GOVERNOR ASKS HALF RATES.

Gov. Terrell has requested of the
Southeastern Freight Association a
special low rate of transportation for
the material which is to be sent to
st. Louis for the construction of the
Georgia building at the Louisiana Pur-
chase Exposition. He has also asked
a low rate for the Georgia exhibit,
which will be sent out to ST. Louis
about the same time. The Governor
has received a letter from Chairman
PARROT of this association, stating
that he will know definitely within a
few days whether the rate asked can
be granted. The Governor is anxious
to secure at least half rates on this
transportation, and it will be quite a
saving to the state if this can be done.

SCHAbERG
RELEASED

c. w. Schaberg, one Of the best
known trustees the Jail ever had, left
today for Portland, the case against
him having been dismissed.
Schaberg served six months for
the forgery of a check on P. Wey-
mouth, whom he valued as a great
friend. After serving that sentence
he got into trouble again for forging
a IS check of William Lear. also a
friend. Lear withdrew the case,
hence his release.
The man is by no means of COM
mon type of prisoners. His downfall
is due to drink. Fourteen years ago
he was purchasing agent for the
Northern Pacific railroad with head
quarters in Spokane. 1t was in this
capacity that he met Weymouth, who
was superintendent of the same road,
and in whose good graces he occu-
pied a prominent part.
Since that time he has travelled
everywhere. Returning to Spokane
from Los Angeles, he renewed his ac-
quaintance with Mr.. Weymouth with
the result that he forged his name,
never realizing that so good a friend
would prosecute.
He has been an ideal trusty and
as a No. 1 bookkeeper he was en-
trusted with the books of the sher-
IFS office. He kept them in excel
lent shape. The man is well educat-
ed and has occupied several very
high positions in railroad circles Of
the west.

LAWYERS MAKE CHEAP
ATTEMPT AT BETTING

The trial of A. Anderson took place
in Judge Stocker's court today and
he was placed under 5000 peace
bond. There were in all seven
charges against the man. The COM
planning witness in all instances was
1. A. Mosher, who petitioned the
court to have Anderson put under
peace bond.
The case was unusually interesting
and the courtroom was well filled
with ranchmen, neighbors of both
parties. Anderson is accused OF
shooting five cows and two horses be-
longing to Mosher. He is also
charged with burning down the cabun
and setting prairie fires. All acts
were done for spite, so 1t is claimed.
1t was the opinion of many of those
present at the trial that Anderson Is
a much abused man. That he may be
guilty of possibly one or more OF
the offenses 1t is an assured fact
that all the charges laid against him
are not true
Moshers son, the chief party to the
charges, was not present and II is
said he and his father do not agree
as to Anderson's guilt.
There is a deadly enmity existing
between Mosher and Anderson and
the desire for revenge is imminent.
Anderson has been in Jail for some
weeks owing to failure to obtain
bonds.
Attorney Hopkins and Mr.. Mosher
got into an argument after the trial
over the raising of his bonds and
Hopkins offered to bet $40 to a ciga:
that Anderson could get bonds be-
fore night. The bet was raised UP
to 500 against $40.

where they went to get the draft
cashed wire not supplied with suffi-
cient money.
1t was too bad, but would Belts
loan his new employer $25 with which
to buy the tickets and accept the big
draft as security?
Belts was willing and handed over
the $2b, which represented his entire
savings.
Then the two strangers went Off to
buy the tickets. Belts took the draft
into Frank Smiths cigar store and
learned that II was worthless.
1t was then that Belts developed
detective ability. He cast about town
until he caught sight of the bunco
men again and then, sleuth like, he
trailed them to a room in Bishop
court. Then he telephoned to the
police station.
Sergeant Sullivan and Detective
Burns responded and arrested the two
men. The man who represented him
self as an employer gave his name
at the police station as II. Stone. His
companion was booked as r.. Il. Pick
erel.
Charges of obtaining money under
false pretenses were made and the
two swindlers were arraigned before
Judge Hinkle this afternoon and
pleaded not guilty.

case until next week. on this ground

TWO BUNC0
MEN AT. WORK

Although Fred Belts was easy
enough for the bunco men to work
him out of s25, he developed amaz-
ingly after losing his money and
played detective ably enough to land
the two men who swindled him be-
hind the bars.
Belts arrived in Spokane yester-
day afternoon from Moscow and was
on his way to his home In Occur
dAlene city. At the depot of the
Occur d'Alene electric line Belts was
met by a smooth stranger giving his
name as F. A. Stanley.
The stranger put up large story
about having a ranch over in Mon
tana, where he needed men badly and
offered Belts job at $45 month
and his board.
Belts concluded 1t was good thing
to tie to and agreed to go to work
for Stanley, who declared it neces-
sary for him and his new employe to
catch the train for Montana at 4:3O
o'clock.
A friend of the stranger showed up
and the two started out to buy tick
cts for Belts and themselves. First,
though, 1t became necessary to cash
a draft for s795, which was made out
to Stanley.
