1 J'HE MORNING OREGONIAK. WEDNEBDAY, DECEMBEE U, IfOf. TRIALS TO i Judge Bellinger Rules Against Defense. CRIMES MAY BE PROVED Must Show That Defendants Are Again in Jeopardy, JURY TO BE CHOSEN TODAY Attorneys for Defense In Land-Fraud Cases Argue That Their Clients Are Being Tried Twice for the Same Offense. The forlorn hope led by Thomas O'Day and Charles E. Hardy for the defense In the land-fraud trial has seen dashed aside by the decision of Judge Bellinger, and the case -will go to trial this morning at 10 o'clock. It Is expected that the jury will be socured early In the afternoon and that the first witness can be exam' ined by the prosecution by the time the court adjourns for the day. Neither the prosecution nor the defense wish to waste time, as all are tired with the long strain of the previous trial. The case wili be hurried through so that it will be out of the way by the Christmas holidays. Whon Judge Bellinger convened court j-esterday morning Judge O'Day asked that he be allowed to file his plea of previous convtctloitj and that the similar petition filed by Mr. Hardy be argued in conjunction with the argument upon the plea of the other defendants. Before this could be done, however, the court over ruled the previous motion of the defend ants, asking for a new trial, and denied their petition for arrest of judgment. Judge O'Day then filed his plea of for mer conviction, former jeopardy and ad judication, in behalf of the defendants, and the plea was considered demurred to by the prosecution and was argued. In stating his argument. Judge O'Day paid that the defense In entering the plea was proceeding on the theory that the Government could not carve out a small offense' from the greater, and then, hav ing once convicted the defendants upon that charge, turn again to the large of fence and try the parties over again upon the same charge. The Indictment of the Government had alleged that the defendants were guilty of a crime against the Government, be cause they had entered Into a conspiracy to defraud the Government out of a por tion of Its public lands in township 11 south of range 7 east, and that the date of the conspiracy so charged was March 20, 190L Upon this indictment the defend ants had once been tried and convicted. At this time now comes the prosecution and attempts to try the same defendants upon the same charge under a different indictment, the attorney declared. The second conspiracy was alleged to have been formed on April 1, 1901, and the Government alleged that the defendants "did conspire together to defraud and de prive the Government of a portion of its public lanis by means of forged and fic titious entries." Under the second indict ment the defendants could be tried for having defrauded the Government out of any lands in the state, whether in town ship 11 south of range 7 east or any other place. The Indictment was general and covered the whole state. Under it the defendants could be tried for the same offense upon which conviction had been had, the same evidence could be used and the parties would be twice put in jeopardy for the same offense. Judge O'Day's Argument. This fact was claimed as a bar by Judge O'Day. who argued that the defendants, under the law, could not be tried twice for the same offense, or could not be tried upon facts growing out of the former in dictment. This argument also applied to the case of Marie "Ware, who had once been tried upon a charge of having con spired to defraud the Government out of lands in township 11 south of range 7 east, and had, upon the motion of the prosecution, been ordered acquitted. She could not therefore be tried for the same offense again. Mr. Hardy argued the plea of former acquittal for Miss Ware, and stated a number of authorities as bearing on the question. Mr. Heney in his reply stated that the argument included questions of fact and of identity 'of person. The latter was con ceded by the defense and was -therefore eliminated from the argument "Two Offenses," Says Heney. As to Miss "Ware, there has been no tes timony to show that she was a party to the first conspiracy; there had been no evidence tending to connect her with the first conspiracy, and for that reason she could not well claim to have been once in jeopardy. It was not the same conspiracy, but an entirely different offense. The first had been entered into on one date in one part of the state, and having been com pleted, or practically so, the plan to gain the lands in the other sections had been formed, and McKinley and Miss Ware had been taken into the conspiracy thus formed anew. All durlug the trial the defense had objected to the introduction of any evidence other than that bearing directly on township 11 south or 7 east, thus showing that they had recognized the separate offenses. Xow that they had been beaten, they come in and say in chorus that the offense was identical, was his argument The argument was continued by Mr. Hall . and finished by Judge O'Day. Crimes May Be Identical. Judge Bellinger, at the close of the dis cussion, denied the plea and ordered the trial to proceed at the 'opening of court this morning. The court held that there might be many agreements to defraud proved, because there had been many agreements made. But the same proof could not be used to prove 'the different agreements. In that case the court would have to conclude that the crimes were Identical, and order that the jury take such notice. If the facts of the case as tried tend to show a separate agreement then the different offense can be proved and the trial can proceed. Judge Bellin ger, however, stated that while his con victions were positive, his reasons were not entirely clear, inasmuch as there was much to be said upon the side of the de fense, and that he would not make a final and definite statement until later in the trial, as occasion might demand. Married in Haste, Now Repent. Another divorce suit as the result of a -runaway match. In which Lewis R. Trip let seeks to obtain a legal -separation from Kate Trlplett appears on the rec ords of the State Circuit Court The case was filed In Yamhill Cbunty, and the sum mons and complaint were served in this dty upon the defendant by Deputy Sheriff Cordano. The litigants have resided at Carlton, where Trlplett has a hop farm, and they formerly lived in Eastern Ore gon. During the days of their courtship it Is alleged that the father of Mrs. Trlp lett objected to no avail. The young cou ple Insisted upon keeping each other's company, and finally eloped and were married. Now It seems they no longer love, and want the law to sever the nup tial bonds. LIBRARIANS HEBE IN JULY. American Library" Association Sets Date for National Convention. The American Library Association, which will convene in Portland next Sum mer, has announced to Miss Isom, the public librarian, through Its secretary. Dr. E. C. Richardson, of Princeton, N. J., that July 2-8 has been settled upon as the dates of the meeting. Miss Isom and the other delegates who attended the conven tion in St Louis the past Summer were Instrumental in securing the 1903 conven tion for Portland, and It Is hoped that many strides in library work will be made through its coming. One important step in this work In the Northwest will be the formation of an Oregon Library Associa tion, including both college and public libraries, its object being development of the work. The Art Association will probably va cate the upper floor of the Public Library building in March, and the much-needed additional room for book shelves will then be available. The reference and cata loguing departments will be placed on the second floor, and the spaces now occupied by them will be utilized by the circulating department and periodical room. The children's room will probably be moved into the present periodical room, giving it an absolutely necessary enlargement A new library station has been estab lished at Lents with Arthur Gelsler in charge. The Portland staff will undergo some changes. Miss Mabel Hoge takes the place made vacant by Miss Bessie Bross. who has moved to Indianapolis. Miss Dewart, who passed the examination last week, Is serving an apprenticeship. Miss Louise Van Durer, assistant librarian of Steel Memorial Library, of Elmira. N. Y., may come to the Portland Library, having recently passed the examination for that position. FINAL MEETING OF THE YEAR Chamber of Commerce Trustees Ar range for Good Roads Meeting. The board of trustees of the Chamber of Commerce held its final meeting of the year yesterday morning and transacted considerable routine business. At the be ginning of the meeting, which was pre sided over by President "W. J. Burns, a telegram was read from Secretary of State John Hay. in which the Chamber was commended for its recent stand in favor of International arbitration. A communication was received from the Milwaukee (Wis.) Chamber of Commerce asking the adoption of a resolution against uniform bills of lading, such as are about to be adopted by railroad companies. It was urged In the communication that the uniform lading bills are detrimental to the interests of shippers, as they enable the railroad companies to gain immunity from their common-law liabilities as carriers. The question was referred to the com mittee on transportation. The Chamber passed a resolution indorsing House bill No. 9302, lifting the tax from such classes of alcohol as are not used for drinking purposes. An invitation was Issued to President John Scott, of the Oregon Good Roads As sociation asking him to come to Portland next month and speak before the Cham ber on the Important subject of good roads and the work of the association. REFORM PRAISE SERVICE. Massmeeting Will Commend Sher iff's Anti-Gambling CrUsade.

The various religious institutions of tho city arc behind the call, but while a gen eral citizens meeting, and In no way a Municipal Association session, it is gener ally understood that the latter organiza tion Is lending its moral support The meeting will be addressed by promi nent business men and clergymen, and the present municipal conditions will be dis cussed. Confidence in and approval of the actions of, Sheriff Word will be strongly expressed. The question of municipal cor ruption will also find a place on the pro gramme.
