HIS STATEMENT.

san Francisco, March e.---Abraham
Reuf. who was taken into custody

sy, assisted by Detective Burns Of the
district attorneys office and who Is be-
Ing held under arrest az the vi. FRANCIS
hotel. will not be brought into Super
Tor Judge Dnnne's court for trial until
Monday morning. Until that hour Rig
gy VIII be responsible TO the court for
his safe keeping.
II Is anticipated by the prosecution
that Reuf, through his attorneys.
Messrs Shortridge, Act, Fairail and
Murphy will TO-DAY apply to one OF the
higher courts for writ of habeas
corpus.
The state supreme court has not YET
rendered It's decision In the application
of Neuf's counsel for a writ OF prohihi-
tion restraining Judge Dunne FROM pro-
eeading with the trial OF their client.
An identical writ WAS denied by the dis
trict court of appeal
Abraham Reuf has issued a state-
nient In which he says;
When the case was ended In Judge
Hebards court last Monday and by the
writ of error put into the supreme
court Of the United States, knowing
that Judge Dunno had no further juris-
diction Of the proceedings, / thought I
would take Il rest for three or four days.
ut never was my Intention 10
evade any process of the court or TO
escape from the jurisdiction of the
court or leave the city.
II never left the city, nor Will do so.
MY reason for taking the case 10 the
supreme court Of the United States, was
that 1 had been advised that Judge
Dunno had practically contracted 10
pack Jury in the case which was to he
heard before him.
II am willing 10 be tried upon this in
famous charge, of which / am not gull

jury I do not propose, If 1t Is possible
10 avoid 1t. 10 go up against a stuck
jury and preJudlced Judge"

spanish Fork, March s.--The principal
Eoplc of conversation heard on the
streets OF Spanish Fork at the present
time IS the question as to whether or
rot the Utah Sugar Co. will operate its

port to a meeting of farmers. held on

IN tho proposition to release the sugar
company from the necessity OF operat-
ng It's cutting station here IN case the
Arlners were released from their con-
facts. One hundred and twelve voted
n favor of tho proposition. and two
against IT.
This, however, does not settle the
natter. The sugar company has con-
racts with 22o farmers who agreed To
JTow certain amount OF beets for a
lsrIn OF five years. In consideration OF
