S-SNAINDAL T EANED
Corp. Counsel EtteIson in which slot
machines were declared illegal
Shelby M. Singleton, sec'y of the
Citizens assn, who started the
trouble, testified that three inVesti-
gators employed by the assn
brought in the evidence on which
the charges were founded. The in
vestigators were: Jos. A. Thoney,
who was a leading member of Funk
hOuseT's morals squad when they
were running wild through the city;
w. w. Scott, at present a strike
breaking guard employed in La Sale,
H., and NJ A. Fullerton. Thoney and
Fullerton testified to finding several
machines that paid money, if you
were lucky, in Caughlin's district.
Patterson went fully into the pasts
of ThOney and Fullerton and brought
in the intimation that Thoney had
gotten into trouble while employed
by the street car company.
Singleton, while on the stand, was
asked why he didn't furnish Caugh-
lin with the evidence of slot machine
gambling found in his district so that
he might try to drive it out. He re-
piled that he didn't think Caughlin
would have taken action if he had
told him.
At the conclusion of the hearing
Patterson and Robert E. Grove, atty
for the police department, asked that
the charges be dismissed because of
the ruling which upheld slot ma
chimes and because Caughlin did not
know that machines Of the gam
bling type existed in his dictrict.
Cap. Coffin overruled their motion
and continued the case until Mon
day. There was no mention of T. c.
Asplund, admitted slot machine
agent, and Frank BUzsin, 29th ward
politician, being called as witnesses.
Buzsin, who is the administration
leader in the stockyards district, was

NJ TALL EOLl lNlAl
POLICE TRIAL BEGIN
Hearing of the first slot machine
case was begun by the city civil serV-
ice board this morning when Capt.
Thomas J. Caughlin of the Stock
yards station went to trial on charge
of allowing machines of a gambling
type to operate in his district.
Before the hearing opened there
was a Tumor passed around to the
effect that Joseph Geary, Democratic
member of the civil service board
and the only member Of the COM.
mission who doesn't play politics
with the ThOmpsOn-Lundin crowd,
was prepared to check any move to
make the police captains the goats
for the purpose Of protecting Lundin
politicians.
1t is Geary's plan, according to the
dope" passed around the City Hall,
to urge a complete inquiry into the
whole affair if the administration
members of the board show any dis
position to force the captains to
walk the plank" without probing
the secret charges that politicians
gave the word to the slot machine
owners to "go ahead" and told the
police to clay off because everything
was fixed at the City Hail."
But the Thompson-Lundin mem
bers of the board showed no ambi-
ton to get rough" this morning.
The hearing was as peaceful as a
ladies' sewing circle meeting. Cap.
Coffin, Charley Frazier and Atty
Howard Sprogle said nothing during
the mornings session.

ney dear to the heart Of the Chicago
Tribune with him. He was Perry S.

PLAN TO ERECT NEW

Continued from First Page.)

water upon the smoldering debris,
Dominion government officials were
making plans to erect a new and more
imposing structure upon the site of the
building wrecked b. Thursday nights
fire. Meantime parliament will sit in
the auditorium of the Royal Victoria
museum until the new customs house
can be made ready for occupancy.
Although the police frown upon the
theory that a plot was responsible for
the destruction of the building or that
the fire was stared by a bomb, Fire
Chief Graham is quoted as having said
the fire was set" and that he heard
several explosions.
Government officials assert they be-
lieve the flames were not of incendiary
origin, but they, nevertheless, are con-
Quoting rigid investigation in an eff
fort to determine whether there is
basis for suspicion. Coroner Craig

of both were taken last night to Que

A Gordon OF police stood guard all
day around the ruins OF the building

PRISONER GIVEN
HIS FREEDOM BY
ORDER OF COURT
Judge Mccarthy Holds In
determinate Law Does
Not Apply in Case of Rob
ert Brandt.

Robert A. Brandt who has been
serving an indeterminate sentence of
from 10 years to life in the state peni-
Tertiary for murder in the second de-
gree, committed in Nez Perez county,
April IS, 1908, a free man. He was
released from the state institution at
noon today upon order of Judge C. P.
Mccarthy, under habeas corpus pro-
ceedings, which were heard this morn
ing in chambers.
Charles Clifton appeared for the de-
PENDANT, setting forth the allegation
that Brandt was being unlawfully de-
tanned in the penitentiary, as he had
completed his 10-year sentence, with
the time allowed off for good behavior,
having served six years, three months
and five days. 1t was maintained that
the indeterminate sentence in his case
was illegal for the reason that the
crime for which he was sentenced was
committed on April IS, 1908, while the
indeterminate sentence law did not go
into effect until IL days later, and
therefore only the 10-year sentence
could stand under the law
Judge Mccarthy held that an error
had been made in making the sentence
and ordered his release.
Shortly after the order had been
given, the attorney general received a
telegram asking him to have Brandt
re-arrested and returned to Nez Perez
for re-sentence, but such action could
not be taken, as he had served the time
given him and been released, and there
was no law by which he could be re-
arrested for the same offense.

The supreme court handed down an
opinion last night in the cast of Estele
Trask and George r. Trask versus the
Success Mining company, reversing the
decision of the lower court for the
plaintiffs. The case originated in the
First judicial district court for Sho-
shone county. The opinion was writ
ten by the chief justice and concurred
in by his associates.
The original action was to recover
possession of small piece of land in
Shoshone county for $500 damages for
the alleged withholding of the premises.
and also for the sum of $500, alleged
value of the rents, issues and profits of
the land. The trial court found that
Estelle Trask was the owner in fee
simple of the premises and awarded
her damages in the sum of one dollar.
The mining company appealed. The
evidence showed that the defendant had
improved the property in controversy
and used 1t as necessary adjunct to its
milling and mining operations, which
was one of the main contentious re-
garding the ownership of the property.
