RELEASED

BY HIGHER
TRIBUNAL
RICHARDSON AND RoBB ARE
ORDERED SET AT LIBERTY BY
SUPREME couRT-ARE OUT ON

MEN CONVICTED KING MURDER

Under the provisions Of a superce-
das issued by the supreme court on
Thursday and received here this NOR
ming, Ben Richardson and Dave Robb
were ordered released from the coun-
ty jail under bond pending the deter
mination Of their motion for a new
trial on writ of error. The super
cedas was directed to the sheriff and
was referred by him to Gen. Jos. H.
Maupin, resident attorney for the
prisoners. Bond in the sum of three
thousand dollars for Richardson and
five thousand dollars for Robb was
required by the supreme court as a
condition precedent for their dis.
charge from custody and are expect
ed to be complied with in both in
stances this afternoon. In fact Rich
ardson, through the assistance of his
friends. filed an acceptable bond a
few hours after being notified of the
action of the court and was given his
liberty at noon today. 1t is believed
that Robb will be able to provide
bond as soon as his acquaintances In
the coal camps can rally to his sup
port and will, probably. see the Jail
doors swing open for him to walk
out before 6 o'clock this evening.
Richardson and Robb were convict
ed in the distritc court here January

with the attack of striking miners
on the Victor American Fuel COM
pany's property at Chandler on Apr.
25. 1914. and sentenced by Judge
Cavender OF Leadville to the peniten-
tiary. Exceptions were made by
counsel for the defendants to the rul
ings of the trial Judge as to the admis-
stability to the jury OF certain portions
of the evidence introduced by the
prosecution and application for a re-
hearing Of the case made. Judge
Lavender granted attorneys for the
defendants sixty days in which to file
their motion for a new trial, and,

meantime.

by the supreme court cannot be fore

but it seems probable that nothing
further will be done in the case for
several months at least.

thousands of American lives.
A report that created stir in army

Funston to the effect that the major

1t clear, however, that he believed
they were acting without orders. This
report was made public after it had
been submitted to President Wilson.
The Carranza agency here was quick
to deny the Funston report. They de-
clared that Carranza has offered to

every way in preventing armed bands

They say he has issued orders that

WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.-General
Carranza is getting ready to fight the

formidable obstacle to a settlement OF

was admitted in official circles today.
Consequently the persuasion to have

q number of the insurgent bands who
have been fighting his force are sur

This was rejected by the receiver, and

ASSIGNED TO BEATS

Notwithstanding the steady rain
which fell this morning, several par
ties Of campers moved their belongings
and equipment to the Chautauqua
grounds in Glen Miller park, where
they housed them in the tents they
will occupy for the next ten days.
Many persons, however, decided to
wait until the weather cleared to some
extent before attempting the removal
Practically everything is in readi-
ness for the opening of the Chautau-
qua. While the rain has softened the
ground and wet the grass and trees,
the managers of the Chautauqua in
tend to eliminate, If possible, all dis
comfort which would otherwise fall to
the lot of those who will camp out and
those who attend the events.

Ell PASO, Tex, Aug. IL General
Carranza's reply to Gen. Villas pro-
posal Of an armistice for discussion OF
a compromise by the Mexican factions
was an order for an assault on Tor
reon. Reports received at Juarez to.
day state that the Carranzistas have
already begun their attack on Tor
reon. Villa is expected to leave for
the south at once, though he claims
his forces at Torreon are strong
enough to repel the enemy. Since his
arrival, at the border he has sent to
Torreon great quantities of ammuni-
tton. No details of the fighting at
Torreon have been received here yet,
but it is understood that the attacking
Carranzistas number $4,000 men. Viii
las defending army is said to contain
over $4,000 men.

of Temporary Structure
With County Officials
Examines DOran Bridge.
NO ACTION IS TAKEN
Commissioner Anderson Fa-
vors Erection of Span to
Relieve Congestion at Cost
of About 1900.

The construction of a temporary
bridge at Main street at the site of
the old National road bridge to relieve
the present congested traffic over the
Doran bridge, which it is feared is
not strong enough to stand the strain
for the next eighteen months during
the repairing or rebuilding Of the Main
street bridge, seems to be the most
feasible plan in the opinion of the
county commissioners. Superintend-
ent Je6eries Of the Terre Haute, Indi-
annapolis & Eastern Traction company
appeared before the board this morn.
Ing and virtually promised to nay a
portion OF the cost Of a temporary
structure, provided this plan seems
the most advisable.
j. G. Troyer, expert bridge engineer,
employed by the Traction company, is
making an inspection of the Doran
bridge. If he reports to the traction
company that with a reasonable
amount of expenditure, the Doran
bridge can be placed in condition for
heavy 1nterurban traffic, the company
will make application to the city coun-
ell for permission to run interurban
car across the span.
Await Expert's Report.
This report will be completed by to-
morrow afternoon, according to Su-
perintendent Jefferies AS soon as the
report is made negotiations will be
opened with the city.
IF our expert engineer reports that
the Doran bridge can be made strong
enough. the Traction company will
stand the expense of reinforcing it,
providing the city will grant us the
right to use it during the emergency"
said Superintendent Jefferies. "If our
engineer reports that it is unsafe, the
Traction company will join with the
county in building temporary bridge
