WARE LOSES ON Two POINTS
Judge Munger 0verrules Two Sections Of
His Motion for New Trial.
THIRD HAS NOT YET BEEN PASSED ON
statute of Limitations Raised and
Court Takes Matter Under Adj
visement, Promising His
Opinion Tuesday.
THIRD HAS NOT YET BEEN PASSED ON

Judge Munger at 3:15 Saturday afternoon,
in passing upon the motion for new trial
for Rev. George G. Ware, overruled the
same as to two propositions contained in
the motion. These were the third and sec
ond propositions, the third being relative TO
the discovery of new evidence and the sec
end pertaining to the instructions given the
jury relative to the continuation of the con-
soiracy.
The court took the matter of the first
proposition under consideration which per-
tains to the subject OF the statute of limi-
tations. and will hand down his decision on
this proposition Tuesday morning next.
Rev. Ware was In the courtroom, accom-
panied by Mrs. Ware, during the argu-
ments on the motion for new trial.
Rev. Ware was recently convicted OF con-
| spiracy with Frank w. Lambert and Harry
Welsh in procuring fraudulent land filings
within the U. B. l. ranch enclosure in
Hooker county.
The argument was opened by T. ]. Ma
| honey, principal attorney for Mr.. Ware.
The main contention on which the appli-
cation for a new trial was made was that
the proceedings against the defendant were
| barred by the statute OF limitations. The
other points at issue were upon the instruc-
tons given by the court in it's charge to
the jury relative to certain things admitted
| to have been done, and that the entries
4 alleged to have been illegal were made by
bona fde entrymen and in good faith A
| third proposition was the discovery OF
new evidence which would have materially
changed the aspect of the case and of
which evidence the defendants had no
knowledge during the trial of the case.
These particular pieces OF evidence are
based upon the affidavits OF one Reason
Hudgen OF Iowa. and John Harman of
the Grand Island Soldiers home. 1t was
stated by Mr.. Mahoney that Hudgell had
] been brought here by the government as

Swedish voters are sharpening their

that John N. Westberg is of Swedish ma
tionality, his countrymen are very bitter
against him. Reported utterances OF his

of leaders recently have thrown fresh fuel
on the flames. According to the story,
Westberg was asked what he proposed to
do about delivering the Swedish vote,

Invention

a witness, but that as he declined to tes-
tify as the government wished that he was
not brought on the stand.
Essential Point of Amdavit.
The essential features of the affidavit of
Hudgell were that he had agreed to obtain
a number of old soldiers to make filings
for Lambert in Hooker county, and that
he was to receive IS for each old soldier
he procured who would make filing. He
states in his affidavit there was no agree
ment the soldiers would have to sell to
Ware or anyone else when they proved
up for $50, or any other sum, and that
while he had gone to Mullen two or three
times he had never met Mr.. Ware, nor did
he know of such a person, and never saw
him until during the trial here in Omaha,
Hudgell claimed he made his own filing
in good faith and intended to prove up on
1t. He has already made improvements
on it and expects to apply the land to ais
own personal use, He was visited by n
secret service official named Grimes In
December, 1905, and was asked to make
an affidavit which is in substance as his
present affidavit regarding the land trans
action. When he came to Omaha under
summons as a witness he was called into
L. c. wheeler's Office and interviewed by
lLldl OlilCldl dS " NudN nc was " TESTIFY
to. Wheeler said to him:
II am the man who worked up this case
against YOU" and after some further talk
he said: This may cost you some of
your good money" The affiant then re-
piled to Wheeler, Maybe you are a smart
aleck." The affiant afterwards met Mr.
Dickinson in the hallway and Dickinson
told him, You got into the wrong ROOM"
and then directed him to the Office of the
special district attorney. Mr.. Rush. He
had further talk with Mr.. Rush and he
was then informed that he would not be
used as a witness.
| HarmalI Ready TO Testify.
| The affidavit OF John Harmall was in
| effect that he was not III at the Soldiers
| home during the trial of Mr.. Ware, but
that he was ready at any time to come as a
witness. He states further he did not make
| a fraudulent entry and that he had made
no arrangements with Lambert or any one
else to sell his land 10 Ware or any other
! person for $50. or any other sum, after he
had made final proof. He said after he had
made final proof he went to Mr.. Ware and
asked him to buy the claim, but Mr. Ware
said to him he did not want to buy any
land, but that the best thing to be done
was to advertise the land and do the best
he could by it.
Mr.. Rush stated In his argument the bar
of the statute OF limitations did not apply;

and some of these say few voters who
might have chung to Westberg for old
times sake are now completely alienated.
The other man on the ticket whom the
Swedes will remember is John Butler, who
has had the presumption to become a can
didate for building inspector. despite his
notorious unttness for the place. Three
years ago the regular republican nominee
for building inspector was Emil VAIL
