No. of the district court on Saturday
afternoon, and will be renewed next Sat
urday. In the meantime the Comanche
mine will remain closed down SO far as
the extraction OF ore is concerned, and
between 200 and 800 men will spend the
week in idleness. At the close of Satur-
days session, Judge Clancy modified the
restraining order to the extent of per-
uniting the defendant company to keep
the workings of the property in repair
and a few men will find employment at
this task.
One particularly noticeable feature of
the hearing was the presence of F. Aug
ustus Heinze and Arthur p. Heinze, who
are not supposed to have any connection
with the case Both sat near the attor-

TESTIMONY LOOKS BAD
FOR THE TWO SUSPECTS
SHOWS THAT THE SKULL OF WELLS WAS FRACTURED EITHER
BEFORE OR AFTER THE SHOT WAS FIRED INTO HIS BRAIN.

The inquest over the remains of Steve
Wells, who was murdered in a cabin near
the city jail Friday night, was held by
cast in the Inter Mountain of last Satur-
day, testimony was introduced by DIR.
Sheeran which went to show that Wells
skull was fractured by a blow either be-
fore or after he was shot.
This testimony which relates simply to
a physical fact, makes it look dark for
the two men--Jam Cox and Charles
Slaton-and supports the theory of the
police that one Of the men did the shoot
ing. 1t IS argued that if highwaymen
did enter the place and fire the shot, as
alleged, and then stopped to crush Wells
skull With some blunt instrument, they
certainly would have taken the time to
slip into their pockets the money that
was so tempt.ngly displayed on the faro
table.
The conclusion drawn by the police is
that a row occurred in the cabin during
which either Slaton or Cox hit Wells on
the head with blunt instrument and
killed him; that finding themselves in
serious scrape they fixed up the story
of the hold-up and then deliberately fired
a shot into the head of the PROSTATE
man. r. G. Vining of Anaconda, who
claims to have been an old acquaintance
Of the dead man, states that Wells true
name was Joseph Stevens and that he
was a native of kirksville, Mo-, where
an uncle and aunt are believed to live at
the present time.
At the inquest Saturday night Officers
Ferns and Matthews told the story of
the arrest of the two men and of the
finding of Wells dead body in the cabin.
Dan Slaton said that he accompanied the
officers to the cabin.
Charles Slaton took the stand and tes-
tilted that he was a cook and resided in
he Paumie block but had been gam
bier for two years. At about 1:3O o'clock
