HENEY SCORES VICTORY 1 eeaBBBBSBaWBWa Washington "mdg Buls That Xadiot. ' ment Afmlast Bess on Xs Oood. ' (Wblnrtn Barm f Tbt Jaaraal.) Washington, . Dec $o. Attorney jrrancie . Heney scored, another legal triumph today when Justice Wrlrht of the District of Columbia criminal court overruled tha demurrer of John A. Ben son to tba Indictment reported against him )n connection With alleged publio iana rrauas. Acoordihg to tha flrat count of tha In- dlctment Benson gave Mr. Harlan of tha interior departments bribery money s a nms wnen no report Was upon the flies of th department and before any had even been prepared by the special agents. .This constituted, th flrst,.polnt of the demurrer that at th time "of the giving over or the money. Harlan was under no duty concerning the report " The - opinion of the court aeems to be exact In saying that Harlan was nnder no concrete duty respecting any rar tlcultr report and equally exact In say ing that hs was under an abstract duty wiio respect to an reporta in general. Th abstract duty of aecrecv concern. lng report, tha court ruled, grew out or th nature or his clerkship and was hot dependent upon the existence of reports. Thia duty would have existed although no report had aver existed. Tttm Initlotmant aall .lit ,1 Benson was suspected ot defrauding tha umtea etatea or puduo lands and that special agent of th government had been vordered to Investigate tha matter and report to the appropriate depart. ment for tha purpose of criminal prose eutlon; that it was an official function of tha chief of a division of that da pertinent to consider the report when It was filed. Upon this hypothesis of raci it, oecam. forthwith, aa a matter of law, the duty of that chief to keep th report a secret from Benson. The existence of th duty I therefor auf flcisntly shown, by -the Indictment and the other polnta mad aaalnst tha first count of th Indictment are disposed Of oy mi mowing. . v In conclusion th court said: "Nam ar tna other counts are wanting In any of the avermenta presented by the first and the nrst being sufficient the others ar good also.. .
