BWKKIl M'liRKKVY IS SF.T 1'HKK Jadare Chnritfs Prosecution with Had Faith aail Dlamlssea Casea. rtASSFTf. Neb.. April 21. (Specliil Te aram.) Exposing his dlsspproval of the action of the ronipl.tlnltit witrss ami hlnt- Ina at bad faith In the prosecutions, Judge Westnver tonlKlit dlHinlesed eight cases of the state of Nebraska against lfc-rnard MeGreevy, which were transferred from Holt county to this county on a change of venue and were to have been tried at this term. A Jury whs empaneled In one of the rasea Friday afternoon, and this morning when the trtul waa about to be commenced a recess waa requested and the day waa consumed ny complaining wit nesses and counsel of defendant In trying to effect a settlement. These casea grew out of the falluie of the Elkhorn Valley bank of O'Nell. of which the defentant was preHldent. At the time of the failure MeOreevy. with Patrick Hagerty. the cashier, fled and MeOreevy was later cap tured In Arizona and brought back. It appears that the complaining witnesses were unable to agree among themselves on terms of settlement, though It Is re ported that an offer was made by de fendant's counsel which would have re sulted practically In payment In full of the Indebtedness of the bank. The attempt at settlement waa wholl;- between the com plulnlng witnesses and counsel for de fendant and the prosecuting attorney, and the court was In no way connected with It. Court reconvened tonight at 9 o'clock ami Judge VMir expressed tils dis approval of the action of tha complaining witnesses and stated that It was Ida opin ion no convictions could be secured In the cases on account of the fact that It had become known that the casus were not aeemlngly being prosecuted In good faith. He declared that not another dollar of Holt county money should be used In pros ecuting these caves and he thereupon sum marily dismissed all of the casea on his own moil. m and discharged the defendant. In his statement he full exonerated County Attorney Mullen, who waa leading counsel fur the state. The April term of district court for Rock county has been In session all week and adjourned tonlalit to reconvene April 25.
