Early in the evening the bishop ad-

after their interests and said he felt
confident that they would be back at
work by Friday.
The bishop then drove to South Buf.

MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE.
Criminal Escapes Because of DiIatory
Methods of Federal Officials.

There was lamentable MISCARRIAGE of
justice yesterday, morning in the United
States District Court, when Judge de
Haven ordered the indictment brought
against w H. NJ. Ogg dismissed and the
prisoner discharged because the principal
witness for the prosecution had not been
subpenaed and had left the city the even
ing before.
Ogg was a resident of Sacramento and
was indicted on complaint of Superinten-
dent Thrall of the Railway Mail Service
and charged with using the mails for the
transportation of immoral matter in the
shape of drugs: Last Monday the sub
penas for the defendant were placed in
the hands of the United States Marshal
for service. a Deputy Marshal served the
subpenaS in Sacramento and FL Dorado
counties, but he neglected to serve one on
Superintendent Thrall, the most vital wit
ness on the part of the. Government.
the office of the United States Marshal
and the deputy took it for granted that he
could be served at any time. The delay
was fatal for last Sunday night Mr..
Thrall left for Washington in obedience
to a dispatch from the Postmaster Cen
eral. and when the subpoena was taken to
his office yesterday morning, Of course he
could not be found.
AS it was conceded that a conviction
was impossible without Mr.. ThralPs evil
dence, Judge de Haven threw the case out
of court.

morrow morning by vote that bade
fair to carry it through any time II
came up, and the Grant men were not
willing to tie themselves down.
For some time informal talks be-
tween Grant men and Burns men on
the subject of an adjournment have
been INDUCED in, and the caucus this
evening was the result of feeling
that Grant might not be much bene-
fitted if his men bound themselves tG
an adjournment next Saturday night.
The Burns men are anxious to hold on
for another week, and the Grant men
are willing to go as far as Wednesday
and until the following Saturday if
events warranted. 1t was decided by
the conference therefore, to have the
Grant Senators when the concurrent
resolution came up move to postpone
consideration until Friday morning.
The Grant Senators made their deal
in the Senate and finally compromised
by agreeing to let the consideration OF
the resolution go over until Thursday
morning. This Will be done when the
resolution comes up tomorrow unless
intervening events demand a different
course. -
While together the Grant men talked
over the latest straw at which the
drowning Burns forces are so eagerly
clutchjng. 1t appeared that nearly
every Grant man had been approached
by the Burns touts who We're handling

of them had signed it. The only sigma

were those of Burns men. and one of
them, Burnett, Senator from San Fran

an hour after he had signed.
