Council Bluffs
Mabray and His Men
Not to be Prosecuted
in the District Court
Board Of Supervisors Orders County
Attorney to Dismiss All Charges
Now Pending.


Although twenty indictments have been
returned against J. G. Mahray and several
each against-about fifty Of his confederates
in the vicinity Of Council Bluffs. none OF
them will be prosecuted in the district
court
The question whether the cases in the
state courts should be pushed has been
under consideration for several months and
County Attorney Capeu. while standing
ready fully TO discharge his duty and
vigorously prosecute the cases II the oppor-
tunity was given him. has sought the ad-
vice Of judges, lawyers and citizens. The
advice has been conflicting and unsatis-
factory, but the conversations have sue
ceeded in giving wide circulation TO the
estimate Of a bill Of couN costs approx
mating not less than $4,000 which the ta1-
payers Of the county would have TO foot
This. coupled with the further fact that
there is Widespread sentiment asserting
that Council Bluffs has had all the motor
iety IN connection with Colonel Mabray 1t
desires, and considerable more, led TO the
development Of a preponderence Of public
sentiment against the prosecution.
AT least. this is the view OF the matter
taken By the Board Of County Supervisors
yesterday afternoon when the members
passed a resolution instructing the county
attorney to dismiss all Of the suits
The general feeling was that prosecution
OF the casNs would bankrupt the county,
and this expression was used by scores
whose advice was sought. Unless the
action Of the board arouses a stronger con-
trary sentiment County Attorney Capell
Will follow instruction and dismiss ali OF
the cases except those started in the state
courts against Dobson and others. These
will be pushed.

Expense of Guaranty Law,

Governor Aldrich has prepared a

tion in regard to the needs of the
state banking board to enforce the
guaranty OF deposits act. The COVER
nor will ask for twelve state bank eX.
aminers instead of the FIVE or six now
on duty. The salaries and expenses of
the twelve examiners will reach $685.
900 a year. If the legislature amends
the law so as to eliminate that part
which requires examiners to verify
notes and other assets in banks, eight
or nine examiners will be able to do
the work.
