The accused was the only witness for the defense, and he told of killing Dyer Copeland, although it was not premeditated. He sought to secure some money from <Copeland, and was refused, after which he struck him down with the iron bar. Coroner Brown Finishes. ‘When the court opened on Thurs- day morning Coroner F. H. Brown was recalled and completed his testimony rgearding his investigation. He said he told Bogardus what Edith West and Kiley had said, after which Bo- gardus sald: “I killed Dyer Cope- land; I am guilty,” after which . he told it in detail. The coroner told of going to the Copeland barn and finding the bar cov- ered with- bloo® and described the JOHN BOGARDUS. location. On cross-examination the coroner sald hig first examination of dus was September 10 at the London police station. He did not know Bogardus had been arrested and liberated by the police. There was no promise of leniency made to Bo- gardus and he made his confession He did not say he went to money of Copeland but said < his purse. After telling that d Copeland, Bogardus did not want to talk any more. e, B, Rogers of New London told of examining the blood and hair | on the bar. The hair, he said, was that of a horse. He was not cross- examined. Bogardus Tells His Story. After being allowed ten minutes for consultatio the attorneys called John Bogardus, and every eye in the room was centered on the prisoner, who walked deliberately to the wit- ness stand and told his story in a matter of fact sort of a way, his un- flinching nature standing the ordeal with marked coolness. Bogardus testified that he was born in Fishkill, N. Y. 23 years ago. He went to work when sixteen and was employed by a florist, stable keeper, and another florist, after which he | worke in New York and then at Beach Haven, Pa., in a brickyard with his father. Returning to Fishkill and working a short time he joined the army, being sent to Fort Trumbull in 1906. In Ne ondon he was a chum of Kiley, During the first week in September he had been drinking much and on Labor day, which was a holi- day at the fort, he drank in four New London saloons with Kiley. He had Labor day, pay day being s off, He knew (Copeland as who solg clothes to the sol- The accused testified that he told Kiley he was going over to Cope- land’s to borrow some money and said he had sold Copeland a suit of clothes.

Mr. Copeland was found be- tween the barn and the house amd was asked for a loan of $2, refused. Bogardus followed him into the barn, but he refused again there upon being asked again. He sald the soldiers owed him money and he told Bogardus to go out and called him a vile name. Bogardus got excited and, grabbing the iron bar, struck the old man over the head with it, knocking him down, and strdck him several more times, after which he went through the pockets, taking his purse in which, he thought, was about $7. Bogardus met Kiley after that and told him of killing the old man and getting his money. He told of giving Kiley some money and the disposition of the pocketbook. Denied Some of Kiley's Statements. Bogardus related the washing off of the blood from his trousers and and of meeting Edith West and his ar- rest later. He said he had no idea of killing the old man. He became en- raged and excited in the barn, and as he had been drinking much, could re- member but little of what happened. EN: denied that he told Kiley that he was going for a dagger under the hay stack, or that he asked him to go with him and hit the old man over the head. He said that he did not tell Kiley that he had killed any other man. Severe Cross-Examination. State's Attorney Hull cross-examin- ed Bogardus, and the accused could not tell how he rememered he owed for beer but could not remember many of | the details about the killing. He could not tell how many times he hit the old man. He said he could not remember when asked to show with the iron bar how he struck Copeland. Jabbirg the floor three times with the pointed end of the crowbar, State's Attorney Hull asked him if that was the way he struck Copeland, but witness said he could not remember. He could not re- member how he went through the old man’s pockets, or whether his face and head were bloody. He said he did hot mean the iron bar when he sald he was going to find the dagger. He could not tell how he found the bar. He denied saying that he would kill Kiley if he told, and could not tell why he tola Bdifh West to say she gave him money at 151 Main street. Kiley to say they were at 151 Main street. He denied telling Kiley that he | put his hand on Copeland’'s head and | one of the soldiers said: “Good boy, Johnny.” This completed the evidence and both sldes rested. After a shotr recess the arguments were commenced, and fin- ished during the afternoon, State’s At- torney Hull closing at 3.50 o'clock. At- torney Whittlesey opened for the state, and was followed by Attorneys Geary and Smith, State’s Attorney'Hull clos= ing. There was a short recess then, and when the jury was called in Jud, Wheeler stated that owing to the late- nes of the hour and disliking to hasten a verdict in such a case, to had, after a conference with the attorneys, decid- ¢d to dismiss therm until 10 o’clock this morning, which he did. Monsain to Plead Guilty. Mathias Monsain, who s charged with purglary in Salem and who is to plead guilty, was presented Jbefore the court uron order of the state's attor- ney and was put to plea, but it was found he did not understand Epglish, and it was necessary to postpone the matter until this morning, when a Ger- man interpreter will be present. Jurasz Murder Trial Next. On Thursday John Jurasz, who is charged with assisting in the murder of a woman in North Lyme, was brought here from New London, and was in the dock during the afternoon. He Is to be tried next. An exteapanel of thirty jurors was drawn in the aft- ernoon, and Sheriff Brown sent his men out to summons them in today, the se- lection of a jury to be made while the Bogardus jury is out. It is not proba- ble the case will be started until next week. MOULTON HAS CASE \ CONTINUED AT ‘NEW HAVEN. Goes Over Two Weeks Under $500 Bonds—Never Had Account in Own Name. Although a continuance was granted Thursday in the New Haven city court in the case of John P. Moulton, who is charged with making and uttering fraudulent checks in New Haven, at the request of Judge Mthewson the evidence of the state’s witnesses was presented, so that those who were from out of town would not have to appear again. Edward B. Fames, a broker, who cashed two checks of $10 and $50 re- spectively for the accused, stated that he had en acquainted with Moulton for the past six months, and that on Jan. 25 he c d a check for him for $10, and the d i first one was cashed in the Hotel Dav- enport, here Moulton was staying, and to which place he had summoned the witness by telephone. The checks were drawn by the accused on the Thames Loan and Trust Co. of Nor- wich. Martin Richmond, of Richmond & Eno, proprietors of the Palm barber shop, said that he accepted a check she acc d offered drawn on the same company for the sum of $20 in pay- ment for work done in the tonsorial line, and gave him the change. The check was returned as bad. Dwight L. Underwood, assistant tfeasurer of the Thames Loan and Trust Co. of Norwich, took the wit- ness stand and said that the accused at the order of his wife had been al- lowed to draw checks on his company, but that the wife’s account with the company had been discontinued last Mareh. He also stated that the ac- cusec never of his own had an account with the company. Judge Levi N. Blydenburg, who rep- resented the accused, in asking the court to fix a bond, stated that the de- fense of the accused would be that he did not draw checks with intent to de- fraud, but that he supposed there was money enough In the bank to cover the amounts. He concluded by saying that the continuance of two weeks would show that the persons who re- ceived the checks.would not suffer any financial loss on account thereof. Assistant City Attorney Ieradi re- plied by saying that it was not at all improbable that other counts might be filed against Moulton, as the evidence in his possession was such that it might support them. The bond was fixed at $500. Moulton was formerly a grocery clerk here. He married Miss Mary Baker, niece of the late Dr. Beckwith ‘of New Haven. Rehearnmg for Play. By the regular social programme for the Haile club, Thursday evening should have been the monthly evening at cards for the members, but it was postponed this time in order to make time for rehearsals for The Garden Party, The others of the club’s weekly social nights are also to be postponed until after the play has been given. LARGE CROWD OF SPECTATORS THI SSEASON Many Out to Watch the Horses Broadway Speedway. Thursday afternoon there was a number of fast steppers out on the Broadway speedway for brushes over the snow, and the spectators on the curb, who numbered more than any other day this season, saw some good on sport, although it did not last long. Roan Lady, driven by her owner, Thomas H. Wilson, was again the fastest after she had been rigged with the starps. Without the rigging on, her owner sent her over the course severa]l times against Bill 'Emonds’ bay, Sleepy Frank, and the latter took the measure of the roan mare, send- ing her to a break, but after Roan Lady had been put into her racing clothes she had the speed on the Emonds horse. One of the best heats had four speedy ones in it, Roan Lady, Sleerv Frank, Mr. Mason of Lebanon with a black mare, and Tom Mullin driving & sorrel belonging to Thomas J. Wat- tles of Norwich Town. The race for the Jead was between the Wattles horse and Roan Lady, the former get- ting off in the lead and holding it un- til the fina] spurt,’ when Roan Lady drew out and finished first. Emonds, with Sleepy Frank, had a pretty strug- gle with the Mason horse, but came over the line ahead of the black mare. Mr. Wattles was out with another trotter, but he let his sorrel do most of the brushing. Several exciting and close finishes with the honors now this way and now that were furnished by George Mahoney with a bay trotter, and a black trotter belonging to Henry F. Parker and driven by Jim Connell. The Parker horse cast a shoe, and had to retire after some fast going. George Mahoney was also out with a gray trotter that showed good speed. According to the measurements made by Civil Engineer Pitcher sev- eral years ago when he surveyed and marked a mile up Broadway from the Broadway Congregational church, the speedway is just about a half-mile in length. The first quarter-mile mark was at the house of Miss Ripley on Broadway and the three-quarter-mile mark was at the Park church steps, this being just about the distance that is used for speeding, and by the sur- veyors’ measurements is just about half a mile.
