I Gran afeles RIOT EVIDENCE GATHERED Attorney Logan, tor Defendants, Proposes to Make Test Case In Snbpena. Sent to II. E. Collier, of St. Johns, One of Accused. Why does District Attorney Cameron subpena -witnesses to appear before the grand Jury when the grand .jury is ot in session? Thla question is being asked by a num ber of citizens who have received sub penas lately. One of them is H. E. Col lier, City Attorney of St. Johns, who was subpenaed lately. to appear yesterday and tell what he knows of the Hindu riot cases. . As florrton Dickfv is to he tried today kor thealleged leading of tho mob againet the dusky-skinned natives of India, Collier could not see the need 1 of testifying before the grand jury, and reported the matter to his attorney, John, F. Logan, who appeared before Presiding Judge Morrow. Attorney Logan asked if the grand Jury were In session, and when told that it is not, said he would make the Collier case a test case to determine whether or not the Dietrict Attorney has the right to issue grand jury subpenas in order to summon witnesses to his office to get Information from them. hr Application for Fees Denied. Complaints have been made that when these witnesses appear, expecting to tes tify before the grand Jury, they' are shunted over to the Federal building to undergo an examination there. Several of them made a demand on Deputy County Clerk Bush yesterday for witness fees, supposing they had given testimony before the grand Jury, but found Instead that they had merely talked to a few attorneys. Attorney Logan intends to file a motion asking that all attorneys appearing with the District Attorney as special prosecu tors, and paid by other parties than the state, be stricken from the record, as he says this is unlawful. He says that It is no more lawful for an attorney to appear as a prosecutor with the District Attorney, while receiving a fee from parties other than the state than It is for the District Attorney himself to re ceive a fee from outside sources, this being against the law. With this motion Mr. Logan intends to file the affidavit of John Van de Bogart. a brother of Ray Van de Bogart, and a half-brother of Gordon Dickey, who swears that he was served with a sub pena June 2 to appear on June 3 at 10 A. M. and testify before the grand Jury in the Gordon Dickey case. The sub pena WM signed, he alleges, by Deputy District Attorney Garland. Faced by Prosecutors. Van de Bogart says he was sent to the Postoffice building, and there confronted by L. L. Levlngs, a private detective, the special prosecutor for the British government, and Assistant District At torney Wyatt. He declares he thought he was compelled to give evidence, an! answered the questions. He was after ward paid the $2.2 fee as a grand jury witness by a money broker, he says. He also names T. Glover, Lee Lane, Roy Garllck, Sherman Cochran, T. J. Murphy and H. L. Bennett as having been sim ilarly subpenaed, and believes .many oth er citizens of St. Johns have been served with eubpenaes. - Attorney Dan J. Malarkey appears with Deputy District Attorneys Fitzgerald and Garland for the prosecution. Assistant I'nlted States District Attorney Wyatt also appearing. Associated with Mr. Lo gan in Dickey's defense are John H. evenson and T. J. Lonergan. K. E. LYTLE GIVES TESTIMONY Director Says He Advised Bank Not to Buy Railroad. E. E. Lytle was on the witness stand before Judge Gatens in the Circuit Court yesterday to testify in the suit of Thomas C. Devlin against the direc tors of the Oregon Trust & Savings Bank. S. W. Stryker and Dr. J. F. Red dy. as to his own connection with the Pacific & Eastern Railroad deal. He said W. H. Moore and W. Cooper Mor ris sent him to look at the road, and that he reported it was worth what the steel would sell for, and advised them not to purchase it. He said he asked at that time if the bank had anything to do with the purchase of the road, and was assured it had not. The entire morning session was oc cupied with the testimony of A. Schulz, one of the Oregon Trust's former book keepers, who told of entries he had made in the bank's books. The attorneys for the defendants completed the cross-examination of Reddy yesterday morning. Reddy thought the stock he sold for $33 100 for C. H. Lewis and E. Hafer would have sold for $250,000 if it had been held for 90 days, this being the stock held by Moore. Morris, Estes and Stry ker when the Pacific & Eastern was or ganized. He thought the Hill interests paid between $300,000 and $400,000 to gain possession of the road.
