estlng.
The crime was committel in Tono-

Sheriff did not serve that warrant
on the defendant or make return of
the same, but instead served one is
sued by the Justice of Belmont town
ship, over 60 miles away from the
scene of the crime. The effect of this
procedure was that the preliminary
examination of the prisoner took
place at Belmont, inetead OF Tono-
pah. The Belmont Justice held him
for mansaughter and fixed his bail
at ". U0O, which, AZ laSt accounts ne
had failed to procure. subsequently
District Attorney Richards present

cause why he did not serve the war
rant issued by the Tonopah Justice.
We are informed that at the time
of the killing public feeling was very
bitter against Smith and the Sheriff
feared the prisoner would be taken
from the insecure jail at Tonopah and
iynched. Hence he was removed to
