Arguments were then begun by csunsel as to the admissibility of W. C.

The question had arisen during the xamina- tion of the witn and ment had been pos Juror Re. During the reading from authorities by cctnsel, one of the jurors, despite his very evident efforts to keep awake, dropped off into would yesterday series of cat-naps, from which he emerge oceasionally with a start fan himself. Directly opposite him in the audience sat the elder- ly man who has been a constant daily at ‘ and he, too, as usual, was peace- lumbering with head resting on his hand in an attitude designed to make it appear he wes intently listening, but with eyes shut. Indifference and inattention was manifest all over the room Even the pr.scner and Mr. Wortaington induiged in a sotto voce conversation, which was far away from the topie Mr. Davis was then discussing, alternately reading from’a large beok or addressing the judge. Mr. Davis contended taat it was a mat- ter of right that the jury, should be per- mitted to hear evidence shéwing the stace i evious to the homicide of the Because; this question has ver been decided, so,far as he knows, in y similar case, is no reason why such evidence is inadmissable. Testimony of this class going to shéw the ‘mental staie of a man toward another prior. to a homi- cide in which the first ia killed, is certainly proper. It is for the ,purpose of meeting and rebutting evidence’pf threats that this evidence is offered. Mr:“Davts offered many illustrations frem lifetin order to. fortify his argument and warosngup to his theme made a powerful plea to dustice Cole to sustain his contentions. 2 As the noon hour eprfroaghed there were many additions to the eudience, which then reached its usual large praportions. Many well-known member of the bar and busi- | ness men were observed, and a number of | iadies foilowed the course of the case. “It is a remarkable: fget; in this case,” said Mr. Davis, “that the alleged threats by Rye were, it appears: by 1>fense's’ wit- nesses, made by him to solitary ifdtviduals. | prosecution is confronted at this point by the inability to go beyard the individual.
