Judge Wilson stated from the bench
at the opening Of court today that the
court had nothing to do with the
bringing of the troops here, and that
he now took the position that he had
no right ask their recall. He said
that he had conferred with state coun-
sci and had been shown secret infor-
nation which he thought might have
warranted the presence of troops here
as a precautionary measure.
Expresses No opinion.
Judge Wilson refused to express an
opinion asst whether he thought the
presence of the soldiers was not a
necessity. Attorney George f. Wander
veer, defense counsel, who yesterday
asked that the court ask for the recall
of the soldiers, addressed the court
again today, declaring that the pres
ence of troops presented a situation
which threatens extreme prejudice. He
reiterated his statement of yesterday
to the eject that he would not lend
himselfto such a procedure. He said
he would not proceed indefinitely with
the case unless he had the information
which state counsel has given to the
court.
Judge Wilson informed Vanderveer
that the case must go on and after a
consultation with his clients, Wander
veer announced that he would proceed.
Opposition Not Strong.
w. II. Abel, of state counsel In ad-
| dressing the court, declared that ne
knew of none of the opposition to tSy
presence of troops which he said Van
derveer had quoted. Abel quoted
County Attorney j. e. Stewart as APP
proving the sending of the detachment
of soldiers here for the trial, and said
he understood that the sheriff also ap-
proved of the soldiers presence.
Judge Wilson has informed Major
Arthur Casey commander of the de
tachment here, that the soldiers are
to remain away from the court house
and 1t is understood that Major Casey
has evidenced a willingness to com
ply with the court rules.
'rhe fact that a gun was taker
from counsel for the defense, who hac
been bringing it into the court room
and that the newspapers have beer
publishing stories telling of two gur
men ard giardIng defense counsel
ought to be sufficient to justify the
presence Of troops" declared Mr. Abel
in addressing the court today.
Couty Attorney Stewart said today
that he had received information tC
the effect that 500 high-power rifles
had been sold in this section Of Wash
ington within the last and one-hal
months. Stewart said that the average
sales Of rifles for such period wa
Honly about one hundred.
