Martens Accused
Of Holding Secret
Trial i'm BROOKLYN
Government viii Introduce
Witnesses to Testify i'm Re-
gard to Extra-Diplomatic
Actions of Soviet Envoy

WASHINGTON, July 2l.-Eyidence
was offered by the government at to-
days hearing in the deportation pro-
ceedings against Ludwig c. A. K. Mar
tens, Soviet Ambassador" to the
United States, to prove that throughout
his activity in this country Martens
mas not held himself TO diplomatic
usage which he has claimed title to
exercise.
one OF the chief contentious of Mar
tens's counsel throughout the deporta-
tion proceedings has been that the en-
TIRE proceedings were irregular on ac-
count of the immunity from legal proc
esses offered by the so-termed dplo-
matte status of the Soviet agent.
Inc hearing was adjourned until
July 28 to permit the government to
produce witnesses to testify concern
ing. Martens's alleged extra diplomatic
activities, in particular secret trial
OF Louis c. Freyna in Brooklyn last
December, conducted by Martens in his
capacity of Soviet agent and attended
by Santeri Nuorteva, Gregory Vein
stein and others affiliated with the
Soviet regime.
Details of Trial
The trial. according to evidence in
possession of the government, was
held to pass upon Freyna's application
TO the Soviet bureau in New York for
a passport, it evidently having been
charged by certain Bolsheviki that as
an alleged agent of the Department Of
Justice Freyna had forfeited all claims
to Soviet privileges. At the reported
trial Freyna was acquitted by the
Soviet authorities of the charge.
Additional evidence to be produced
at the hearing at Ellis Island next
week, it is understood, will include the
report Of the Senate committees which
Investigated Martens's activities. Also
letter to Martens from A. Y. Rut-
gers, leader of the Amsterdam confer
ence of the Third international, dated
"Amersfoot, January Is, 1920" and
outlining the scope of Martens's work
in this country, is expected TO play an
important part in the charge against
Martens of having connection with an
organization seeking the overthrow of
the government of the United States
by force. This letter now is in pos
session OF. the government.
Refuses to Answer Questions
"You were selected as ambassador, -
Martens was informed by Rutgers,
"and not Weinstein, for obvious rea-
sons. From your activities it was
clearly demonstrated that you consider
commercial representation and efforts
for recognition paramount. Tchitche rim
and other comrades agreed with this
position. Your supposed clear concep-
tion OF uncompromising communist
principles decided that you, and not
Welnstein, were preferable"
The principal part of the argument
Of the government at the final hearing
next week, it is understood, will be de-
voted, however, to evidence of Mar
tens's affiation with the Russian Com
munist party.

LABOR DAY

Although Monday was a miserably
cold day large crowds turned out to
witness the races and ball game on
that day. Cars from Gunnison, Pa
onia, Hotchkiss, Somerset, Rockvale
and other points were present. We
were unable to obtain the names of
all the winners in the races but the
ball game Sunday afternoon between
Rockvale and Crested Butte was won
by the latter, score 8 to 6. The same
teams played Monday afternoon,
Rockvale being winner this time,
score l to 2. DR.. Rex Ellington was
Umpire.
All those who attended the games
said they were the best they had wit
messed for some time
The speakers at noon were David
Robb and o. F. Nigro. Both gave in
teresting talks regarding the labor
conditions of today.
The ball in the evening, given by
the Crested Butte Concert Band, was
decided success. A seven piece or
chestra furnished the music which
was pronounced as excellent.

0. ". DAVIS
Democratic Candidate for County
Commissioner from the First
District


D. w. Davis Is one of the County s
early settlers, coming here in 1891
and settling In Crested Butte. He ran
a livery stable there for five years
and also engaged in other business.
While in Crested Butte he served
eight years on the Town Council and
was recognized as one of the really
valuable members of that body.
He has been a continuous resident
of the county for 80 years; in 1911 he
removed to Somerset and resided
there for a few years, later coming
here and embarking i'm the cigar and
tobacco business so long conducted
by L. w. Weinberger
Mr.. Davis has never aspired to
county office, and this year was prac-
tically drafted to serve because his
many friends felt that he was the
right man for the place. He has long
been affiliated with the democratic
party and enjoys their fullest conf
dence. The fact that in the places
where he is best known he is strong
est, speaks volumes for his general
efficiency. He is recognized as a care
full and conservative business man
and his presence on the next Board Of
Commissioners will bring strength to
that body.

DEXTER !. sApP PASSES ON

Dexter T. Sapp, pioneer attorney of
Gunnison and leader of the demo-
cratic party on the western slope,
died suddenly at the Kenmark hotel
at 4:30 o'clock Sunday afternoon.
Death was due to an affliction of the
heart from which Mr.. Sapp had suf-
fered for some time. He was in
Denver for treatment.
Mr.. Sapp was a native of Battle
Creek, Michigan, born in 1S47. He
received his early education at Abb
on, Michigan. In 1864 he enlisted in
the First Michigan cavalry, serving
until the close of the Civil War.
After the war Mr.. Sapp located in
Chicago. There he practiced law un-
til 1881, when he came to Colorado.
He took up his residence in the then
virtually unknown Gunnison district,
first practicing in Pitkin and then in
Gunnison. For many years he was
one of the leading attorneys Of west
ern Colorado. He was a member of
the state senate one full four year
term, and for many years was county
attorney of Gunnison county.
Mr.. SRpp leaves one daughter, Mrs.
Reva Sapp O'Connor, a resident Of
Guatemala, Central America, formerly
a newspaper writer on various Den
yer newspapers.
Senator Sapp's funeral was held
Wednesday afternoon from the Com
munity Church, Rev. J. S. Ferris
preaching the funeral sermon. The
Masonic fraternity, of which Mr..
Sapp was an honored member, con-
Quoting its services at the cemetery.
To the surviving brother and
daughter the Empire joins in condol-
ences with all j, that multitude of
friends who knew and respected Dex-
ter T. Sapp. He lived wonderfully
active life, died practically in the
harness and when the record is all
written and considered, the verdict
must be one of approval. His closest
personal friend, Henry C. Bartlett,
was with him at his passing and in
his arms passed to the eternal and
we'll earned glories of the greater life.
A great host of friends will miss him
in the days that are to come.
