CHARGES
DROPPED
Accusation Dismissed By
Court On Motion OF Dis
trict Attorney Head.
WITNESSES MISSING
Court Declares Evidence
insufficient To Warrant
Conviction.

Thanksgiving day will be unusual
ly happy for Sheriff Charles L.
Gillett and his family, following ac-
tion taken this afternoon in the SUI
perior court when Judge Finney dis
missed the accusation charging the
sheriff with malfeasance and mis-.
conduct in office on motion of Dis
trict Attorney Elmer w. Heald.
For the first time in many months
the sheriff is free from the shadow
of indictments and accusation re-
turned against him by the grand
jury.
Several weeks ago, at his second
trial on indictments charging him
with theft and misappropriation of
county money, the jury returned
verdict of not guilty.
Following the verdict the district
attorney announced that he would
proceed with the accusation against
the sheriff, trial of which had been
delayed, pending the result Of the
trial ON the indictments. When the
case was called, Judge Finney dis
missed SO charges in the accusation,
upholding a defense contention that
they involved practically. the same
charges as those set forth in the in
dictment on which the sheriff had
been acquitted
On the remaining five counts it
was ordered that the sheriff should
stand trial. Dismissal of these to-
day removes all charges from Gillett,
who from the first has stoutly main
tanned that he had done nothing
criminal and that the charges
against him would not stand up in
court
In filing the application for dis.
missal the district attorney inform
ed the court in writing that the
principal states witnesses are ma
tives of the Republic of Mexico and
that after due and diligent search
at the last known address of the
witnesses in Mexicali, they could
not be found, and there present
whereabouts are unknown.
The court remarked that ample
| time had been afforded to procure
| the witnesses and that the resources
1 OL tHc Stdtc Oh SdilIOTuld WcIc SUI
ficient to obtain them wherever they
might be and he would grant the
dismissal on the grounds of insult
| ficient evidence to sustain the
charges made against Gillett.
Sheriff Gillett stated after the
dismissal that he is satisfied but
would have preferred that the trial
had proceeded as he felt certain it
would have resulted in an acquittal
| for him.

Hoover Drafts

Members of the civil service commits

PRINCIPALS in
SHOOTING TELL
VARIED STORIES

LOS ANGELES, -Iov. %. U.H-
Contradictory stories told by the
principals in the ease led authori-
ties to continue today the investiga-
tion of the possible fatal shooting
of Percival G. Watson by his life
long friend, Major Owen Bird,
prominent broker.
Watson, Major Bird and Birds
wife, Laura, all denied that there
was any love element in the affair
and declared the wounding was ac-
Sidental but their recitals differed
cidental but their recitals differed
Bird admitted that he became
angered when Watson intervened in
an argument between Bird and Mrs.
Pird. At the same time he insisted
that when he entered the room with
his revolver he intended only to
scare Watson. Bird said he thought
the weapon was loaded with blank
shells such as he used to start auto
rlobile races.
Until he saw Watson slump to the
floor he had no idea that the gun
was loaded, Bird contended.
All three agreed that Bird, who
had been drinking, became angered
when he entered his home and found
Watson talking to Mrs. Bird.
Watson said he knocked Bird
down when the latter was abusive
to Mrs. Bird.
Bird was held in county Jail to.
day and his wife was in custody as
q material witness.
Physicians said Watson, suffer
ing from wounds in the head, arm
and abdomen, was in critical con-
dition.
