considered the
evidence adduced at the preliminary
hearing sufficient to hold the man, yet
he was thoroughly satisfied in his mind
that on the evidence as it stood now
no jury would convict. Taking this
view OF the case, counsel thought 1t
would not be proper to hold him any
longer, and he therefore would ask the
court TO order his discharge.
Judge Norrell instructed that the or
der be made, and Rice is again free
man.

and made to serve where needed and
by doing so the running of trains can
soon be resumed over the washed out
portion of the road.

CULLEN-PoWERs SUIT.
Judge Hiles Finds the Issues For the
Plaintiff.

Judge Hiles yesterday rendered judg-
ment in the case of Ma thew Cullen vs..
NJ. L. Powers, in which his honor found
the issues for the plaintiff.
In the suit Cullen alleged that Pow
ers, in 1895, executed and delivered to
him a deed to certain mining claim
and that the deed had been lost or
destroyed and Powers refused to exc
cute a new deed.
Powers testified that he never did
execute a deed to Cullen. On the other
hand Attorney w. G. Hall testified that
Powers did execute the deed and did
deliver It TO Cullen. These two wit
nesseS, the opinion says, being of equal
credibility and equally liable to make
a mistake, the case could only be de-
cided by considering which of them is
sustained by cOrroborative evidence
and the eXtrinsis probabilities.
The circumstances, his honor held,
showed that the prepcnderance of
evidence was in favor of the plaintiff,
and judgment was rendered that Pow
ers execute a new deed to Cullen for
the property in question and that Pow
ers' cross complaint be dismissed.
