L5tJ hearing conducted by tho inayoi

Ardmnre police department.
It will be remembered thnt Imme-
diately after tho trial before tho
board of. city commissioners tho at-
torneys for tho defense secured h
temporary Injunction from the dis-
trict court restraining the city offi-
cials from interfering with -the duties
of the chief. A hearing on the mat-
ter was held before Judge Champion
In the district court Tuesday.
'The. trial before tho mayor and
commissioners was a mockery of
Justice" stated Attorney Hush Ied-
better. "Before the chief was ever
brought into open court for trial
It Wl been decided by tho mayor
that he would be ousted. The mayor
signed the charges acted' as prose-
cutor and then as presiding Judge
at the triiil. There Is no law In these
United Slates anywhere which per-
mits a man to be adjudged guilty
before he la given a fair trial. If
there Were such a law which permit-
ted action such as was taken by the
mayor at tho trial I would leave the
state. Even In Russia they don't
put up sfch a pretense of a trial as
was put up In this city when they
tried the chief. If there were such
laws anywhere in tho United States
1 would leave this country."
City Attorney Mason at the open-
ing of the bearing argued that the
district court had no Jurisdiction in
a ease such as this and had no right
to Interfere with the decision of the
board of city commissioners. How-
ever the court differed with him
and the hearing proceeded.
The city attorney read the charges
which had originally been filed against
the chief at his trial before the board
of city commissioners and also read
the testimony offered at the trial
by Henry J. Dixon and Chief Chan-
cellor. The attorneys for the defense re-
quested of the court ' that the Judg-
ment reached at the trial before. the
board of commissioners which ousted
the chief be vacated.
Judge Champion announced that he
would reAil the stenographic report
of the testimony delivered at the trial
of the chief and after doing so would
render his decision on the case.
