THREAT OVERHEARD:
ROY GALE ARRESTED
When Searched, Ii Was Found
That He Was Carrying
Two RevoIverS.
A FINE WAS ASSESSED.
THAT HE MEANT TO KILL HIS
GIRL AND THEN TO SHOOT
HIMSELF.

The threat that he would kill his
girl and then kill himself. overheard
by a neighbor who reported the mat
ter to police headquarters. was the
Gale Monday night near twelve
o'clock on the charge of carrying con-
cealed weapons. Last Thursday
neighbor residing near the Gale home.
116 North Sixth street, stated that he
heard the young man tell his grand
mother. with whom he lives, that he
intended TO go kill his girl and then
ed this to the police and Chief of
Police Bailey asked the patrolmen TO
search Gale when they found him, to
see if he carried any deadly weapons.
About midnight Patrolman Yingling
heard that Gale was carrying a young
arsenal with him, and on seeing the
young man searched him and found
two thirty-eight caliber revolvers.
One of these irons was of typical
western variety, while the other was
short.
In police court Gale stated that at
the time of his arrest neither of the
guns contained cylinders, but never
theless he was assessed a fine of 50
and costs, which he paid. Yingling
stated that one of the revolvers con-
tanned no cylinder but the other did.
Cartridges were in both cylinders.
Gale was much excited when he
faced the court, and feared as he said
verdict which would send him
back to that old cold Jail again" The
young man has never been in trouble
of any kind before and for that rea-
son the fine was not as heavy as
might have been meted out

As His Security.
TRIAL SET FOR OCTOBER l.
AT THAT TIME GEORGE A. PET
TIBONE WILL GET A HEARING
ON THE CHARGES BROUGHT
AGAINST HIM.

Boise. Idaho, July 30.-Charles II.
Meyer, president of the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners and co-defendant
with William d. Haywood, acquitted
of the murder of former Governor
Steunenberg, was ordered released on
s25,000 bali by Judge Wood who pre-
sided at the Haywood trial. The at
torneys for the federation expected to
have the bond ready for filling last
night. but the arrangements had not
been wholly completed at late hour
and Meyer resigned himself to anoth-
er night in jail.
No application for bail was made in
the case of George A. Pettibone. the
third of the alleged conspirators, but
a motion was made for a speedy trial
and his case was ordered set down for
Tuesday, Oct. 1. Counsel intimated
that they might apply for bond for
Pettibone later, but it is not believed
that the states attorney will consent.
1t has been generally claimed that the
state has more incriminating evidence
against Pettibone than any of the
others, while it has been generally
conceded that the case against Mover
is the weakest of the three The de-
fense in the Haywood case admitted
that there was number of things
for Mr.. Pettibone to explain as to his
association with Harry Orchard and
the sending of money to him, but they
said it would be time enough to deaf
with these matters when Pettibone
himself was placed on trial. Haywood
continues to receive many congratu-
latory kilograms from all sections of
the country.
Aside from the personal congratula-
tions of the senders the messages
have nearly all expressed the senti-
ment that labor has triumphed over
the oppressive measures of capital"
