INDICTMENTS
ARE DISMISSED
State Frees two Men so They
Can Testify. in Hazelton
Riot Cases.

Bismarck, N. D., Dec. 10.-1n order
to procure some witnesses for the
prosecution, the state today dismissed
its Indictments of unlawful assembly
against Harold Kreamer and Herbert
Dawson, two Hazelton young men who
were among IA or more indicted by
the Emmons county grand jury in
connection with the Hazelton riots.
The state had been prevented from
placing these men on the stand to tes-
tify against the five principals indict,
ed forr iot-Torkelson. Babcock, Arm
strong, Hartman and Ellithorpe-
while a charge hung oven their heads
and when their evidence might in
eliminate themselves.
Although Vernon Scott faces a sim
liar charge, he was allowed to take
the stand. this morning. He told Of an
assemblage in a local pool hall the
night Of the riot and of hearing some
one suggest that the crowd ''go out
and get Wallis Daugherty." He was
not able to connect any of the princi-
pal defendants up with this sugges-
ton, however. He thought that Arm
room when he, the witness, first came
in. but he was not certain that they
were there when this statement was
made nor that they heard it.
SCOTS testimony was as inconse-
quential as that Of the witnesses who
preceded him, insofar as any direct
bearing on the case is concerned.
Hazelton people either know very lit
tie of the occurrences Of that night.
or they are loath to tell what they do
know. w. w. Daugherty, son-in-law
of Mrs. F. l.. Perras, who was shot
dead while facing the crowd on the
porch of her home, could tell nothing
of the accidental shooting, though he
traced events leading up to it. W. L.
Yeater and Steve Pazychowski told
about Wallie D~augherty's purported
wheat-hoarding and of the public in
dignation it aroused, but of the crime
as actually charged they appeared to
have little definite personal knowl-
| edge.
