The Territorial Grand Jury this

Heights something like six years ago.

$12, 900 was mysteriously burned down.

Many Of the laborers of the road
department are finding it hard to get
along without cash, and yet they can
not quit work when they expect their

SOME STRANGE
USES and MISUSES
OF IMMUNITY
ANOTHER INDICTMENT RETURN
ED YESTERDAY IN THE
STOLEN FURS CASE.

The grand jury yesterday after
noon returned an indictment against
Aeria Lorimer, charging her with re-
ceiving stolen goods. She was ar
raigned last evening and admitted to
bail for the amount of $500.
She is charged with receiving the
furs stolen from one May Bowman
over year ago, and the indictment
is the fifth to be returned in connec-
tion with the case The first two to
be brought were against Hoyt p.
Odds and Roy Williamson, who were
charged with grand larceny. William
son, or Wrinkles" as he is known,
confessed to the crime and stated
that Olds was an accessory. However,
both were given immunity by the dis
trict attorney and the indictments
against them were quashed. Follow
Y ing this Charles Miller was arrested
on the charge of receiving the stolen
lul ., III law vi LuS ldCI LAdl LAC COA-
fession of Wrinkles showed plainly
that he had nothing to do with the
matter. Several days later Ed Uren
was indicted on the same charge.
When the grand jury first started
to investigate the matter, Aeria Lori
mer was called by Assistant District
Attorney j. H. Morris as a witness,
but she refused to testify on the
grounds of discriminating herself. She
was then promised immunity by the
assistant, who stated that he would
also have the grand jury make the
same promise. This was made in the
presence of her attorney and another
witness. At that time District Attor-
ney Cleve H. Baker was absent in
San Francisco On his return he
stated that whatever agreement his
assistant had made was agreeable to
him. But several days later he
sought out Miss Lorimer's legal rep
resentatives and stated that he was
not able to abide by the agreement
and repudiated the compact. This
was after Miss Lorimer had testified
However, her testimony did not seem
to please the district attorneys of
flee for it Is stated that shortly after
the statement was made that she had
lied because her testimony did not
seem to be against certain party
who appears to be the fall guy of the
entire proceedings.
The proceedings have a queer ap
pearance, for instead of the guilty
persons being prosecuted, they are
granted immunity and those remotely
or having no connection with the case
are being prosecuted. Williamson
confessed that Miller had nothing tt
do whatsoever with the matter ant
then in few days an indictment il
returned against Miller.
Williamson said that Odds accom-
panied him to the room of the Bow
man woman when he stole the furs
and then both Williamson and Old
are turned loose under the immunit!
clause. Strange, very strange.
There is still one more chance fol
another Indictment, for the last per
ION who handled the furs in question
and who has escaped being charged
with receiving stolen goods, is col
bred porter who shipped them bacl
EAST at the request Of another. How
he has escaped the clutches of thu
law is mystery, but it is probabl,
hat the immunity joke has agail
,een used.
