MOTIONS TO JACATE ORDER
David E. Thompson Asks Supreme
Court to Withdraw Caie.
ATTACKS JUDGE M. B. REESE
Plaintiff's Attorney Assert that
Chief Justice' Flndlnars Are
Told anil Not Legally
' Mndo.
LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 10.-(JSpcclal.)-
In supremo court, David E, Thomp
son, appellant In tho suit Against the
Jones National bank and the Dunk of
Staplehurst, through his attorneys. Stout,
Rose Ss Wells, has filed motions to .
vacate tho order for a rehearing entered
January 7, 1914, to vacate tho order en-
tered Slay 17, 1913, and to correct the
record and make the entries of tho pro
ceedings In tho cause correctly recite
tho proceedings had by tho court, and '
to order a mandate to carry into effect
Its previous Judgment of reversal and
dismissal.
Tho motions filed by the attorn.ev for
Thompson will bo called for a hearts at
the convening of the court tho j:ornln?
of January 19, copies having beer served.
In hlB motion to vacate, tho order or
tho supreme court, Mr. Thcafvson shows
by affidavits that M. B. Rej, chief
justice, was disqualified to. sit lu tho.
hearing of the oases and that he had
previously so stated. Ills disquriricatlon
wo due to tho fact that In do love,
court and prior to the time of goig upon
tho supremo court bench, he had been
counselled by some of the parties to tne
cases.
Notwithstanding the disqualification ot
tho chief justice of the supremo court, the
affidavits charge that ho. participated In
the .hearing In supremo court.
At this hearing in tho sup!Se court,
the qualified members of tho bench were
divided three and three. It was thcii
that Chief Justice Reese came Into th
case and voted with the members who
voted In favor of the order, making tho
voto four for and three agaist.
Court Knew About It, .
It Is alleged that the disqualification
of the chief Justice to sit in, .or perform
any judicial function In tho c&bo was
within the knowledge ot the court , and
all of tho members thereof, by reason
of tho fact that the chief Justice had
publicly stated la open court. In pres
ence of all of the members ot the bven,
that ho 'had been counselled by parties
to tho suit, and for that reost&t wVs dis
qualified. Attorneys for Thompson further allege
that in tho report to the opinions
delivered on the occasion of the rendi
tion of the final judgment ot reversal,
the chief Justice did alt and participate
In the proceedings. They also charge
that they never consented to Chief
Justice Reese participating In the final
hearing. They also show that there were
six members' of the bench qualified to
hear the case and render judgment and
that In order for a quorum to be present
at tho deliberations. It was not necessary
for the chief justice to take part in. tho
proceedings and determination ot tho
issues.
The attorneys charge that in the course
followed by the chief justice,' ho pro.
ceeded In direct violation ot the laws of
the stato and that consequently tho find
ings ot the court are void and that
the orders heretofore entered should bp
set aside.

NEW YORK, Jan. lO.-Two arrests
were made today on Information fur
nished by detectives employed by copper
mine owners to Investigate alleged false
affidavits obtained here from so-called
thugs and strong-arm men who said thoy
wero engaged by the mine owners to
work at the scene of the mine strike in
Michigan. The district attorney's office

made affidavits have sworn that their
signatures on these documents were
forged.

trict attorney the evidence, said he had
been employed by James McNaughton,
general manager of tho Calumet & Hecla
Mining company, and Theodore Dangler,
general manager of tho Mohawk Mining
company, both of Michigan. He turned
over to the prosecutor what purported to
be receipts signed by various persons ac
knowledging the receipt of sums ranging
from X1.50 to 5 paid by Martin and Smith
for tho signing of affidavits.
Ho charged that the Western Federa
tion of Miners employed Martin and
Smith and other agents to buy these af
fidavits in tho slums of New York.

blank affidavit forms, which, they said,
the miners' agents paid men to sign and
mica in afterward. They showed copies
of such an affidavit bearing the name
or James Qreeley and 'then produced
ureeiey, who swore in the district at
