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.
