The case of the state of Minnesota

hearing in the municipal court yesterday
owing to the absence of Judge Doe, but

whatever with the room and SAYS that
he has never been interested in it. In
asmuch as the cases in ques ton come
under the state law, it is probable that
no decisive steps will be taken by the

be held to await the action of the grand
jury.

sui declares his innocence
Special to The Globe.
SIOUX FALLS, S. D.. Jan. 15.-Friends
of w. H Tompkins, late superintendent
of the state reform school at Plankin
ton, are somewhat disappointed at some
of the admissions male by him in mis-
Valentine, Neb.. interview in reference
to the serious charges made against him
by some of the girl inmates of the re-
form school.
That portion of the interview in which
the ex-superintendent states that, hon
estly desiring to nelp a young woman
who had at one time been an inmate, but
who had been released and given posi-
ton in the school, he had committed the
indiscretion of requesting her to write
him regarding another position for her
in care of friend, would perhaps, in the
opinion OF mis- friends, better have been
left unSaid. >- -'r--
Some believe Tompkins may have in
CURED the enmity of some of the girl
inmates, and that because of this he
may be the victim of a conspiracy on
their part. But just what their motive
could be in view of his having retired
from the superintendency of the school
is a mystery. Ii ne was still in charge
Of the reform school, the charges PREFER
ed by the girls might have been instigated
by a desire for revenge upon him for 100
great severity toward the inmates Or
other causes. But he having retired some
months ago renders it-possible that de-
sire for revenge resulted in the serious
charges being made against him.
If he is innocent, as he vigorously de-
clares in his Valentine interview. the mo-
tive behind the action of the girls in
furnishing the state board of charities
and corrections with the affidavts upon
which the public charges against him
are based is a mystery which every resi-
dent of South Dakota will wish to see
solved.

ASKING that the services of the subpoena.
upon witness CHARLES H. Pratt who has
oeeh convicted of Offering a bride to Ad-
dIils' pe SET aside and he be permitted to
return to Chicago. Mr.. GroesbtLk argued
that Pratt now resides in Chicago and
came to Mason at this time BY order of
the court, made at the time of his con-
Vlctlon Nov. 2; that therefore his attend
ance was involuntary and for that rea-
son ne was exempt from subpoena dur
ing the period of his coming and going.
The prosecution was taken by surprise
but urged Pratt's attendance could have
been compelled by bond required last
November, and that he had conducted
himself as witness so far while mere
Pratt Was Stubborn.
The court held the service Of tie sub
poena to be good, and the prosecution at
once called Pratt to the witness stand.
Pratt refused to testify, claiming his
constitutional privilege.
Judge West ruled the Undergraduates
legal and proper and directed the wit
ness to answer. Pratt still declined and
the court held him guilty of criminal
contempt Of court and committed Kim to
the county jail for thirty days.
Attorney Groesbeck gave notice that he
would apply at once for a writ Of habeas
corpus before Judge Swan in the United
States district court in Detroit to review
the questions raised.
Prosecutor futile informed the court
that the evidence of Pratt was necessary
to the case of the state, and for that
reason Judge West ordered the trial to
be postponed until Jan. %.
