CASE IS ENDED.
Arguments Closed at Noon To.
day in Judge Diehl's
Court.
A VERDICT OF NOT GUILTY
Was Returned NJ t;i5 This Afternoon,
Therefore Herbert and Barton Were
Discharged by Court.

and II. A. Barton, which has been on
trial for several days before Judge G.
Il. Diehl, m the criminal division of
the city court. and the jury retired 10
consider verdict.
The principal endeavor of the de-
Tense yesterday afternoon was to I'M
reach the character OF Arthur Waller,
who was the most important witness
for the state. Joseph Muir wac the
main person depended upon for this
purpose, and today the prosecution took
u turn by trying to break down the
reliability Of Muir.
w. G, a. Smoot Occasioned much
merriment while testifyiug along the
lines last indicated. In answer TO a
question by Attorney Weber as TO
whom he had heard question the truth
and veraclty Of Muir, he said that he
could more easily enumerate the ones
whom he had not heard crlticise that
person.
Assistant County Attorney Willard
Hanson addressed the jury on behalf
OF the state maintaining that clear
case had been made against the ac-
cused, and asking that a verdict be
rendered accordingly.
Attorneys Hutchinson and Weber
spoke for the defendants drawing the
jury's attention to the fact that their
clients had used the hogs from their
ranch for their own use, as well as
placing some on the market, II the
animals were diseased, II was all UNI
beknown 10 the defendants, and they
found not guilty.
The jury retired, In charge Of balllff,
and at 1:45 p. m. returned verdict OF
not guilty IN both cases, and Messrs.
Herbert and Barton were discharged.

Jail and Battered the
Door pswn.
WERE BENT ON LYNCHlNG BEE
After Three Negroes Who Were said
10 Have Confessed to a
IIoldup,

Omaha. March l6-An attempt was
made at o'clock this morning TO Sc
cure a number of men charged with
murder. who were supposed to be con-
fined in the county jail for the pur-
pose of lynching them.
Twelve men are now awaiting trial
on charges OF murder most of them
committed In connection with hold-ups.
Las evening Edward FURRY street
car conductor, who was shot when his
car was held up a few days ago, died
and the newspapers announced that
three negroes. Clarence Cartright, CAL
win r. VAIN and Harry Clark. hao
confessed TO the hold-up and shooting.
II began to be stated quite openly
that a mob headed by street car en-
ployes would assault the jail during the
night, and that every man charged with
murder would be lynched.
Sheriff Mcdonald gave out the state
ment that none Of the alleged murder
crs were in jail but at midnight a
crowd began t1 gather at the Jail and
by 1880 probably 1000 persons sur
rounded the place.
II was evident that most OF them
were merely spectators, as not more
than 200 or 800 approached the building.
A deVand was made for the prison.
ers a., when the sheriff refused to
admit the mob, a telephone pole was
brought and used for a battering ram.
The outer door soon gave way, but
AT this moment a squad of about 40 po-
licemen came upon the scene, and the
mob was quickly dispersed.
The police used their clubs rather
freely, but none OF the mob was seri-
ously hurt, and no arrests were made.
There was no display OF firearms by
the mob.

Good Work Of Board Of
Trade

The morning paper never fails to
slap the board OF trade and make fun
of It's efforts In behalf OF Durango
and this southwest section. At the
same time the board has gone ahead
mud beneficial results are coming to
the front In many ways. In no way
has this been exemplified 30 forcibly
as In the matter OF reduction in
freight and passenger rates. The re-
duction in freight will save Durango
and La Plata county consumers at
least s25.00o during the year. and
Silverton. Aztec and Frmington fully
as much more. Then there Ii an av-
IL per cent. This Is quite an item
Fortyhve cents Is saved on trip to
Silverton or 80 cents for round trip
Forty cents Is saved In going to
Pennington or so cents for round
trip. This will figure quite sum
during the year and Is an item that
will be readily noticed.
II Will be claimed by the morning
paper that the reduction Is voluntary
on the part Of the railroad officials
and took place before the committee
visited Denver. But the facts will
not bear out any such claim. II wiz
be remembered the Denver Il Rio
Grande officials were invited to come
to Durango by the board of trade and
talk the matter of rates over with our
citizens. This request was complied
with and the question thoroughly dis-
cussed with them early In January.
when freight and passenger rates
were taken up. It was stated at that
meeting that there had been no re-
duction in passenger rates In 20
years. The company was urged to
give better rates, but In order to con-
fine the discussion the ofi1cials invit-
ed the board OF trade to send q COM
mittee to Denver. It was two or
three months before the committee
obtained the necessary data for pre-
sentatIon. In the meantime the ON
clals ordered general reduction Of
car rates averaging nearly 10 per
cent. and 1t was after the visit OF the
committee that passenger rates were
reduced
In these reductions The Herald de-
sires to commend the Denver 4 Rio
Grande. at the same time 1t must be
plain to every fair-minded citizen
that the initiative was taken by the
board Of trade and we firmly believe
the reductions are directly the result
Of the agitation by the board Of trade.
And 1t means a saving OF $4,000
to the people OF this southwest ssc-
ton. Let the board OF trade con-
time In Its good work. Do not lose
faith by snarling critics. Keep y
pegging and Durango will have q su-
gar factory and other public enter
prises pushed.
