KIRBY MAY PAY COSTS IN
ACTION AGAINST POLICY

Pierre, S. D., May 15.-The referees
report In the Policy disbarment case
has been filed with the supreme court,
and their findings hold that Joe Kirby
did not, prior to the filing of his petit
ton praying for the disbarment of
Judge Policy, inquire Of Will Bailey
whether or not he had paid, or given
any gratuity or reward, for his ap-
pointment to the legislative position. II
was charged in the petition filed by
Kirby that Policy had received re-
ward for making the appointment.
The findings hold, further, that the
letters filed in the case in now way
warrant the conclusions contained in
such charge and tina: said accusations
were made and filed by Kirby without
probable cause; that, In the opinion of
the referees, the court should deter
mine what, IL any, costs exist and why
they should not be taxed against Kirby.
