Angus McDonald Found Not GaTty—Adams Case to Be Tried Before
Commissioner Karl Thiel—Arguments Being Heard on Change
of Venue in Case cf WilLam Knox
The cases of the United States against
dam (' Adams, Angus McDonald, John
Uatto, William Knox and Charles Krut
inger, charged with ‘‘ira-pass upon that
certain placer mining claim known as the
Chicago Bench Association, on Mat creak,
in Otter precinct/’ were called for triad by
Commissioner Us rge \Y. Albrecht on Mon
day morning at 10 o’clock. The lir.-t case
to come up wa.: that of Adams.
The cases have attracted a great tie: 1 of
Unction in the district, as they involve
the title to what is known as a very valu
able property, and it is presumed that the
present proceedings are but the preliminar
ies to what may develop into a famous
case. That there are good grounds for this
presumption is boa no out by the fact that
sparring for ado, ant ape was indulged in by
the attorneys for the prosecution and de
feme from th1 outset, and motions f ;r
chance of \onue, recess and adjournment
were lull led at Commis.-inner Albrecht with
.-tartiing fre ineney.
A. L. Mali by represents the defendants
in each case and E. M. Stanton represents
the governne.nt.
Adjournment Taken
A jury had been called for the trial of
Adam-, but the defense sprung a surprise
mi the pirn.--.'cution and the e.-urt by a-king
for a trial before the commiss’,'»nor without
a jury, citing the code of the tend cry to the
effect that uni s-; a jury v;a< c- lied for by
the defendant the commissioner must try
the case. The pr ;. cuti n urenuou.Ty ob
acted to dispensing with th? jury, citin';
authorities to prove that a defendant in a
riminal case could not waive hi- c ui- 'i u
j tic mil right:. In view of the statutory pro
\ idem, however, and in the absence of any
decision directly bearing upon the section
of the code in quo-lion, the commissioner
: disj en-cl with the jury, hil ling that it was
I not within his pr».\i!i;-e to declare an act
I of ti e legislature unconstitutional. The de
! ft'ii-e then moved for a change of venue
i and asked time to prepare affidavits in up
! pert of the motion. Adjournment was
| therefore taken until 2 p. m.
!
Another Adjournment
I At 2 n. ri. the court reconvened and At
, torney St ant' n, for the prosecution, pre
! sented affidavits; i f Thomas P. Aitken, Ilar
.11 Seddcn and M. M. Stanton alleging.
: among other things, that C mmissioncr Al
! ’orecht was prejudice 1 a. . hi.- t the prosecu
| tion's case, that he was biased, had
| discussed the case with the deiondants and
1 1 ad expressed an opirn n in the matter.
Tic difen.-e resisted the motion for chan.;e
of venue and some rather warm exchanges
! wfre imlul eci in by opposing counsel. The
: ccmmissicner -fated that while ho had dis
; cuss'-1 the matter with both parlies, his
| dO years' experience at the bar had enabled
| turn to receive c\i h-nee c-n both sides of
; a case with on open mind arm to decide the
! case on the 1 cw and the evid.en.ee. lie ex
pro. cd a v.: 1: to grant th.’ motion for a
1 charge of venue, but was doubt fi 1 < f hi*
; right to do sc. He therefore denied the nic
; ii; n. Attnrncj Stanton then a.-ked for a
; t o-ndr,nance, and the court was adjourned
; i n il 10 a. m. Tuesday.

"RAMPS”
moved that a continuance of 10 days be
granted in which to take proceedings before .
the district court at Fairbanks to compel ,
Commissioner Albrecht to grant a change of
venue to the court of Commissioner Karl
Thiil. The motion was denied and Com
missioner Albrecht stated that he had tele
graphed Judge Fuller as to his right to
grant a change of venue, and in case of
not hearing from him by 4 o’clock the case
would proceed to trial at that time. Ad j
journment was therefore taken until 4 j
o’clock.
Mere Adjournment:
At 4 o’clock Commissioner Albrecht read j
a telegram from Judge Fuller citing a case .
for the guidance of the commissioner, and ,
therefore granted the change of venue to |
the court of Commissioner Thiel.
The case of Angus McDonald was then j
taken up. A jury was not called for and j
Mr. Stanton stated that he would not a-k j
r a change of venue. Court was then I
i.i’journe 1 to 10 o’clock Wednesday.
On Wednesday morning at 10 o’clock j
the pr - ecu tie n asked 1 *ave to withdraw the
complaint against McDonald and fie a new j
. ne, and this was granted. The new com- I
laint was presented, the formalities of ar
ris t and nlease on recognizance were gone!
through, and court adjourned till 2 (/click
to hear the j lea of defendant.
The cases against the other defendant:- ;
were likewise taken up and new conn hunt, j
tih-d and court adjourned till 2 o’clock.
At 2 o’clock the defendant. McDonald, j
pleaded not guilty to the charge of trespass j
as made in the complaint, and the case wa> !
set f. r healing at 10 (/cl ck Thursday, after
a t it between counsel in regard to the con
tinned delay in cr tiling to trial.
At 10 o’cl. ck Ti ur-day morning the case ;
a- a ins! Ail", us McDonald was taken up am! j
. Tlvmar P. Ait ken, the complaining wit
iH'.s. was call'd to the stand. He test die ■< i
that he and J. J. Price were the lawful
owners of the (ucaro Bench Association !
claim, and that said claim was in the law- .
nl; d n < f rod occitpie 1 by the \ ok n

that on or about October 7. 1913 he ha |
ordered the defendant- off the [ remises in j

1 tl.*- clef, m aul had ignored the warnings an;
had remained on the claim until served with

f the Diiiled F trues against Charles Krut
singer was set for 2 o'clock.
At the afternoon ie--i; n, on the motion
f the prosecution, the cu es against Krut
dnger and II at to were dismissed and the
c.a-e against William II. Knox was called.
The prosecution moved for a change of
venue in the ca.-e of Kim:*-, ai.d filed affi
i .\hvks (l prejuuicc sinn.ar to tne ones in
; the Adams esse, calling particular attention
; to the fact that a change of venue bad
j been granted in the Adams case and that
, the ci .-e- were identical.
The court a !: a rued until 10 o'clock Pat ;
urday to allow the prnsecuti n to hi; fur

; feme to prepare counter-affidavits.
It is understood that no date has yet
been set for the trial of the Adams case
before Commissioner Thiel.
On Saturday morning arguments were
heard on the affidavits f r and against a
change of venue. It is likely the case of
Knox will be heard before Commissioner Al
brecht.
