JURY OUT l6 HOURS
Sentence Of Court Reserved for Future
Date at muskOgee and Both
Released on Bond

Seldom have two sensations Of
equal magnitude followed one on the
heels of the other during a session Of
the federal court in Chickasha as is
the case today Scarcely had the
case of Tom Hunter, widely known
politician OF Hugo and representative
in the state legislature from that dis
trict gone to trial this morning when
the jury in the case OF Robert r.
Warren, prosecuting attorney, and
Wright Bombord, local capitalist OF
Hugo, announced that verdict had
been reached sixteen hours after the
case had been turned over to IT, In

men had been found guilty after one
Of the hardest fought liquor cases
ever tried here. The court declared
It would pass sentence on the two
men at Muskogee at a date to be an
nounced later and released both on
their original bonds.
A coincidence worthy of mention
was found in the fact that Hunter
whose trial had been interrupted by
the verdict, had, at the last election,
been defeated by Warren, whose con-
v'ction was announced, as represen.
iatiye from that district. Both the
lngong and outgoing Legislators for

The Warren Case.

Outside of Chickasha Hugo is by
far the best represented city in Ok
lahoma at this session of the court
and the citizens OF that place who are
now here are representative. OF the
twelve men who took the stand yes
terday in the Warren-Bomford trial,
eight were character witnesses and
included lawyers, a Methodist minis
ter, and business men, while officials
took care Of the governments case.
Both Warren and Bomford are high
Iy respected citizens of Hugo. In an
unguarded moment, however, In the
Iatters car they visited the Texas
town Of Arthur City, ten miles dis
tant and just across the Red river,
the dividing line at that place between
the Lone Star state and Oklahoma.
Arthur City is a city OF 'steen inhab-
itants more or less when they are all
at home and its chief source Of rev.
enue is a saloon. In another unguard-
ed moment these two highly respected
citizens in some manner accumulated
the 262 bottles OF beer which were
seized in their car by William II. Hous-,
ton, the vigilant special enforcement
officer of the Indian service, who saw
the men cross the state line and thus
established the fact, in the opinion Of
the jury, that the had introduced this
liquor into the state Of Oklahoma in
violation Of the federal statutes.
The defendants not only tried to
convince the jury that the state had
failed to make out case against
them but by introducing eight Witness
es apparently convinced the twelve
men that their characters and general
reputation in their community were

Tom Hunters Case.
Tom Hunter, who as a member of
the last legislature made a strong
fight for the speakership Of that body
during the past session, was placed
on trial this morning before Judge
Campbell after making frequent at
tempts to delay that ordeal.
Hunter and an Indian, Eli Bohan-
non, who had worked for the legisla-
tor, are being tried jointly.
The first witnesses on the stand
were W. J. Jones. city marshal Of Hu-
go. and John See. a police officer the
two men who arrested Bohannon as
he alighted from the train on his ar
rival home at Hugo from Dallas,
Texas, with enough liquor in his pos
session to warrant his arrest. Bohan
