CLAIM INDICTMENT ERROR.
Case Of Mrs. Nellie Staples Found
Guilty Of Numbering Day Old Babe
Will be Taken to Supreme Court
BEGINS TO SERVE SENTENCE

That the Indictment against Mrs
Nellie Staples, the II year old girl
who until a short time ago made Be.

ed of second degree manslaughter
will be brought before the state sup
rene court is claimed by her lawyer

victed of having killed her day old
babe and of having thrown it's body
in ravine near her home at ST.
Cloud, at which place she and her
husband nave lived since leaving Be
midi.
MI. Maybury claimed that the in
dictment was not legally correct and
that he. proposed to show that on
the face of it the woman was not
properly tried. There were two in
dictments returned, one charging
third degree murder and the other
second degree manslaughter.
According to the evidence, he said,
Mrs. Staples was not guilty of either
crime because of the fact that it was
not shown that there was an intent
to kill or an utter disregard for the
value of human life according to the
law as constituting either crime.
In the event that the contention OF
the defense on the indictment is not
upheld by the supreme court the
case will be taken before the SUI
p1.eme court on it's merits.
If the contention of the defense on
the indictment is upheld Mrs. Staples
will be freed and will not. be submit
ted to another trial, for the law pro-
vides that she shall not be again
jeopardized for the same offense
Mrs. Staples will soon be taken to
the state penitentiary to start serv-
ing her sentence, the maximum of
which is Is years.

The report of the street committee,
recommending that certain improve

report condemned the condition of

that it be destroyed and retaining

opposition was made to this plan, it
being generally believed by the al

the meeting that the bridge should
either be repaired or rebuilt, its
value as a beauty spot to the city be
too great to allow its being replaced

Villa and Carranza to Confer.

:
ElPaso, Tex, April 2S-The re-
lations between General Carranza
and General Villa became the CEN
ter of interest here upon the sudden
departure of Villa for Carranza's
headquarters at Chihuahua. The
two leaders were expected to. meet
Last night to compose their difference
over the attitude of Constitutional
lists shall hold toward the United
States and over the grave problems
of military command. Refugees have
brought word that affairs between
them have reached a stage where
one or the other must accept dis
tinctly position in the revolution.
The situation alleged to have pre-
vailed on Texas, Arizona and New
Mexico border is regarded as more
reassuring.
Villa Peevish.
Villa contemplated a longer stay
grams from the south, suddenly an
nounced that he would depart. "Have
a train ready in the morning." he
snapped, and the necessary orders
were given.
Villa invited Robert " Pesqueirs,
Carranza's confidential agent here. to
go with him Pesqueirs. who is the
real foreign minister of the Consti-
tutionalists, although he holds no
portfolio, pleaded a pressure of bust
ness, and the train, after waiting
five hours, departed without him.
Significance also marks the departure
of Rafeal Zubaran, Carranza's min
lister of the interior, for Washing
ton.
Await Reply to Note
Carranza is still awaiting a reply
from President Wilson or Secretary
Bryan to the disturbing note Of We'd
nesday. The note, Carranza's aides
repeatedly explained, was intended
as basis of further diplomatic ex-
changes, hut among them the impress
|sion is growing that there will be no
reply. Carranza asked that the Am
erican forces be withdrawn from
Vera Cruz, and the president has
since made it clear that he has no
such intention at present.
Infantry Arrives
Three special trains, carrying sol
diers and officers of the Sixth and
Sixteenth infantry, have arrived, and
other trains with the remainder are
expected in the course of the night
and tomorrow. Fighting at Tampico
continued as it has for a week, and
the advantage thus far seems to have
l'been with the Federal garrison.

Bemidii's council last night com

number OF saloons. by granting

fused renewal. Three other APP
plications were also granted last
night, Larkin & Dale, Harry Gun
salas and p. K. Anderson.
OF the eight alderman in atten-
dance at the meeting three voted
against the granting of the Maloy
license, these being Lair Of the first
ward, Smart of the second ward and
Foucault of the third ward. Those
ifavoring the license were ,Moberg of
the first ward, Baily of the second
ward. Bisiar of the third ward, Mil
Ter of the fourth ward and Murphy,

Grant Gunsalas Application
! The Gunsalas application was
granted, Alderman Lahrz casting the
only vote against it. The Larkin

granted without opposition. @ Five
months ago Gunsalas was refused a
License by the council, and Carl An
derson, now dead, was given one, oc-
cupying the same building on Third
street Since the death OF Ander-
son the place has been closed, as has
! the Maloy saloon since the old license
expired. In other words, Bemidji to-
day has two more saloons than dur

though in previous years the city has
always given an appropriation to the
county fair, no money was asked for
last year. There are now several
thousand dollars in the treasury of
the fair association.
Tilt Over Fire Truck
That the members of the council do
not agree upon the advisaibility of the
purchase of an auto fire truck be-
came apparent last evening when the
suggestion was made that bids be ad-
vertised for. Alderman Miller and
Bisiar were opposed to such action,
while Aldermen Moberg and Smart
were of the opinion that the mat
ter should be disposed Of for the pre-
sent as what opposition as might
come up could he dealt with when the
bids were opened. The fire depart
ment has recommended the purchase
of the truck. A vote was taken as
to whether the bids should he asked
for, and the vote resulted five to four
lin favor of so doing, the newly ap-
pointed alderman from the fourth
ward, A. w. Dirty, casting his first
vote.
