Auotber Batchof Testimony in the Bal- lard Marder Case, The Old Bluff Made at Reporters— An Expert on the Subject of Insanity, The Ballard murder trlal has reached that point where the attorneys will have an opportunity to alr themselves before the court and jury. The eovidence was all completed at 5 o'clock yesterday evening, and conrt adjourned until 9:30 Monday morning, Much time has been consumed in the trial of thiscase conalder ing the amount of testimony taken on it Yesterdsy morning Judge Nevllle scored some ef the attorneys quite sharply for thelr waste of time, upon the strength of which General O'Brlen took ocesslon to work off that stale old gag about repor- tors being there to try the case; to preju- dloe the minds of jurymen and spectators against the accused, by glving expressiors In the proceedings that are partial and one-sided, _ It so happened that only the Ber reporter was present when Gen. O'Brien struck his extremely dramatle attitude, and attacted the press, and he tried to look at that modest, young Indlvidual, fiercely. He even went 8o far as to move that the reporters be excluded from the court room, while Ballard s on trial, but his honor, Judge Neville, emphatically declared, that he would not entertaln such an unreasonable and foolish motion for the short, fleeting space, of an instant. So far as the Ber Is concerned, not a line, nor a word of criticlsm or opintons have been uttered In its reports. MORNING SESSION, The murder trial, before Judge Neville in which the life of Thomas Ballard is at stake, was resumed yesterday morning with the usual crowd of interested spec- tators on hand. Ohris Hartman, a man who had worked with Ballard, more or Jess, was called to the stand as the first witness of the day. Mr. Hartman’s testimony followed in about the same line as that given by wit- nesses for defenss, Thursday, and was io- tended to show that the murderer had of late years, by reason of excessive drink, become Insane, and was not responsible for his act. Dr. Spalding was recalled to the witness stand for the purpose of proving tho development of moral ineanity In Ballard as well as mental insanity, His tertlmony however, was virtually a rape- titlon of what he teslified to yesterday. The clrcumstance related by one witness yesterday of Ballard havlng at cne time, when beaatly full,went about the street butting his head against barrels, boxes and brick walls is what brought u# this morning the moral insanity question. Chae, B. Berkett, one ef the attorneys for Ballard was called t> the stand. Mr. Berkett had known the prisoner ever since he came to Omaha, about seventeen years ago. He had never known Ballard to be what he considered a sober man; was always trylog to get drank; witnees wlitness knew Verpoorten and so far as his knowledge extended the two men were on friendly terme; Verpoorten often car- ried money from the saloon and turned it over to Ballard; didn’t think that Bal- lard bad very many mental faculties left. C. E. Baldwlin, one of the attorneys for the state, was also examined; he had known the murderer a long time, and alzo knew the murdered; Mr. Baldwin was attorney several years for Alex Damon while he was alive, and has been the legal advisor of Mra. Damon rince his death; he had also been the attorney in three or four cases for Ballard; as to Verpoorten, he was a strictly honest and relisble man; Tom Ballard was a good man in his line of buslness, which was ranner for hotels, and wasnever in such condltion that he could not do business; Ballard was dlscharged from the James hotel on witnesss’ recommenda. tlon, for the reason that they wanted to curtail expenses; as attorney for Mrs, Damon, witness thought that Henry Ver- poorten was the best man to put in charge of the hotel, even over Smith, who was then the lessee. They were compelled to discharge somebody, and It was decided to dlscharge Ballard. At the conclusion of Mr, Baldwi testimony the court adjourned umiil 2 o’clock, AFTERNOON SESSION. The court was called to order at 2 o’clock, Charles Olmstead was called to the stand sgaln, this time by the defence. He testified that Ballard commenced to get drunk on Tueeday night before the killing of Verpooten took place on Sunday. Belng cross-oxamined the witness said that he saw Ballard on Saturday befors the murder, but he seemed to be sti e enlng up then. *‘On Thuraday,” eaid the witness, ‘‘he came and snapped a re- volver at me three tlmes, but I thought he was fooling.” The defence also called Ira Smith tu such proceedings. the stand, He testlfied that on Tuesday morning before the maurder, Ballard called him out of bed and sald, “I'm drinklng, and am going to get drank.” Sunday morning, however, he acted as If he was over the spree, Mr. Joe Miller, the county jailor, wae the next witness. He teatified that when brought to the jail after killing Verpoor- ten, Ballard was under the influence of | 204 liquor, staggered around, and he gave him llquor to sober up on, Continued to|; glve him llquor for one week. The cross exsmination brought out nothing new of Interest, Dr. Spaulding was recalled to make some little correctlons., or rather to re- state some of his previous testimony, whereln he had remarked that the ap- pearauce for a cause for committin, crime, through force of moral insanity, might seem like pure, unadulterated cussedness, THE DEFENSE RESTS, ‘With this the defense rested Its case, and the prosecution commenced to Intro- duce its rebuttal testimony. John F. Blivens was called to testify a3 to the condition of Ballard on Sunday, March 15th, whether drunk or sober. Witness thought he had been drlnking a little, but was not drunk, Samuel Stevenson, who saw the shoot- Ing, thought that Ballard was sober; he also felt satlefied that Ballard was sensible enough to know right from wrong, Dr. E. A, Kelley was called to the tand as an expert on the subject of In- sanity. Dr, Kelly had spent three yesrs and & half as aphysicianin theetato lnsane asylums of Ohlo; icsavity, he sald, con- slsts In & derangement of the cerebreal centers and gray matter of the brain; he never knew of intermltant Insanity but there ls remitant Insanity; the actlons of inrane patients of all klnde and classes were described at conaldersble length; here 1a no such thing as insanity on any »ne jsubject, nor is moral Intanity so classified by scientlsts; dipsomania is an ancontrollable appetite for strong drink; dipsomanlacs are not llable or llkely to commit crime or do Injury to others, anlese attempts are made to restraln them from doing about as they plesse, A hypothetleal question concerning all the facts In the case put to the witness, for the purpose of ascertsining his opinlon regarding the sanity or insaalty of Bal- 1 at the time he killed verpooten, ralsed a lengthy objection and argument from Gen, O'Brlen, but the objectlon was overruled and the wiiness answered substantially as followa: “‘I should say that such & man was not insane.” The cross-examination did not produce anything different from that glven in the direct examinatlon. It demonstrated, however, the fact that Dr. Kelley Is an unnsually bright expert on the subject of Insanity. At the close of Dr. Kelley's testimony the evidence was announced being sll In, and both rested. The case was then adjourned untll 9:30 o’clock Monday morning, when the arguments will commence. RUSTLING FOR ROOM. A Desperate Struggle Between Two Railway Corporations. { The O,iB, & Q., Secks to Enjoin the O, St, P.M, & O, From Patting Down a Track, That old fight between the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy and the Chleago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha railroad companlies, tosecure and occupy the right of way from Farnam to Chicago streets along the river bank, broke out In new shape yesterday. These two corpora. tlons have long been disputing and shak- ing their fists at each other as to which had the best right and should occupy the ground mentioned, At first the Bar- lington & Missouri River concluded that it would go ahead and put down a track anyway, but was enjoyed by the Chlcage, Milwaukee, St. Paul & Omaha, then itlald before the councll an oraf- nance, which if passed would give it the clear right of way to ran scross Farnam street, Douglas street, Dodge street, Capitol avenue, Davenport street, Eighth street, Ninth street and Tenth street. Qulte recently the other company has been making a few moves, as though it Intended to commence putling down track immodiately. To prevent them from 80 doing however, the Chicsgo, Burlington & Qaincy people went before Judge Neville in the district court yesterday, with a petition praylng him to grani an iojunction againet any Judge Neville lssued a restralning order which stands good un- tll Monday, when he will hesr the argu- ments for a permanent injunction. Plain- tiffs petition alleges that they need more track privileges and facllitles for the transaction of thelr basiness here, and that having taken proper steps to recure the eame, they reasonably expect, and are led to belleve, that the crdinance will be passed and be- come a law at the next meeting of the council. Rumors were afloat last even- Ing that the Chicago, St. Paul Minneap- olis & Omaha ratlroad would put a gang of men to work durlng the night, to laying track, and as there ara two dsys togather now, in which court will mot be In sesaion, they can have plenty of time to cover all the ground under dlspute.
