ALLEGED DYNAM|TERS
SCORE A VICTORY

Los Angeles, July 3.-Superior
Judge Willis today quashed the in
dictments against Connors Bender
and Maple, who were charged with
having attempted to dynamite the
Hall of Records building.
The prosecution says the decision
will only delay the mems trial one
week as new indictments will be
brought.
Judge Willis says that Section 907,
of the penal code of California. was
not compiled early enough, in the
proceedings before the grand jury,
to insure the accused men of their
rights. The section provides that the
foreman of the jury must instruct
biased jurymen to retire from the de-
liberatiOns.
Attorneys Darrow, Davis and Scott
for the defendants, were greatly
pleased. They will Immediately at
tempt to have their clients bail of
$4,000 each, reduced.

MABEL WARNER SITS
BEFORE JUDGE AGAIN

' The circuit court room today is
again resounding with echoes of the
famous Mable Warner case as the de-
clared heirs make an attempt to
oust her from the land to which the
supreme court recently held she had
no legal title. The suit is for the
application of a receiver and for the
continuing OF an injunction and is
being heard by Judge Knowles of La
Grande sitting for Judge Phelps who
was interested in the case at the
time he was district attorney.
The injunction in question was
made several years ago but has been
ignored for, in spite of it, Mrs. War
ner and her husband have been liv-
ing on the land. out now that the
heirs have won out in the case and,
inasmuch as there is a crop on the
land, an attempt is being made to en-
force the restraining order.
1t is alleged in the complaint that
just before the supreme court handed
down its decision, George Ness took
mortgage on the crop which mort
gage the plaintiffs declare illegal and
ask that it be so declared.
While Judge James a. Fee for the
plaintiffs read the complaint which
specifically alleges many acts of fraud
| on the part of Mrs. Warner in the
past and which expresses fear that
| other similar frauds will be executed
by her unless she is given a rebuff
by the law. the defendant sat in tn,
court room laughing quietly as if en-
joying hugely this last battle of hei
| long fight.

to Thorough Indignation.

From an experience or two young
ladies of the city, it seems that there
is another Jack the Grabber" abroad
in the city or perhaps creature with
more fiendish purposes than that of
merely frightening women. Miss
Sarah Doherty and Miss Mary Laf-
ferty are the young ladies in question
and their experience happened Satur-
day night about 1920 o'clock. While
waiting for a freight train to pass an
the east end Of Court street, the for
mer was seized from behind by man,
thrown to the ground and an attempt
made at criminal assault, which was
only frustrated by the screams of the
two girls.
The two young ladies We're on their
way home when the train came along
and they stopped to allow it to pass.
Under cover of the noise of the train.
a man approached from behind and
without any warning seized Miss Do
herty about the knees. threw her to
the ground and fell on top of her.
The young lady fought and screamed,
while her companion, hgsterical from
fright, rushed into the road and sent
scream after scream into the night.
When the train had passed, the as
sailant, evidently fearing that the
screams had attracted notice, sudden
ly released the girl and fled.
The screams Of the young ladies
We're heard by a number of people
| but were thought To rc,ne from chill
dren on the streets. When the man
fled into the darkness, the young la
dies rushed down the street to the
residence of John Mullaly. who is
relative of both. They told their story
and the officers were notified.
Clcw Is Secured.
Sheriff Taylor has been working
upon a well defined clew and may be
able to capture the fiend >who made
the attack Councilman John Dyer,
for whom Miss Doherty is working,
and Il friend We're several blocks
and when they neared the railroad
track noticed some very suspicious
looking hoboes.
Public sentiment has been aroused
by the attack and there is some talk
of offering a reward for the capture
of the assailant.
Both Miss Doherty and Miss Laf-
ferty have been in Pendleton about a
year and both came directly from
Ireland, their native land. The for
mer has been working at the Dyer
home for SOME time and the latter
