He was not, however, lodged in jail, but permitted to spend the night at a Broadway hotel in custody of Officer Eaton. He was' taken before Justice Ouren yes- terday morning and his preliminary hearing on the charge of assault with intent to commit murder was fixed for Thursday.: His bail was placed at $800, which later in the day he furnished. 5 Howard's version of the shooting affray at Cut-Off is that Brown resented Howard giving some women permission to pick flowers growing in the yard of the saloon. After a wordy dispute Brown drew his re- volver, but Officer Eaton interposed. Then Brown leaned over Eaton's shoulder and fired at Howard, shooting him in the wrist, inflicting a painful but not serfous wound. Following the shooting Brown armed him- self with a shotgun and defled anyone to arrest him.

DES MOINES, June 15.—(S8pecial)—The somewhat famous Greenwell case from Mexico will not be finished immediately. The case has assumed some pecullar phases since it was started. Greenwell Is accused of murder In Mexico. He was arrested In Davenport and held, awaiting the requisi- tion of the Mexican government. He was brought (o Des Moines for & preliminary hearing before Clerk McArthur of the fed- eral court, acting as a commissioner, and this hearing has-developed into a trial for murder, {n which the Mexican government appears as prosecutor, and an attorney is hera from Mexico to that the case is prosecuted to the finish. But the proces ings are so pecullar that the attorneys have been having trouble. One rule in regard to such matters was that while the testimony of the Mexican government might be shown by depositions that of the defense must be by oral testimony. The mpossibility of putting up a good defense here by oral testimuny was apperent and so the at- torneys in the case telegraphed the Mex- ican ambassador for permission to make a showing for the defense by depositions. In order to get these a thirty days’' continu- ance was agreed to. In the meantime the attorney for the Mexican government will remain here and Greenwell will be sent back to jall at Davenport. ‘Suurce of lowa Immigration. E. D.
