ed to secure a jury In the trial of
Frederick A. Hyde, John A. Benson
Henry F. Dimond and J. H SCHNEIDER
charged with eonspirey to defraud
the governmental large areas of val
liable land in the west. The case is
regarded as of great importance in
view of the effect the verdict will
have on the title to the land patents
for the most of these are now held up
in the interior department awaiting
the outcome of the trial.
In view of this, for the first time in
the history of local courts, Justice
Stafford has decided that the jury
shall be locked up and be kept in
charge of deputy marshals from the
time It Is selected until the verdict is
rendered the same as if the case were
capital one and the verdict were
the death penalty.
The trial will take about two
months and talesmen are resorting to
every possible excuse to evade service
One hundred and one talesmen have
been examined and II men are now
in the box and quartered in the court
house. The case went over until
Monday when the work of complet-
ing the jury will be resumed.
