REACHES THE CRISIS
PROCEEDINGS TODAY In TRIAL
OF LAND FRAUDS CASE.

crisis was reached today in the trial
OF Messrs. Hyde. Benson. Dimond and
Schneider before Justice Stafford in Grim
inal Court No. on charge of conspiracy
to defraud the government of valuable
public lands I'm California and Oregon.
when the defense raised objection to the
formal admission of certain anonymous
letters claimed to have been written
by Mr.. Dimond. The attorneys for both
sides squared off for legal battle. which
may result either in the sudden termna
ton of the trial or else a strengthening
of the governments position before the
jury so that it may have a logically con-
nected case to present when the time
comes for final argument.
Nearly all of this week has been de-
voted by United States Attorney Baker
ton on which they might lay the letters
and this chain of preparatory evidence
was completed yesterday when j. r.
Shearman. an expert in handwriting and
In typewriting. testified it is his opinion
that one or more of the pen-p-inted let
ters show peculiarities of Mr. Dimond's
handwriting and. further that 1t is his
belief that others of the anonymous let
tiers had been written on one particular
typewriter owned by Mr.. Dimond. Mr..
ments of portions of all the letters TO
show the methods of analysis by which
he reached his conclusions.
Jury Excused Pending Arguments.
The arguments for and against the
exclusion of the letters were begun yes
terday afternoon and continued this
morning. the jury being excused until
the questions at issue are determined
by Justice Stafford. Attorney Campbell.
for Mr.. Benson. opposed the typewrit-
ten letters, and he gave an analysis of
both the testimony of Mr.. Sherman
and of the letters themselves to uphold
his contentious. Attorney Worthington
for Mr.. Hyde, and Attorney Wander
Neer. for Mr.. Dimond. and Attorney
Birney, for Mr.. Benson. combated the
documentary evidence on other grounds.
United States Attorney Baker and AS
sistant Attorney General Pugh spoke on
behalf of the government and cited
presidents for the admission of such
evidence. The arguments had not been
concluded by the time the noon recess
was taken, and the jury will be ex-
cluded from the court probably most of
this afternoon.

Wells-Thorpe

Miss Cora Edna Wells, daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Fl. Wells, and
Captain George Cyrus Thorpe, son of
G.. G. Thorpe, formerly of Hancock
but now of Northfield, were married
on Monday, April 9Th, at the Fifth
Avenue Presbyterian church in the
City of New York. Captain Thorpe is
in the United States Marine Corps,
and was able to obtain only two
weeks leave of absence, SO it was
necessary to have the marriage
solemnized in New York. The cap
tain has been stationed at Manzanillo,
Cuba, and returned there with his
bride. Mrs. Fl. FL. Wells attended
the wedding.
Neither of the contracting parties
need any introduction to the people
of this community. The bride grew
to womanhood here in Morris, grad
uated from the local high school, and
later from Ann Arbor, and by a large
circle of friends is regarded as a
woman of exceptional ability and
charming manner. The groom grew
to manhood in the village of Hancock
later attended West Point, and since
'98 has been in the Marine service,
where he has already risen to the
position of captain, and has bright
future for further advancement.
Many friends extend congratula-
tions and best wishes to Capt. and
Mrs. Thorpe.
