Protests His Innocence.
Ivan de Malchin, the swordsman
from Russia, who is we'll known in
this city. where he spent the summer
and who is in jail in Salt Lake, tells
Herald reporter how it happened that
he got into Jail there. He explains in
vigorous language that he is entirely
innocent of the charge of insulting
ladies' and that he is prosecuted shame
fully. According to his story the de-
teetiVe who made the arrest did so
because he was ignorant of the real
state OF affairs. This is the way the
prisoner explains it:
II had been out for a walk during
the evening and when upon my re-
turn home, saw a man whom I never
had met walking behind two ladies'
Presently he asked me If I knew them
and replied that did not. He walk
ed on and I followed behind amused
at his actions, because he was intox-
icated. l said nothing to him after
that and did not speak to the ladies
at all, but just as / reached the stairs

SUES THE CHIEF.
Pawnhroker Blumkin Seeks to Recover
Some Jewelry.

Some Jewelry. M"
Blumkin, the pawnbroker yesterday
brought suit against Chief of Police La
veil to recover possession of some jew
elry or the value thereof. In the COM
plant, Blumkin alleges that on the 18th
of this month he owned a watch, chain,
nugget, ring and revolver, all valued
at $50, and that the chief of police
wrongfully took the goods from him,
Notwithstanding the fact that strenu-
Gus demand was made for their return
on the spot.
Some time ago a man named Grove
appeared at the police station and re-
ported that he had been robbed of the
above mentioned goods. Last Monday
afternoon Grove called upon Chief La
velle and informed him that he had
found the jewelry in Blumkin's shop.
The chief accompanied Mr.. Grove to
the paWnbroker's shop, where the stuff
was identified as Groves property. Mr..
Grove asked the clerk, Mr.. Brodie, to
allow him to examine the goods, which
request was complied with.
well, these goods are mine, and I
guess I'll take them along with me"
said Grove.

clerk.

HIS REPUTATION IS BAD
That's the Gist of What With sses
Say About Colonel Callahan.
QUESTION OF VERACITY
Many Dillon People Assert That They
Would Not Believe the Attorney
Under Oath-Case Will Be
Resumed To-Day.

The reputation of Colonel Emmett Cal
lahan was on trial in Judge Lindsays
court yesterday afternoon, during a
partial hearing of the evidence in the
divorce case in which he is defendant
Mr.. Callahan was not present nor was
he represented by counsel and the tes-
timony introduced against him stands
uncontradicted. The divorce case had
ben set for trial yesterday. but owing
to that fact that several other cases,
which preceded 1t on the trial calendar,
took up the time of the court After
ney Connolly asked for and was grant
ed permission to introduce the testi-
mony of three witnesses from Dillon
who desired to return home on the aft
ernoon train. The first witness was
Mrs. N. e. Hammer, who testified that
she had known Mr.. and Mrs. Callahan
during their residence in Dillon and
that the reputation Of Colonel Callahan
for truth, honesty, integrity and verac-
ity was bad. She said she had heard
people say they would not believe Mr..
Callahan under oath. Among those
whom she heard thus express them
selves We're State Senator Norris and
Representative Paul.
Ohio Klemn, cashier of the First Ma
tional bank of Dillon, testified that he
had lived in Dillon for 10 years and had
known Colonel Callahan for a long time
and was acquainted with his reputation.
What is his reputation for truth and
veracity?" asked Mr.. Connolly
For truth and veracity it amounts
to nothing was the reply.
Mr. Xlemm said he knew that from
his own experience and from what he
had heard others say. He also said he
never heard the reputation of Mrs. Cal
lahan questioned and that she had al
ways conducted herself very exemplary
and ladylike in every respect.
Attorney FL. J. Burleigh testified tina
he had known Mr. Callahan for years
and that his reputation was bad.
TT was a theme of universal discus
sion among business and professional
men of Dillon" said Mr. Burleigh. Il
have heard a great many people say
that they would not believe him under
OATH"
Would you believe him under oath?"
IT would not"
Mrs. Burleigh said the reputation of
Mrs. Callahan, on the other hand, was
good, and that she was a good, honest
woman and lady.
The evidence attacking Mr.. Callahan's
reputation has been made necessary by
several affidavits he has made in the
case in which he seriously reflects on
the character of Mrs. Callahan. 1t also
goes to the question of fitness for the
custody of the child and regarding the
property involved. The trial will be re-
sumed this morning.

NEW TELEPHONE BUILDING.
Work of Construction on n Handsome
Structure Has Begun.

A~S-S -~~S
Work was begun yesterday on the
telephone building and two stories will
be added to it. The front of the pres
emit structure is of cut stone, and the
additional stories will be of the same
material. The stone is being cut at
the quarry and had not a couple Of
carloads been rejected work would have
been commenced several weeks ago, as
it was originally intended to have the
added stories ready for occupancy by
the first Of the year. As it is, they will
not be completed before June. The new
large and modern switchboard will be
ready to put in place by April, and
when completed the telephone home in
this city will be the finest of all the
company's buildings in the state.
A large and substantial platform has
been built over the walk in front of the
exchange, so that there will be no dan
ger of falling pieces Of timber or pieces
of rock irjuring persons passing or en-
tering the building. The entire struc-
ture is to be of stone, brick and iron.
