TO TRY OTHER CASES.
Absence of Detective Makes No Diff
ference in Provo.
Especial to The Herald-Republice

Especial to The Herald Republican,
Provo, April 27.-When Roger CouI-
thurst, the Salt Lake detective, came
here, with F. r. Muth, to gather evil
dence against violators OF the prohi-
bition ordinance, made an affidavit to
the effect that the evidence he had
given in the case of Provo City VS..
Thomas Halliday was false, and he
and Muth had bought no liquor from
anybody in this city, and then left the
state, it was supposed that the other
cases in which Muth and Coulthurst
were to testify would be dropped. This,
however, will not be the outcome. The
case of Provo City VS.. A. G.. Johnson,
who is charged with selling liquor to
Muth on March II, has been set for
May 4, and the prosecution will try TO
get a conviction without Coulthurst's
testimony and in spite of his affi-
davit.
Johnson is a partner of Halliday,
who was convicted of selling liquor to
Muth, and who was granted a new trial
by Justice Noon when the Coulthurst
affidavit was sprung.
