Eight Days Of Testimony in Mabray
Case by Prosecution.
| Council Bluffs, March 1S-At 4:30
after eight days of q steady grind OF
testimony, the government rested its
case aga inst John iC. Mabray and many
others, charged with conspiring to use
the United States mails in furtheranee
of the operations of the big Store"
game, which. it is charged, the defend
ants conducted in various cities thru
out the country.
After brief conference between the
court and the attorneys, Judge Nc
PhersOn announced that an evening
session would be held. The attorneys
for the defendant presented a motion
at the evening session for a directed
verdict of acquittal of all defendants.
The motion was overruled, but the rul-
ing may be reconsidered in the case of
r. E. L. Goddard. A verdict of acquit-
tai was directed in the. case of j. H.
Beath, one sof the steerers.
In a letter which came into the hands
of United States Marshall Frank Clark
Thursday. ANEW victim, who believes
John c. Nabray, chief defendant in the
case now being tried i'll the United
States district court, was the man who
is J. J. FLEMING of Rexford, Kan. He
tells of his own undoing in the letter.
which was thru some misunderstand-
ing. addressed to the county clerk Of
Mills county, at Glenwood, Iowa. Flem-
ing claims to have dropped $4,000 on
a "snide' boxing contest in Denver. He
says:
81 see by the papers you have John
c. Mabray. think he is the same fell
low that beat me out of $4,000 on a
snide boxing contest in Denver, with
the assistance of a couple of my friends
whom he had bribed.'
Fleming says he is anxious to be of
assistance to the government in the
prosecution of Mabray and offers to
come to Council Bluffs to see if he can
identify Mabray. He will not be sent
for, as the governments case is about
concluded The officials are inclined to
believe him mistaken as to Mabray, as
the latter did not work at the Denver
store
Fleming's letter is the first disclosure
of his swindling. He does not give the
date when he was victimized.

IN Charge of the convention
DR.. Yoacum contends that he uses
nothing by way of mental suggestion
to aid In the effect of cures and that
the afflicted can be cured, either be-
lieving or by not believing, or by not
being present at this meeting.
To assure to the public that this can
be done he ashked the members of the
convention this morning to think of one
afflicted person, write on a piece of
white paper the name of his affliction
and not his name and by prayer of the
elders that person will be healed
AS a trial of the faith of the afflicted
who place themselves under the in
struction of DR.. Yoacum, he COM
manded the cripples to lay aside their
clutches and canes and make an effort
at least to walk unassisted. Several
were willing to do this and haltingly
