Smith of Fremont , Nub. , Claims Was tinVlattrr. . The c.ibo of Mr3. Jennie Smith against the Ctl7cns ! State bank Is on trial in the dis trict court. Extended mention of this suit has already been made In The. Bee , and the sensational disclosures already made public are found not to have been overdrawn. Mrs. Smllh was In Denver , and while there she saw an advertisement In a paper asking for a female companion for a gentleman who was given to traveling. She claims her nephew answered It as a Joke , and the man who had advertised called at the room in the hotel St. James , vvhcro she was stop ping His name was Proctor , and , although Mis. Smith denied having answered the ad- vertl cmeut , an acquaintance spuing up which afterwards became quite Intimate. Mrs. Sm'th's husband lives In Fremont , Neb. They Wfie not living together at the time , bul Mr Smith occupies a chair by his wife's side In the trial of the present case. While In Denver Pioctor , who Is said lo be In Ihe real estate buslnes ) , took Mrs. Smith up to Longiuont , Colo. , to look at a p'cce of real estate vvhlt.li she wauled lo pur chase. The purchase v\as made and a cei-- ttflcate of deposit for $1SOO was given In payment. Mrs. Smith Ib now suing to re- covtr the certificate. She claims that during her Intimacy with Pioctor she was In the habit of drinking gin on account of kidney Iroublo , and several limes Proclor got the medlclno for her. He also drank of the gin. This took place , she says , on the day when the tiansfer of the real estate was made. She snjs thai when she assigned Ihe ccrllllcate of deposit she was under the In- fiuonce of the liquor , which had been drugged. The clerk of the St. Jamoi hotel has testified under oath that Proctor carrieJ her to a room In Iho hotel In a dead faint on the night In question. The president of the Longmont bank , F. H. Stlckney , on Ihe other hand. Is hero to swear that at the tlmo the transaction took place she seemed to bo perfectly rational. The Iransfer of Iho paper was made In his bank. There nro many Interesting features In the testimony. If little birds In the nest can't agree they fall out.

The article claims that by a chain of suspicions circumstances Ud Heed , a blacksmith , formerly residing In this tlty , Is connected more closely with the murder than any other party , and intimates that Heed Is the murderer. The article stated that Mr. Heed had skipped the country and was In hiding In parts unknown. The facts In the case appear to be entirely different from the Gazette's ! -tateiiiens.

He was In Creston Saturday evening , and since reading the charges against him has com menced action against the Gazette In the sum above slated. The theory advanced by the Gazette was at the time of the murder thoroughly In vestigated by Deputy Sheriff Dert Hall and County Attorney James G. Dull , and while some suspicion rested upon Heed , there was not biiinclcnt evidence to arrest him for the crime. The article claims that Heed had suddenly disappeared after the murder be came general talk , but It Is learned that he was In Crcston and attended the trial of Daldcrson and Kltld , the men charged with the dime.
