Witnesses Examined by
Both Sides.
The Hearing Is Attracting Great
Deal of Attentlon--PuIlfnan Com
pany Inquiries About Trouble Which
Occurred Here Recently.

The preliminary hearing Of Charles
Bradford, charged with assaulting
with intent TO kill, David McClain on
Monday evening, July 5th, began in
mayors court at 1 o'clock this after
noon. A half score witnesses have
been subpoened and the trial will un-
doubtedly extend into night session.
The defense is attempting to show
that Bradford's act was committed
purely in self defense. The witnesses
for the prosecution will testify that
Bradford was not in danger of any
bodily harm when he threw the club
at his victim. Attorney Fred w. War
ner is acting as counsel for the de-
fendant while the case is being prose-
cuted by city solicitor Elmer 4. Boyd.
The trial seems to be excitinng con-
siderable interest and the court room
was well filled Friday afternoon.

had enabled her to speak to Haines as
she had, was gone; girlish fears now
swept over her as to the outcome of

"Ah! Then Stevens and Peabody

He had started for the door when

by her brother Randolph.

Yes" supplemented Bud, there has

me from Senator Langdon."
Carolina Langdon drew herself up in
her most dignifed manner.
I'm sorry, Mr.. Haines. but you
must accept it," she said.

ator Langdon entirely declines to re-
ceive you"
81 don't trust anything you say,
Congressman Norton, and | may say
also that | recognize no right of yours

Perhaps l can explain my right,

denouement, shot searching glance
at Carolina. She bowed her head in
affirmation.

Langdon to Congressman Norton, then
back to the girl.
They stood facing each other when
Randolph Langdon returned. at sight
of Bud Haines he started, stopped
short a second, then came forward
quickly.
"Mr. Haines, my father has declared
that he will not see you, and either
you leave this house at once or 1 shall
