Admi-s'lon of Tcllnionj ot
Man I nikr Indictment for
Same Offence.
VANCOUVER. B. C, April :. StronR
rfforts wjrt made In the Supreme
Court today bfor JuMkf Murphy to
iuah the order of Judse Grant for
the extradition of Bernard F. O'Neil to
lilaho. there to far m rharge of hav
ing vlsrned false balance sheets of the
State Bank of Commerce of Wallace.
O Nell s counsel. S. 8. Taylor, on an
application for habeas corpus, attacked
the validity of the warrant asking for
the. surrender of O'Neil. and on an ap
plication for certiorari proceeding Is
having; the entire record of the case
in extradition court reviewed. Anion;
the. objections made by Mr. Taylor to
the extradition proceeding's Is that not
a single wttnees had been called to
prove criminality, although the act
calls for the hearing of evidence. He
met Mr. Farris' reply that depositions
are allowed In the alternative to oral
evidence by sarins that the depositions
produced were not the record of the
actual evidence riven. He fta.14 that
Wyman'a testimony showed that, after
all the browbeating and threatening- of
witnesses was done, and the replies
extorted, the state authorities wove the
replies Into narrative form and had It
Kigned by the witness. He objected
also to the evidence of Wyman beinc
accepted at all. as Wyman waa under
Indictment for the same offense.
Taylor concluded hla argument by
askins If better treatment could not
be. provided for O'Neil in the provincial
Jail at New Westminster. He a.serted
that the prisoner was frequently de
nied th privilege of receiving friends,
j. w. PeB. Farris. who appeared for
the Idaho authorities. aM the Jail was
so crowded that better accommodations
for O'Neil could not be found.
Justice Murphy took the case under
advisement.
