WILL FIGHT ID
 AVOID TRIAL OV
 MURDER CHARGE ALLEGED SLAYER OF MAJOR CRONkHiTE WILL APPEAL TO SUPREME COURT

PROVIDENCE, k. l., Jan. 1S.-An- other phase to the mysterious murder case of Major kronkhite at Camp Lewis, Washington, came to light to- day when Roland R. Pothier, jointly charged with Capt. Robert Rosenbluth with the murder, declared that he would fight all attempts to bring him to trial for the murder and especially if the trial is to be held in the city of Tacoma. It is stated that his in tention will be to appeal directly to the United States supreme court to test the legality of such proceedings.
 Ever since the commission of Ghe crime both Pothier and Rosenbluth have at various times been subjected to processes of law, the latest being the arrest of both with Pothier being mitted to bonds in the sum Of forty thousand dollars.
 OA 4udA Cu 1V, 1o@4, tiAc uSPoA ehANAA% of justice commenced an investigation into the death of Major Cronkhite, and ten days later Roland Pothier was ar rested, charged with the crime of murder. He eventually pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter and after a short hearing was released. On March 24, Capt Rosenbluth was ar rested in New York city on the same charge but later allowed his liberty Since that time evidence came to light which caused grand jury action at Tacoma, Wash, with the result that two secret indictments were returned, resulting in the rearrest of both alleg- ed principals.
 When the time came for Pothier to be taken to the Pacific coast for trial his counsel interposed legal obstruc- tions with the result that the appeal to the supreme court will be made.
