Both men were hailed into the police

cation of articles in the Glasmann

to the articles which now appear to
have been offensive to the district at
torney, was Of the opinion that Mr..
Halverson was killing the town of
Ogden on account of his crusade
against the gambling and saloon ele-
ment of the city. There has been much
bad feeling between the plaintiff to the
actions filed yesterday and the former
city executive, and both parties have
been cited into court on divers charges
At the present time there are also
contempt proceedings pending in the
district court against Giasmann and
Francis, as also against the district
attorney. The court has already de-
cided that it has no jurisdiction in

son. The complaints filed yesterday

sidered to Have Eliminated the
Ryan Resolution.

Indianapolis, Ind, March Lit can
be stated authoritatively that the Off
Gals Of the United Mine Workers of
America have decided to allow the
Ryan resolution to be eliminated from
consideration, and will act upon the as
sumption that the adoption of the re-
port of the scale committee has virtual
ly repealed the resolution which pre-
vented one district from signing an
agreement with the operators until all
districts had come to an agreement.
The report of the scale committee was:
Resolved, That we heartily indOrse
the policy and action of President
Mitchell in this matter, and do now
hold ourselves in readiness to meet our
employees for the purpose of endeavor-
ing to effect a satisfactory settlement

All of the resolutions which endeav-
oTed to affect action on the scale or the
Ryan resolution were quietly sent to

ants be allowed bail. John F. Nugent
opened with an earnest talk for the
motion. Mr.. Nugent declared that the
men were ready and willing to give bail
in any reasonable amount and that
they should be permitted to do So He
based his opinion on the statute which
provides that bail shall be allowed in
all cases except in cases of murder and
treason. and it shall not be denied in
such cases except when the proof is
present or the presumption of guilt
great. Neither the proof nor the as
sumption was at hand in this case, the
attorney argued. The only evidence
before the grand jury was supplied by
Harry Orchard, a self-confessed assas-
sin, who admits that the blood of
twenty-seven other men is on his head.
The law says that the returning of in
dictment should not prejudice the ap-
pliCation of a defendant for bail. Mr..
Nugent called attention to the fact that
men are often indicted for murder when
the prosecution hopes to convict them
of a lesser offense.

Consulted His Attorney.

In answer to questions Mr.. Moss
said that he came to Boise from Cald-
well on the day the grand jury was
organized, arriving here early in the
evening. His purpose in visiting Boise
was to consult his attorney, J. H.
Richards, on a legal matter. Imme-
diately on his arrival he telephoned
to Judge Richards, requesting him to
come to the Idanha hotel, where Mr..
Moss was staying. The two consulted
together on their private business until
about 1890 o'clock, when Judge Rich
ards went home. AS he passed through
the hotel lobby with the attorney Mr.
Moss said he saw Governor GOoding.
Judge Richards having gone home,
the foreman and the governor took
places on a settee in the lobby and re-
NAMED there for perhaps four or five
minutes while the executive waited
for a street car. Nothing whatever,
according to Mr.. Moss, was said about
the dynamite cases, the conversation
being about the purchase of some
sheen.

Denied Newspaper Story.

The witness said he had seen a
newspaper article in which it was al
legged that he came to Boise as fore
man Of the grand jury to consult with
Governor GoOding. The story was not
true. but he had not taken the trouble
to deny 1t. Asked if he knew W. @.
MacRae, a newspaper man, the wit
ness replied that he did. He denied
telling MacRae that he had a confer
ence with the governor, with Chief
Prosecutor Hawley, Pinkerton Detec-
tive MCFARLAND or W. Z. Borah of
counsel for the prosecution. He new
er- saw MCFARLAND before he saw him
in the grand jury room and never
talked to him outside of it. Hawley
and Borah he knew quite We'll but he
had not exchanged a dozen words
with either of them for six months or
more. A CrOss-eXaminatiOn by Pros
ecutor Hawley failed TO throw any
light on the case, and Mr.. Moss was
excused.

Boise, Ida, March 1.-THE defense

he had been appointed foreman and
before any evidence had been heard.

Mr.. Moss had expressed an opinion to
the effect that the defendants were
guilty of the charge against them.

MacRae Failed Them.

MacRae was the next witness. He
said, replying to Mr. Richardson's in
ouiries. that he had had a converSa-
ton with Attorney Miller of the de-

heard Mr. Moss had met the governor.
Mr.. Moss himself had told him that

whatever to indicate that he had con-

body else about the prosecutions side
of the case.
Attorney Hawley then read affidavits
signed by Governor GoOding, Mr.. Bo-
rah. MCFARLAND and himself, all deny
ing explicitly that they had consulted
with Mr. Moss. Mr.. Hawley offered to
produce the witnesses in court for
REORGANIZATION if the defense desired
it, but Mr. Richardson was willing to
waive that privilege
without hesitating a moment the
court announced that the motion to
strike the indictments from the files,
the motion which had been supported
by the allegations against Moss, would
be dismissed. Then, in their order and
without argument, the court dismissed
the plea in abatement and the motion
to set aside the indictments The de-
