VENUE CHANGE IS DENIED
' IN SIMMONS’ CASE.
Walter Simmons, charged with the
murder of Frank Pahl of Spencer, last
May by beating him on the head with
a hammer, will be tried at the regu
lar October term of the Boyd county
district court at Butte.
The motion of the defense for a
change of venue, was, over ruled Mon
day by District Judge Robert R. Dick
son at a special session of district
court at Butte.
Immediately on the over-ruling of
the motion Attorney Wills for Sim
mons asked that a continuance later
than July 31, the date previously fixed
for trial, be granted to enable the
taking of special testimony of foreign
witnesses for the defendant. Counsel
for the state, intimating that if the
continuance asked for was granted it
would also desire additional time to in
vestigate the past record of Simmons
and the reliability of the' Montana
witnesses proposed to be summoned
for the defense, stated that it would
require at least until September to
fully prepare the state’si case.
Expressing an unwillingness to in
cur upon the already overburdened
taxpayers of Boyd county the expense
of a special term of court in Septem
ber, so close to the regular October
term, and to call the hundred or more
persons, who necessarily would be in
volved in a special term of court,
away from their agricultural pursuits
at such a time, Judge Dickson set the
trial for the opening day of the Octo
ber term. Tne postponement will
enable the state to cull and eliminate
much immaterial testimony and to
uispense with immaterial witnesses,
who at an earlier date might have had
to be subpoenaed in a hurried prose
cution.
Mr. and Mrs. S. G. Coover and
niece, Miss Louise Reif, and Mr. and
Mrs. George Hunter of Page, were in
O'Neill Wednesday.
Judge Robert R. Dickson is visiting
bis brother at Osage, Iowa.
