In TIT JANITOR'S ROOM.
Great Caution Observed at the Pre-.
lfmfnary Hearing of Wells
SLAYER.

Charles Phillips. the murderer Of Police
man James Wells, had his preliminary
hearing yesterday before Justice Austin
But the hearing did not take place IN the
Justices ordinary court room. With the
same precaution that has been observed
with regard to Phillips ever since he was
lodged at police headquarters after the
terrible shooting ARRAY of last Sunday
night, the hearing was conducted in the
Janitor's room In the basement OF the
county court house
Ii occupied a very few minutes, and con-
sisted mainly In a statement from Phil
lips that he would waive his preliminary
hearing altogether. He was not repre-
sented by counsel Several lawyers have
been UP to the Jail to see him. presumably
with view to taking his case. but as he
seems TO have no money the negotiations
appear to have fallen through. After he
had waived his hearing he asked Deputy
Prosecuting Attorney Hart whether he
would not be allowed an attorney, and
that gentleman assured him that when his
case came on for trial the court would
see that he was properly represented by
counsel.
Phillips looked pale and nervous when
he was brought Into the room, glancing
about him with an air of foreboding and
distrust. which seemed TO Indicate that he
thought he was without friend In the
little gathering
