ey 6 TUESDAY, JANUARY ROGERS’ TRIAL: WAY BE DELAYED) coe | Counsel For Grafton Miller In- | terposes Demurrer When Arraignment Is Made Grand Forks, N. D., Jan. — —Upon arraignment of Henry B. Eggers, manager of the Grafton Roller Mill, Grafton, N. D., in fed-! tral district court, which opened here this morning, George A. Bangs, counsel for the’ defense, in- terposed a demurrer based on_the theory that the indictment of Egg- ers does not charge a crime against the United States. He contends there is no relation alleged between indictments and “fraudulent drafts and Up hele of funds of the First it ton.” Judge Andrew Miller heard the demurrer in chambers and in the meantime the petit jury was jismissed until this afternoon. The indictment against Eggers charges him, manager of the Grafton Roller Mill company, with aiding Manville H. Sprague, mi ing cashier of the bank, to mi ly funds of the bank by obtaining for the milling cothpany a fictitious credit at the bank through the in- strumentality of provisional drafts, drawn by the mill company upon customers of the mill against orders for flour prior to shipment. Two other arraignments were called at the opening of court this morning. Charles Wallingham is indicted on a charge of breaking into the postoffice at Bowesmont, on August 8, 1926; Ed Weineke is charged with shipping cattle that had not been tested. Wallingham, a Bowesmont youth, is accused by two minors with participating in breaking into the postoffice. He ‘was acquitted in Pembina county district court on a charge of grand larceny in connection with the ille- gal entry into a Bowesmont busi- ness house three weeks prior to the postoffice entry, Selvig of Minnesota Wants Higher Tariff on Products of Farm Washington, Jan. 17.(P—A plea for a higher tariff protection for American agricultural products ‘was made by Representative Ses Republican, Minnesota, in an dress prepared for delivery today in the house. The Minnesotan has in- troduced a bill increasing the tariff rate on more than a score of dairy, live stock and farm products. The present rates on many of the competitive agricultural pro- ducts are too low, he said, and if the farmers received adequate pro- tection they could product many of the imported farm products. ~ “The farmers want a square deal,” he added, and asked that the ways and means committee set a time for hearings on agricultural schedules. “It would be nothing short of a calamity,” he said, “for this con- gress to adjourn without passing this legislation, which is regarded as absolutely essential in the effort to rehabilitate our agriculture. We are in the eighth year of a most serious agricultural depression and there are no signs of any substan- tial improvement.” Spirit of St. Louis Awaits Its Master Panama _ City, Jan. 17.—(?)—The Spirit of St. Louis Was ready toda: to carry Colonel Charles A.
