be spent merely in preparing the official
findings.
All Quiet at Caldwell.
Caldwell. in spite of some lurid reports
to the contrary, is absolutely quiet and
unexcited. Every stranger is viewed with
more or less suspicion, and some entirely
harmless individuals have been made the
basis for sensational reports of plans to

the case.

Foundation of the Charge.

This is to be made the foundation of
a charge, according to the Information,
that Mr.. Moss came here to conSurt with
the governor about the work Of the grand
jury and that he was clOseted with the
head Of the state government for an hour
or more. As the two men are personal
friends of many years, no one thought
anything of it when they saw them chat
ting together, but persons active in the
interest of the defense started the story
that there had been a consultation over
the work of the jury. The governors at
tention was called to this rumor at the
time and he then said that he had not
spoken to Mr. Moss at any other time
than when they sat down there in the
rotunda and talked for a few minutes on
matters having no connection with these
cases.
