Special to Evening Teller.
MOSCOW, Idaho, May 23.-When
court convened at 10 o'clock yesterday
morning w. E. Kettenbach, George H.
Kester, William Dwyer, l. N. Smith,
j. b. West and Clarence w. Robnett
We're arraigned on the Boise indict-
ment, known as indictment No. 637
They all entered plea of not guilty.
William Dwyer reserved the right to
change@his plea later the intimation
being that he viii claim bar from
prosecution under this new indictment
on the ground of previous conviction.
When court convened at 2 o'clock
for the afternoon session, United States
District Attorney n. NJ. Ruick an
nounced that the next case to be call
ed for trial would be indictment No.
637, adding that he was not certain at
this time whether that case woud d be
tried at this term of court, owing to
unusual and unlocked for conditions
suddenly arising He said that in any
after No. 637, provided even it was
called when the present case is con-
cluded He said the reason was that
funds in appropriations are running
tailment orders had been issued, and
that retrenchment would be the order
of affairs until after July 1, the be-
ginning Of the next fiscal year.
Charles Carey was called to the wit
ness stand when court was ready to
proceed with the morning session. His
direct examination was much the same
as that of Guy L. Wilson when II
came to material facts. The only ex-
ceptions were in minor details which
apparently have not much bearin on
the main facts in the case.
Defense Plans Impeachment.
That impeachment of the witnesses
for the prosecution will play most
conspicuous part In the defense be-
came manifest yesterday, when Attor-
ney George w. Tannahill for the de-
fense, read into the records portions
of the questions put to and answers
made by both Mr.. Carey and Mrs
Justice. It is taken that at the proper
time the defense will show that the
testimony which these witnesses gave
yesterday along certain lines was no
in accordance with what they gave 8
year ago during thet trial of william
Dwyer.
When court reconvened at 2 o'clock
District Attorney Ruick said II is tn
present intention of the governmen
to try case No. 6s7 at the conclusion o
this case, adding that he could no
state definitely that 1t would come NJ
! for trial. He said that in any even
none of the other cases would be trie,
at this term. saying that advices fror
Washington are to the effect that tn
appropriation which provided for tn
incidental expenses of this particula
branch of the government were run
ming short, and that no more none
would be available until after July
