rant today. If the sheriff of Carbon
county gives Keefe up he will be
brought to this city and placed on trial.
If he declines, and cannot be made to
obey the mandate of Judge Carpen.
ter's court, Keefe will probably be
tried there.
Will Apply for Bail.
About the first thing to be done, in
any event, will be to apply for bail
for the defendant, his attorney holding
that, as the first offense was made a
batlable one by the result Of the trial,
the second can be no worse In degree.
1t Is probable, too, that an effort will
be made to have Keefe discharged un.
der the claim that the killing of Baxter
n King was one o~ffense, for which he
has already been punished. The case
will be watched with interest, not
alone from the merits of the case as
concerns Keefe, but as to its prece-
dence in the criminal jurisprudence of
the state.
