Keeson, County Judge. William C. Ramsey, Attorney. DC DC i Ed LIQUOR SELLING I Charges Against Edward Rynott Hotly Contested. DECIDES IN FAVOR OF RYNOTT Justice Archer Finds the Evi dence Insufficient to Convict the Defendant. From Wednesday's Dally, The case of the State against Ed Rynott. charged with Illegal sales of Intoxicating liquor on February 11, 12 and 13 to young Killings and J. Kutler, was threshed out yesterday before Judge Archer In an all-day session, the argument being closed at 5 o'clock, wlun the court adjourned, taking the case under advisement until today or tomorrow, but stating that he would hand down a decision Just as soon as possible. The state had Its Interests looked after by County Attorney Taylor, while M. Goring defended. The witnesses put on by the state were the complaining witnesses, Sam Killings and James Kutler, and J. M. I-eyda and James Mauzy. While the defendants called Sheriff Quinton, Walter Trumphour, C. II. Taylor and Ed Rynott. Killings and Rutler testified to procuring whisky at the Rynott drug B'tore at the Instigation of Sheriff Quinton and J. M. Leyda; that they took the liquor to the office of Mr. Ieyda and turned It over to him and the sheriff. On Saturday and Mon day nights Killings testified he pro cured the liquor from James Mauzy, clerk in the store at the time, and the witness testified that no questions were asked as to the use the liquor was to be put to. On Sunday night they entered the store and Kutler procured the whisky from Rynott, who handed him the half pint which was already wrapped up. No questions were asked, according to Rutler's statement on the stand. Leyda was sworn and corroborated In part the testimony of the other two, so far as he could remember. He also produced the three flasks of liquor, which he said he and the sheriff received from Kutler and Kil lings. These were sealed up and the affidavit of Leyda attached as to the facts of the procuring, date and circun-stance. Mr. Mauzy was sworn and testified that he did not remember whether he asked Hillings what he wanted the liquor for or not, but thought he did as he had strict Instructions from Mr, Rynot not to sell any Intoxlcalng liquor for oher than for medical, me chanical or sacremental purposes. He remembered making the entry In the register, 'sold for medicine, near the time the sale was made. He further testified that Mr. Rynott was not in the store at the time the sale In either case was made, on Saturday or Monday evening. Mr. Rynutt testified in his own be half that he sold the half-pint to Rut- I l?" on ine evening or reDruary u. I That he distinctly remembered that he told Kutler when asked for the half pint, that "this Is Sunday," and Kutler replied, '"I want It for medi cine, and I am going right home." Mr. Gerlng of Omaha testified In the case, as did Mr. Quinton and Mr. Taylor. The sheriff wns very slow and cautions In Ms replies, and evi dently had a high regard for the sacredness of an oath, as he In verably had counsel to be explicit as to what men and what store was re ferred to In the Interrogatories. The sheriff's manner of testifying was very expasteratlng to defendant's counsel, who seemed anxious to get at the truth. County Attorney Taylor wns asked but few questions, and many of the questions were objected to as Inr material and the objection sustained Mr. Taylor made It plain, however, that he had had nothing to do with the case until Mr. I-eyda brought Into bis office the three flasks and the affidavits of Killings and Kutler, when he had drawn the complaint filed in the rase. When the evidence was In the county attorney took but a few min utes In arguing for the binding over of the defendant, and cited but one authority. Mr. Gerlng occupied more than an hour and cited numerous authorities to the court. Mr. Gerlng scathingly arraigned the sheriff and J. M. Leyda, the first oathbound to preserve the peace, In using tho method they had in stirring up litiga tion, Bnd In hiring Kutler and Kil lings to Induce Rynott to commit a crime. Mr. Gerlng did not mince words In the least, and no one could fall to understand his biting cart-asm when directed at the officer of the law responsible In pnrt for the persecution of nn honest man, who bad come Into our inldt to try to' mnkn a llvlne for hla wife and chll dren. Mr. Gerlng argued that the Rl8 made by .lames Mauzy could nut CASE in any manner be held to incriminate his employer, should the court find that such sales had liecti made in violation of law. Mr. Gerlng cited ... many Indian cases to this point, as well as Nebraska cases. On the sale alleged ta have ben made on Sunday to Kutler, Mr. Coring argued that the word of Rynott was certainly much better than a man who was unknown here, and that this count was the only one there could be any question about, and the evidence was so weak that no Jury would convict upon It. N. R Since the above was put In type Judge Archer has handed down his decision and finds that there was not probable cause to hujd the de fendant, and found for Mr. Rynott. IOIISYII.LK Courier.
