DOYLE GIVEN A NEW TRIAL Judee Adraiu Matr.rial Error in One of His Inrtractiona in the Case. FINDS NO MISCONDUCT ON PART OF JURY ole liroand for Sew Trial Ike Krrnr of the taart. All the Other Claim of Doyle Relna Juue Tliorm II In district court yestei. duy nfternnon handed down hi deelrion fc-ranting the plaintiff a new trial in the famous Colorado mining suit of Jsme Doyle against Janus F. Ruin, former president of the Portland Oold Mining company. Doyle In his application for a new trial chanted Burns witli attempting lo tamper with the jury nnd to brlneing- outside In fluence to bear on them. Judge Thotnell In hi decision wholly exonerated the Jury and granted the nw trial on the gTOund alone of hi having erred In one of hi intmctons to the Jury. The Instruction In which the court ad mitted having erred in giving it to the Jury was No. H, which was as follows: It is eluimed by th- defendsnt that the plaintiff located the Portland claim nhout January 22. 1M2. In the name of James Doyle & 'o., and that the defendant had no Interest In the location thereof, and that about Msrrh 2. the defendant located s claim called the Professor Orulih. and that about March 14. ISC he fthe defendant) traded a one-half Interest in the professor Orubhs claim to the plaintiff for a one-half interest In the Portland claim, and that, in pursuance of said Mereement. the nmes of both the plaintift and the defendant ete inserted In the location certificates of both of said cl.-ilms and that be'ore said agreement of exchange of one-half of the Professor Hi ebb claim for one-half of the Portland claim he it he defendant I had no interest in the Portland, and the Muintlff had no Interest In the Prolessor Orublis. Now. if the evidence shows that the. de fendant had no Interest in ttie Portland prior to March, 1H9Z. and that the plaintiff then iigreed to. or did. trade or exchange with the defendant, giving a one-half in terest in the Portland for a one-half in lereat In the Professor Mruhhs claim, this would be so Inconsistent with the plain tiff's claim that he and the defendant en tered into the conti-nct in question on Feb ruary 2. TM. that veu would not be Justi fied in flndlnc thut said Februarv I con tract was mnde lietween the parties, and in that event vour verdict should be for the defendant. But whether such an-ex- chanae was in fact ma between said parties in March. IMC. uuestloti of fart to be derided bv von from all of the evidence bearinit thereon. Where Krrwr Arlaea. P.egarditig his itlmlt-d error in giving tne jury this instruction Judge Thornell s'd as toPows: Instruction No. 14 is objected to on the cronnd that It Invades the province of the Jury bv instrucilng them that they must draw a cerlatn inference of fact from other tacts. If such other facts are shown. The plaintiff brings suit on a contract that he claims was made about February J. 1W1 under which he claims It was agree-d be tween htm and rurns that each should own one-half, share and share alike. In all min ing claims then owned by them or that should be acquired by them In the future.. lloth parties had an interest In the Port land claim Hnd the question how that ln . . .... ...niiirwd is onlv an evidential matter bearing upon the question whether the contract of February li, ciaunea bv the plaintiff was made Th Februarv 2 contract and that of March 4. by which the defendant ciajms half Interests In the fortiano: nno i rynepm.i ( en.Kl.u elalros wre tnuied. Willie ex. trrmelv inconsistent, might both have been made if the parties did not understand the scope and meaning of the first contract. The making of the second, contract would not, as a matter of law. show that the first was not tn.id.-. The existence of the aecond contract would be strong evidence that the first was not male, but the force of the Inference would lie for the Jury- and pot the court to determine. This Inconsistency, if shown, was a mere evidential fact and not a conclusion of law. and In saving what loive and eff.-ct should be given it tli court invaded the province of the jury. The submission to the Jury ot I lie second special mining ssaui vno"-u lention to the matter contained in the fourteenth instruction and enipliasixed a mere matter of evidence as an ultimate and controlling fact in the case. Jary la Commended. Referring to the charges of alleged mis conduct on the part of the Jury and the al leged attempts made to influence the mem bers of It, Judge Thornell hsd this to say: It is asserted that some of the jurors were intoxicated oi under the influence of Intoxicants while In the Jury box. I ob served the- Jury closely. I was among them at everv rece. nd morning, noon and night. 1 am not without experience in sucn matters. And I do aot believe that any of the Jury e-ould have heen under the In fluence of intoxicating liquors while in the jurv box without niv knowing it. 1 regret verv much that the jurors have been ubje -ted to such severe criticism as bus been made in this case, as I believe that all of these criticisms as to thiiif moral conduct me without merit. 1 be liee. on the whole, the Jury were above the average In character and ability. I do not say that things were not aaid and done in the presence of the Jury by the agents of the parties that oughi not to tmce liceu saul uml done. 1 du not say that some jurot did not make statements he oti.'lil mil lii have mini. From the cll- etiiiiMiance disdotrd by the e Idcne I l It i iiic sons-' such statements wen- made and statements that might, and would. In my judgment, afl-ct the validity of the verdict. The allele re old in this respeet shows that the court made a mistake at the very outset of this oase m not ordering that tha jury be kept together under the charge of a swoiu onu-ei. not m-reiy to guaraagainai misconduct of the jury, but to prevent otrer pcisoiis from .toil. a tilings ou which charges of misconduct might lie baaed. tfeorge 8.

PRaoKII tTTEMPT It I I.M MM: Alia est It each the Oatalde Before They Are Dlnroierril. A second attempt on the (tart or some of his wards to saw their way to liberty wss frustrated yesterday morning by County Jailer Gallup. Th prisoners Implicated had , succeeded in sawing half way through one I of the bars of an outer window on the j south side of the building when dlscov- i ered. j Charles SNevenstin and Charlea Uoyd, under IndlcAnent for robbing two pawn- I brokers; Arthur lvi. under joint indict- ment with Pat e'rowe on the charge of i holding up two motor trews last July, and i James Arthur, awaiting his second trial for alleged complicity in the attempt to j rob ths Treynnr hank, were the prisoners j confined on th third floor where the at- tempt was made, Cbarles Stevenson, who i wa the ringleader In the former recent j attempt to break Jail, admitted yesterdiiy that he planned the attempt to saw through the outer window.. Arthur, in the I opinion of Jailer Gallup and Sheriff Can- j nlng. was not implicated. With the steel spring: or "shsnk" from ! nc tf his shoes Stevenson succeeded In j .nunufacturing a small saw, the handle of which was made of two pieces of kindling wood tied together with twine. With this Improvised tool Stevenson managed to saw thtousli the liolt of the padlock on the door leading into the outer corridor. Once In the outer corridor access to the outer window on the south side was easy and Stevenson and hi accomplices met with little difficulty in sawing through the iron bar and were half way through with the Job when discovered by Jailer Gallup. A few minutes longer and they would have hsd the bar sawed through. The drop I from this window to the gmss plot below would have been less than twenty feet. Stevenson made no denial of the fact that he planned the attempted Jail break. He has already served three terms In the state prison and he renllxe that If con victed this time he may be sent up under the habitual criminal act. which will prob ably mean a twenty-year sentence. On the occasion of the former attempted jail break Arthur is said to have tried to dissuade hi fellow prisoner from at tempting it and this leads the sheriff and Jailer Gallup to believe that he had no hand in yesterday s attempt. rasTe Bice.
