CHARGE NOTARY
WITH FRAUD
Judge Witten Has Warrant
Issued for A. Grant
ham.

Suspecting that A. Grantham, who
was one of the notaries authorized to
receive and certify to applications for
and in the Occur d'Alene Indian res
eryation during the registration, was
continuing to receive and certify to
applications after the registration
had come to a close on August 5, SUI
perintendent James w. Witten di-
rected his secret service men to
watch his movements, and today pre-
ferred complaint against him in the
probate court, charging him with the
making OF false certificate BY q
public officer" Grantham made his
appearance in the probate court this
afternoon and pleaded not guilty to
the charge. His bond was fixed at
500, but he had not furnished it at
a late hour in the afternoon.
Trapped by Secret Service Men.
Judge Witten had for several days
suspt csed that Grantham's notarial
work was not altogether legitimate,
and with the view OF bringing about
hi, apprehension he turned the case
over TO one of the secret service men
stationed here during he registra-
ton. The secret sci vice man APP
peared before Grantham this morn
ing at 10 o'clock and represented
that he wanted to register as agent
for an old soldier by the name Of
Frank Wilcox at Fairfield. Neb.. and
the acknowledgment, SO it is alleged,
was taken by Grantham and dated
as. Of August 5 The application, to-
gether with the other papers, were
then turned over to Judge Witten,
and after consultation with Prose
cutting Attorney Potts with relation
to the matter. he preferred the above
complaint against Grantham.
The offense Is misdemeanor
under the state laws. and the case
win be heard Monday morning at 10
o'clock.
MI Grantham, when seen with re-
lation to the subject, stated he was
innocent, but would not discuss ii
further than that.

The city council held d special
meeting last night for the purpose OF
considering what should be done
with the temporary buildings con-
structed to accommodate the notaries

the notaries appeared before the
council and asked, in view OF the fact
that the drawing will be held all OF

week, that they be permitted to re-
main, as there will be considerable
of crowd in attendance and the

useful purposes. The council, after

BLAMES COMPANY
AND TRAINMEN
CorOner's Jury Finds Violation Of
Rules Was Cause Of Wreck

We find that the said collision
was caused by the running of the
special motor No. out Of the Occur
d'Alene yards without orders on the
time OF the regular train No. 20 from
Spokane; BY the failure Of the con-
ductor and motorman on said No. 5
to register out as required BY the
rules and BY the failure OF the COM
pany to stop the practice OF allowing
the conductor to register for the mo-
torman. and In not requiring the
brakeman to be informed Of the con-
tents Of the orders.
That was the verdict Of the cor
oner's jury as to the cause OF the
collision after deciding that ffteen
people lost their lives In the wreck
and making an enumeration Of them
as identified. The evidence at the
Inquest was concluded at late hour
and after the case went into the
hands Of the jury 1t was not until
after an hours elaboration over the
testimony adduced that verdict was
returned.
Whitlesey Testimony.
The most important witness to
take the stand after the examination
Of Assistant Trainmaster Cook had
been completed was Conductor Whit
leseys who was on the Inflated train
with Motorman Campbell His evil
dence In brief was that he had re-
ceived the orders from Spokane that
the train should 90 ont as a special,
had given them to Campbell and adj
yised him that regular train No. 20
had not arrived. He testified that he
told him that il would be met at the
"Y, : and then the train departed
and he commenced the work OF coll
lecting the tickets, and while en-
gagged in this labor he heard the air
brakes applied and then, in almost
an instant. the collision came.
Train in Good Condition.
Brakeman Truesdal was the next
witness and testified that he had
asked Campbell where he planned to
meet regular train No. 20, but that
he did not reply and that just then
the train started out. win ID. Bur
dick, master mechanic of the com
pany testified that he had made an
inspection of motor No. before its
departure and that he had found II
in good condition.
e. J. Roberts. superintendent Of
the Spokane International railroad
testified that the rules and regula.
tions of the Inland Railroad company
were the same as those in effect b,
other railroad companies. Two eye
witnesses TO the collision also testi
fed. They were Charles Pearson, O.
Lacrosse. and Mrs. e. A. Michaelson
OF the same place The former testi
| fed that in his opinion the special a
the time was travelling at the rate o
twenty miles an hour. and the lat
| ter's testimony with relation to tn
special was the same and she testi
fed that the regular train ha,
slowed down.

RESTITUTION
NO DEFENSE
EmbezzIing Oakland (CaIifOr-
nia) Attorney to Be Pros
Cuted Off His Illegal
Transactions.
UNITED Pnnss LnAsnp wIRn.1

Oakland. Cal, Oct. 14.-When
Attorney John Delaney comes to
trial Monday, charged with embez-
zling $4,000 from the estate of
George Hite Cook, his principal line
of defense probably will be the fact
that he has Just refunded $35,142
due on his accounts with the public
administrator.
Delaney was indicted two months
ago when II was discovered that the
estates under the charge of the pub
lie administrator of Alameda we're
being pillaged by attaches OF the of
fee, under the guise OF fees, and by
open forgeries. Delaney, IL is al
legged. was one of those engaged in
gaining illegal riches, and he, with
others. was indicted.
Notwithstanding that Delaney
has made restitution, the district
attorney declared that the case will
proceed on Monday exactly as plan
ned, and that the young attorney
will be prosecuted as vigorously as
though the money was still unpaid

The hens are entirely exempt, and
safe from the gunners, according to
the new game law, and hunters will
find It no easy matter to get the linn
tied number of roosters, as they are
considered more willy and difflcul,
to approach than the hens. Then,
too, the average number of birds in
the valley has diminished greatly in
the past year. The heavy snow and
cold weather prevailing for three
weeks last winter proved disastrous
for china pheasants, and many hum
dreds were found lying dead in diff
ferent localities. The Bob White
quail and the California blue quail
are also a very scarce game bird this
season, but the grouse and bush
pteasants are more numerous than
they have been for the past two
years.

with the number issued for the same
