Mr.. Knight States Case.

Deputy Marshal Knight, represent
ing the government, in answer to
Pilkington's argument, summed up the
case for the government "The only
thing to be determined" he said, rs
as to whether or not there has been
cause shown as to The probability of
a violation of Section 2l3o Of the
Federal Statute as shown in the
complaint
The Court Sums Case.
In going over the testimony the
court decided to Withhold judgment
till Friday morning at ten o'clock. The
court did this for one reason alone.
The testimony shows that there was
liquor old to the Indian, Mary Will
liam, and the evidence is here in this
bottle. touches bottlc), and there
has been no testimony advanced that
will not bear out the testimony Of the
complaining witness. But quetion
arises as to the legality of certain
phases of this case" The court de-
clares a recess till Friday morning to
study over this point and this point
alone.
Awarded to Custody of Marshal.
Commissioner Judson~ Smith opened
court punctually at 10 o'clock Friday
morning, and in very brief address
stated, The Court finds the witness to
be ward of the government, and as
such, is within the jurisdiction of this
court, under Section 2l3o of the Fed
eral Statute. He awarded the custo-
dy of the prisoner to Deputy United
States Marshal Knight, with privi-
lege of furnishing bond, placing bond
at $500.
The case was handled in a fair and
l6ust manner. Commissioner Smith
/, gave Pilkington every opportunity to
clear himself of the charges. Mr..
Pilkington, instead of availing himself
of the opportunity, placed more re-
lance on what to him seemed pos
sible technicality, than on laying
stress on his innocence, and advancing
conclusive proof of this fact.
Pilkington goes to Jail.
Unable to furnish the increased
amount of the bail, Pilkington was
taken by United States Deputy Mar
shall might to Carson City.
