 ON ANCHORAGE CALENDAR
Anchorage Times)

The trial of Peter Coulter and Mrs. Peter Coulter of Seward, charged with violation of the prohibition law on counts of an information, one charging sale and the other posses sion, came to an end in the district court at about 11:30 this morning and the jury was still deliberating on the verdict when The Times went to press this afternoon.
 The introduction of evidence was concluded early yesterday afternoon, during the progress of which Judge E. Coke Hill granted a motion of the defense for the suppression of the charge of sale in the case of Peter Coulter, the government having fail ed to show his connection with any liquor transaction. A feature of the
 
 afternoon session was the appearance in court of Peter Start, witness for the defense, in what appeared to be an intoxicated condition and an at- tempt by him to give testimony from the side lines. He was removed from the court by a deputy marshal and lodged in the federal jail The prin- cipal witness for the government was George Zihuel It was on his affi- davit of sale by the Coulters that the Coulter home in Seward was search ed, the search revealing the presence of small quantity of beer and wine and a bottle of white mule. Posses sion of the white mule was denied by

the defendants and denial was made of the sale of any liquor by them. After having sworn in his affidavit that Coulter was present when he purchased a quantity of beer from Mrs. Coulter, the witness admitted on the stand that Coulter was not there at the time, whereupon the charge of sale against Coulter was dropped. The prosecution was forced to admit that the governments chief witness was not a good one, but con- able as the witness who appeared for the defendants.
 Most of the afternoon session yes terday was taken up by the argu- ments, Clyde R. Ellis, assistant U. s. attorney. opening for the govern
 
 ment, and Attorney A. J. Dimond presenting the argument for the de- fense. Court adjourned when MT. Di- mond closed and MT. Ellis presented his final argument when the trial was resumed this morning, followed by instructions to the jury by the court. At late hour this afternoon the jury in the Coulter case reached a verdict of not guilty on all colunts. The members of the jury were: L. J. Till, Edward Rawson, Frances Cribb, Henrietta Spach, John Brick son, V. c. Anderson, Carl Williams, Mary Mcconnell, F. B. Curran, Thos. J. Ford, Alfred Benson, Anna Ander- son.
