COURT REJECTS
PLEAS ENTERED
AGAINST BILLS
Judge Reed Rules Against
Abatement Pleas Entered
by Hoxie and Others.

In an oral ruling delivered in open
court this morning, Judge Reed de
MED the pleas entered to the indict
ment against Charles Hoxie, Bill
Douglas, Neil Gallagher and Ole
Frederickson on which arguments
were heard by him last Thursday
morning. Attorneys for the defense
asked for and were allowed an ex-
ception to the Courts decision.
After he had stated his ruling,
Judge Reed allowed the defendants
until Monday morning to plead fur
ther to the Indictment which charg-
ed the four men with conspiracy to
commit an offense against the Unit
ed States alleging numerous viola
tions of the National Prohibition
Act.
Supports Governments Procedure.
The ruling was divided into two
sections, the first dealing with the
allegation that ]. H. Hart, Asst U.
S. Attorney, had acted as a stem
ographer for the U. S. Attorneys
office in the grand jury room during
the proceedings resulting in the in
dictment, the second, affecting Gal
lagher and Frederickson alone, that
they were entitled to immunity from
indictment under the Prohibition Act
by reason of the fact they had been
called under Government subpoenas
to testify in the proceedings.
Judge Reed said he could find no
authority to sustain the first con-
tention of the defense that the use
of Mr.. Hart, as alleged, was con-
trary to the statute, or that 1t VIC
lated the rights of the defendants in
any manner. On the contrary, the
court said, Mr.. Hart was authorized
to be in the grand jury room and
had a perfect right to make notes
for use by the U. S. Attorney in
bringing out the facts in the case
when trial should follow. He quoted
from various court decisions support
ing this position.
Regarding the contention that Gal
lagher and Frederickson were en-
titled to immunity, the Court held
that it had not been shown anywhere
by the defense that they had testi-
fled to any facts, or produced any
evidence, that tended to incriminate
themselves, but that the U. S. At
torney had presented an affidavit
showing that no testimony was Civ
en- by either of them that could in
criminate them. The plea, there
fore, he added, sis insufficient and
had a demurrer been interposed it
would have been sustained" In
conclusion he said that the pleas in
abatement were therefore overruled
on all counts.

FIREMEN SCORE BIC
HIT WITH FARMERS
DANCE LAST NIGHT

big crowd jammed Elks Audi
torium last night to help the Ju-
neau Fire Department pull off its
much heralded Farmers Ball at
which gingham and calico mingled
with jeans and blue cotton in one
of the most enjoyable dances given
this season.
The decorations, a credit to the
committee, were in keeping with the
spirit of the event. Various farm.
ing implements were hung along
the walls and windows. One of
these, pitchfork, hung on a nail
to give characteristic touch, slip
ped from its fastenings and almost
"beaned" whiting rancher from
Douglas. AS no injury was done
this incident merely added to the
pitch of the occasion.
There were few infringements of
the rule as to costumes The ladies'.
conforming to the best established
practice,i appeared in house dresses,
ginghams and aprons. Some of the
men strayed from farm conventions,
appearing in white collars adorned
with ties, sporting jewelry and 9th
er luxuries affected by denizens of
urban centers. Conspicuous among
these were Judge V. A. Paine and
e. Gastonguay. A Kangaroo Court
presided over by Justice Farmer
Gray with Deacon Fremming as
prosecutor, was convened and inn
posed sentences to fit the crime.
Cider was literally dispensed by
Isl" McKinnon and Hiram" Hen
Erickson without fear of indictment
by the grand jury now in session.
"1chabod" Freeburger, attired in
Dame Freeburger's work overalls,
was caretaker without competition
of the calves and chickens, all var
ietes.
The Alaskans elicted words of
praise not only for the excellent mus
ic they furnished, which was notable,
but also for the spirit they showed
in appearing in costumes appropriate
to the occasion. The applause that
greeted them was second only to
that spontaneously given the Eagle
River Dozen" that rendered two
dance numbers highly gratifying the
crowd
This is the second OF these af-
fairs sponsored by the Department,
both Of which have proved popular.
The proceeds are to be applied to
