but by prosecuting them would break

Mr.. Childers argued that circum-
stantial evidence had demonstrated q
conspiracy or com bination between the
defendants and urged that the evidence
was admissible at the present juno
ture.
Judge Fall alleged that the corpus
delecti must fret be absolutely proved
and then a conspiracy shown before
the evidence was admissible.
The defense fought hard to keep
witnesses evidence from the juryand the
prosecution was equally as anxious to
introduce it.

but not admissible against the other
defendants.
"If it is competent to admit evidence
that would convict McNew and the de-

led by the prosecution this morning af
ter court opened at o'clock. He is
considered an expert on trails and

Witness knew Lee and McNew but
was not we'll acquainted with Gilliland.
He remembered the disappearance of
Tularosa road, specially that portion
of it adjacent to the chalk hill.

about six feet.

where it went" he continued, "as
could not trail it any further nor back
to the fire. My conclusion was that
one OF the men had taken the child's
shoe in his hand or on stick and made
| the impressions with it. There were
only four tracks and all were made by
the shoe belonging to the child's right
| foot
Some one told me that he had found
the track of Fountain 8 shoe, but 1 told
him he was mistaken and in order to
convince him went and put my foot be-
side it and he was satisfied"
Witness infinitely described the
tracks of the men around the fire. The
next day, he said, he saw one of the
sets of tracks on top of house at Lees
ranch. They were made by Oliver
Lee. Saw another set of the tracks in
Las Cruces a short time later. They
were made by McNew.
Witness measured the tracks careful
ly from the heel to the toe, and across
the heel, the toe and the ball of the
foot.
Witness described following the
trail of horsemen toward Lees ranch

countered, which passed along the di-

used in measuring the tracks and the
sticks were afterwards given to Major
Llewellyn.
How long have you been a scout and
trailer?
| Eighteen years.

possible to measure track in sandy
soil after it had been made?
| Well, some OF them were almost per.
feet and others were deeper. Sand
had fallen in on these and partly oblit-
Grated them.
The cross examination of the witness
was tedious and long drawn out and
mainly directed to show that witness
was intent on proving that the trail
led to Lees ranch, and that the prose-
cution's intention was to impIicate Lee
and no one else. On few points wit
ness was harassed numerically and
at times somewhat confused but he
stuck to his main narrative.
