miner from Bingham, is said to have
threatened to kill one of the women of

Bingham and live with him, according
to promise he claims she made. Stew

pay her bill so she could leave, but
when he came around before train time
she told him Salt Lake was better than
Bingham, anyway. The miner was
elected from the premises and no ar
rests were made, though some excite
ment prevailed.

The SalIair Baking Powder plant, to-
gether with the copyright on the name,
and all the stock on hand, has just been
sold by the O'Meard Bros. TO the Salt
Lake Coffee & Spice mills, of which
firm Robert Brewer and James Cecil

has been run from the start, directly or
Indirectly, by the O'Meara Bros. who
have pushed the powder till it has a
good position in the markets. The new

more time to devote to other business,
the change is q good one all around.

Judge Cherry yesterday made a set
ting of criminal cases to be tried by
Judge Norreil. commencing on Nov %,

ure from Dec. 9Th to the 18th. The
next big trial is that of Benbrook, the

being set for Dec. is. 1t will not be
concluded till after Christmas.
Contrary to expectation, the trial of
Frederick J. Mills, for killing John c.
O'Melveney, was not fixed yesterday.
The reason assigned for deferring the
case is that all the other important
cases have precedence and that it
would be prudent upon the part of both
prosecution and defense to wait until
il can be definitely ascertained when
the Mills trial can be had. In all prob
ability the Mills case will be specially
set for trial soon after the first of the
new year.

PLEADS FOR GEORGE WADE
ATTORNEY ATKINSON ASKS FOR
TWENTY YEARS.
Attorney General Submits Matter to the
Court-Judge Stanley VIII Examine
District Court Evidence.

Judge Stanley this morning postpon-
ed sentence in the George Wade murder
case to a. m. tomorrow, in order to
give him time to examine the evidence
taken at the hearing in the district
court. This conclusion was reached af-
ter the submission of argument by At
torney General Cooper, for the Govern
ment, and A. l., G. Atkinson, attorney
for defendant.
When the case was called the prls-
oner stood before the bar and Mr.. Coo
per addressed the court. He said that
he examined the evidence as educed in
the district court and had decided to
accept the plea of murder in the second
degree. The prisoner in shooting Gill
espie. had Killed an old friend, and there
was nothing to show that he started out
to murder the man. The shooting was
done in drunken rage against another
man.
OF course the crime was serious one,
but defendant had proved manly
enough to confess his guilt. The Gov
ernment was prepared to leave the
matter of sentence entirely in the hands
of the court. Where it not for the fact
that Wade fired a second shot at Gill
espie, after the man was down, the
prosecution would be willing to accept
a sentence for manslaughter in the first
degree, with miximum penalty of
twenty years Imprisonment
| Mr.. Atkinson thanked the attorney
| general for his fair treatment of the
case He asked, however, that the mini
mum sentence of twenty years impris-
onment be given. 1t was never shown
contended the attorney, that any malice
was shown. Wade was crazy drunk al
the time of the shooting. While drunk
enness could not be taken as an excuse
| for crime, yet at the same time it aC-
counted for the act in this case,
| There was no malice felt by Wade
against Gillespie. In fact they We're the
best of friends. There was no feeling
between Wade and Boyd, When Wade
reached the vessel he was staggering
drunk He went to the galley, where
the thermometer was about 105, and il
a minute was out of his head. The
shooting was done while the prisoner
was In this condition. Everything wen
to show that the shooting was done al
the result of drink, and not from malice
which should carry weight.
The attorney insisted that there
should not be a life sentence. TIL,
crime was on a different level to on,
where there Is premeditation or malice
or the shooting Is deliberate and with
IclearAhead Twenty years Imprisonment
would be a good and sufficient punish
ment, and society should and would b
satisfied with it.
Judge Stanley asked several question
respecting the mans habits, partlcu
larly as to whether or not he was
habitual drinker and If he usually o
ever became desperate as on the occa
sion mentioned. At the conclusion o
the remarks, he stated that he was no
satisfied with the information alread
in hand and would prefer postponmen
of sentence until he could review tn
evidence taken by the district magis

MAN SERIOUSLY WOUNDED
IN HOSPITAL AND MAY DIE OF
INJURIES.
Back of Head Opened in an Iwilei Dive
Last Evening-Probably Done in a
Fall Down Stairs.

A man named Goody was taken to
the station house last evening in u
very bad condition from an ugly wound
in the back of the head just above the
neck. He is in the hospital today with
about even chances of pulling through.
Goody is stranger here. Last night
he with a number of companions, all
new men, were at a notorious place in
Iwlei. About II o'clock there was some
trouble and he was hurt.
The injured mans chum said that
Goody was knocked down the stairs
and probably struck his head on a
rock. Others stated that he fell down
the steps, that he was in liquor at the
time The wound looks as if it may
have been made with a knife, though
it.
Deputy Marshal Chillingworth spent
most of the night investigating the
matter. He found a motley crowd in
the Iwilei house. There was more or
less drinking and every indication of
wild time. All stories seem to corro-
borate the one of either being thrown
or falling down stairs, but no one wit
messed any cutting.
No one has been arrested in connec-
ton with the matter as yet. If the
man dies there will be a coroner's in
| quiry at which 1t is hoped something
further will be brought to light. Last
| night Goody was unable to talk and
has made no statement today. He was
taken to the hospital about midnight
