A sensation was produced in the
district court At Colorado Springs
last Thursday, when the case Of
William Smith, charged with MUIR
der. was called. The defendants S
counsel announced themselves
ready for trial, when the district
attorney arose and stated that ne
was obliged to ask for a continu-
ance of the case for the reason that
he had learned, since the court ad-
journed at noon, that the prosecut-
ing witness, Cooper, would not
testify before the court the same as
he did at the coroner's inquest and
preliminary hearing. The prose-
cutor stated that ne was satisfied
that the witness had been tamper-
ed with. At the inquest and pre-
liminary hearing Cooper swore that
he did not see any gun lying on
the ground at the scene Of the
shooting when he returned there
on the morning of the murder.
Now he is prepared to swear that
he saw gun lying near Nichols
and that the gun belonged to the
murdered man.
The judge of the district court
was evidently Of the opinion that
something had gone wrong and he
stated that the district attorney
would be allowed all the time he
desired. and that the trial would be
indefinitely postponed. At the re-
quest Of the district attorney, wit
ness Cooper was brought into
court and placed under bond OF
$500 to insure his appearance at
the trial.
