MCGUIRE AND ASSOCIATES ARE
BOUND OVER.

Witness Stand-Contradicto
EvIdence-BaiI Fixed at $500.

The preliminary hearing OF MCGUIRE,
Bramlett and Garrett. charged with
the robbery of Frank Goff, was brought
to a close today, each of the defend
ants being bound over to the district
court with bail fixed at $500.
IN giving his decision the court stat
ed that he considered the gravity OF
the affair as brought out through the
various witnesses as fully sufficient to
Justify him in holding the accused men
to higher court,
A number OF witnesses were exam
ined today including Bert Cody
Stats" Rochelle and Kelly" Collins
who carried Goff upstairs while he
was In an unconscious condition. An
other star witness, DR.. Belnap. who
had apparently been held back for sew
eral days by the defense, was put on
the stand and. upon being asked an
unimportant question by the defend
ants attorney, broke down and sobbed
like an hysterical child. The city ply
sician was called to attend him, after
which he was taken to an ante'room
and his testimony taken.
Chief Clerk Jones, of the Utah Con.
struction Co, was called and told OF
Issuing to Frank Goff q check for 1921
on the day stated In the testimony. the
cancelled check being introduced as
evidence and registered as an ex
hibit,
The testimony of DR.. Belnap did not
agree with that given by his colleague
DR.. Estes. The latter said that ne
went alono to attend Goff, while the
testimony of DR.. Belnap, as well as
Mrs. Loveless was to the effect that
DR.. Belnap had accompanied Estes
and was In the room when Estes
wrote the prescription. Belnap stated
that Goff talked disconnectedly Of nav
Ing money enough to pay his doctor
bill and afterward said he had been
robbed of $3.50 In bills. $50 In gold and
gold watch. Belnap went down and
asked about Goffs money In view OF
insuring the payment of his bill, and
Mcclure said he did not know Goir
nor anything about him.
In regard to carrying Goff upstairs,
former witnesses said That Gon had
tumbled over in front OF the bar anu
was taken Immediately up stairs. Dut
another witness then stnted that ne
had been called to assist and that ne
had found Goff lying In back room
unconscious, tending to corroborate tne
story of Goff.

TWENTY HoRsEMEN PURSUE
SAVAGE BEAR

Salt Lake. Jan. 1S.-A thirty-thirty
bullet fired from modern nigh power
gun yesterday ended the earthly career
of one of the finest specimens OF tho
brown bear family that has been seen
around this state for many year.
The fatal shot was fired almost
within rifle range of Salt Lake City
and came after five hours chase,
during which time the bear lod the
party of mounted pursuers through the
deep brush OF City Creek canyon, up
and down the rocky sides of the noun
tatns back OF Dnsign peak, through
ravines and gullies where II Was I'M
possible for horses to travel. until the
bear was finally cornered in as Wild
and rugged spot as one could find in
any country.
A slender Salt Lake maiden, VINO
would look more at home in a bollroom
than mounted on a horse tearing UP and
down the mountain sides, fired the
shot, quickly followed by second. and
tne bear, which few minutes before
had cuffed the dogs aside as they
snapped at his heels. dropped stone
dead.
Her name Is Miss Helen Boes. and
she Is the daughter Of John F. Boes,
of this city. 1t took steady nerve to
face an angry bruin, who, knowing
he was cornered, knew that he had but
one chance, and that was to fight. But

fected by high water and washouts.
In the meantime, all Southern Pa
