THAT GOLD BRICK AGAIN.
Eli Williams, a sea iicr-Sn BANKER, was
Nearly CAUGHT.

Late yesterday afternoon three men
entered the iewelry store or L. Vail.
directly opposite the Eagle Office. One
Of them looked like a. country business
man, another looked like broker in
hard luck while the third had that
careless incident dress and appearance
peculiar 10 a mine owner in fair cir
cumstances. Cnroilins piece OF pa
per little pole of bright gold was
placed before ,Mr. Vail with a request
that he melt it. Dir. Vail looked at the
gold. then at the supposed broker and
then at the country business man.
That gold.' said he. is filings from
a gold brick"
That is true" said the broker.
my friend" said Mr.. Vail to the
country business man, these fellows
are trying TO swindle you. They are
putting up a gold brick scheme on
you
"Oh, no." he protested.
well, 1 tell you they are" said Mr..
Vail.
Just then the two began to get the
country business man out OF the store,
but still Mr.. Vail kept telling him that
they were trying 10 swindle him. FL
nally they departed.
The country business man was Eli p.
sas.
When all had departed Mr.. Vail tele-
phoned for a policeman and Harry SUIT
ton was put on the trail OF the gold
brick sharps. who had fled very soon
after leaving the store and went out
in the country. When Mr.. Williams
was seen he denied very naturally that
he was negotiat ting for the brick, but
that he was inquiring into the value
OF mines in Colorado, and Of which the
gold was sample. That story would
pan out all right We're ii not for the
fact that the metal was manufactured
gold, fourteen carats fine. while SAM
samples OF gold from mipes is twenty

In this case the men were quite sharp
and while they did not perhaps intro
duce the subject of the sale of the brick
that was what they We're leading up to.

he had hoped TO return here this fall

he suggested that a place the size Of

il as impossible TO get along without

would be for her to get along without
a sewer system or water system and
remain as E.g as she is. He said the
way to get I'd of the joint and the

querque Italian colony, and having been
convicted was sentenced to term in the
penitentiary. The chief ground of his
appeal was the refusal of the court to
grant him a change of venue, he having
produced affidavits signed by himself and
two other parties in accordance, as was
claimed, with the provisions of the change
of venue law passed in 1889. Judge
Collier made an order requiring the de-
PENDANT to produce his witnesses IL
court, which the defendant failed to do,
whereupon his application was denied.
The contei.tion of the attorneys for
Leary was that the statute is peremptory
and therefore the court had no discretion
in the matter or any right to demand the
presence of witnesses. The territory on
the other hand insisted that, as the act
says "oath" and not affidavit, this means
the presence In court Of the witnesses
and further that as the law requires these
witnesses to be disinterested the court
had right to inquire into the interest or
lack of interest by questioning the wit
nesses in open count. The decision In
this case will be awaited with much in
terest as it will settle a question OF
criminal practice upon which there is
wide difference of opinion among lawyers.
The case was argued for Leary by Messrs.
I. A. Finical and H. B. FERGUSON, while
Messrs. w. b. Childers and William II.
Pope appeared for the territory.
