Mayor Ames Freed on Technicality

By Editor

The notorious Mayor Ames, of Minneapolis, has been given his liberty, after an appeal of his case to the State Supreme Court. He was accused of many violations of the law, of accepting bribes from dissolute women and the lawless generally. At the close of his conviction he was sentenced to six years' imprisonment. The Supreme Court now frees him on a technicality, in spite of his guilt.
