TO FILF ANOTHER APPEAL.
Fritz Dietrich's Arrival At the Pen
tertiary Will Be Delayed BY
His Attorneys.

Fritz Dietrich, the man who pleaded
guilty to the charge of gambling after
the new law went into effect, and on
whose appeal the supreme court last
week affirmed the cOnstitutiOnality of
the law, will probably have some time
yet to stay in the county Jail, says
last nights Spokane Chronicle.
After the decision of the supreme
court, rendered a few days ago. it was
expected that Dietrich would be taken
10 Walla Walla at once to serve out
his sentence, but this morning Graves
& Graves, his attorneys, filed notice
of appeal to the supreme court, which
may delay the removal for a time and
possibly may result in Dietrich sery-
ing the greater part Of the sentence
in the county Jail.
Graves & Graves positively refuse
to say on what grounds they propose
to take the case up this time, but as
the cOnstitutionality Of the law has
already been passed upon it is prob
able that the grounds viii be the al
IeSGQ lack Cl JurISulCIlOu Vi IIt NCttl =
or the insufficiency of the information,
or both of these grounds.
Surprise to Dietrich.
The news that his attorneys were
still fighting for him came as a sur
prise to Dietrich. The first he heard
of the matter was when a Chronicle
reporter visited him in the county jail.
Despite the bad news he received
last week. and the penitentiary star
ing him in the face, Fritz seems to
be in a good humor. He jokes about
his position and freely expresses his
opinion that he will have to spend 10
months at Walla Walla.
A motion was made this afternoon
to admit Dietrich to bail Judge Ken
nan being the only judge sitting at
present, it came up before him, but he
refused to entertain the motion, pre-
ferring to let it come up before Judge
Richardson. before whom the previous
proceedings have been held. It was
consequently continued till Wednes-
day.

WHY STEEL BILLETS
WERE MADE CHEAPER
Price Was Regarded Too High and Out
of Parity.

NEW YORK, Nov. IL. = Willis L.
King, vice president of the Jones &
Laughlin Steel company of Pittsburg,
today gave out a statement of the out
come of the recent conferences, which
have resulted in reducing the price
Of steel billets to $23 per ton and steel
bars to $3.50 base per 100 pounds, other
steel prices remaining unchanged. The
statement follows:
During the last week the principal
manufacturers of steel and steel prod
ucts have been in consultation con-
corning trade conditions. While it is
fact that there has been a decrease
in volume of business during the last
few months, it is also true that sub
stantlal tonnage is being booked, and
the general opinion seems to be that
the outlook is quite promising and i'm
proving. 1t was the unanimous opinion
that the price of the billets and bars
was too high and out of parity. There
fore the. price of the former has been
reduced to $23 per ton, Pittsburg. and
of the latter $1.30 base per. 100 pounds.

commodities, however, remain I'M
