Cenelusion of the Testimony for the Prosecution—Story of the Shooting as Told by Mrs. O’Neil—Opening for the Defence—Epilepsy in the King Fam- My—Mrs. King and O’Neil’s Intimacy. | Pretty good headway was made yesterday in the trial of James C. King for the alleged muraer of Anthony Ff. O'Neil, A larger crowd than on any day since the commencement of the triai filled the Oyer and Yerminer court room. Among the tprong of curtous spectators were more ladies than heretofore. Im fact the crowd was so large it reqnired an extra force of officers to keep it from filling the ¢ourt room to an inconvenient excess. No change shows itself in the demeanor of the prisoner. He sat quietly by his counsel, ex Judge Beach, William F, Howe and John O, Mott, and quite frequently cou- | sulted them during the process of exdmining wit- | esses. For the prosecution the testimony con- | cluded with tha of Mrs. O'Neil, the widow of the | murdered man. She recited ner story ima plain, | straightiorward way, but at one stage of it was obliged to desist through being overcome by her emotions at the memory of tie sad tragedy. The articles found en the deceascd were also produced im court, including a photo~ | graph of Mrs. King. After the defence | witnesses were examined cie of the prisoner testified to epilepsy bet largely prevalent in the family, | Other witness:s juve interior glimpses of the prisoner's domestic jife at Turner’s Station on the Ene Railroad, and the incentives to the homicide.
