The confes- slon of Morris was obtained by Mr. Sim- mons. Justice “of the Peace J. R. Myers of Lookout declares that he has given no statement regarding the lynching, except that made on the witness stand, when he declared that he knew nothing regard- ing the hanging of Hall and the others. Rev. Mr. Simmons was closeted with him until a.late hour last night and it was expected that as the result of the impor- tunities of the clergyman the aged sus- pect would tell what he knew. Myers is near death, and it is believed that he will soon relent and turn against those with whom he is believed to have been asso- ciated in the Lookout tragedy. Deputy Sheriff Fleming arrived here this evening from Lookout with Orrin Trowbridge and J. J. Potter and placed them in jail. These are two of the men implicated by the cornfession of Hutton. All of the thirteen suspects are now in jall here. It is expected that other in- dictments will be returned to-morrow. Accusations Against Simmons. The warrant for Simmons’' arrest was sworn out late this afiernoon after sev- eral depositions had been taken before Justice of the Peace Spargur. Those ex- amined before Judge Spargur were T. C. Gibbons, an evangelist residing in Red Bluff, and. his son, J. Oliver Gibbons, a resident of Lookout. J. Oliver Gibbons is a son-in-law of Judge Myers, and it is upon the latter that Simmons is alleged to have tried to use hypnotic influence to obtain a confession. Gibbons Sr. said that yesterddy after- noon he was accosted by Simmons near the Star Hotel and was requested to tell his son, J. Oliver Gibbons, that Assistant Attorney General Post would like to ar- range for an interview with Judge Myers. Simumons also asked him to have his son take a doctor to the jail and to have the doctor certify that it was not a fit place in which to conflne Myers. Simmons wanted the aged Judge brought to the ho- tel, where he could be taken care of for the night. Later in ‘the day Simmons went to Gibbons' house and told Gibbons | that Myers would not make any state- ment and would not acknowledge that he had tied the .knots in the ropes tested in | | Morris’ store in Lookout. He again asked Gibbons to have his son bring Myers to 4he hotel and urge him to make a confes- sion. Simmons claimed Myers had ad- mitted the facts in his presence, but that he refused to confess to the attornmeys for the State. J. Oliver Gibbons in his deposition sald | that he had arranged the interview as | requested. Judge Myers éxpressed a | willingness to see Post and Simmons. | | Later the deponent saw Myers and Mar- | { shal Taylor going up the street together | in the direction of Stewart’s Hall. After- | 'Wurd Myers told him that he had gone | to see Simmons and that Simmons toid | him the prosecution had evidence that he | tled those knots, and that if he would | make a confession he would be freed. Myers geclared that he told all he knew before the Grand Jury and the Superior Court, and that it he added anything else it would be perjury. Deponent Tries to “Hedge.” After Gibbons Sr. had finished his depo- sition a boy named Halcomb called him from the courtroom and escorted him to the hotel. Gibbons returned in a few minutes and asked that his deposition be returned to him, sayving that he believed the defense was trying to take advantage | of him. His request was denied. The Alturas Plain Dealer to-day issued an extra detailing the events of the last two days and charging that two witnesses | who have made confessions were hypno- | tized by Simmons. One of the alleged discrepancies in the confession of Ji Hutton is the state- ment that R. L. Nichols, a cousin of the Cannons of Lookout, joined the town par- ty of Iynchers in the rear of Trowbridge's store and went with it to the schoolhouse, reaching the schoolbouse at 11 o'clocik and remaining there until the country party arrived, when the mob repaired to the hotel and lynched the five prisoners. Nijchols was one of the men who guard- ed the prisoners early in the night, and claims he did not go.off duty until after 12 o’clock. 5 The Cannons are leading citizens, and practically the only ones in the Lookout country who have openly and persistently favored the prosecution of the suspects. They declare that Nichols had nothing to do with the lynching. —— TEMPERANCE CONFERENCE OPENS ON WEDNESDAY Quincy Lee Morrow and Other Prom- inent Prohibition Advocates Will Deliver Addresses.
