TRIAL OF FRYE ON
GAMBLING CASE
p.cls Room of Saloon Where Alleged
Gambling Occurred Leased
To Others.

OGDEN, Dec. 1.-The trial of George
FRYE, proprietor of the Globe saloon
on Twenty fourth street, charged with
rccping a room in which gambling was
allowed. was taken up Tuesday morn
ing The defense endeavored to show
nv the testimony of witnesses that
1ir. FRYE did not have charge of the
nom In which the alleged gambling
was carried on. The room was rented
by william Moycs. who has charge OF
walter Griffin, proprietor of the Lone
star barber shop. Griffin testified that
fhe room. although a part OF his lease.
had but one entrance and that was
through the rear end of the Globe
saloon The room in question was sub
let 10 BILLY" Jordan several months
ago. and that Jordan paid the rent up
N Sept 30. Frye, the witness declared,
raid the rent for Jordan the following
month. but stated at the time that he
bad no use for the room. The rent
for November has not been paid on the
room. and Griffin testified that the
porter OF the barber shop kept the key.
The fact that the room where the
gambling game was raided by the po-
lice has but one door. which leads
into the Globe saloon. has led to the
assumption that it was under the con-
troll of the proprietor, George Frye
Tho latter denies this, and so does
Griffin.
The city has thus far been unable to
prove that Frye had charge of the room,
although access to it can not be had
except through his saloon. but other
Witnesses have been summoned to ap-
pear in court today.
