husk their corn crop find that in many
of the fields where the stalks are lay

worm has been at work on the joints
of the stalk and has eaten it practically
in pieces, thus deadening the stalk and
Stunning the corn. Much of the corn
has been down for two or three weeks
on account of the recent hard winds
and fall storms. 1t is said that in some
localities nearly half the crop is on
the ground and the stalks are damaged
by these worms. Even the best fields

pected earlier in the season.

Council Bluffs, Oct. 29.-The various
men recently indicted and since ar
rested on charges growing out of the
Nabray swindles, are straining every
nerve to resist being brought to Coun-
Gil Bluffs until after the trial of j. c.
Mabray. That they either want to make
Mabray scapegoat or desire to have
him put thru the mill first as a sort of
try out, is believed to be the hopes of
these men. No possible step that can
be taken to prevent being brought here
now or before Mabray is called into
court in December, is being overlooked
by these men.
Russell B. Herriman, Frank w.
Brown and Edward c. Moore, the trio
who were arrested in California and
who are looked upon as leading mem-
bers of the Mabray gang, are making
the most determined fight in San Fran
cisco to prevent their removal to Coun-
Gil Bluffs for trial. One of their friends
mas animated that the result of Ma
bray's trial is looked forward to as i'm
dlcating, to large degree, the pun
lshment they may expect. 1t is also
reported that Mabray's associates hope
that after Mabray's case is disposed Of
they may be given an opportunity to
piead guilty and escape with light
sentence
This is in accordance with adyices
received by Postoffice Inspector j. c.
Swenson from San Francisco, where
HERMAN and his two associates have
declared they will fight extradition as
long as they have breath left or until
the courts of California call an end to
their efforts. Mr.. Swenson said, how
ever, that there was little possibility
that the prisoners could delay their re-
moVal to Council Bluffs beyond the
time set for Mabray's trial. He said
he thought the removal would soon be
ordered and the men would. be brought
here. The hearing of Herriman, Brown
and Moore was to have been held in
Frisco yesterday, but a telegram ito Mr..
Swenson says that postponement was
secured by the accused men to Nov. 1.
Mr.. Swenson has just returned from
a trip to Chicago and other places,
called in connection with the Mabray
cases. In Chicago he attended the
hearing of the Forbes brothers, charged
with being implicated in Mabray's ope-
rations in Council Bluffs and Omaha
Both men gave bond there for their APP
pearence in this city on Dec. z, their
bonds being fixed at $4,000 each.
In Streator, ILL.,, the hearing of J.
Smith, an Nex-justice of the peace
charged with steering James Tierney
of Streater, against swindle at New
Orleans. was set for yesterday, but In
spector Swenson said that Smith was
making q desperate resistance to re-
n1oval to Council Bluffs and he thought
another continuance Of the hearing not
unlikely.
