Show g ' THE SALT EAKE TIMES, FRIDAY EVLNiyQ, APRIL 4, 1S90. . peet her lo pari with or dispose of them. ToJMr. Easlon I never had any con-versation with Mis Lett about these articles. Mr. Easton, who appeared for the prosecution, 'here introduced Miss Nellie Lett, who testilicd: 1 lived about two weeks in 'Mrs. Stevens' lioitsc; Mrs. Stevens went, to California, Mr. Stevens said to in; lliat "the old woman" had lost her bracelets; I asked who lie meant by the old woman, and he said "Mr. Stev-ens," and added thut "she mitat look alter her own property." Argument tlicn followed, the defense endeavoring to show that unlcs there was an accomplice a man could not rob his wife. The prosecution held that the common law with regard to the rights of women had been hiipplauted by statute in many of the state, and that if a man coiillf buy from and sell lo his wile, he could also rob her. The court took this view of the ease and committed thcMefendaiit to await the action of the grand jurv.UU bonds bciug lixed at $l,00ti. , FOR THE GRAND JURY. rreliuiluaiy t'xHininutiuu or Lorenzo S, Stevens Tor Hie Kobbery of his Wife, HIS yNBLUSHING CONFESSION. "I Let Miss Kiug Take my Wife's Things . to Use, but did not Give" them to Her." Lorenzo S. Stevens was before Justice Lauey yesterday afternoou to answer the chart,"! of grand larceny. He was defouded by Messrs. Jf. J. Ferguson ami J. M. Hamilton, who did all they could for their client, but without avail. There was a disposition cvineed iti tho early part of the examination to argue upon trivial technicalities, which would have been all right before a jury, but which should have uo place before a commit-ting magistrate; and this Justice Lauey gave Ihc legal gentlemen to under-stand. Th first witness called by the prose-cution was Abbic Syphus, and she testi-fied as follows: I know tho defendant and Mrs. Ella Stevens; I identify these bracelets as tho property of Mrs. Stevens; their value is aliout fSO; I last saw them in Omaha; I saw thera in Salt Lake City pre-viously, some time last summer; I do liot know when it was first missed; I identify this fan as the prop-erty of Mrs. Stevens: its value is about $30; I last saw it in Mrs. Stevens' pos-session iu Omaha; I also identify this silk drape us belonging to Mrs. Stevens; it is worth 3; I last saw it in Omaha in the possession of Mrs. Myers; it was sent by her liv mail to Mrs. Steveus in Salt Lako City; this stroct wrap i.s also tho property of Mrs. Stevens; I have seen her wear it in Onjaha--nev- er iu Salt Lake; it is worth $23; after Mrs. Stevens' return home from California I heard defendant say: ' She thinks I took her bracelets, but they were taken before she went to California, and I don't know anything about them;" this was last Saturday, before they were found; defendant also made remarks about other articles; last Monday after-noon he said: "Has the poor woman found her diamond riug? The d d old rip, if it hadn't been for the looks of the thing I would have knocked her down fif noiminrr in fif f ' If OT ll ' To Mr. Hamilton I ain Mrs. Stevens' sihtor-- , I did not sav 1 was familiar with tho value of jewelry, but that 1 knew tho value of these bracelets; I do not know what kind of gold they are, but 1 know tljey were bought for solid gpld.;.Mj's. Sevens never sold nor never voluntarily parted with them; 1 know this because they have always been in her possession; 1 know these facts o my sister told me so; I have no other means of knowing them; the fan Is Venetian' hand-painte- I know its value from Mrs. Stevens telling me what she paid for it; she told me she bought it in Europe; I know that this drape was mailed to Mrs. Stevens because Mrs. Stevens" told mo so; 1 do not know whether Mrs. Stevens ever sold it; I think tho street wrap is worth $25 to-day; Mrs. Stevens told mo it was her property, and I have no other knowl-edge of facts except what she told me. I saw the drape before it was sent to Mrs. Stevens and after she received it by mail; I have had no con-versation with Mrs. Stevens since the goods were found. . To the Court I was not with Mrs. Stevens when the bracelets were bought. John M. Young, sworn I am city marshal; I had no personal conversa-tion with defendant; was present when it conversation was had between de-fendant and Miss King; defendant said lo Miss King, who was weeping, "You are all right; this is my work;" I saw these articles at 82tt South West Temple street; the bracelets were ou Miss King's wrists and tho other articles were in iter possession; she gavo them up to me when I asked for them. Cena King, sworn I have been living tit i)21l South' West Temple street; was help in the house: I have been there sinco just after last Christmas; I have known dufendaut over two years; I rocognizo these articles; 1 lirst saw them in defendant's possession; he brought them to nie; he asked me how I liked tho bracelets and put them ou my ami; he didn't say 1 could have them, nor did he tell mo where he got them; this was siuce Christmas, as near as 1 can remember four or five weeks ago; ho left the fan with mo to go to the opera; when ho brought the wrap he asked mo to try it on, which I did; it was too largo and I took up the seams; he left it with me and 1 wore it lour or live days afterwards. To Mr. Hamilton I never offered to sell nor did J secrete the things; I never used the fan. 1 did not cut tho piece off the bottom of the wrap; defendant never at any time brought meadiamond ring; I never told you so; he has let nie wear his own diamond ring; this piece of silk was not cut off Die wrap by me; I do not remember giving it to tho marshal. To the court-Th-e wrap is the same now iis when it was brought to mo ex-cept the scams; tho goods wero left with me; I didn't accept them as a present; I didn't understand that they were meant as a present. S. O. Ilaller, sworn I am sergeant of police; I went to Miss King's rooms with a search warrant; I had a conver-sation w ith Miss King, but not in pres-ence of defendant; i heard defendant say to Miss King, go down and you will know all about it." Here tho prosecution rested. Mr. Hamilton then moved that defendant bo discharged, on tho ground that there had been uothing but hearsay evidence introduced by the prosecution, because there was no evidence that Mrs. Ste-vens had not parted with the property uutarily. Overruled. The defense then placed Lorenzo S. Slovens ou tho stand, who testilied as follows: I am defeudant iu this action; I am Ella Stevens' husband; we have been married twenty-liv- e years; I have seen this property; it is owned by Mrs. Stevens; it was last in her possession live weeks ago; I put tho bracelets iu my pocket and carried them oil'; I never sold any of the property; I left it with Miss King to use; I never gave it to her; for all I Know or have done Mrs. Ste-vens is still tho owner; I never placed tho articles beyond my reach; I could have got them at any time. To Mr. Eastou I didn't say to Miss Svphus that I didn't know anything at)out the bracelets; I denied to my wife that I knew where the bracelets were; Miss Kiug never asked me to bring her these tilings; Miss Kiug was at my house one night with three gen-tlemen besides myself; she did not see any of these articles at that time; my wife was not at home; another man anil his daughter wero in the house; these articles were not locked up; anyone could have taken them; I didn't return the articles at oncewhen my wife asked for them because Miss King was away from home.
