Attorney r. r. Mockler returned to
Bismarck on No. 6 Sunday morning
from Hettinger where he has h2en
called to assist in the defense OF
Denver Woods who was charged with
murder, and whose case was decided
by the Jury Saturday. Assistant At
1orney General Alfred Zuger also re-
turned on the same train. Mr.. Zuger
assisted in the prosecution OF the case
against Denver Woods.
This murder case. which aroused
SO much interest in the southwestern
part of the state. was one Of the hard
est fought legal battles that has oc'
CURED in North Dakota in years.
Judge Nuchols of Mandan presided
during the trial and although it was
his first experience with such an i'm
portant case, the attorneys for both
sides were especially warm in their
words of praise and commentator for
the excellent manner in which he offlc-
lated. Attorney Mockler OF this city.
while he was not altogether satisfied
with result of the trial, having hoped
for an acquttal was congratulated by
many who differed radically from
those who believed that Woods should
have been hung. Mr. Mockler IS
known as one Of the ablest criminal
lawyers in the entire Northwest, and
has gained considerable fame through
lis handling of the Peltier cases.
His next big trial will be that of the
State VS.. Laben Woods also charged
with murder. which will occur during
the October term of court at Hetting-

MODELS OF CHARLES DANA GLIB.
SON WITH Mr.. GILMORE
TONIGHT.

All admirers of the work of that
greatest of pen and ink artists, Chas.
Dana Gibson, will be very interested
to know that two of his principal mod
els are with Mr.. Paul Gilmore in "The
Mummy and the Humming Bird" at
the theatre tonight. Miss Elsa War
wick and Mr.. Henry Warkick have
posed for Mr.. Gibson since 1904 and
appear in many of his most famous
efforts such as An Apreciative Au-..
ience," "The Spirit of the Day." and
others too numerous to mention. Miss
Warwick says that the great artist
works very rapidly when feeling in
good trim, and when not chatting is
humming or half whistling under his
breath as he works, but on some occa.
sions shee after sheet Of paper fly in
the air as he fails to depict exactly
what he wants. In appearance he Is a
largely built man with a strong, clean
cut face with bright sharp eyes and is
possessed of an unusual fund Of subtle

case almost as large record will be
found.
Newspaper investigation.
The newspaper investigation that
was started is progressing slowly The
purpose of this investigation to the
preyent moment has been largely for
the purpose of determining upon the
legal status of the question-that is,
upon the powers of the court and OF its
duties in matters of this nature. Pre-
cedents have been established for &C.
ton upon the part of the court in the
investigation of newspaper reports,
California being one of the states in
which such precedent has been estab-
lished.
For some time rumors have been
afloat connecting the name of United
States Senator dronna with the case,
certain letters written by him of
which the connection is declared to
have been brought about, but very
little credence is given these reports.
Old Rate Case Brought In.
Since the connection of John Cowan.
as attorney general, with rate case
back in the 'nineties has been injected
into the record, there has been more
or less interest in such case. 1t was
back in about 1895 that Mr.. Cowan.
then attorney general of the state.
drew a bill which passed the house
without amendment and went to the
senate, which provided that authority
be granted the board OF railroad COM
missioners to determine upon the
classification of freights and fix the
tariffs. In its original form this bill
provided that such classificatiOns and
scedules should become effective from
the time they were published, GER
taininumber Of newspapers within the
state being designated to publish the
new classification and schedules pro-
posed. In the senate an amendment
was provided whereby notice was first
to be served upon the railroads Of
the states intention to publish such
tariff and schedule, this amendment
affording opportunity for action by the
railroads through the courts.
In the courts action was commenced
to restrain the state from publishing
such schedules and classifications,
based upon the theory that the rates
proposed were cohfiscatory, and in an
opinion by Judge Charles P. Amidon,
after a long fight, 1t was held that the
change in rates provided by the meas.
ure was too radical.

IN. d. They took issue with the State
claiming that the state had no right or
authority of law to file an amended
information in the county OF Adams,
as it was an official act on the part OF
the prosecuting attorney. and that
there were only two methods by which
a person could be arrested and brought
into district court. one by information
and the other by Indictment. but this
must be done in the county in which
the crime was alleged to have been
committed. The only case that was
found upon this question was a Mis-
souri, case, which was squarely in
point and held that upon change of
venue to different county the prose-
cutting attorney had no authority in
the new county to file an amended in
formation. This matter was overruled
by Judge Crawford. saying that the
laws of this state were more liberal
and granted greater powers to the
prosecuting attorney than did the
state of Missouri. The question was
raised, first by an objection to the FL
ing of the information, second. to set
it aside. and third, it was taken up
by way of demurrer; that the states
attorney had no authority of law to
inform against, prepare. or file, an
amended information in Adams coun.
ty. North Dakota, and also attacked
the jurisdiction of the court. The con.
tention of the defense was that if the
States attorney had no authority to
make the filing, that the court had no
jurisdiction to hear the case. Later
a motion was made for continuance
on theg rounds of surprise in that the
state was permitted to change the ma
ture of the crime as the last informa'
ton charged murder in the first de-
gree, and the former information was
defective, and the defendants set up
in their motion for continuance
that they had witnesses absent
who were enecessary to a fair trial
on the part of the defense. This
was overruled. Imediately there
after an affidavit was filed In
the Denver Woods case. which was
first called for trial, and Judge Craw-
ford was disqualified. as provided by
statute. He immediately called
Judge Nuchols, who presided during
the rest of the trial. Again upon the
case being called for trial the defen-
dants urged that the court had no
Jurisdiction to hear, try or determine
the issue in the case for the reasons
above stated. A jury was then en-
panelled and the case proceeded to
