NO DECISION IN
THE WILDER CASE


Special to The World
SApULPA, OKLA, July 14.-Al-
though the county commissioners
were to have handed down a decision
today In the custer proceedings insti-
tuted against Sheriff Lew Wilder
some time ago they failed TO do so
and the fate Of the official may not
be known for several days. Why the
commissioners failed To- hand down
the expected decision is not clearly
understood by those Interested i'm tho
outcome of the case. They have been
in deliberatiou for nearly two weeks
and have Investigated the matter thor
oughly.
It was freely predicted on the
streets here today that some new de-
yelopment had arisen which was de-
laying the decision, but little credenc9
is placed I'm this by those who are ac-
quaiuted with the case in all OF It's
phases. Some reports We're 10 the ef-
feet that decision would never be-
handed down and that Sheriff Wilder
would not be removed from office.
The Sapulpa Herald o. 5. Todd5
newspaper which has played such an
important part i'm the recent reign
,f terror occurring here, continues
to wage war on the alleged l8wless
element. while other local publica-
tous are defending Wilder and ask
the commissioners to think well be-
fore they take any action in tha
matter.
