SAYS IT'S \ BLUFF.
The Governments response TO the
attacks was opened by Heney with a
downright declaration that the defend
ants had treated the court to a spec
tacular bluff. He said in part:
The defendants came here promising 70
show their Innocence beyond doubt. Now
they are fighting 10 avoid showing IT, This
argument has ali been wide OF the mark. be-
cause the defendants are not charged with
having defrauded the Government of any land.
but with conspiring 70 defraud- The indict-
ment specifies three ways IN which they
agreed to carry on this conspiracy Then 1t
enumerates number or overt acts committed
in furtherance OF their plot All these things
Dimond is charged with having knowingly
promoted.
Your Honor IS not sitting here TO try these
defendants OF TO determine whether TO send
them TO Washington. but TO FIX the bail N
which they shall be held to appear before
the court in which they were indicted. II no
Indictment had been found the case would be
different. but neither under the common law
nor under the statute is a defendant entitled
10 q preliminary examination after he has been
indicted. This is the law OF every State. and it
Is the law OF the United States The Federal
courts have repeatedly held that il is not for a
commissioner Or Justice CT the Peace to pass on
the sutfciency of indictment, but that this
is the province Of the courts themselves.
Heney read a mass of quotations
from the opinions of Federal and State
courts. sustaining his view that the
form of the indictment was not open
to attack before the commissioner.
Nevertheless he then argued at great
length that the present Indictment was
on all points sufficient. charging the
defendants plainly and adequately with
conspiracy. He will conclude his ar
gument this morning. when Garrett w.
McEnerney and Charles S. Wheeler
will reply. Then the commissioners

may end there, or ii may go on for a
