He asked for the dismissal of the case. The Court Determined. Said Judge Mu Thy: "The complaint charges this man a most detestable crime. It seems to me that the defendant could not afford a dismissal of this action except on Its own merits. "I have made it an invariable rule never ter dismiss a case without the recommendation of the prosecutor and do not propose to break that rule in this case. It is apparent to me that the witnesses in this case are determined to defy the doud. I will put them all in Jail Just so sure as they fall to obey the subpoenas when properly served.

I can see no reason for reducing the amount of ball and this case will be continued until tomorrow morning." . n, |
