He Also Takes q Change OF
Venue and Will Have q
Jury Trial.

"
trial II II ever does.
when the case was called at 10
O'Clock the defendant asked for q
change OF venue, which was granted
By Justice Shaw. and the case came
up before Justice Sheldon. That
dispenser Of justice refused positively
to try the case today, or at any
other fixed date In the future, and
while the position be has taken may
not be q tenable one In the eyes OF
the law. he certainly cannot be-
blamed under the circumstances for
the stand taken In this case. Under
tho provisions Of the city charter
costs cannot be assessed against the
city In any criminal action OF this
kind to exceed the amount Of 30.
Justice Shaw had already exceeded
that sum, hia costs being 4ll50 and
this left nothing for Justice sheldon
for try Ing the case and mourning the
displeasure OF one side or, the other,
unless the defendant was found
guilty in which event the defendant
would. of course, have to pay the
costs. Having granted the request
for Q change OF venue the case can
not 60 back to Justice Shaw. JUS
tice Sheldon does not say he will not
try the case, but says that he IL at
present too busy with the problem
OF earning a livelihood for himself
aud family to spend his time on case
in which there is no fees. He says
that some time in the future, when
he IL not 90 busy, II the case 10 called
up he will try it but will not, do SO
at present, and there yQu are.
There 10 no way to compel him to
try the case except BY an order
from the district court. The dc.
PENDANT will not ask for this order,
and the city attorney, does not. it Il
said, feel called upon to do 90, and
there you are again .s |
{ OF course, . new case can be com.
menced, but 1t 10 doubtful II one will
be on account Of the expense that It
will incur. = !. m5-,< EN-. }g5 49,. b :

tion for q change Of venue was made

CRUSHED BY A TRAIN.
Domencio Gherno, of Rockvale,
Falls Under Wheels of No. 1.

Yesterday noon as Domencio
Gherno was attempting to board
ID. d r. q. train No. |, at Pueblo.
he missed his hold and fell under
the wheels. The Pueblo Star
gives the following account of the
accident:
He was going west on No. |,
and the train had stopped at the
crossing before he was aware of it..
He ran to grab the railing of the
platform of one of the quick NOV
ing cars. missed his hold, and with
a scream of terror, fell under the
wheels. As luck would have it the
end of the platform struck him
squarely in the side and knocked
the upper part of of his body clear
of the moving wheels, but his feet
went squarely on the rail, crush
ing one to pulp, tearing the shoe
off the other, and strange to say
did not crush the member. The ac-
cident was seen by several, among
them the conductor, G.. w.
Butcher, who had charge of the
train, which was promptly stopped
and the authorities notified.
The injured man was carefully
placed in the police patrol wagon
and taken to the Pueblo hospital,
where he was soon visited by Dr.
Rice While but little marked
Gherno is badly hurt internally,
aside from the crushed limb, and
it is hard to say what the result
may be. After consultation Drs.
Rice and Baker decided that the
foot must come off and they will
perform that operation this after
noon.

AMERICANS ARE
MOVING FORWARD.
Insurgents Making Hasfy Prepa-
raGonS for fhe Attack.
lNTRENCHED AT MAL0LOS.

Manila, March 81 The insurg-
ents north of the city are making
hasty preparations for the advance
of the American forces which they
regard ms imminent. The forward
movement of the Americans began
this morning. y general advance
is expected to occur at any time.
The rebels are heavily masked in
trenches on the north, This is
probably due to AguinaIdo's belief
that the blow is to be struck at
Malolos, their capital.
The desperate straits in which
Aguinaldo finds himself in his
eager endeavor TO enlist the sym
pathies of foreign nations, is indi-
Gated by the letters TO the foreign
consuls here. announcing that all
Filipinoports will be open to neu-
trail nations and that no import or
export duties will be charged.
The insurgents are working night
and day to fortify Malolos. From
%, 900 to 10000 men are said to be
between this place and there.
They are suffering dreadfully from
lack of food Most of the natives
are heartily sick of the fighting,
but the leaders keep them at the
front with mur.lerous tbreate.
The insurgent governor of Cavite
province escaped 10 the American
lines this morning and surrendered
He says that many insurgents are
dying, the army being compelled
to subsist on rice.
