10 - THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8, 1898-12 PAGES. PRAYERS OFFERED Se Court Asked for Instructions by Counsel in Canty Trial. ——— INTRODUCTION OF BELATED EVIDENCE Arguments of the Attorneys on Points of Law. SSeS JURY HAS A RESPITE —_— After announcement had been made by counsel on both sides of the Canty c: today that the evidence was all in Justice Cole granted the defense’s request to re- case for the purpose of introduc: dence of Joseph H. Polkinhorn, nee as a possible witness the oy ing the of whose ex! defendant's counsel said they were not aw until late last evening. Briefly stated, his testimony was for the purpose ef showin arent carelessness on the part of Pawnbroker Grose’s employes in complying with the law requiring the names of purchasers of deadly weapons to be ascertained and registered by the li- censed sellers. It was not very material to the main point in the case, but its introduction shows that Justice Cole is affording Canty every proper chance to save himself from the gallows or imprisonment. ‘The prayers of counsel were also sub- mitted and the remainder of the day was spent in arguing upon them, the jury, meantime, enjoving a deserved respite from their trying task. Prayers for Instructions. It being announced that all the evidence for both sides had been effered, District At- torney Davis arose and said: “New, if your honor please, we iors which we desire have to sub- Mr. Davis ther proceeded to read, with- out argument. the following prayers for the prosecution: “First—It is a conceded fact in this case that the defendent shot and killed the de- ceased at the time and place and with the weepon described in the indictment; the anestion .o be determined by the jury upon the evidence is whether such killing w criminal or excrsable. The prosecut claims that it was criminal, and the de- fendant claims that it was excusable. Mur- cer is the offense with which the defendant is charged, and this offense is committed when a person of sound memory and dis- ereticn unlawfully and feioniously kills a himan being in the peace of the United States with malice aferethought. either ex- press or implied: and, accordingly, if the jory find from the evidence that the de- fendant killed the deceased without just provocation or excuse, as hereafter de- fired. the law implles malice in the killing. and the defendant should be found guilty as Indicted. , “The defense in the case ts self-defense. which exists when one without fault is as- seiled by another under such circumstances furnish reasenable ground for appre- herding a design to take the Mfe of the fermer, or to do him some great bodily harm, and there is reasonable ground for believing the danger imminent that suca Gesign will be accomplished; in which case the one assailed may safely act upon the appearances and kill the assailant if that be necessary to avoid the apprehended dan- ger, but not otherwise; and. accordingly. if the jury fird from the evidence that the so as eireum ces killed the dece otherwise, the jury should acquit the de- fendant; but the jury is that the killi: g of the deceased b fendant is not excused by the assailed and that he beli in the daneer assumed lieve from the evidence that the defe «id not have reasonable ground to hend such danger, and did not in fact estly ed himself to be aud {f the jury be- pre- hon- »prehend it, but acted upon alleged apreerances at the time of the killing with- out reasonable ground for such apprehen- sien. and not b ng that such alleged e;pearances really indicated or imported such danger, but intending to avail himseif of the same only as a pretended excuse for the killing, the defendant is guilty, as though no such appearances existed, ard the jury should so find. Use of Werds as Justification. “Second—The use merely of words, 20 rratter how offersive or insulting, does not justify an wult by the person to whom they are wu: apen the person using them. r does the threatened use cf such is on future occasions justify such as- sault y are accordingly instructed that if * find from the evidence the y preceding the killing and insulting words to public street and in Ss standing by and ad threatened to use simila fendant. in the presence the public, whenever and might subsequently meet the and should further find that Gefendant when the deceased and the defendant met on the day of the killing the defendant be- Tieved that the deceased then and eased then and pur- nt to such threat intended to repeat nd insulting words, in the ring of persons present. and that the nsive and in- or to pr it the repetition or for both reasons, shot the de- intending to kill him or do him bodily harm, such circumstances afford no ex for such shooting the jury shkeuld find the defendant Ity as indic F er Definition. “Third. The jury is instructed that the use merely of words, no matter how offen- sive or insulting, does not justify an assault by the person to whom they are used upon the person using them, and similarly that the threaten of such words does not justify such assault. The jury is accord- ingly instructed that if it find trom th evidence that at the time of the fatal en- counter between the defendant and th the deceased used to the defend ant offensive and insulting language, with- any act accompanying the same and ating his present readiness and pur- to inflict om the defendant either ath or gr lily harm, the defendant s just assaulting the de da, whether for the purpose of chastisement or to take his life; and if the jury find from the evidence that, under the circum stances assumed, the defendant in anger at the use by the deceased of such offen- sive or insulting words took the life of the d. the defendant is guilty as indict- ed and the jury should so find. And the d fendant is so guilty notwithstanding that the jury should further find from the e dence that the dec d had on his person or in his hand a deadly weapon without meking eny demonstration thereof or there- with which afforded the defendant reason- able grounds to believe, and upon which vunds th ndant in good faith be- eved, that the deceased intended to take his life or to do him great bodily harm. Right of Defense. “When a person is unlawfully assailed by another, he has the right to defend him- self against his assailant and to use suffi- cient foree to make his defense effectual. But the law never permits the unnecessary use of force; wherefore, when a man is assailed he must not use force to defend himself if he can otherwise protect him- self; and if he has other means and ways of avoiding the assault that appear to him the time sufficient and available, and are, in fact, sufficient and available, he must resort to them, and cannot justify the use of force for his defense, for in that se its use would be unnecessary. Accord- ingly, if the jury should find from the evi- ence that the defendant was, in fact, as- gaulted by the deceased and had other ways and means of avoiding the assault than a resort to force, which ways and means appeared to the defendant at the time to be, and, in fact, were suffic‘ent and available, and the defendant yet did not re- sort to such ways and means, the killing of the deceased was not excusable, and the defendant should be convicted. “But by this is not meant that the de- fendant. was required to resort or to at- tempt to resort to any such ways and Means unless the same really seemed to bim sufficient and available ond were s wm fact, or if by attempting to resort to them the danger to the defendant would | against the defendant which had been com- thereby be increased. Accordingly, if the jury find from the evidence that the de- ceased assaulted tif defendant under such circumstances (hat there appeared to the detendant at the time ways and means suf- ficient and available, and which were, in ct, sufficient and available, to enable the defendant to eseape from such assault and its consequences without a resort to force, and that the defendant yet resorted to force resulting in the killing of the deceased, the defendant should be convicted. | Matter of Doubts. th—The defendant should not be con- victed unless the jury fs satisfied from the evidence of his guilt beyond a reasonable deubt. By reasonable doubt, however, is not meant every doubt. It is not a cap- tious doubt; it i uubt which must grow out of the and imparts such a ulting from a consid- the jury as y as reason- G condition of mind re eration of the evidence before nee make it impossible fer the j able men to arrive at a satisfactory con- clusion, 1 it is not a co iousness that a conclusion arrived at may possibly be erroneous, but arises cut of such a state of mind as deprives the jury of the ability to ch a conclusion that is satisfactory. Acccrdingly, the jury is instructed that | if the evidence be to the minds of the jury f such a convincing character that the | jurers would unhesitatingly be governed it in their own weighty and important tters of life, they may be said to have | no reasonable ‘doubt, notwithstanding the | urcertainty which attends all human ev | dene accordingly, if, after an im- { partial comparison and consideration of all the evidence, the jury can say that it ha an abiding conviction of the defendant’s guilt, such as the jury would be willing to st upon in the more weighty and import- ant matters relating to their own atftairs, they have no reasonable doubt and should cenvict the defendant. Opinion of Others. “Sixth —Further defining _ reasonable dcubt, the court instructs the jury that in order to convict the defendant it is not necessary that the jury should be satis- fied that its verdict would receive the ap- Probation of others than themselves ac- quainted with the testimony, or fear that it would receive criticism at the hands of such. A reasonable doubt is not a doubt which might be entertained by any one net a member of the jury, nor is it such a dcubt as might be suggested by others than members of the jury upon considera- tion of the evidence. If the jurors were called upon to act upon their individual judgments as to the guilt of the defendant, and are so satisfied from the evidence of such guilt as that they would act upon the assumption of its being established, they have no reasonable doubt and should convict the defendant. Duty of Jury. “Seventh—If, upon consideration of all the evidence, you have a reasonable doubt of the guilt of the defendant, you should acquit him, but if upon such consideration you have no such doubt, it is your duty to ccnvict him. A reasonable doubt 1s what the term indicates; it is a doubt based on Teason, and which is reasonable in view of all the evidence. it is not a captious deubt, nor a doubt suggested by the in- genuity of counsel or jury and unwarranted by the testimony, nor is it a doubt born of a merciful inclination to permit the de- fendant to escape conviction, or prompted by sympathy for him or those connected with him. -if on an impartial comparison and consideration of all the evidence, no matter how conflicting and even irreconcil- able in some respects you may find it, you have an abiding conviction of the gulit of the defendant, such a conviction as you would be willing to act upon in the more weighty and important matters relating to your own affairs, you have no reasonable doubt, and should find the defendant guilty. ghth—If the jury find from the evi- dence that any witness in the case, wheth- ez for the prosecution or for the defense and including the defendant himself, has testified falsely to a fact in respect of which such witness cannot be presumed liable to mistake. the jury may, in its dis- cretion, wholly disregard the testimony of ch witness, and every such, in the case. Defense Offers Further Testimony. Mr. Worthington, after Mr. Davis had concluded, announced that the defense ob- jected to certain parts of all the prayers of the prosecution. Before entering upon this subject, he said, he would offer the defendant's prayers. Mr. Worthington further digressed by stating that last night he had received a letter from a gentleman well known in this city, who stated that about sixteen months ago he had been in Pawnbroker Grose’s store, when a man who seemed to be half-witted entered and bought a re- volver. He was about to depart, when the writer of the letter remarked that the pur- chaser's name had not been taken, as re- qui by law. Thereupon, the letter stated, the pawnbroker’s clerk went through the pretense of taking the man’s name Nov “I had iad Mr. Worthington, not pli much stress upon the revolver in the ease, but as Mr. Davis has seemed to regard it as vital, very vital, for what reason I do not know, I'd like to have the privilege of introducing further evidence upon this point. The writer of the letter, Mr. Polkinhorn, is in the court—" “I object, decidedly object,” interrupted Mr. Dav He claimed that the evidence ts of no value, because the evidence already in shows that Canty bought the weapon three to three and a half years ago, and that since then the personnel of the store has changed, and that the fact that upon the occasion, sixteen months ago, now under discussion, an employe forgot to take the purchaser's name is no indication of gen- eral practice. Mr. Worthington suggested that Mr. Polkinghorn, accompanied by one of coun- sel for defense, be permitted to go to Grose’ nd to see if he can identify Mr. Middaugh, who now has charge of the tore, as the one present sixteen months ago. If he so identified Mr. Mid ugh, then defense would offer Mr. Polkinhorn’s evi- dence. The court agreed, and the intended witness companied by Counsel Thomp- son, left the room. Prayers by Defendant's Counsel. Mr. Worthington then read the defend- ant's prayers, as follows: rst-The jury are Instructed that the defendant is presumed to be innocent of the offense for which he is on trial, and that he is entitled to a verdict of not guilty, un- less upon all the evidence the jury are sat- isfled of his guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. ond—If the jury find from the evi- dence that Rye by his words and acts prior the day h> was killed, and on that day immediately before the shooting, caused the defendant at the time of the shooting te believe in good faith, and upon reaso: able ground, that he, Ry2, was about to make a deadly assault upon the defendant, then the jury are instructed that the de- fendant had the right to use all necessary Means to d>fend himself against such ap- prehended assault. “I want to say,” said Mr. Worthington, during the reading of the second prayer, hat the defense objects to all of the pros- ecution’s prayer so far as it relates to what is r2asonable doubt.” “We'll discuss that at the proper time, responded Mr. Davis. «to Rye's Intentions. “Third—It the jury find from the evidence that the deceased, Rye, just before the shooting which resulted in his death, ap- proached the jefendant in such a way as caused the defendant in good faith to be- lieve, and gave him reasonable grounds to believe, that Rye was about to make a deadly assault vpon him, then the defend- ant was justified in acting upon that be- lief, even though it should appear as mat- ter of fact that Rye was not armed at th> time. “Fourth—If the jury find from the evi- dence that the defendant had reasonable ground to believe, and did believ>, that an essaull might be made upon him by the de- eased by which his life would be put in er, or he would be in danger of great bodily harm, he had the right to arm him- self for the purpose of protecting himself against such assault; and if such assault was made upon him he had the right to | protect himself against it, even to the tak- of the life of his assailant. Fifth—The jury are instructed that in determining whether the defendant in tak- fe of Rye acted in good faith reasonable apprehension that he was in danger of losing his own Hfe or of suffering great bodily harm at the hands of Rye, they should take into consideration, along with the other evidence in the case, any threats which the jury shall be satis- ed from the evidence Rye had made municated to the defendant. The Alleged Thrents. “Sixth—The jury are instructed that In determining whether Rye at the time of the shooting which resulted in his death made or undertook to make a deadly is sault upon the defendant, they should con- sider, along with the other evidence in the case, any threats which they shell be sat- isfied from the evidence Rye had made against the defendant, waether comreuni- Cited to the latter or not. : “Seventh—If the jury find from the evi- dence that at the time ef the shooting which resulted in the death cf Rye the de- fendant was on the street in the lawful pursuit of his business, and that an assault was made upon him by tne deceased froma which he had reasonable ground to believe and in good faith did believe that he was in danger of losing his own life or of re- ceiving great bodily harm, he was not re- quired to retreat from his assailant; and if, under such circumstances and because he believed his life to be in danger or that he would receive great bodily harm, he shot and killed the deceased, he is justi- fied in so doing, and their verdict should be not guilty. Reasonnble Doubts. “Eighth—If upon all the evidence in the case the jury entertain a reasonable doubt as to whether the defendant shot and kiil- ed Rye under the belief, in good faith, that it was necessary to do so to prevent Rye from killing him or doing him great bod- ily harm, then their verdict should be for the defendant. “Ninth—The jury are instructed that if upon the whole evidence they have a rea- sonable doubt as to whether Rye at the time of the shooting which resulted in his death had in his possession, open, the knife which is in evidence, identified by the wit- ness Riley, then the defendant is entitled to the benefit of that doubt. “Tenth—If the jury from all the evidence have a reasonable doubt whether the de- fendant at the time he shot the deceased in good faith believed and had reasonabie ground to believe that he was in danger of losing his own life or of suffering great bodily harm from an assault by the deceas- ed the verdict should be not guilty. “Eleventh—If the jury find from all the evidence that the defendant at the time he shot the deceased had reasonable ground to believe and did in good faith believe that he was in danger of losing his own life or of suffering great bodily harm from an assault by the deceased, actual or in good faith apprehended, their verdict should be not guilty.” Evidence Given Yesterday. Unimportant evidence was given yester- day, after The Star's report closed, by W. B. Bryan, J. H. Lemon, James Chase, George H. Christiancy and Mrs. James Small. They were call2d by the defense in sur-rebuttal, and their testimony was pure- ly corroborative in character. The afti- davit of witness Frank Fordan was read, and it stated that he had seen Canty and Waggaman in conversation at the Wyatt building jus: before th2 shooting. Defendant Canty also testified with re- gard to the preparations he said he had made on the night before the shooting that he had meant such actions as he had taken in regard to the arrangement of certain pa- pers in anticipation of his death next day. The Final Battle. The preparations for the final battle for legal points between counsel were then ac- tively begun. Court attaches came wheez- ing into court under the burden of formid- able stacks of law books, and as each load arrived batches of spectators tiptoed out into the corridors, in evident fear of the dry period about to ensue. Luckily for the jury, they were not in court, and enjoyed a long rest from the task of sifting the conflicting and contra- dictory testimony necessarily a feature of trials of this class of criminal cases. Canty placidly chewed gum and sat with arms folded during the broadsides of counsel, now and then bending his head to hear the whispered words of his wife at his right side. Mr. Van Senden was not present, but all the other members of the friendly ‘con- tingent were in the room and took a list- less interest in the reading of authorities. Mr. Worthington Leads. Mr. Worthington led off, with an elab- orate exposition of what constitutes reason- able doubt and quickly culled from a host of books the material paragraphs in sup- port of his contention. In the meantime, Mr. Polkinhorn, whose given name is Joseph H., returned, and Mr. Worthington stated that he had identi- fied Mr. Middaugh as the person whom he saw. Despite objections from District At- torney Davis on the ground that it opens up a collateral question, Justice Cole de- cided to hear the evidence later in the day. Virginia Republican Axsoctation. The Virginia Republican Association held its regular meeting last night at F street northwest, when the special commit- tee made a favorable report on barbecus and picnic to be given in the early future. The project for the purchase of a hall for the use of the club was discussed. ‘Th? ob- ject of the club in owning and controlitgg a hall of its own was stated to be chiefly to assist the Virginia republicans, who, after being disappointed in seeking office, often find themselves without money or friends. Therefore this will be known as the home of Virginia republicans. Messrs. Holliday and Herd of Virginia addressed the club. - At the Soldiers’ Home. The programfurnished last night at Marble Hall, Soldiers’ Home, for the tem- perance union of the home, was excep- tionally fine. ‘There were several selec- tions by the band and hymns sung by all ent, after which followed vocal solos y Mr. Thomas, Miss Boyer and Alice Murray, all of whom were applauded. ‘ihe feature of the evening was an address on the evils of drink, by Rev. J. A. Cunnane, who also gave | the epening inveeation.” The evening closed with faney dances by Misses Sarah and Marie Howe and thelr pupils, Alma Ris don, Nettie Jarrett and little Catheri Davis. In every case the dances were heartily applauded and some were obliged te be repeated. The union will close its mectings for the summer July 5. On the the 28th of this month Miss Cisneros and Mrs. Logan will address the union. EOE AUCTION SALES OF REAL ESTATE, &c. Today. James W. Ratcliffe, Auct., 920 Pa. ave. now.
