Justice o. L. Campbell this after
noon sustained the motion OF the &C.
Tense and discharged Mark E. Vance,
charged with sodomy on tie ground
that the evidence submitted did not
show that the crime of sodomy had
been committed DR.. Vance was i'm
re-arrested charged with at
tempt to commit rape and his trial was
fixed for next Wednesday morning at
1890 o'clock before Justice Campbell.
He was released on bonds OF $4,000
signed by T. P. Spilman and w. w.
Vance.
The new charge was made by Els
telle Mintoyne. aged fourteen years,
of Eddyville. Beside this girl sat an
other, Alta Miller. aged IS, ready, it is
alleged to testify to the same charge,
and besides these two girls were May
Toole and Mamie O'Connell, both OF
this city, who had been subpoened to
testify in the case, they having it is
alleged, made the same allegations as
the other girls. Tho cE!ne in which
Estelle Mintoyne and Alta Miller are
said to lave been concerned Was com
inittod, it is alleged. several months
ago in DR.. Vances office at Eddy.'ille.
while that upon the Toole end O'Con-
nell girls is alleged to haze occurred
in this city later
Morning Session.
This morning the time of the court
was taken up in hearing IL e final or
guments of the defense to dismiss the
case OF sodomy. The prosecution
practically admitted that they could
not show that sod9my had been com
mitted and there was no surprise ex
pressed when Justice Campbell dis
missed the case on the motion.
Justice CampbaIi's Opinion.
Justice Campbell said in disposins
of the defendants motion to dismiss
the case and discharge the defendant
on the ground that the testimony a!
produced by the state fails to show
the commission of acts on the part O
the defendant which constitutes the
crime of sodomy:
"That the court is not passing OF
the veracity or truth of the testimony
as introduced by the state but onl!
as to whether said facts in law con
stitute the crime of sodomy. Tha
lily IllC oltiLuISo VI INV q iiistthS hoSNa
omy crime there is no definition il
the statute as to what specific act
go to make up the crime of sodomy
That being the case we must conside
the decisions of courts other than on
own which has never defined wha
specific acts are necessary to const
tute the crime charged in this case
After careful consideration of the al
/. thorities submitted, together with tn
testimony on the part of the state,
) find that the testimony introduced i
California case, People VS.. Boyl,
decided in 1897; also a Texas cas-
State VS.. Prindle, decided in 1898,
be exactly similar to the testimon
introduced by the state in this cas-
In each of these cases and under sta
utes similar to those of Iowa, an
, where the evidence was identical
that introduced in this case, that th
! supreme court in each instance hel
that acts such as have been shown b
the state in this case do not const
tute the crime of sodomy under til
: facts in the case and the law as it no
exists and without passing on the me
it's of the case the court sustains tt
: motion to dismiss the case and tt
2 defendant is discharged"

The ball game at Ellis Park last
Saturday between the Grattan and
Rockford teams was sorely disappoint-
ing to the audience who went there in
anticipation of witnessing a close con-
test. Their disappointment however
was not more grieyous than that of
the Rockford boys themselves, as they
supposed they had fixed things in such
a way that victory would perch upon
their banners with little effort, even
the Grattan boys were sorry for them.
Both teams strengthened up or sup
posed they did by hiring league play
ers, three from Grand Rapids were
with Rockford and two from Green
Vile assisted Grattan with Chapman
of this city as catcher, more skill and
better playing was exhibited on the
part of their own members than by
the foreign aggregation.
Rockford kicked on the first umpire
Alva Pringle and George Stout was
substituted but this change didn't
help them little bit as Grattan kept
right on running in scores.
Score 10 and T.
Next Saturdays game is Ionia
against Otsego and good battle is
anticipated. The latter is a team
that was never beaten.
