Lehman, wealthy rancher and son OF

will be tried at Beach during the jan

trict court for the murder Of Matthias
Wetzstein at the home of the latter's
mother-in-law in Richardton on May
20, in accordance with a. change Of
venue granted by Judge w. c. Craw-
ford on Wednesday,. The question OF
admitting Lehman to bail was argued
and taken under advisement by the
court. Lehman has been in jail since
the day Of the murder. When his at
torney, Senator l.. A. Simpson, made
efforts in April to procure bail for his
client, 80 kichardton people appeared
in protest against Lehman's release
Since that time some Of them have
filed counter,affidavits,, and most tell
ing argument presented in court yes
terday was the fact that the father
and brothers of Lehman's victims
have asked that he be given, a trial
in, some county other than Stark. ,
Lehman does not deny that he
killed Wetzstein, but he claims that
he acted in self:defense after the de-
ceased had threatened his life. The
woman in the case was Wetzstein's
wife, former housekeeper for ,Leh.

have entertained an attachment which
did not cease with her marriage. Leh-
