The preliminary examination of Ed. Fletcher, (colored), the supposed train robber, was held before Judge Redman last Monday Conductor Shale testified that Fletcherpulled gun on him when he ordered him off the platform of the baggage car and that when he shot at the iarkey the colored gentem man re- turned the pliment. William Jen- nings, the saloon keeper at Yucca, tes tiied that the darkey had drank consid- erable whiskey in his saloon and that about dark he had occasion to go out and when he came in Fletcher was coming from behind the bar with his (Jenning's) gun in his hand. A scuffle ensued and the gun went off That was the last he saw of the man, as he ID ade off in the darkness. and he went to the depot and reported the affair. Deputy Sheriff s nth tod substantially the same story as that of Conductor Shale The darkey stated that he did not shoot at the con ductor and the fact that there was only one exploded cartridge in the gun would seem 10 bear him out. The darkey also says the conductor shot him while he stood on the platform and Sh le says that he was on the ground and on the opposite side of the train when he fired the shot, The fact that the shot hit the darkey near the pit of the stomach and ranged up through the right breast goes far to corroborate the story of the shoot ing on the platform. W. J. Connor, station agent at Yucca, stated that Jen
 nings came into his office, on the even
 Ing of the shooting and stated that he had neen held up and that an attempt 10 h old up the passenger train would De made and that Tn consequence he had notified the sherffs office Jennings. when on the stand, claimed he knew nothing about 9 holdup and did not think he had told agent Connors any thing to that effect. As we said last week, it was simply case of a drunken negro stealing rlde The conductor was certainly justified Tn taking a snap shot at hlm. Judge Redman held the man in 2,000$ bonds to appear before the grand jury and he languishes in the county bastle His wound is healing rapidly and he will soon he all right again.
