MUST STAY IN JAIL.
Judge CatIin Denies Smith a Reduc-
ton of Bail.
Foreshadowing That Furlong,
Robert Aliens Barkeeper, VIII
Be Set at Liberty.

Attorney Grove L. Johnson, who rep
resents J. D. Smith-one of the alleged
Allen robbers appeared before Superior
Judge Catlin yesterday forenoon and
argued for a reduction of bail for his
client from $4,000 to S4, GOO. He set forth
many reasons why he considered the
present amount eXorbitant.
Assistant District Attorney Buckley
argued against the motion. Mr.. Allen,
he said, was in very precarious condi-
ton, and not likely to live. He did not
consider the bail exorbitant and asked
the court not to reduce it.
SMITHS REQUEST DENIED.
Judge Catlin said that there was proof
at the trial that a crime had been COM
mitted, and that the probability is that it
viii result in murder. Allen was as
saulted with deadly weapon and struck
in vital part. The Judge said that be
had considered the matter carefully, and
would decline to grant the motion for
reduction OF bail.
FURLoNG's CASE.
When the Smith matter was disposed of
Attorney w. \. Anderson, who repre-
sents William Furlong, who was also
charged with completely in the crime,
stated to the court that he had proposed
to make motion for the discharge of
William Furlong, but he preferred to
await the return of District Attorney
Ryan, who is at the Bay.
Judge Catlin ordered the Furlong mat
ter continued until to-day.
He took occasion to say that il was to be
presumed, though not absolutely neces-
sity, that all the evidence against Fur
long was included in the testimony taken
in the Smith case. If this We're admitted
and motion had been made to DISCHARGE
Furlong, he felt that it would have been
his duty to grant it.
