TRIAL BEGUN
Sensational Court Room 7es.
timony in the BoodIing
Cases-LittIe Pro 5ress
Made Thus Far.

Justice Sweeney was compelled to re-
move his court this morning to the room
Of the district court to accommodate the
spectators, who were desirous OF listen
ing TO the testimony in the bribery cases.
Attorney James 8. Carnahan appears
for the defendants and Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Guy V. Sternberg for the
state.
William Campbell and Alderman
Wharton we're the witnesses heard this
morning. Wharton's testimony was to
the effect that he had been approached
by Alderman Mckinney and w. F. Mo-
Cue and that he had been promised the
superintendency of the water plant, il
he would vote to purchase same from
the Water company for the sum Of
$40, 900. The testimony of Campbell
was the same in effect as has been stated
he overheard, at the time he listened at
the window OF Wharton's residence.
There is great deal of interest mani
tested in tho trial and the court room
is crowded, by the friends and adherents
OF both sides. Court adjourned at IL to
meet at 2 this afternoon.
On the re-convening Of court this af
ternoon, a motion was made upon the
part OF Mr.. Carnahan to quash the COM
plant, as far as it related to the charge
against W. =. McCue. OF the Colorado
Fuel & Iron company The motion was
argued upon both sides and after the
court was fully apprised in the matter
ne refused to grant the motion to quash.
Attorney Carnahan then submitted
another motion to quash the information
against Alderman Mckinney and McCue
on the following grounds: First, that no
offense has been proven; second-that
no offsnse is charged in the complaint
and third--that the court has no juris-
diction to bind over the defendants to
the district court or to appear as tri-
bunal to try the charges made in the
complaint.
At the time Of going to press this last
motion was being argued before the
court and will probably take some time,
30 that that the trial may continue over
until tomorrow.
