COLEMAN Wins ONE POINT
Man Accused of Murder Is
Held Over for involuntary
ManSIaughter Only.

A J. Coleman, the negro who shot and
killed John F. Larsen last Sunday morn
Ing, scored a point yesterday when Jus
uce OF the Peace Dana Y. Smith bound
him over to the district court for inVol-
untary manSlaughter only.
). A. King OF Provo, attorney for Cole
man, argued for a dismissal of the de-
PENDANT, asserting insufficient evidence
had been produced to justify his being
held for manslaughter, either voluntary
or involuntary.
Assistant County Attorney Willard
Hansen spoke at length for the prOsecu-
ton. Mr.. Hansen maintained that an
abundance of evidence had been sub
mitted to justify Coleman's being held
to the district court for murder in the
first degree The circumstances of Cole
mans shooting of Larsen, who Coleman
claims to have thought to be a highway
man, were discussed in detail by both at
tOrneyS.
After the arguments had been closed
the matter was taken under adviSement,
but in a few minutes a decision was
passed to hold Coleman to the district
court for involuntary manslaughUer. He
is at liberty under 81 900 bonds This
amount was secured by Bruce Johnson
and other prominent negroes of Salt
Lake. COleman's wife and baby boy have
attended every session of the preliminary
hearing.

SAYS NAME WAS HURT.
Juan Castina Files Suit as Result of
Arrest,

Juan Castina filed suit against the
Davis Shoe company and Aaron Levitt
yesterday in the district court for ma
liciously and without probable cause
disgracing his good name and business
reputation. The plaintiff made three
counts in the complaint and asks for
total of $4,000 damages.
Mr.. Castina charges that the de-
PENDANTS had him arrested on a war
rant on the charge of obtaining goods
under false pretenseS- He further al
leges that he was imprisoned for seven
hours and had to put up 800 bail to
secure his release. He was arraigned
and given a trial before Judge c. B.
Diehl and acquitted of any Offense. He
was doing a general delivery business
and had a contract with the defendants
to deliver all their packages. The
plaintiff had received forty pairs of
shoes for which the defendants had
received no delivery slips and it is al
legged that upon this informa ton the
plaintiff was arrested.

STORY IN STREET TRAVEL.
Keen Observer Draws Logical De-
auctions.

Any person who will spend a few
hours on State street betw cen the Ea-
gle Gate and Third South street can
not help being convinced o. the growth
of Salt Lake City This fact is partic-
ularly noticeable in the block between
First and Second South streets. Bust
ness men on State street Arlphatically
declare that nearly one thousand more
persons travel between First and Sec
ond South streets, on the west side
of State street, during a given time
now than did one year ago. This fact
is especially noticeable near the Or
pheum theatre and at the promises of
the Consolidated Wagon Sc Machine
company At the latter place large
throngs of conference visitors are ex-
aiming the new lines of farm fmple-
ments, harvesting machinery and We
hfcles This concern has been COM
PEELED to employ a number of addi-
tionaI statesmen to handle the in
creased trade. Manager Odell says the
business of his company in Salt Lake
is far in excess over last year during
the same period. Therefore. the con-
cIusion is reached that not only does
what has been observed indicate the
growth of the city. but of the state as
we'll. See the Mitchell two-cylinder
runabout automobile. 1t is gem.

ADJUSTMENTS

The recital given in Barratt hall
lost night by J. J. Mcclellan and Mrs.
Emma Ramsey Morris was in every
way a success. 1t has been a long
time since the Salt Lake public has
had an opportunity to hear Mr.. Nc
Clellan at the pianO. the instrument
to which he Was educated and with
which he is most proficient. Although
he must have been wearied with his
eXacting work during the conference
meeting, Mr.. Mcclellan has never been
heard to better advantage than last
night. No less than four of his selec-
tiCns were from the works of Chopin,
the master piano composer In every
thing that goes to make up perfection
in technique in sympathy and IN bril-
lance of execution Mr.. Mcclellan eX-
celled last night. His work was real Iy
a revelation to many who are most ia
miIiar with his splendid talent as an
Organist. Other selections by Mr.. Nc
CleIlan last night were from NOllet
and DeIibes.
Mrs. Ramsey Norris, always a IA
vcrite in Salt Lake, was in splendid
voice. Especially well done was the
aria from The Barber of Seville -
ROssini's great opera But so. too. were
Mrs. Ramsey Morris other selections,
chosen with a view to displaying the
wonderful quality of her voice, and
ranging from the aria from Samson
from Carmen" to Just Awearyin'
For You" and 1.-The Lass With the
Delicate Air
The REILLY & Wood company opened
yesterday at the Lyric an enga cement
that will run through next Friday
evening. The organization is hardly
up to the Lyric standard, although
there are several numbers that seemed
to tickle yesterdays audiences I'm
mensely. Among these are DAILY and
Reno, comedy acrObats; the Revere
sisters and the golden ballet The set
pieces, "SimOn Simple and Simple 81
mon and "A Hot Time at Reilly's''
are not very amusing
Manager RiddeH of the Grand said
yesterday, relative to the charge that
the play put on at that theatre under
the name of Her Fatal Love" was
THE SQuaw Man, that the play was
really THE Texas Ranger" the right
to produce which has been purchased
from a New York firm. Mr.. RiddeIl
submitted manuscripts of both The
Texas Ranger and THE Squaw
Man" and it is quite apparent that
some pirating has been done for the
situations, and the stories are Identical
in both plays. AS Mr.. RGyle is a play
wright of established reputation, one
famed for his clever and original ideas,
it would be absurd to charge him with
pirating THE Texas Ranger" The
conclusion that the author, name not
given on the manuscript. Of THE Tex
as Ranger got his ideas from 1.-The
Squaw Man" is irresistible, and it is
equally clear that Messrs. Pelton &,
Shutter and the Theodore Lorch COM
pany have been imposed upon. 1t
should be explained, further, that the
reason THE Texas Ranger was not
presented under it's own name is that
there was no paper for it.
