MABRAY TRIAL P0S1P0NED
Judge McFherion Vacates Order Fix
ing it December 7.
ACTION ON COURT'S OWN MOTION
Takes Drranar of llnh of Baatnesa,
Klprrlrd l'rellintnary llearlnaa
and to Save Much eed
lettn Kiptnir,
John C. Mabray and other alleged mem
bers of the "big store" gang of swindlers
who were Included In the blanket Indict
ment returned by the federal grand Jury
In Council Bluffs on September 23. will not
be tried at the special term of court called
for December 7. The order setting their
trial for that date has been vacated by
Judge Smith McPherson, who embodies his
reasons for the vacation in a statement
issued by him In connection with the order
which was filed here yesterday morning.
Attorneys for the defendants are given
twenty days In which to file demurrers,
and If the attorneys for the government
and the several defendants cannot agree
on a later date for the trial the cases will
be assigned for trial ton the first day of
the spring term of United States court In
this city, which will open March 8.
A fpoclal jury panel for the Mabray case
was drawn November 1, but the members
will now be notified that their services will
not be required on December 7.
Judge McPherson's Order.
Judge Smith McPherson's order, filed
here yesterday morning, Is as follows:
"The couir, on Its own motion, vacates
the order heretofore made setting the case
against the defendants down for trial De
cember 7, 1W9. Defendants vslil file de
murrers, 1 they Intend to file them at all,
within the next twenty ijays. and If not so
filed the same will be waived. If counsel
on both sides can agree, the trial of this
case will be fixed at a later time; In the
absence of such agreement the case Is
hereby assigned for trial on the first day
of the ensuing term of court, to-wlt: March
8, 1910. The reasons for this order are re
duced to writing and filed herewith.
"Done In open court this November 23,
1W9."
.Statement by the Coort.
Following Is Judge McPherson's state
ment filed with the order:
"This case was at the recent term In 1
September fixed for trial December Tth.
There are something like seventy-five de
fendants. I am advised that ten or fif
teen of the defendants have been arrested
snd are either In Jail or on bond. I as
sume that many of the. defendants never
will be arrested, but of course I do not
know as to this. I assume that still pthers
will be arrested In addition to those al
ready in custody. Some ot the defendants
have but recently been arrested In other
states and are now fighting orders to re
move them to this district for trial, and
which applications for'"removal have not
as yet beefi finally decided. I am advised
by counsel for some ot the defendants,
Including the defendant Mabray, that de
murrers will be filed to the Indictment
upon the grounds both as to substance and
form. These demurrers have not as yet
been filed. As, of course, If those de
murrers should be filed and sustained, the
cases would be resubmitted to the grand
Jury, which cannot convene ujitll next
March.
Expense Would De Great.
"As to some of the defendants who have
but recently been arrested, I am advised
that motions for continuances will be filed.
The expenses for this trial will be very
great and will take much time. More
than one trial should be avoided If at all
possible. Witnesses must be brought from
far distant states, and they have already
been subpoenaed. To try some of the de
fendants in December and some at tho
next term works great Inconvenience both
to the court and to the officers and to
the witnesses, as well as duplicating the
expense of the case, with the government
to pay. (
"I am now busy at Des Moines Jn the
midst of a term of court, with the proba
bilities of my work there lasting until De
cember 4, before which time I could have
no opportunity to consider these demurrers
and pass upon them. In the meantime the
witnesses would be present for the trial
December 7.
"In view of all the foregoing facts I
have determined on my own motion to va
cate the order for trial December 7, and
direct that demurrers be ftlad within the
next twenty days, and I will then fix a
time for hearing the same at Council
Bluffs, and later on, fix a time for the
trial, If the time can be arranged by agree
ment, and If this cannot be done, the oases
will be set down for trial on tha first day
of the ensuing term of court, namely,
March 8, laid."

ALASKA COAL LAND CLAIMS
Porest Supervisor Says No Real De
velopment Work Has Been Done.
LETTER PLACED IN EVIDENCE
pefendanta Say It Shows Improper
Interference br the Forestry
Bureau In Land Office
Affairs.
SEATTLE, Wash., Novs 24.-Wllllam A.
Langllle, forest supervisor, continued his
testimony today In the Inquiry Into the
validity of the Cunningham coal land
claims, and told of his Inspection of the
claims last August, when he found pros
pect holes on most of the claims, but no
real development work.
Mr. Langlllo's evidence was virtually the
samu , as that of Andrew Kennedy, the
S vtrnment coal expert.
A letter from Ueurge II. Cecil, acting
district forester at Portland, Ore., to F. hi.
Ames, a forestry bureau agent In Alabka,
was Introduced today. The letter, whicn
attorneys for the defendants say shows
Improper Interference by the forestry bu
reau with land offices, follows;
Dear Ames: There Is considerable evi
dence that the claimants In Uie above
cases (Cunningham claims) are not only
trying to gel valuable coal lands fraudu
lently, but are attempting to secure In ad
dition to the coal claims, timber lands, for
tho purpose of supplying timber to work
their mines. Clarence Cunningham, in one
of his reports to the stockho.dtrs, admits
that four of the claims are more valuable
for timber than for coal, so the depart
ment has secured a continuance of the
cases In order to Investigate thoroughly.
Special Agents Stoner and Kennedy are
now on the ground and will be Instructed
by Mr. Olavis to co-operate with you fully.
They, of course, are in charge of the In
vestigation and, so far as possible, their
suggestions should be followed. It will
be necessary to have an estimate of all
the timber upon all these claims. For this
purpose, Mr. langllle has been authorized
to employ temporarily assistants In mak
ing the estimates. The general l.ind offloe
has requested that this examination be ex
pedited as much as possible.
The forester has authorized the appoint
ment of Gabriel Wlngate as coal agent, to
examine the claims In order to ascertain
which claims contain workable coal and
which are valuable for timber only.
Tha government virtually concluded the
examination of Its witnesses In the Alaska
coal land Investigation today, and It Is
probable that the Seattle sitting will be
concluded tomorrow, when the special com
missioner will adjourn the hearings to
Spokane.
It now seems certain that L. It. Glavls,
former chief of the field division of the
general land office here, will not be called
as a witness by the government. Although
he has been a constant attendant at the
hearing, Mr. Glavls was called on by the
government only to Identify a letter written
by him to J. M. Sheridan, av government
attorney.

ment against the Wabash railroad and Its
predecessor, the Toledo & Wabash railroad.
These claims originally aggregated )300,

The claims today represented were first
sued upon In 1881, and have been twice to
the United States supreme court. They
were barred from participating In the lion
on the property under which the Compton
estate benefits. Answer was made that
these claimants are not entitled to such
Judgment against the present Wabash com
pany, which acquired the property at fore
closure sale, prior to which Compton's
claim had been perfected In the state
courts.

cane Juice slightly diluted with the sap
