CRUCIAL STAGE
REACHED IN THE
BRIBERY TRIAL
Day Was Taken Up in Arguments OF
Counsel as to Admissability
of Evidence.
(By the Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1.-THE
trial of Louis Glass for bribery reach
ed a crucial stage today, when the
prosecution made it's first attempt to
begin the introduction of the testi-
mony of ten or more supervisors 9TH
er than Boxton, that their votes
were bought by Theo. v. Halsey, act
ing under direction of Vice President
Glass of the Pacific States Telephone
company. Such testimony is called
evidence of similar offenses," and
it is often admitted in criminal tri-
ais for the purpose of showing COR
rupt intent on the part of a defend
ant in the commission of the act
for which he is being tried. Glass
at the present time is being tried for
the bribery of Boxton; the prosecu-
tion contends that it has the right to
lay before the jury the inference of
his guilt contained in the proof of
his having bribed other supervisors.
like Boxton, against the granting of
a rival franchise to the Home Tele-
phone company. The defense denies
this right, mainly on the ground that
the state is not privileged to prove
other crimes in an effort to establish
the crime on trial.
The argument on this point, con-
ceded to be of even more than its
original Importance, was in progress
of argument at the adjournment this
afternoon.

"The King of Bulfrog" is paying
Ely a visit. H. II. Clark, the we'll
known mining man who is familiarly
known by the above title, arrived in
Ely yesterday afternoon in an auto
mobile. He is accompanied by his
wife and his mahout, A. Lathon. Mr..
Lathon's wife is also member of
the party. The big machine was
covered with dust when it pulled into
Ely and it was plain to see the auto
had made quite a trip. Mr.. Clark,
who is very affable gentleman, was
accosted by News representative
last evening while he was standing
in front of the Northern. The party
had arrived from Tonopah.
I'm just on little jaunt," he said
in response to the reporters ques-
tion concerning his appearance here.
"I have some mining interests in ELY
and am attending to them also. we
will probably remain here few days
and will then start for Goldfield.
Making record rum laughed
the reporter.
"Yes, certainly" replied Mr.. Clark.
Were endeavoring to make the
worlds record-for the slowest
time"
Mr.. Clark is we'll known through
out Nevada, having had one of the
biggest properties at Bullfrog. In
fact, he was one of the first men in
the camp and through his connec-
tions there was given the title of 1.-The
King of Bullfrog." He sold his in
terests at Bullfrog to a Mr.. MELON
aid, but it has been reported that the
real purchaser was Schwab.
"Bullfrog is quiet at the present
time" he said, "but will pick up be.
fore long. The mines are there and
will be developed by big companies
that are planning on taking up the
work on a large scale"
| Mr.. Clark also said that Goldfield
had picked up considerably during
the past three weeks and that it was
again a very active place. He was
asked what he thought of Ely anG
he replied:
ely is bound to be great camp
There is no doubt about that. The
ore deposits are here and as soon az
the mines begin producing the tow

witnesses charged with perjury, ar

fused to say whether he carried
pistol.

the will of Hau wife left by her with
farewell letter before committing
suicide. Provision of this document
is that her little daughter should
take another name. he judge said
this indicated that Mrs. Hau was con-
vinced of her husbands guilt. Hau
replied with much feeling that he
had not had single opportunity
while in prison to have private
talk with his wife. and that if he had
she never could have got such con-
viction.
The Judge before closing the ses-
sion of the court, confronted Hau re-
peatedly with the grave evidence
against him, but ne only elected re-
fusals in answer.

Orders to Shoot.

TOXIC, July 1.-THE emperor of
Korea has sent for Marquis Ito and
it is likely that he will receive the
marquis in audience this afternoon.
1t is believed that final decis-
ion on the request for the emperor's
abdication will be arrived at before
the ministers appear in body before
his majesty.
The report from Seoul, that the
emperor sought to seek refuge in a
country palace is unfounded, but it
is thought that the evidence goes to
show that the intriguers are at work.
1t is reported that the emperor has
privately ordered the palace guards
1UU strong, to shoot any suspicious
persons. and this is causing dismay
to those not concerned in the plot.

Unlawful Fishing.

Gamewarden Collins has received
several tips that will cost several
parties $50 each if caught redhanded,
and from the number of lawful fisher
men interested in catching the unlaw-
ful fellows, it is almost certain that a
number will be arrested before long.
The men who love to do little line
fishing once in a while are getting
more and more determined to put an
end to seine fishing along the river.
A man fishing with a seine is liable
to a fine of $50 or more, and it will
not pay to even run the risk Of escap-
ing the gamewarden or his deputies.
The LEADER gives this warning tc
all concerned hoping that it will have
the desired effect and save several
from heavy fines.
1t has now come down to test be-
tween lawful and unlawful fishermen,
and the boys with the law at Their
back are determined to punish every
violator of the law along the Sioux
on both sides of the river.

He Missed A Train.

A travelling man who rushed down
to the depot Friday morning to catch
the $50 train at $50 returned to the
hotel red in the face and furious. He
wanted to find good lawyer and sue
the company for starting ahead Of
time.
The genial McDermott looked at
the excited young man for moment
and then informed him that he was
mistaken about the train. Said the
Colonel without cracking smile,
"That train was twenty hours behind
time and was In hurry, hence your
suit against the company would
hardly stand" The young man
bought cigar and rested.

Political Circles Interested.

Sioux Falls Press: 1t is not unex-
pected, the excitement created in
political circles by the call of the
Roosevelt Republican league officers
for meeting of the league in Huron
during the state fair. The call is a
distinct challenge to the enemy to be
up and doing and the enemy is not
prepared to enter upon anything more
dramatic than the whispering tactics
of the peripatetic seeker after a con-
tinued term of office.
| Roosevelt is to be made the issue by
the league and as the other faction
has been shamming in its pretensions
for Taft. the disadvantage in the Sit
uation is clearly on it's side. 1t pre-
fers to proceed without demOnstra-
tion. under color of an accepted theo-
ry that it favors the cause of Mr..
Taft, that it may gain control of the
convention delegation and deliver it
to whomever the interests may select
as the candidate of the anti-adminis-
trat!on cabal.
The faction of the machine came
early upon the scene as the pretended
supporter of the candidacy of Mr..
Taft and while the progressive fac
tion could witness the nomination of
that gentleman with satisfaction, it
was maneuvered out of position by
the hypocritical pretensions of it's ene-
in
with movement inaugurated by the
machine that is entirely lacking in
sincerity
The progressive faction will there
fore nail the colors of Roosevelt to
the mast, preferring to go from him
to Taft, rather than from Taft to
Knox. Fairbanks or some other reac-
tionary, should the emergency arise.
The league meeting at Huron is the
signal for the opening of campaign
based upon distinct issue with the
machine. 1t will find progressive re-
publicism fully prepared, while stall
wart republicanism is disorganized by
defeat and weakened by it's affiliation
with the corporation influences of the
state.
1t has not cared for test of
strength, for it knows that it is weak
in everything but the capacity to
make abstract claims in boasting
words. So it does not view with equa-
nimity the early preparations of the
party organization for an aggressive
movement that sharply draw the line
of demarcation between the contend
ing elements.
