and Searched For Weapons.
Terre Haute, Ind, March 16.-Spec-
tators were locked in the court room
at the opening today at the trial OF
Mayor Denn NJ Roberts. on charges OF
conspiracy to corrupt elections. All
were searched for weapons. az they
entered the court room. These extra
ordinary precautions resulted from
threats which the judges and prosecut-
ing attorneys said reached them last
week. The governor refused a request
to send state troops to guard the court
room. There were rumors that Roberts
synpathizers had planned to rush the
court unless the case against him were
dismissed.
First proceedings in the case con-
sisted Of arguments on motion to
quash the indictments. The motion
was similar to that made in the trial
three weeks ago Of William Huffman.
Then the attempt to quash was over
ruled ana Huffman was convicted and
sentenced to serve three to ten years
IN the state prison.
