conferences with the President yester-
day. carrying with him data that will
be utilized in the forthcoming vetoes.
Notice, as further complication,
was served on the Senate yesterday
that under no circumstances would the
House agree to a continuation of the
tariff board. Provision for such con
tinuation had been placed by the Sen
ate in a number of appropriation and
tariff measures, but to each and every
such amendment the House has pre-
scented an unyielding front. Yesterday
Senate leaders were notified that their
insistence on that provision would de
lay adjournment. House conferees on
all the bills containing the Senate
amendment providing for the tariff

VAIL IS GIVEN
HIS LIBERTY
Accusation Of Diamond Theft
Not Substantiated by Wit.
neSSeS for State

Joseph Vail, who was charged
with the theft of $740 in diamonds
and money, from Charles Mason, a
brother guard at the state peniten
tiary, was given his preliminary hear
ing before Justice Pierce Thursday
! The trial occupied the attention OF
the court the entire day. At the con-
clusion of the Introduction of the tes-
timony Vail was given his liberty.
The evidence against VAIL was
damaging on first glance. When Mas
on first discovered the loss of his
Jewels, valued at $500 and $40 in
greenbacks, he notified the police. A
convict who was working on the floor
where Mason's room was stated that
he saw Vail coming from Mason's
room, and as result Mason caused
Wallis arrest. When the latter was
searched the gems were found in an
outside pocket of his coat. He dis
claimed any knowledge of how they
came there.
Witnesses who were called to in
eliminate VAIL told so many con-
fIicting stories, that their testimony
was worthless. Evidence pointed
very strongly to the fact that some
one who was really guilty had taken
the money and diamonds, kept the
cash and placed the diamonds in
Wallis pocket to throw suspicion on
him.
Vail comes from an excellent fam
lily residing at Battle Lake, Mime
sota His people are very we'll to
do, and he has two brothers who are
in the ministry. He was guard at
the penitntiary six vars ago, was lat
er guard at the hospital for the insane
at Jamestown, a MEMBER Of the Bis
marck police force, and few weeks
ago went back to the state prison as
guard. The case against LIN bore
the earmarks Of personal enmity OF
some one, and his many friends in
Bismarck and other sections of the
state are glad that the cloud Of sus-
picion which hung over his head has
raised.
Attorney George NJ. Register de.
