Ing Of killing.

Before II. l.. Grigsby. justice OF the
peace. the preliminary hearing of
bad" Baker and his wife, Katie
Baker is scheduled to open tomor.
row morning at o'clock In the
district court room at the county
court house on n charge OF the muir
der Of Leon Gilbreath, waiter at
tnc American cafe. last Thursday
evening.
In the warrant issued for the ar
rest OF Baker and his wife. they are
charged jointly with the murder and
I. was thought this morning that
they would face the preliminary
hearing jointly. In the event that
they are held for the action OF the
district court. II will be the privilege
Of the defendants to demand separ-
ate trials, II was pointed out to-
day.
II is not known whether Baker
will waive preliminary hearing.
After the shooting Thursday eve
ming. he surrendered his gun and
himself to Patrolman Claud Baird
who took. him to the county Jail.
There. in the presence OF the county
attorney, he admitted killing Gill
breath. giving as his reason that Gil
breath had been intimated with Mrs.
Baker. He named the date of the
alleged associations. as last Decem-
Der and said that he knew where
he was at" when he fired the shots.
The county attorneys office is
attempting to hold Mrs. Baker on a
murder charge, on the grounds that
he pointed Gllbreath out to her hus-
band n the time of the shooting.
Bakers statement after the shoot
ing was that he had never seen
Gilbreath before the fatal evening.
Baker claimed that he went to
the American cafe to get some sand
wiches and that when he came out
he saw man standing by the car
talking to his wife and that when
he approached the car he asked
his wife II that was the man and
upon her affirmative answer, the
shooting occurred.
The state expects to show by
evidence that Baker went to the
American cafe where he asked for
Gilbreath and when that young
man was pointed out to him, took
him to the car where Mrs. Baker
was sitting and that the shooting
followed a short conversation there.
Since his arrest a few minutes
after the shooting Thursday eve-
ming, rumors have twice been afloat
in the city that Baker has attempted
suicide in his cell at the county
court house, but county officers de-
clare emphatically that this is en-.
tirely untrue.
On the first occasion, which was
last Friday, Baker had a fainting
spell which, according to his father,
was the, result of an attack of the
heart, to which he says, his son is
subject. On the second occasion, an
driving to the jail to re-
move Mrs. Calvin Brock, sister-sn-
law of Mrs. Matt Sankey, from the
Sankey apartments there, prompted
the speculation which grew into a
definite report concerning Baker.
