MARTIN HeBEH CONVICTED
Jury Finds Bingham Man Guilty of
Statutory 0ffense Against
SEdna Thomas.

Martin f. Hoben was yesterday found
guilty OF a statutory offense against
Edna Thomas by a jury in Judge Arm
strong's court
The case has attracted considerable at
tention. Hoben is well known here and
for some time has been conducting d
newspaper at Bingham. The girl is also
from that town.
The information was filed over a year
ago and several continuances have been
had. The information charged that the
crime was committed on or about April
J. 1906. but at the time the girl was over
the age of consent, and if no other pre-
Vious date could be proved Hoben could
have been convicted only of a mtsde-
meanor. At the preliminary hearing a
year ago she stated that she was born
Nov 81, 1888, which would have made her
under Is on April /. 1906. At the trial she
stated that she had lied at the prelimi-
nary hearing and that she was born Nov
81 1887, making her over is on April l.
1906 Hhe state, however, succeeded in
securing evidence that Hoben had been
intimate with her as early as Nov. l. 1906,
and II was upon this evidence that the
conviction was had.
When the jury returned the verdict yes
terday she entered the room and, with
tears in her eyes. thanked each juror as
he passed out. The jury was out only
forty minutes.
Harry ]. Robinson, attorney for the
defendant, said that he will move for 4
new trial. and will appeal to the supreme
court IL IL is denied.

GABLE MUST PAY COSTS
Judge Morse Finds Him Guilty of
Technical Contempt in Want
lands Suit.

Judge Morse of the district court yes
terday found c. E. Gable guilty of tech
meal contempt" in refusing to answer
questions put to him at hearing before
Dana T. Smith, and directed that he pay
the costs Of the contempt proceedings.
The trouble is simply an incident in the
suit brought by w. W. Mainland against
the Pittsburg- Salt Lake Oil company, c.
E. Gable, E T. Brockman, A. V. Taylor
and ]. H Richards. Wantland is suing
TO have transferred to him certain stock
in the company which he claims to own
and Judge Morse last November appoint
ed Dana 7. Smith to take testimony in
the case. A hearing was held on Nov.
q and Gable was asked certain questions
which he refused to answer. Contempt
proceedings were begun immediately but
there appears to have been an agreement
that the disposition of the case should be
postponed until Gable returned from an
eastern trip.
The arguments of the lawyers before
Judge Morse yesterday took up the en-
tire morning. The judge refused to con-
slider the agreements which had been
made at various times between the par
ties interested and stated that the evil
dence showed that Gable has refused to
answer questions on the advice of coun-
sci and that as a matter of law he was
guilty of technical contempt"
