 Imposed on Silvas

MORALES, Ariz., Aug. 7.- Efforts to have the death penalty imposed on Placido Silvas, member of the bandit gang that killed Postmaster and Mrs. J. Frank Pearson of Ruby, Ariz., a year ago, will be abandoned as a re- suit of action today by Santa Cruz county authorities. Silvas' fourth tri- al for murder scheduled to open. Aug ust 2S. will not take place, it was announced, chiefly because Manuel Martinez, another member of the Ruby robber band and the states principal witness against Silvas, is sentenced to die on the gallows Aug. ust IS.
 "I do not believe jury can be ob- tained by August 2S," County Attorney A. H. DeReimer asserted, land inas- muc has Martinez is to be hanged on August IS and Silvas already is fac ing a term of life imprisonment. I do not see the necessity of putting the county to further expense. I submit ted the matter to the county board of supervisors today and the board recommended that no further trial of Silvas be had at this time"
 Mr. DeRiemer said he will request Superior Judge Pattee to vacate the pending charge against Silvas. In the three Silvas trials which already have taken place, two resulted in jury dis agreements and in the other he was found guilty and given life imprison ment.
