relating to the Portland canal. The
signatories were Lord Chief Justice AL

tor Turner and Secretary Root, the
American commissioners. They con-
stituted a majority and ensured finality.
Messrs. Aylesworth and Jette carried
their outspoken disapproval of the de
cision to the point of refusing to sign
even that section of the decision giving
the Portland canal to Canada. and they
emphasized their attitude by walking

COLORADO STATE AFFAIRS AND
DOINGS AT THE CAPITAL CITY
Denver Grand Jury Discharged.

Judge Booth Malone. of the District
Court at Denver on the 18th instant,
vacated the order for the grand jury
which was summoned to investigate
the alleged charter election and regis
tration frauds. The motion for the re-
moval OF the sheriff and coroner, and
the appointment of elisors 20 summon
new grand jury. made by the attor-
neys of the Honest Election League.
was first denied, after which the judge
announced his decision discharging
the grand jurors.
In his decision Judge Malone ad-
dressed the panel present as follows:
But, gentlemen, the court desires
to say word to those of you who
have been summoned to appear here
as grand jurors.
The court wishes to express his
high regard for you. collectively and
individually. Some of you the court
has known personally and somewhat
intimately for several years. and the
court now takes pleasure in saying
that 1t believes the general personnel
of this jury will rank as high in man
hood, standing and character as that
of any jury called within this state,
within the knowledge of this court.
And yet. gentlemen, the court feels
compelled, in justice to you and the
court. to say that no unbiased frienG
of the court or of the jury, and no
true lover of justice who is familiar
with the situation and condition of
things as they now appear before the
court and jury. can honestly believe
that any real benefits or practical re-
suits will or likely can be secured to
the public at this time under the eX-
isting conditions.
The court believes that were you
to attempt to enter upon the duties
of a grand jury at this time you would
be compelled to act without the ap-
proval, sympathy or support of large
part of the general public and of the
very parties who have invoked the
power of the court to have d grand
jury called.
THE court believes that no matter
what you might do, or how you might
do. your actions and even your mo-
tives will be misjudged and miscon-
strued
You would enter upon your du
ties, discredited and handicapped by
the actions and the attitude of the
very parties to whom you would nat
urally have the right to look for en-
cnuragenient and assistance.
81 do not believe, therefore that
you ought to be compelled to strug-
gle with the disadvantages and sub
NIT to the unjust aspersions and crit
icisms that are bound to follow you
under the circumstances. for none Of
which circumstances you are in any
wise to blame.
The order heretofore made by the
court, upon the 18th day of September,
directing the sheriff to summon a
grand jury, will be and the same
hereby is vacated and rescinded.'

The attorneys for General Chase OBJ
jected to Mai. H. c. Naylor on the
ground tha, he had insufficient mill
tary experience that he was of infer
ior rank TO that of the accused, that
he was a personal friend OF the COM
planning witness, and tNat he bore per
sonal anmosity against the accused.

court martial, with his three attorneys.

General Chase bore himself with dig

trial.
Recess was called to take vote on
the eligibility of Major Naylor TO a
place on the court martial. This vote
was taken in private. all not members
of the court being excluded.
On the opening Of the doors and the
resumption of the trial, it was stated
that the objections were not sustained
and Major Naylor resumed his place on
the court martial.
General Chase asked postponcment
OF the case because his chief counsel!
w. j. Stoll was not in the city.
After considerable discussion the
court went into closed session to de
