Council Bluffs Jan. Sixteen wit
nesses will in all probability be used by
the prosecution of Arthur Hauser for
the murder Of w. Harry Smith, Council
Bluffs man and national treasurer of
the Woodmen Of the World, who was
murdered by a highwayman on an
Omaha street on the night Of October
16 last. The trial of Hauser is to be-
gin next Monday morning, according to
present plans.
Judge James =. English will preside
at the trial Of the case, which will be
held in Douglas county despite the ap-
plication for change Of venue that
was filed OIL behalf of Hauser, alleging
that sentiment in Omaha and Douglas
county was prejudiced against him.
Judge English denied this motion, after
consideration, upon the ground that he
could receive as fair a trial in Omaha
as in any Of the adjoining counties.
Miss Grace Slater of the Woodman
Of, the World headquarters, whom.
Smith was accompanying home the
night Of the tragedy. will of course be
the stellar witness for the prosecution,

Nels Gunnerson, the street car con-
ductor with whom Hauser is said to
have ridden away from the vicinity OF
the crime on the night of the murder,
is among the witnesses subpoenaed,
and new witness has been discovered
in Watson A. Hitchcock, who was a
passenger on Gunnerson's car that
night He has not yet identified
Hauser but is said to have declared
that the man held closely tallies with
the man who rode on the street car
that night, thus corroborating Gunner
sons testimony. #
w. S. Heller, the man who found
the body of Smith after he had beer
shot, physicians who examined the
body and minor witnesses make up the
balance of the list of sixteen witnesses
who will be called upon to testify as
to the circumstances.
So far no inkling Of the character OF
the defense has been given. Hauser Is
without means, and Public Defender r..
S. Horton will appear for him. At one
time there was likelihood that Hauser's
relatives at Topeka would come to his
assistance, but this now seems entirely
unlikely. 81
