pear for preliminary examination on
Friday next. Adams made no state
ment other than to demur as to the

"When Conneu was sent to Seattle he
found that Adams had access to the
vault where. the dust was deposited
Connell provided tests with 1000 ounces
of gold dust. He had it assayed anC
weighed and placed in the vault withir
reach Of Adams, who entered shortly
after noon, and just after everybody
had left after closing hours. When
Adams was arrested a pair of GOLD
scales and q supply Of black sand was
found in the vault.
HThe gold dust is deposited in cans
with the, names tagged on each. Adams
took out three ounces from each of the
cans and then put back three ounces OF
black sand.''

make tonight was:
