SCHMIDT ON TRIAL.
His Lawyer Tries TO Secure q
Change of Venue.

The trial Of Charles Schmidt In Judge
IroutPs court yesterday seemed to have a
wonderful interest for the idle court
lounger, for the courtroom was packed all
| day long, and their patience was even more
enduring than the Courts. The oifense
charged against Schmidt is burglary, and
there isn't thing sensational associated
with the act, either; he simply stole few
carpenters tools from the warehouse Of
James O'BTien, and was captured in San
Jose.
But Schmidts notoriety comes from an
other cause. He was one OF the chief wit
nesses against Sidney Bell, the murderer OF
samuel jacobson. and has distinguished
himself recently by experiencing religion
unuer the gracious miDistratIOns OF DE-.
1homas G. Easton aad prOciaiming to the
world that his damaging testimony against
Bell was all perjury.
SCURRILoUS LETTERS.
ms not0riety was greatly enhanced on
Saturday last when District Attorney Barnes
| read III court two very lengthy and extreme
~ Scurrll0us letters signed by Schmidt
ana purDOrtng to have been written by
MN, In which he accused the District AT
Lorney and other officials of consplrlng to
| Bell.
w hoH inc case was cal!eu ACLOrueY My.
representing Schmidt, asked for a change OF
venue on the ground that the Court and the
District Attorney were preludiced. he
believed, furthermore, that after the
articles published by the press on Sun
DAY morning concerning Schmdt's letters,
| II would be impossible TO get an unpreJu-
diced jury in this county.
The Judge required the attorney to make
| his statements under oath, whereupon Kip
repeated that the Court was prejudiced be-
cause he had characterized the defendants
| letters as scandalOuS and unworthy oil
notice" The District Attorney, he de-
| elared, was equally prejudieed, as his con-
| Duct had clearly shown.
Schmidt swOre that he did not believe he
| could get fair trial.
NOT PREJUDICED.
Judge Trout and Assistant ID strict At
| torney Hinkle both denied under oath that
they were preiudiced, and believed they
could give the prisoner Il fair trial.
MI hlp's motion was denied, and the
following jury was impaneled: G. Newman,

Ladson, Charles Zissig. John Bonner, john
| Wlghtman, H. z. Meisei, Z. LaRZendorf, A.
Devote. L. Dellwig aud Theodore Truelson.
Attorney Kip objected formally to any
and all testimony, and 81 eciically to the
detectives testimony, on the ground that
SchmldtS confession was made in the hope
! of reward.
