SUPREME COURT ASKED
TO PASS ON QUESTION
Action Is Brought to Determine
Point Raised Upon In
formations.
@pecial to The Tribune.


OGDEN, April 24.-The latest echo
of the cases of robbery which were filed
several weeks ago against B. L. Bran
lett, Il. c. Mcclure and John X Gar
rett. pYoprictors Of the Apex saloon, is
an action which has been started IN
tho supreme court of Utah by District
Attorney n. j. Harris against the dis
trict court of Weber county and Judge
], A. Howell of that court, in which the
district attorney seeks to obtain an or
der from the higher tribunal to rein
state the cases on the criminal docket
of this county,
1t will be recalled that the defend
ants were given a preliminary hearing
before Judge Murphy of the. police
court who ordered them held for trial
in the district court. The district at
torney afterward fled the formal infor-
nation charging the defendants with
the robbery Of an old man named Con
at the Apex saloon December IL, 1908.
From the information the usual state
ment of the time and place of the com
mission Of the alleged crime was IN
advcrten.lv omitted by the district at
torney. Subsequently, the district at
tornev disn ed the action against the
three defendants and fled an amended
information charging the same ofense
and including the necessary statements
Of facts omitted from the first informa"
ton.
Recently, on motion of Judge ". l..
Maginnis. representing the defendants,
.his amended information was stricken
from the records of the court and the
defendants discharged. The district at
torney will take the position that it
was the duty of District Judge Howell
to proceed with the trial of the cases
on the amended information, which the
court declined to do, claiming that the
amended information could not be le-
eally fled, nor the defendants legally
required to plead until another prelim-
mary hearing is had before Judge Muir
pbv of the police court.
The disposition of these cases will be
watched with considerable interest by
many in this city. When the appeal is
heard in the supreme court, Attorneys
Halverson & Pratt will appear on be-
half of the district court and Judge
Howell, while the interests of the three
defendants will be looked after by W.
l.. Maginnis

money another man giving his name as
Charles G., Price called at the general
postoffice at Ogden and asked for mail.
Officers had been placed upon his trail,
but he escaped. Later he was arrested
and taken back 10 Portland.
Now The Charles G. Price bailing
from Ogden refuses TO give mp the
money. and hence the suit to recover
the same. After listening 10 the argu-
ments of Nh McCrea for the United
States and Mr.. Henderson for Price, on
the demurrer to the complaint, Judge
Marshall took the matter under advise
ment and court was adjourned until
