Deseret News: The trial of Chief Sheets did not ootn up before Judge Bishop this morning, in accordance with the wlshee of the defense. The investigation will commence Monday morning nt 10 o'clock. Judge B. B. Thurman, who ss been In Nevada on mining business, hu returned and no further Interruptions or delays are now expected. it has been hinted In a mom or leu vague fashion that Chief Sheets' resignation comes upon the condition that ho will not be prosecuted upon the charge of accepting bribes pr other charges which have and may ba laid agalust him as a result of developments in the MeWhirter scandal. In this way the Impression hu lieen crest .1 that the prosecution will be dropped upon his resignation as chief of the Balt Ijike City police department. It ran be announced authoritatively that Chief Bheets and others implicated In the MeWhirter robbery and subsequent affairs' will have te face trial, as th state Is sick and tired of the whole scandal and wants the truth, whether black or not, known and guilty parties put where they belong ud Innocent parties cleared. The Sheets trial was set for today, with the understanding this date might be changed If Judge Thurman wu out of the city. Aa Mr. Thurman, Bheets attorney, has not yet returned from a trip Into Nevada. It la n the cards that the trial will be postponed. It Is the declaration of one on the inside, and who can speak for the prosecution, thnt th Investigation of the MeWhirter and subsequent affairs will not be dropped with the stepping out of Balt Lakes disgraced chief of police. He Is but one of several under a shadow and simply because he Is surrendering the office he Is charged with using for Illicit purposes, is no reason why the state should allow the matter to come to an end. which would be entirely unsatisfactory to ell decent cltlieiis. The prosecution hu not been carrying on an investigation of what is becoming blacker every day to get the head of Chief Bheets or of any other official, explained the Insider" this morning. His stepping down should not bring the Investigation to an end, and It lent going to. If any crime or crimes have been committed, the guilty parties must suffer. Chief Bheets will be brought to trial whether he resigns or not. PARK IMPROVEMENTS CITY SOME SAY BLIGHT, OTHERS NO BLIGHT.
