The dismissal of the charges
against George Rowland and Harry

Judge Steele excused the jury With
instructions to report Monday when

taken up. John Nisbet, prosecuting
attorney, says that the cases were
dismissed because the state was un-

der the direction of "Babe" Brown OF
Boise, wrestling team captain are
making strenuous preparations fol-
their first mat tournament of the
year, an affray with Washington
State college to be staged in Idaho
gymnasium February 2.
Principal stress in the teamis train
ing thus far has been placed on work
of all-around development expected
ito produce that highly desirable
quality, endurance, but some little
time has also been devoted to the
science of the game. Brown has made
a conscientious effort to teach his
charges all of the holds permitted un-
der amateur rules.
Ted Sherman of Boise is a promis-
ing candidate for a position ON the
Idaho team in the featherweight
class; Wesley Phillippi of Boise is the
probable Idaho lightweight; Jack
Musser of Filler has shown more
form than any of the other we1ter-
weights trying for the team and Yer
non Patch of Payette and Keith
Horning of Portland appear to be the
more promising of the middleweight
aspirants.
Captain Brown will wrestle in
either the light-heavyweight group or

DECISION AFFECTS
GRAIN WAREHOUSES;
IMPORTANT WHEAT CASE TRIED
IN LATAH COUNY OF GEN
ERAL INEREST.

A case of more than ordinary in
'terest to warehousemen, farmers anc
millers has just been decided in the
district court of Latah county by a
jury, with Judge Edgar C. Steele pre-
siding. The case is regarded as of
Importance in that it sets precedent
for the handling of wheat stored in
warehouses in Idaho.
The case was that of the Mark P.
Miller Milling Company, of Moscow
VS.. Thomas F. Wren, "Doing business
as Wren & Greenough Land Com
pany," at Fem, Idaho. Miller sued
for the value of two warehouse tick
cts each for 1000 bushels of wheat,
issued in December, 1918. The tickets
were issued by the Wren & Green
ough Land Company by Thomas
Wren, by j. M. Wren, according to
the evidence, and 81 M" Wren was
shown to be Josephine Wren, a sister
of Thomas F. Wren.
The evidence showed that the Mark
P Miller Milling Company bought
1900 bushels of wheat from the de-
dendants at that time and that all
but 1000 bushels were delivered. Mil
Ter brought suit for the value of this
wheat, the value being placed at
tfrom $2.55 to $2.65 per bushel" The
jury gave Miller verdict for $4,000.
The defendant contended that the
grain had been delivered to- others but
that the tickets had not been sur
rendered. Judge Steele held that
warehouse company has no right to
deliver grain without the surrender
of the tckets and that if it does the
warehouse company is responsible to
the holder of the tickets for the grain
or it's value.
The defense contended that ~. M.
'Wren," by whom the tickets were
signed, had no authority to issue the
tickets where upon Frank L. Moore,
attorney for Miller, charged that if
such was the case J. M. Wren would
be practically guilty of forgery The
plaintiff showed that tickets had been
issued to Ed Wren, and Jim Wren,
brothers of Thomas F. Wren and
Josephine Wren, at the same date, on
identically the same kind of a receipt,
and signed the same way, the first
fol 1000 bushels and the other for
A 900 bushels and that the wheat had
been delivered on both of these tick
cts. The jury was out but short
time and returned verdict for Miller
III the amount stated.
Wren was represented by B. Augur,
of Grangeville, and Harry T. Daven-
port, of Wakefield, Witherspoon & |
Davenport, Spokane. Frank L. Moore, |
of Moscow, was attorney for the |
plaintiff. The grain in dispute was |
stored in the defendants elevator at |
Fem, Idaho.

GAY YOUNG MANS MOCK WE'D
DING TOUR" ENDS In THE
LATAH COUNTY BASTILE

What is claimed to be an attempted
violation of the Mann white slave"
law came to dramatic close today
when the alleged gay Lathario" was
given six months in the county Jail,
$500 fine and severe lecture by Pro-
bate Judge Nelson who voiced his
regret that he could not send the de-
fendant to the penitentiary.
Earl M. Williams, of Spokane, is the
young man who is alleged to have
planned to take a Moscow high school
girl to Spokane, Seattle, Portland and
California on mock wedding tour"
The evidence brought out at the trial
of Williams today showed that he had
corresponded with a Moscow high
school girl whose name is withheld
and asked her to meet him at Colfax.
They had never met but he described
himself and his clothing so there could
be no mistake. He outlined a trip to
Spokane where they would stay with
friends and then go to other cities
and the south. He announced he would
have clothing for her.
The officers were notified and ar
ranged with the girl to meet Will
liams. She went to ColfaX and found
Williams waiting as he said he would
She addressed him, asking if he was
E. NJ. Williams and gave her name.
and accompanied her to a Colfax ho-
tel where he registered as "E. M
Smith and wife, and, securing the
keys, started for the room assigned
them. Charles Summerfield, deputy
sheriff of Latah county and deputy
sheriff, of Whitman county, who had
followed the couple from the depot,
arrested Williams just as they en-
tered the room.
Williams was brought to Moscow and
entered plea of guilty to charge of
contributing to the delinquency of
minor and received the sentence and
the lecture. He began serving his SEN
tence at once.
Williams father was formerly q
resident of Bovill but is now conduct
ing a hotel in Spokane. Williams gave
his age as 27 years. He is married
but says his wife deserted him. He
carried his marriage license with him
and had it in his possession when ar
rested.
