CASE AGAINST EVERETT.


Special Dispatch to the Post-Intelligencer
GRAND FORKS. B. c., Nov. aO-united
States Consul Dudley, of Vancouver, who
was here two days ago, took large
amount Of evidence in the Martin Everett
kidnapping case at Republic. It developed
in the evidence given here that Everett
is not held for holding up stage. but the
offense he is alleged to have committed
was that of robbing blacksmith.
A Canadian police officer told Consul
Dudley here that he knew positively that
Everett did not commit the crime, but the
worst that was done was that Everett
knew that the robbery was to take place,
and was perhaps implicated in an Indirect
way. The Canadian officer says that Bou-
che, the Frenchman, who since skipped his
bail, was the real perpetrator of the crime
There may have been some excuse, too
for the apparently high-handed action of
the American sheriff in sending Everett
out of the country without trial and re-
fusing to recognize the writ or habeas COR
pus. The town of Republic was terrorized,
hold-ups were common and the sheriff
was pressed to do something. He was at
his wits end, and sent Everett away be-
cause he was the friend of man named
Theodore, Faust. who was said to have
held up stage in Idaho. Everett has been
an exemplary prisoner in Kamloops JAIL
