JAMES 5. DAVENPORT
IS EASILY ACQUITTED
Famous Case, Tried Yesterday After
noon, Resulted in Speedy Acquit-
tai of Defendant for Introducing

The case against James $. Dayen-
port, charged with introducing liquor
just before the spring election of 1905,
was tried yesterday afternoon in Unit
ed States court before Judge Luman
r.. Parker, Jr 1t resulted in the
speedy acquittal Of the defendant The
defense submitted no testimony what
every, and tho jury was out only
about five minutes.
Two year ago Mr.. Davenport was
chairman Of the Democratic city COM
mittee. A day or two before tile cleo
tion ne left town one night. Early
the next morning the deputy marshals
confscated trunk at the Frisco sta
tion, which contained TWO kegs of
whisky. Mr.. Davenport was arrested
and charged with having purchased
che whisky at Seneca, Mo, and with
having brought it here to be used in
the election.
Mr.. Davenport had his preliminary
hearing before w. 5. SUanfeld, who
was then United STATES commissioner.
He was bound over to the grand jury,
and promptly indicted. His case has
been dragging along since then for
several terms. at the time he had
his preliminary hearing it was an
nounced tnat the government had
clear and unmistable case against him.
Yesterday, however, the govern
nent failed miserably to sustain its
contention. District Attorney w. S.
Staniield had charge OF the prosecu.

Kornegay and Rose Do
Not Relish Being
Prosecuted

Guthrie Okla, Jan. 23-The quar-
rel between the Democrats in the con-
stitntional convention is being CON
tinued with renewed vigor. Almost
open hostitllties have broken out, and
hardly a day now passes but what
some one does not break out on the
floor OF the convention.
Kornegay and Rose seem especially
marked for persecution by the Has
kell-Murray machine, and on several
occasions Of late, either one or other
Of these delegates has taken pains to
let the public know how he feels over
this statement.
Saturday some one belonging to
Haskell,s bunch issued an order to
Leslie Niblack to write an editorial
for his paper. The obedient Leslie
straightway proceeded TO envolve a
"sizzler, in which he almost openly
charged that two alleged Democrats
were not following the straight and
narrow path. Everybody in town
knew that he meant Kornegay and
Rose, and Rose thought so too, for
this morning on the foor Of the con-
vention he brought the matter up and
demanded an investigation.
He said he believed he was one Of
the party referred to, asked President
Alfalfa Bill" Murray to take proper
steps for testing his Democracy. sal
falfa Bill" looked overto where "Rail-
roadN Haskell sat, got his signal, and
quashed the whole business. None Of
the rest Of the convention had the
temerity to take up the matter where
he left off, SO that up to date, Judge
Rose has not been granted an inyesti-
CATION. He is exceedingly bitter to-
ward the boss methods being pursued

| Ruthlessly, and apparently with
malice aforethought, the Constitu-
tional convention today robbed "Cor-
poration Bob" Williams of big hunk
OF campaign thunder which he pro-
posed to use his Forthcoming cam
paign for governor Of the new state
Corporation Bon" had it all fixed.
He had hoped to be able to ride into
Office on the cent railroad fare pro-
position. He had his committee re-
port the proposition as separate pro-
vision to be voted on by the people at
the same time the constitution is
presented to them. 1t was shrewd
move. He knew the general public
would not consider the legal phases of
the proposition so much, but that
they would vote for it from the stand
point Of economics, without regard to
whether suce a law would stand the
test of the courts or not. And little
did he care whether the law stood. 1t
was good vehicle upon which to ride
into a political job
Thus he Is said by his friends to
have argued, when along came Led
better with a substitute which knock
ed they whey out Of his plans.
"Ledbetter's substitute to get 2
cent fare provision report by the COM
mittee has only been offered for the
purpose of giving some candidate for
Office a chance to defend his position
on the floor" declared Delegate Baker
Wewoka this afternoon in opposing
the committee report and also the
substitute offered by Ledbetter Of
Ardmore, AS he made this statement
he looked toward Corporation Bob"
Williams who had during the morning
session made a fiowery speech for vote
getting purposes.
Ledbetter's substitute providing q
cent fares exempted those railroads
which could prove conclnsiyely that
such rate would be disasterous to
their business interests.

Bad Roads Still Inter

Court

The bad roads and high water are
still delaying court. Thi5 morning
again it was found impossible to
transact much business, and adjourn
ment was taken until afternoon. If
the pleasant weather Of the past few
days continues for a while longer,
however, the roads viii become at
least passable.
Yesterday afternoon, before the
Davenport case was taken up, the
grand jury made its first report, re-
turning IA indictments Those indict-
ed we're all in Jail, and we're brought
into court, where, waiying Indictment
their cases were disposed OF as follows:
Plead guilty to introducing: Lewis
Adair, three counts, go days; Willis
Hickison, Sam Tag and John Lewis,
six months ia Fort Smith; John Wat
son, 90 days; A, G. Salyers, 80 days;
Sampson Fourkiller, so days.
Richard Brown, Rufus Mackey and
William Campbell plead not guilty.
John H Carrico, indicted for bur-
glary and larceny, plead guilty to petit
larceny and was given 30 days in jail.
Henry Fields plead not guilty to
burglary and larceny and John Henry
to adultery The latter's case was
transferred to Tahlequah.
J. Walter Adair, under Indictment
for seduction. withdrew his plea ofnot
guilty to that charge and entered a
plea OF guilty to the charge Of forni-

ment, was unable in any way to con-
meet Mr.. Davenport with the purchase
and shipping, of the whisky. The
store-keeper who sold the trunk iden-
titled it, but could not connect Mr..
Davenport with the transaction.
There we're other witnesses, but
none of them furnished any evidence
on which Mr.. Davenport could be
convicted. After the prosection had
rested its case the defense decided to
introduce no evidence, and, after arr
gument by counsel, the case was given
to the jury. A verdict Of acquittal
was speedily returned, and Mr.. Dayen-
ports many friends who we're present
crowded around him to congratulate
him.
The jury was composed Of the follow

When DR.. Monroe had finished his

not specifically stating the amount OF

claring that no person who Is likely to

FUTURE PLANS
FOR ENLARGEMENT
OF FORT SKATER

According to plans that are being
6rawn OF additional barracks and Of
ficers' quarters to be erected at Fort
Shafter 1t is expected that work on
the construction of the same will
commence early next year. Bids on
the work will more than likely be
called for some time in January.
At the present time the military
reservation presents the appearance
Of well-conditioned city. At the
completion of the proposed work. for
which plans are being drawn, Fort
Shafter will be nearly twice the size
1t Is now. Among the proposed bull
dings there will be two more large
barraCk buildings, large domicile
Tor bachelor officers and twelve to
eighteen houses for officers and men.
One of the future improvements
looked forward to Is the installation
OF its own electric plant for furnish
Ing light throughout the reservation.
At present oil lamps are used. A
telephone system throughout the fort
Is u possibility of the future, and
this, with waterworks of its own,
will make Fort Shafter city by it.
