THREAT OF LYNCHING At PRICE
CHARLES E. BRADT CHARGED
WITH A GRAVE CRIME.
Under Arrest Now and It Is Feared
An Attempt Will Be Made to
Summarily Execute Him.
Especial to The Herald.)

Price, Utah, March 1-Charles E.
Bradt, a blacksmith, man of per-
haps IS years of age and single, is un-
der arrest at Wellington, six miles east
of Price, charged with attempted rape
upon three little girls, the youngest
years of age, and the oldest 10 years.
The first is the child of James DIM
mick, the second that Of William j.
Tidwell and the third George B. Miner.
About two months ago Bradt left here
to take work at Wellington, and has
been in the habit of buying candy,
nuts and the like for the children.
He enticed the child of Dimmick to
haymow and was caught in the act
of assaulting her by a brother of the
Dimmick girl. who is aged Z years. For
some reason the matter was kept quiet
until a few days ago, though the oc-
cuTrence was over month ago. EX
element is running high there. and it
would not be surprising if a lynching
should occur. The preliminary trial is
set for tomorrow. There was strong
talk of hanging last night, and
crowd gathered fer the purpose, but it
was decided to await the result of the
preliminary hearing. 1t is said that
Bradt was run off the Uintah reserva-
ton last winter before coming to Price
for similar offenses. Should he be held
as guilty at the trial tomorrow it is
doubtful if he will reach the county seat
to give bond or await trial in jail.

McCune was going to pay $1,000 a head
for votes, or something OF the kind
simply q. rumor.
Where did you get your information?

one? No. sir.
Where did you make this statement

Democratic and he was elected. l told

deadlock, and it would be better for
him and the Democratic party. He
asked me to suggest who he should
vote for. told him thought as little
as he could do was to vote for Frank
Cannon if he couldn't vote for a Demo-

until this money proposition came up,
and we discussed that for some time.

sir
From what district? First district.

Representative Redd about a PROPOSE
ton being made of $1,000 TO vote for
Mr.. McCune? I do.

talking over the situation in his Of
flee. Henry Peery is here, and the COM

handed.
Did any Of Mr.. McCune's representa-
tives, or Mr.. McCune himself, make an
offer of $4,000 through you? No, sir.
Do you know, of your own knowl-
edge, whether any such an offer has
been made by Mr.. McCune's represen-
tatives? Mr.. McCune and his repre-
sentativeS would not be very apt to
make an offer through me.
The charge has been made that such
an offer was made. This was in the
Walker House, and not on the floor
Of the house? No, sir; it was in the
Walker House. This man Redd told
a friend of mine that he wanted to
talk with me on several propositions,
and he has got this thing mixed.
State what conversation you had
with Mr.. Redd on that subject. / don't
know that 1 can state the exact CONVEX
sation. The effect of the conversation
was this: I said that I understood
there was 5000 for anyone to vote for
McCune.
Where did you get that? AS stated,
1 got it from Mr.. Peery. in his Office.
What was said as to that in Mr..
Peery's office? Mr. Peery told me that
he understood there was $1,000 in a
vote for Mr.. McCune.
Didn't he state from what source he
got it? No, sir.
