TRIAL OF GUSTALD|
ENDS UNEXPECTEDLY
Judge Powers Discovers Court
Has No Jurisdiction t6
Try the Slayer.

NEPHI. June S.-The trial of Fl.
Gustaldi for the killing Of ". Fl. Palmer
took a rather unexpected turn. especially
TO the prosecution. this morning. The
jury had just been secured the night be-
fore aud the district attorney made his
opening statement and had the first wit
ness sworn. when Judge Powers objected
20 any testimony being introduced In
the case on the ground that the court
was without Jurisdiction. and in support
of his motion he showed that the ste
nographer who had reported and tran
scrioed the case had not been appointed,
at least there was no record in the JUS
tees docket TO the effect. He stated
that In cases OF this kind the statutes
required the testimony either tc be taken
by a stenographer or by the justice In
the form OF dispositions. The court was
compelled to sustain the objection.
Judge Powers then requested the
court to instruct the jury TO return u
verdict OF not guilty This motion. how
ever, was refused by the court. because,
As the court stated il he had. no iuris
dction in the case he had no right to
instruct the jury to bring in verdict.
SO the jury was discharged. Powers
took exception TO the latter motion
being overrued and will take 1t TO the
supreme court.

terry connected with the finding Of the
two dynamite bombs under the stair

day morning. nothing tangible has been
oblaind TO throw any light on why the
plant" was placed in the ceilar-way
or the identity of the person responsible
for its presence there.
Detectives have never considered the
theory that the dynamite had been
placed there 10 blow UP the store, but
are working on the theory that 1t was
left there by someone who had intended

The clothing and shoes found with the
