Hirminrham, May 24-tSpecial)--- Tneer were d number of stirring incl dents in connection with the trial or R L. Leatherwood. charged with as raulting William Denson with intent 70 murder, in the first division or tne criminal court today. One or the GIT maxes was reached when F. G. BOW man. who is assisting the State in ten prosecution, made motion to have uftness named Massey ruled Into court for contempt on the ground that ne had tried to intimidate witness. Judge Weaver, before whom the triai is in progress, said that he would in- vestigate the Incident wnicn was drought about by certain questions put to d State witness. Clinton Caswell, who saw the shooting on Twentieth street. near Avenue A. about one year ago.
 After counsel for the defendant had asked the witness something about conversation he had with Massey yes tcrday, MT. Bowman renewed 1t when he took tho witness
 "Tell the .ury just how this con versation took place" sand the attor- ney who is assisting the State.
 The witness added to the statement he had already made by saying that Massey. who is a witness for the de- fcnse, told him yesterday that he had better eb careful how he testified Tn court. or they would have him in the big rock jail"
 T told him." said the witness, that the only way they could put me there would be by my telling the truth
 "Ah. ha!r' said MT. Bowman. He did not tell you that he himself might be sent there for intimidating wit reas. did he? move the court to summons the witness in question and see if he is not in contempt.
 After some little discussion the mat fer was passed, Judge Weaver saying he would look into the story of the me- gro.
 The plea of Leatherwood's attorneys was not guilty for the reason that their client was suffering with mental aber- alton brought on by a blow inflicted by Denson a year before the shooting, and not guilty of the charge. iWth view of getting some expert testimony along this line a number of questions about the effect of trephining were asked by the attorney for the defense. After one or two had been answered the State objected and finally everything along this line that Dr. John Davis, the wit ness. had said was ruled out as incom- petent. irrelevant, etc.
 Doctor Davis is the surgeon who dressed Mir. Denson's wounds after he was shot He identified the clothing wor nat the time, and the two wounds one in the leg and the other in the right shoulder.
 A decision is looked for by tomorrow.
