The term was adjourned subject TO the
cali of Judge David ! Leahy, but It
is extremely unlikely that any more
cases will be called for hearing before
the November sessions. Tax collec-
tions are beginning, and there Is
expected to be a large amount or
money available for use by the court
during the fail term. Indications are
that criminal cases at chat time will
be numerous, owing to the fact that
several We're carried over from this
spring. and also that the grand jury
returned several indictments last
week. the accused men in nearly ev-
cry instance pleading not guilty.
After having been out since Satur-
day afternoon the jury in the case OF
Juan Lujan charged with the seduc-
ton Of Joseflta MARTINEZ, was dis
charged Tuesday afternoon The
jurors were unable to reach verdict
After considerable evidence had
been introduced in the case Of Rufra-

the charge was dismissed IT appeared
that Bustos, who now is serving a
