Certified Transcript of His Testi'
mony at the Preliminary.

Senator Brown said he would next offer
the certified transcript OF the testimony
given at the preliminary by the witness
Charles Biglcw, better k0nwn as DAILY,
a walter at the Merchants at the time
Of the shooting, who was now out OF
the state. Judge Powers objected 70
the deposition as well as testimony Of
fered showing that the witness WAS out
Of tho State. This. he contended, was
a violation Of the defendants c0nstitu-
ti0nal right 20 be confronted by the
witnesses against him. even though the
statute made Il sufficient that he be
confronted at the preliminary hearing.
The question was argued at consld-
cradle length By Judge Powers and
Senator Brown
In ruling on the matter, Judge Hlles
said that since the commencement OF
the trial he had anticipated that this
question might come up and had paid
some attention 10 Il. There was some
presumption that the statute was con-
stituti0nal, AT the same time the
courts must adhere to constitutional
limitations. Considering that the Utah
Legislature had borrowed the statute
from California and doubtless taken In
TO account the decision upon the mat
ter, he did not feel justified In over
ruling the Legislature and would deny
the motion An exception was taken
and Mr.. Putnam read the transcript OF
Blglow's testimony at the preliminary
hearing.
The witness testified tha, he was
employed at the Merchants cafe as a
walter at the time Of the shooting,

A little later heard two pistol shots
and then two more.
Asked what he did on hearing the
shots. witness said he ran up stairs be-
hind Detective Sheets, looked into the
room and retired.
on REORGANIZATION the witness tes-
titled that there were certainly four
shots fired. Albert Morris, two young
ladies and one other man, occupied a
dining room when the witness went to
work.
