DENVER Colo. Nov 99.-The jury

husband, which went out last night
has reached verdict.
Judge Allen, however. had not re
turned to court and those chiefly inter

Her brother and sister remained with

was over.
From time to time during the re-
mainder of the night the matron
looked into the cell. The prisoner was
either awake. tossing fitfully, or moan

in the second story OF the Court House,
twelve men, scarcely less restless dis

It was nearly s o'clock this morning
when Mrs. Patterson arose. The pal

POLICE
CAN RELIEVE
CONGESTION

At conference between the Board
of Police Commissioners. Chief of Po-
lice Michael Corioitt and the Board of
Works today the traffic congestion at
Market and Broad streets was dis
cussed
City Counsel James r. Nugent in
formed the commissioners that the po-
lice had the right to stop any wagon
not having business in Market street,
between Mulberry and Broad, from go
ing through, and that they also had
the right to make traffic going east in
Market turn south into Broad street
unless the drivers had business in that
block.
1t was pointed out that this was a
good time To make some such regula- :
ton, since wagon traffic has been
forced To go through Clinton street, be-
cause of the repaving of Market street.
The Board of Works suggested that
the mounted policemen should go on
duty a little earlier, and President
Kane promised that the men would be
out at o'clock tomorrow, instead of
$40.
Chief Corbitt suggested that an ordi-
nance should be made compelling all
owners of large trucks to keep a man
at the head of the horses all the time
they are standing still, in order to
prevent the frequent blocking of other
traffic,

fore Judge Martin month ago and

time Miss Heath told of having been
snubbed by Mr.. and Mrs Maddox in

pied by Mr.. Maddox under the terms
of the will of Mrs. Heath. who died
several years later than her husband.
Under her will the handsome resi-
dence at 300 Roseville avenue, with its
furnishings, stable, horses and car
riages were given to Carl0tta Heath
with the provision that Mr.. Maddox
was to have the use of the home and
to pay the operating expenses, provide
for Miss Heaths education and train
ing until she was 20 years of age un-
less Mr.. Maddox should marry before
that time.
MIR. Maddox did marry, and from
that time on Miss Heath says she had
nothing to say about the way her own
home should be run. She alleged dur
ing the hearing of the petition that
her coachman was discharged, although
he had been paid for years and used
by Mr. and Mrs. Maddox out of money
belonging to her estate. She also said
that while she was at school--she was
home only during the summer months
