SMITH BACK
GOVERNOR HAINES REFUSED TO
SIGN REQUISITION PAPERS ON
GOVERNOR OF OREGON.
Case Pending Must Wait for Defendant
to Come Into State Before PrOseeu-
5tIOn May Be Carried Out.

The state of Idaho, through the La
tab county authorities are in effect
restrained from prosecuting the bur-
glary charge now pending against Ed
Scott, alias ]. e. Smith, wanted for the
alleged theft of a suit case from the
Del Norte hotel last summer, because
Governor John E. Haines has refused
to sign a requisition on the governor of
Oregon for the return of the man who
is now being held at Corvallis, pending
the securing of the papers. The refus-
al to sign the requisition was made
known to County Attorney Nesbit in
letter received from the governor to-
day.
The action taken came as a surprise
to the county authorities and there
was considerable gossip at the court
house today in respect to the matter.
The defendant in the action was con-
fined in the county jail for a period
pending hearing in the district court.
Subsequently he was released on
bonds of $500. The bonds were fur
nished by surety company. When
the case was called in the district court
the defendant failed to make an ap-
pearance and bench warrant was
issued for his arrest He was located
in Corvallis, Oregon, and after iden
tifcation was placed under arrest
there and was to be returned to Latah
county after the necessary papers
were received.
Governor Haines states in his letter
that the requisition is not granted be-
cause after an examination of the pa
pers in the preliminary hearing that
he had come to the conclusion the case
was family quarrel and that the evi
dence was insufficient to warrant a
He said the expense would
be too great to warrant signing the
requisition and the action taken was
in keeping with his desire to refrain
from doing anything that would cause
an expense to the taxpayers of the
state.
