The conviction of the Rev. Father

ON a charge of attempted rape OF
Martha O'Connor, his hcusekeepef,
was reversed late yesterday afternoon
by the state supreme court and re

Galen, who was i'll at the time the
case was argued.
The story of the prosecUtriX, even
if true, the opinion says, does not
show sufficient facts to justify a con-
viction of attempted rape. "There
can be no assault with intent to COM

in the mind of the assailant to over

may be offered by the female anC

sation with the prosecutrix to our
mind signifies entreaty, an urgent

desire and intention to determine
whether the prosecutrix would offer
resistance to his advances. Resist

In the closing paragraph the couri
scores the defendant as follows: The
defendants conduct as detailed by the
prOsecutrix was reprehensible, th'
more so because of his station II
life, and may not be justified or ap
proved in morals or law. The evi
dence is insufficient to convict the de
fendant of the commission of tn

bv Senator Wheeler, acting with
Campbell, to secure oil land permits
through cooperation with Booth.
The Montana Indictment, which was
