In addition to the bill of exceptions to be filed In the ease upon which may be based a motion for arrest ofJudtynent the de fendants have about BOO pases of assign ment of errors. The fourth chapter in the big land trial Id which W. O. Comstock. Bartlett Rich ards, Charles C. Jameson and Aqullla Trtp lett are the defendants, and who were found giillty of conspiracy to defraud the government ot the United States out of use, possession and title to large areas of public Ifcnds In Sheridan county, began Fri day morning in the argument on the mo tion for a new trial before Judge W. H. Munger of the federal court. R. B. Hall, principal attorney for the de fendants, offered a bill or exceptions, the general tenor of which was a plea for sep arate trials for his clients. This the court overruled and told Mr. Hall he could have ten day to file his exceptions. Hall did not want this, but asked time to read the full record, which he said he had been un able to procure until a day or two ago. Exceptions re. taken to the alleged fact the jury was under urvlllanc of court officers. "This exception will ( overruled." said Judge Munger. "You enn the bill today If yo wltth. The order of the court will be, however, thut the d. -fondants will be given flvs days In whUit to file Its bill of exceptions, tbe goveriin-.int teji days to an swer and three days afterwards the. mat ter will be submitted to the court." -. Mr. Hall Is the court now ready to hear the argument on the motion for a new trial? PIrw Whei Ready Gridtey. The Court Tea, proceed. Mr. Hall then went Into an extensive argument relative to the examination of the jury summoned to try the cases and said: "It occurred to me at the time as singular that so many of the Jury Were well In formed as to the land laws. They were asked, to which the government objected and the objection was sustained. If they considered It, fraudulent for ,an entryman to accept fees for filing and ofher expenses from other partita The court mads this examination of Itself In several Instances and said that such an act would not be a crime. More than half the jury were ex amined on . that Question and then the examination was stopped, which, I think, was a grievous, erroneous and dangerous error. I cite this simply to how the limi tations put on the examination of the Jurors. The Court If an objection wa properly sustained by the court ten times it is Juat as affective as If It was sustaolned but onoe. If It woe- Improperly sustained it was as Improper at one time as It wouk' be at another. Worala of aetlaa, Mr. Hall then went cults extensivo:. Into the wording of the questions ackc the Jury, particularly as referred to the.r oonoepllon of 'what constituted a fraudu lent act against the land laws and by ;hi means proposed to show that' certain Jurors had ytry pronounced views on the matter and were consequently not proper persons to sit on a jury of this character. Mr. Hall repeated the plea that he had not had time to go over the record, and the court t,U Llm ho had had thru months, asking him' how. much, more time H would take him to read it. This mighty case whlph has convulsed this part of the country with Its army of secret service men, has not produced one scintilla of evidence connecting my client with any crime," asserted Halt with some fervor. "Different things and. Inno cent acts has given rise to the conclusion that the sum of them Is guilt" Denies Evidence of Crime. Mr. Hall finished hla argument about l:S0 o'clock In the afternoon and- was followed by H. C. Brome. The gist ot Mr. Brome's argument was that not a particle of evi dence had been produced connecting either of the defendants with any criminal act, particularly with any transactions In which I. D. Hull acted as the alleged agent In procuring soldiers to make filings on the lands. Judge A. W. Crltes argued alolng similar lines. , "No one had sworn, that he was bound by any contract or agreement to transfer the land to either of these defendants," said Judge Crlfes. "No soldier' entry was followed up by final proof. ' "The Jury did not give the evidence the consideration It deserved. It was out but an hour and thrco-ju:irters. The men on trla,l should not bey convicted by prejudice and a statement that could not be contro verted or met. These, witnesses were trot charged with being co-conspirators, but were brought here as witnsase to estab lish an ofTenoe agnlnjt ahese defendants. We couldl not meet such a question in the face of that Jury. The laws of conspiracy ore a menace to noeny in met part or tn country where any Innocent act can be construed by an unfriendly influence Into a crime." Ample Proof, Says Hoik, Special Assistant District Attorney Rush In closing the argument for the govern ment, said: "In my ' opinion there has been ample evidence to support the verdict of the Jury. Ihe Jury was Instructed property and fairly by the court. The question of the Ineligibility of the jury because ot the jurors' knowledge of the law Is a puerile one. If that rule were to be applied uni versally we could nover get a Jury In an case satisfactory to a Jury lawyer. Th discretionary power of the court Is not t reviewable matter. Tho question of goiny. on and living on the land Is a question ol Intent and does not refer to the partlcullai time the entry la ma do. No error can tx predicted upon such intent.- 1 think w have shown a combination by circum stances and fact and from which au agree ment can be easily Inferred." Mr. Hall asked for a few closing words. He sold: "I do not like the way la which we have if . OFFEE ULS LEAVE WHEN YOU USE POSTUM "There's a Reason." Oet the tittle book.

I think the Jury la this caae de cided too many questions of law." Judge Munger then announoed that he would pass upon ths motion at 10 o'clock Monday morning. - , HANDICAP OF BEING TWINS Arthar Cross and Ed Beebe Have ' riaay Butbarrasalaa limes Be- eatese of laallarlty. ""You are a fine one," remarked a young woman but evening to Arthur Gross in front of the poetomce. Mr. Gross had no recollection of having a photograph of ths younr woman among his galaxy of female )lkrnus-s, nor could he remember ever having seen the person before. But he deigned to answer. "I don't quits understand you," responded Gross. "You want to get out ot It, do you?" the young woman continued. "Get out of what?" Gross Interrogated. "Why, you know you promised to attend that dance last evening. I held three dances for you, but you didi not mine," the young woman responded. Gross felt a brain storm coining on. "Tou evidently are niUtalLn. I woe not Invited to any dance, did not Intend going to any dance and I do not remember ever having seen you before. My name Is Ar thur Gross. Might I have the honor of knowing your name and where you met me before?" Gross added. "Goodness gracious. I though you were Ed Beebe. Tou must be his brother, or cousin, or some relation. I am very sorry I spoke to you," the young woman ex plained. This Is only one of tbe many amusing Incidents arising from the striking sim ilarity between Arthur Gross and Ed Beebe, both Omaha yuung men. They attended high school together. One evening Beehe was to take a young woman to a party. Gross heard of that appointment and was on the scene before Beebe. The young woman did not know the difference and actually accompanied Gross to the func t. When Beebe called at the young woman's borne he found It bard V convince tbe parents that he had not been there ten minutes before and left with their daughter. Beebe, however, hurried to the party and sought out Miss B., who wai nonplussed. She did not know which one of the doubles tn hand a lemon. .

A reason has been found for holding no more trials of members of the Omaha Coal exchange, charged with Conspiracy In re straint of trad. There are two reasons, according to the county attorney. One 1 the fact that the Indictment undar which 8. E. Howell and James A. Sunderland were tried Is faulty and weak, as polnti-d out by Judge Troup In the trial of Sunder land. Tbe other Is thst the esse of Howell Is now pending and wl'l likely go to the rupreme court.
