JOE COBURN AGiIN IN COURT.
Five Lawyers Ensaged In his Defence-The
Trial Once more Postponed.

Tho extent OF public interest in Joe Co
burns case. especially among his class. was
again Indicated by the gathering OF a multitude
long before the time for taking him from the
Tombs TO the brown stone Court House. The
sidewalks in Centre street were thronged and
in Chambers street the mass was great enough
to effectualy block the thoroughfare. No adj
mission to the Court House was given except to
those who had business within.
That the trial would be postponed was gene
rally understood, hut the formal decision was
preceded In the General Sessions by large
amount Of speechmaking Coburn had engaged
1--WE lawyers and all were In attendance. Dis
trict Attorney Phelps was there In pcrson-an
unusual thing. At Judge Sutherland's side sat
ex-Gov. Hoffman. Lawyers Edgar VI. Chipman,
Charles W. Brooke. George NJ. Curtis. John p.
oNcil. and Charles x Spencer shared the work
of asking for postp,nemcnt. They read am
davits saying that their clients witnesses had
not all been found. ard urged on that ground
that more time was needed to prepare for the
defence. They also said that Coburn was i'll
from his injuries. thai physicians sent to ex-
anime him had becn refused admission To th,,
Tomhs that the public excitement was preiu-
dcial to him. and thai thcrr was no good rea-
son for hurrying the trial.
Assistant District Attorney Rollins replied

TO the charge against the District Attorney ;
Office that unwnrrnntahle zeal w1s shown in the
prosecution of this ease. hr said that the trial of
offenders within few daSs after indictment
WAS not uncommon, hut wits the usual practice.
Already this month iilty-siN prisoners had
been tried in the General Sessions one day
after indictment. Yet he had no serious obcc-
tion to a poStponcmrnt
Judge Suthcrland postponed the case until
next Monday. not alone for the reasons given
10y COburns lawyers. he said. but partly because
there would be delay in securing a jury. and
NHshingtons birthday. q legal holiday. would
prevent much progress this week.
