Elmer Lovejoy, a Laramie automo- bile dealer, testified regarding measare-' ments of the Jennings car, whicn he had made with steel rods, for the pur-| pose of establishing the course of the bullets which penetrated the top of the car and the windshield, He explained} the mechanism of the car and esprassed the belief that the Ughts of the car, had failed because Jennings’ foot, after Jennings had been shot, rested on the starter button and caused the battery to become exhausted. Testifying as an expert on gunshot wounds, Lovejoy re lated the probable effect of butlets of the calibre of those supposed to hive killed Jennings, fired under ciren stances believed to have attached to the! slaying of the ranchman. Lovejoy was sent from the court room to the Dildine garage, across the street from the court house, to examine the! Cordillo car, which, with the Jennings} car, was brought from Laramie yester. day. He caused a titter in the court room upon his return when he said: “There is a mystery about the’ gaso- line tank on that Cordillo car. It is en- of which are connected with valves and drain pipes. One of them is for gaso- line all right, but I am not so sure about the other.” Dr. Alexander Hamilton of Laramie testified regarding the wounds in Jen- nings’ head, and gave expert opinion regarding the effects of rifle and revol- ver bullets.
