BIG SURPRISE IN
HALLIDAY CASE
Coulthurst's Affidavit at Variance With
Ills Testimony Given In First
Trial of the Case.


PROVO. April t2.-Thc affidavit Of
Roger Coulthurst. presented yesterday
in the Thomas Halliday liquor selling
case. on motion for a new trial. 20 the
eject that neither he nor Muth his as
sociate detective bought liquor from
Thomas Halliday. nor from anyone in
Provo. was great surprise 10 the pub
lie generally. who have watched the
case. although City Marshal Williams
states that he knew such an affidavit
or some affidavit OF denial was being
made out by Coulthurst Friday Coult-
hurst sworc in the trial of Halladay.
on the second. that he and Muth went
into Halladay's pool hall on March Is.
and that Muth bought the liquor there.
and also that they were i'm the place
the 18th Of March. A complaint was
made against ANel Johnson. Halladay's
partner. after the Halladay ease was
tried. The city depends upon the evil
dence OF Muth and Coulthurst 20 con-
Wet johnson. and IL is said others. This
testimony, with Coulthursts denial
VIII not now be very valuable. unless
Coulthurst can be brought back and
convicted Of perjury himself in swear
ing to the affidavit. That he periured
himself either when he gave testimony
in the Halliday case or in the affi-
davit IS. OF course. certain. and the city
marshal and those who are interested
in seeing the prohibition ordinance en-
forced are very anxious 90 have Coult-
hurst brought here and placed on trial
on the perjury charge. In fact. an
lawabiding citizens are anxious 20 have
him brought to trial as they agree that
his offcnse is "a more serious one than
the onense Of which Halliday was con-
victed as il strikes fundamentally at
the administration OF Justice
Coulthurst left Saturday Il is said
for Virginia city. Montana. Mr. Muth
the principal detective. did not know
he had gone tin he (Muth) was informed
over the phone that something had
been going on In the affidavit way In
salt Lake the day before. Then Muth
went TO look up Coulthurst and learned
he had deCamped. County Attorney
Evans has some doubt about the adj
visibility OF bringing Couthurst back
on the ground that # Is not known az
which time ne swore falsely; but as II
IS certain he did on one occasion. ac-
cordlng to his own confession. and as
testimony can be obtained
In either case. unless all the other wit
nesses have also switched. 70 would
seem that a case can be made against
him. and he viii probably be brought
back. n he can be located, and the
opinion Is general that 10 Is wcll worth
the money and time necessary 20 bring
him back, and this viii probably be
done.
The prohibition people and city Mar
shall Williams are. Of course greatly
over the turn things have
taken. as II seems probable all their
past work 10 secure evidence against
violators Of the prohibition law has
been made useless. but they win not be
discouraged by this failure, but WIN
continue the campaign for a vlndication
Of the ordinance and the enforcement
Of prohibition.
