Charles Olski the Swede, who is al- legged to have committed simple assault on W. c. Howell, a cowpuncher, in the West End hotel after a game of poker, was given his preliminary hearing in Justice Wheeler's court.
 The defendant failed to grasp a large part of the. proceedings and in broken English, in which slang words and phrases were injected, attempted to give his version of the affair
 The Swede contended that the cow puncher took a knife and threatened him unless he returned the S30 the de- fendant claimed the cowman lost in the game. He said no other person was present although A. E. Troxel testified that one Billy West had said to him, Me and the Swede have framed up on the cowpuncher." Olski admitted meeting Howell in a pool hall and in viting him to have a game. He said, however they had played on the pre- ceding night

 BODY IN SEWERS

That the entire sewer plant of the city will be examined today, was the announcement made by the street de- partment of the city yesterday, in its willingness to do its bit in an effort to locate the body of Kenneth c. Folston should the missing man be dead.
 The 10 storm water drainage cess pools will be gone over and if this in- spection brings no result the manholes leading to the sewer connections greater than 10 inches in diameter will be thoroughly tested out. Guards will be stationed at the city septic tanks.
 The idea first suggested itself to the city to conduct the search for the miss ing man in this way when a'complaint was recorded relative to a foul odor in the vicinity of a home on Central av- enue and Lincoln street. The street de- partment investigated the manhole which failed to reveal any abnormal condition but which resulted in the plan which will be followed today.
 After receiving word at the sheriff S office yesterday that a body had been buried in the field west of the asylum, an investigation was made at once by Sheriff w. H. Wilky and Deputy Sher- if E. J. Warren, only to find that this clue, like many others that have been advanced, bore no result in clearing up the mysterious disappearance of Ken meth C. F'olston
 Sheriff WillSy and Deputy Warren in response to the telephone communica tion received relative to the grave made a hurried trip to the scene to find that others had been before him in the chance of securing the $350 re- ward that has been offered for Folston dead or alive.
 While the place had all the appear ance of grave and had been dug fully AZ feet. there was nothing to indicate that it had ever held body. Continu- ing their search, the sheriff and his of ficer next gave their attention to tht Yaqui village. making tour of thu mining country in that vicinity, ofteI leaving their car behind and making the trail where a machine could no | travel.
 There were no new developments i they declared on their return las evening.
