OBJECT TO LARIMER.
County Attorney Gibson Tells Court
He Is Unfair.

Charges of prejudice and un~fairness
were made in the supreme court this
morning by John A. Hale, attorney for
County Attorney Gibson of Wyandotte
county, against H. G. Larimer, of To-
pekA the special master appointed by
the supreme court to take testimony
in tie Gibson custer suit.
Mr. Hale presented afidavits from
various parties to show that Mr.. Lari-
mer was in frequent consultation with
Assistant Attorney General MECHANISM,
who are prosecuting the case against
Gibson. 1t was shown by these afi-
davits that Mr.. Larimer spent con-
siderable time in McCamish's office
when it Kansas City.
1t was also claimed that Mr.. Lari-
mel had instructed the stenographer
toleave out of the record certain ques-
tons which he himself had asked the
witnesses thus far examined.
1t was further requested hat the
court modify its order requiring Glib
son to pay $500 into court o n the ex-
penses of the investigation. Mr.. Hale
stated that MI. Gibson was financially
Unable to make any such payment. n
that it would be impossible Tor him to
comply with the order.
After hearing GibsOn's statements,
Nh. Larimer was given a chance to de-
fend himself. He stated that it was
true hat he a been in McCamish's
office a good deal, btu said that this was
because he needed some safe place to
keep his grip, containing his papers,,
etc, and that MECHANISM had given him
the use of a rear room for this .
Concerning the charge hat he had
questioned certain witnesses and not
allowed his questions to go into the
record, Mr.. Larimer said that his ques-
tiors, which he directed the ~stenogra-
pher not to lake, were for the purpose
of satisfying himself that the witness
plea of self determination in refusing
to answer questions, was we'll founded.
He said that of all the witnesses so
questioned be excused all but one.
After hearing both sides of the case,
the justices of the court went into con
sultation, and about noon
that the motion of Mr.. Hale would be
denied, but that certain notifications
would be made in the orders to MI.
Larimer. The ruling is hat the find
ings of the special master are not to
have the full effect of a report of a
referee or the findings of a jury, if as
sailed. The court will not deem a
finding to be conclusive merely because
it is sustained by some evidence. Both
sides are given the privilege of assail-
ing the special findings, and the court
will determine in such cases what the
evidence really I've
1t was ordered that instead of paying
$500 in on the expense bill, that Mr..
Gibson shall pay 500 now. and more
when the first hundred is exhausted.
