BLACKMAu PAYMENT
NJ. S. Williams Makes UNIQUE De-
tense Against Payment of
$1,000 Note

SEATTLE, Mar. 28.-"Because
one Fickert was defeated and one
Brady elected as district attorney in
San Francisco, the defendant didn' t
have to pay any blackmail to have
his case dismissed
This unique defense is made by
M. s. Williams in the King county
superior court, against paying his
$1,000 note delivered to Walter
Powers, Williams claims, in con-
junction with promise to pay $3,-
900 to one w. p. Canbua, former as
sistant to Fickert, for dropping
charges of grand larceny of some
$4,000 worth of liquor against
Williams brother, o. S. Williams,
and Charles Guim and John Doe
Thompson.
Found Stolen Liquor.
Powers, it Is alleged, found his
liquor stolen from an Eureka, Cali
fornia, warehouse and filed charges
against the three men named. The
liquor, 1t is said, was subsequently
found in CORTLAND and Powers,
Williams says. represented himself
as having sufficient influence with
Canbua to dismiss the case in re-
turn for the note and for $4,000
paid to Canbua.
Williams states further that on
March Is. 1920, he was notified that
the deal was of, because It required
more cash but that he paid to Can
bua 800. Brady was subsequently
elected in Fickert's place, he adds,
and the case was dropped without
blackmail."
The matter was before Judge
Boyd J. Tallman on a demurrer pre-
sented by Powers, asking that the
defendants answer be thrown out of
court. Attorney Dore, representing
Williams. argued that the entire
matter should be left in the record
to be aired at the hearing on the
merits and Judge Tallman decided
In favor Of Dore.
