Justice Sweeney at once granted the
change Of venue TO Justice John II

for this afternoon.
Butterwood has employed Greer
and Logan, attorneys, to defend him
In fact Greer has been acting as But

tie.
At times the objection Of Attorney
Logan and his clash with Deputy Dist
rict Attorney Fry became severe and
heated. once Attorney Logan al
most completely lost his temper and
went after the deputy district attor-
ney in a fierce manner for objecting
to his objections and branding them
as foolish. Logan declared "a whole
regiment of gentlemen cant keep me
from objIcting."
Attorney Logan did not want the
witness to be allowed to detail many
Of the circumstances connected with
the deal he made with Butterwood
Mr., Logan's objections were over
ruled along this point,
Mr.. Walkers testimony clearly in
dicates that Butterwood had practic-
ed fraud and seemingly strong array
Of evidence is being piled up against
the defendant.
Mr.. Walker was on the stand for
over an hour.
Following Mr.. Walker Attorney
William Weiser, who was sent to
Utah to examine the titles of certain
properties. which titles Butterwood
claimed were good testified Atty. Wet
ser found that these titled were not
clear but that Butterwood had made
gross Misrepresentation.
Attorneys Logan and Greer object
ed to every question asked Mr.. Wes-
er. in fact they objected to every bit
of evidence that was offered during
the afternoon. Their line of defense
for Buttcrwood is involved in an
effort to keep the discriminating eyi-
dence against their client from reach
lag the court. Every witness was in
terrupted time and again. Some Of
the objections were sustained by Jus
tice Hill many were overruled.
There is a chance that before tho
trial ends the missing deed involved
I'm the case and Which Butterwood at
times has claimed never existed and
at other times lntlmated that II was
in his possession may be brought to
light.
The trial will probably be ended at
late hour this evening.
Attorney Henry II. Rhonc who
overheard certain conversations But
terwood had with Mr.. Walker, was
on the stand at 3.i5 O'Clock.
