Without a dissenting vote among the seven justices, the court sustained the appeilate court in its decision that the indictment upon which Schmitz was convicted was defective, in that it did not aver that Schmitz was mayor, that Ruef, his co-defendant, was a po, litical boss, practically in control of jthe city, that as such they were in a | | Caldwell, Idaho—IiIn the district | |; court here on Tuesday, the assassin |} of Frank Steunenberg, former govcommittee, Hyde, in discussing this ernor of Idaho, Harry Orchard, whose controversy, is alleged to have called | startling confession made public in Kemp a Har.
