¶1*787Edgar C. Jensen, of Salt Lake City, Utah (E. A. Rogers, of Salt Lake City, Utah, on the brief), for appellant.
¶2John S. Boyden, Asst. U. S. Atty., of Salt Lake City, Utah (Dan B. Shields, U. S. Atty., and Scott M. Matheson, Asst. U. S. Atty., both of Salt Lake City, Utah, on the brief), for the United States.
¶3Before PHILLIPS, McDERMOTT, and BRATTON, Circuit Judges.
¶5Slade and four other defendants were jointly charged by an indictment containing fourteen counts. The first ten counts charged violations of 18 U.S.C.A. § 241; the eleventh count charged a violation of 18 U.S.C.A. § 88; and the twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth charged violations of 18 U.S.C.A. § 237. All of the defendants except Slade, pleaded guilty.
¶6Slade was convicted on counts seven to ten inclusive, and counts eleven and fourteen. He was sentenced to serve a term of two years on count eleven and three years on count fourteen at the McNeil Island penitentiary, the sentences to run concurrently, and to pay a fine of one dollar on each of the other counts on which he was convicted.
¶7Slade took an appeal on December 10, 1935. On January 4, 1936, the trial court entered an order extending the time for settling and filing the bill of exceptions, until February 1, 1936. On February 1, 1936, the trial court undertook to enter an order further extending such time until March 1, 1936. The second order was ineffectual. See Rule 9 of Appellate Criminal Rules (28 U.S.C.A. following section 723a); Yep v. U. S. (C.C.A. 10) 81 F.(2d) 637; Fewox v. U. S. (C.C.A.5) 77 F.(2d) 699; U. S. v. Adamowicz (C.C.A.2) 82 F.(2d) 288.
¶8On February 8, 1936, the court entered an order which read in part as follows:
“It now appearing that through inadvertence and mistake counsel asked for an extension to February 1, 1936, instead of to March 1st, 1936, which date was then intended, and the United States Attorney consenting, and good cause appearing therefor, it is now
“Ordered that said order of January 4, 1936, be corrected and amended so as to read March 1st, 1936, instead of February 1st, 1936.”
¶9This order was likewise ineffectual.
¶10While a court has inherent power to amend or correct its records to make them conform to the actual facts,1 it is without power to change a record so as to make it show that which did not occur or to cure errors or omissions of counsel.2 The order of February 8, 1936, did not correct a former order to make it speak the truth. The former order was correct. The order of February 8, 1936, undertook to cure the omission of counsel. This the court had no power to do.
¶11It follows that the bill of exceptions and the assignments of error were not filed in time and should not be considered.
¶12The record proper, however, is before us and we may consider alleged errors predicated thereon.
¶13Counsel for Slade contend that count eleven charged a conspiracy to bribe and *788that where-concert is necessary to an offense, such as bribery, conspiracy to commit the substantive offense will not lie. The legal proposition relied on is sound3 but it has no application here.
¶14Count eleven charged defendants with having conspired together to “corruptly impede and influence the jurors in said case heretofore named, and to corruptly influence, obstruct and impede the due administration of justice therein,” and “that it was the object of said conspiracy, … that said defendants, or either, or any of them, should corruptly influence and impede said jurors and corruptly influence, obstruct and impede the due administration of justice therein by unlawfully bribing, imparting information to said jurors out of the jury box and by persuasion, arguments and appeals other than those addressed to said jurors by counsel in open court.”
¶15The substantive offenses were not bribery but the offenses of influencing a juror and of impeding justice defined in 18 U.S.C.A. § 241; and the persons to be influenced, the jurors, were not parties to the conspiracy.
¶16Counsel for Slade contend that count fourteen is predicated on section 131 of the Criminal Code (18 U.S.C.A. § 237); that it charged bribery of a juror and that bribery of a juror is not embraced within section 131. U. S. v. Sager (C.C.A.2) 49 F.(2d) 725, 727, supports this contention.
¶17The Act of April 30, 1790, 1 Stat. 112, 117, § 21, made it an offense to bribe a judge of the United States and for such a judge to receive a bribe. The punishment prescribed was a fine and imprisonment “at the discretion of the court.” The act did not embrace other officers of the United States courts.
¶18The Act of March 2, 1831, 4 Stat. 487, 488, § 2, provided that, “if any person or persons shall, corruptly, or by threats or force, endeavour to influence, intimidate, or impede any juror, witness, or officer, in any court of the United States, in the discharge of his duty, or shall, corruptly, or by threats or force, obstruct, or impede, or endeavour to obstruct or impede, the due administration of justice therein,” such person should be punished by a fine not ex-Cteding five hundred dollars or by imprisonment not exceeding three months.
¶19The Act of June 10, 1872, 17 Stat. 378, made it an offense “corruptly, or by threats or force, or by … any threatening communications” to “endeavor to influence, intimidate, or impede any grand or petit jury or juror of any court of the United States, in the discharge of his or their duty” or by the same means to “influence, obstruct, or impede, or endeavor to influence, obstruct, or impede, the due administration of justice therein.” The punishment prescribed was a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars or imprisonment not exceeding one year, or both.
¶20Such was the state of the pertinent criminal statutes when the Criminal Code was adopted on March 4, 1909. Section 341 of the Criminal Code (35 Stat. 1153) repealed the statutes referred to above.
¶21Section 131 of the Criminal Code (18 U.S.C.A. § 237) reads:
“Whoever, directly or indirectly, shall give or offer, or' cause to be given or offered any money, property, or value of any. kind, or any promise or agreement therefor, or any other bribe, to any judge, judicial officer, or other person authorized by any law of the United States to hear or determine any question, matter, cause, proceeding, or controversy, with intent to influence his action, vote, opinion, or decision thereon, or because of any such action, vote, opinion, or decision, shall be fined not more than $20,000, or imprisoned not more than fifteen years, or both; and shall forever be disqualified to hold any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United States.”
¶22Section 132 of the Criminal Code (18 U.S.C.A. § 238) reads:
“Whoever, being a judge of the United States, shall in anywise accept or receive any sum of money, or other bribe, present, or reward, or any promise, contract, obligation, gift, or security for the payment of money, or for the delivery or conveyance of anything of value, with the intent to be influenced thereby in any opinion, judgment, or decree in any suit, controversy, matter, or cause depending before him, or because of any 'such opinion, ruling, decision, judgment, or decree, shall be fined not' *789more than $20,000, or imprisoned not more than fifteen years, or both; and shall be forever disqualified to hold any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United States.”
¶23Section 133 of the Criminal Code (18 U.S.C.A. § 239) reads:
“Whoever, being a juror, referee, arbitrator, appraiser, assessor, auditor, master, receiver, United States commissioner, or other person authorized by any law of the United States to hear or determine any question, matter, cause, controversy, or proceeding, shall ask, receive, or agree to receive, any money, property, or value of any kind, or any promise or agreement therefor, upon any agreement or understanding that his vote, opinion, action, judgment, or decision shall be influenced thereby, or because of any such vote, opinion, action, judgment, or decision, shall be fined not more than $2,000, or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.”
¶24Section 135 of the Criminal Code (18 U.S.C.A. § 241) in part reads:
“Whoever corruptly, or by threats or force, or by any threatening letter or communication, shall endeavor to influence, intimidate, or impede any witness, in any court of the United States or before any United States commissioner or officer acting as such commissioner, or any grand or petit juror, or officer in or of any court of the United States, or officer who may be serving at any examination or other proceeding before any United States commissioner or officer acting as such commissioner, in the discharge of his duty, or who corruptly or by threats or force, or by any threatening letter or communication, shall influence, obstruct, or impede, or endeavor to influence, obstruct, or impede, the due administration of justice therein, shall be fined not more than $1,000, or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.”
¶25Sections 131, 132 and 133, supra, are in pari materia. They are correlative in that section 131 makes it an offense to give, and sections 132 and 133 make it an offense to receive a bribe. They should he read and construed together.4
¶26Section 131 makes it an offense to bribe certain persons occupying official relation with a United States court.
¶27Section 132 makes it an offense for one of such persons, namely a judge, to receive a bribe.
¶28Section 133 makes it an offense for the remainder of such persons to receive a bribe.
¶29While section 131 descrihes such persons generally, and sections 132 and 133 describe them with more particularity, both deal with persons “authorized by any law of the United States to hear or determine any question, matter, cause, proceeding, or controversy,” and both deal with corruptly influencing such person’s “action, vote, opinion, or decision.”
¶30Section 133 mentions a juror specifically. Surely Congress did not intend to make it an offense for a juror to receive a bribe, but to let the giver of the bribe go unpunished.
¶31When the three sections are read together, we think it plain that Congress intended to embrace jurors in the phrase in section 131, “or other person authorized by any law of the United States to hear or determine any question.”
¶32Against that construction, it is urged that section 135 covers bribery of a juror and that Congress, in a revision of the criminal statutes, would not include the same offense in sections 131 and 135. It will be noted that section 131 covers bribery, while section 135 covers a mere “endeavor” to corruptly influence a juror. It does not need to be a technical attempt to bribe. Any effort or essay to accomplish the evil purpose is within the statute.5 The latter section also covers threats and force as well as corruption as a means of the en*790deavor.. It also embraces an endeavor to intimidate or impede a juror. It seems clear to us that the two sections embrace separate and distinct offenses.
¶33We conclude the offense charged in count fourteen falls within the provisions of section 131.
¶34Counsel for Slade contend that counts seven, eight, nine, ten and fourteen are predicated on the same transaction, and that the offense charged in each is identical with the offenses charged in the others.
¶35They urge that only one of such counts should have been submitted to the jury and only one punishment should have been imposed thereon.
¶36It will be noted that section 135, supra, defines three distinct classes of offenses:
¶37(1) Corruptly, or by threats or force, or by threatening letter or communication, endeavoring to influence, intimidate, or impede a witness, juror or officer.
¶38(2) By the same means, endeavoring to influence, obstruct, or impede the due administration of justice.
¶39(3) By the same means, influencing, obstructing, or impeding the due administration of justice.
¶40Classes one and two embrace an endeavor to accomplish an evil purpose. Class three embraces the accomplishment of an evil purpose.
¶41Count seven charged that Slade and others corruptly endeavored to impede and influence Burton, a juror, in a cause pending in the District Court of the United States for the District of Utah, by conveying information to the juror that he could make some money if one of the defendants in such pending cause should be acquitted. It charged the offense of endeavoring to influence or impede a juror under section 135, supra.
¶42Count eight charged that Slade and others corruptly influenced, obstructed and impeded the due administration of justice by conveying information to juror Burton, that he could make some money if one of the defendants in the pending cause should be acquitted. It charged the offense of influencing, obstructing and impeding the due administration of justice under section 135, supra. '
¶43Count nine charged that Slade and others corruptly endeavored to impede and influence juror Burton, by promising him $1,-000 to decide the issues in such pending cause in favor of Bowers. It charged the offense of corrupt!y endeavoring to influence and impede a juror under section 135, supra.
¶44Count ten charged that Slade and others corruptly influenced, obstructed and impeded the due administration of justice by promising juror Burton $1,000, to decide the issues in such pending cause in favor of Bowers. It charged the offense of influencing, obstructing and impeding the due administration of justice under section 135, supra.
¶45Count fourteen charged that Slade and others gave juror Burton a promise and agreement to pay him $1,000, “to decide the issues” in such pending cause “in favor of … Bowers.” It charged the offense of bribery under section 131, supra.
¶46While counts seven and eight were predicated on the same transaction, they charged separate and distinct offenses in law, defined in separate provisions of section 135, supra. The first charged an endeavor to accomplish the evil purpose and falls in class one. The second charged the accomplishment of a different evil purpose and falls in class three.
¶47What we have said of counts seven and eight is also true of counts nine and ten.
¶48While count fourteen was predicated on the same transaction as counts nine and ten, it charged the offense of bribery under section 131, supra.
¶49A plea of autrefois acquit is unavailing unless the offense to which it is interposed is precisely the same in law and in fact as the former one relied upon under the plea.6
¶50Two offenses may be distinct in point of law even though they grow out of the same transaction, if one embraces a different element than the other.7
¶51*791A single act may be an offense against two statutes, and if the offense defined in one embraces an dement not in-eluded m the other, an acquittal or conviction under one does not exempt the defendant from prosecution and punishment under t e ot ei.8
¶52Congress may make each separate step in a transaction a distinct offense.9
¶53We conclude that counts seven, eight, nine, ten and fourteen charged separate and distinct offenses and that a conviction on one is not a bar to a conviction on the others.
