Body. The defense put In the two witnesses after Mr. Shay concluded—the District- Attorney himself and one of the couns: for Thornton Hain: testified against the prisoner, counsel for the defense, will call Gen, client, to testify that Thornton Hains had been deputied to watch the dement- @4, despondent Peter, crushed by the tales of his wife's infidelity and to gain @ympathy by their appearance and their grief for the two sons who stand ao- cused. During the afternoon it is ex- pected that Thornton Hains himeelf will come to the witness chair. Ordered to Open Case. ‘The rulings of the Court and the ————— @uring the formal opening of the de- fenee. The trial had been under way only a short time when the Court found it necessary to call down Mr. James W. Young, of counsel for the defense, who fad made a motion for the dismissal of the ind.ctment on the ground that the @rorecution had failed to prove its case. He wanted to argue his motion, but the Jpdge wouldn't allow it. ‘Mt. Young insisted that he had a right enyway to have stricken out the first and eecond counts of the indictment, Specifically accusing Thornton Hains with being an accessory before the fact. He raised the rather novel contention that Thornton Hains could not be legally tried as an acces- sory until. after the man actually charged with the commission of crime had been put on trial, He hadn't Outline ot Testimo seus — Joseph A. Shay arose to open for the defense. Mr. Shay, who fs a small man with a small voice and a poor delivery, | stood facing the jury with his manu- script lying In front of him. He had hardly got under way when up Jumped Mr. Darrin to object to Shay's attacks upon the prosecution's methods and upon ajy reflections en the act of mem- bers of the Bayside Yacht Club in hir- ing a special prosecutor. The Judge promptly sustained him, saying these matters were fit material for the sum- ming up. Mr. Shay got considerably confused at being so suddenly and sum- iarily checked in his opening flight of lame-winged eloquence, but after a good deal of sputtering and protesting, in which Mr. MeIntyre took a hand, the! young lawyer was permitted to go @head. He spoke as follows: "I snail confine myself wholly to placing before you the facts of this case. At the outset let me say to you that we will prove that Thornton Jen- kins Hains had no more to do with the taking of the Hfe of the deceased than we had. We propose to show you that when he left home on the fifteenth day of August, 1998, he had no thought ef going to Bayside. Never Saw Magazine Gun. “We propose to show you that when the start was made for Bayside the de- censed was never in tbe mind of the de- fendant, We propose to show you that this defendant had no {dea thai the de- Ceased would be found at that ptace. We propose to show you that this de- fendant had no knowledge that hi brother had in his’ posnession on that day a pistol and cartridges and that he never saw the revolver in his Ufe until the instant of the shooting. “We propose to shaw you that if the meeting could have been prevented at the time ft was learned that Annis was there this defendant would have so willed. We propose to show you that this defendant was much horror-stricken and astounded at what took place as Were any of the people upon that float. ‘We propose to show you that the broth- er, Capt. Peter C. Hains, was mentally unbalanced, and we propose to show you the causes which led to and created that condition of mind. “Tn 1895 Hains married a most beautiful Brooklyn woman. His married life was -@ marvel of happiness. A little girl baby, Mollie, came into thelr life, and most strange to say, the little one is the indirect cause of the present predica- tent of this unfortunate man, as we ow. “At birth kt was seen that she was de- formed, which In later lite would render speech fnaudible. I am told that the mother Ip her bed was shown the aby and the shock was so great that ther life ebbed away. Both Father and Mother. “Little Mollie was motherless. The double duty of both father and mother devolved upon Thornton J. Hains, and he did his duty well, No such devotion ‘was ever seen “Father's Jove. wrapped up in cufid, child's love and attachment wrapped “up in the father. Was it not to be ex- pected that Thornton Hains should con- Bider the future of little Mollie? Could he not see that in this world of tempta- tion and trouble his little daughter, be- ing grown to womanhood. with her af- fiiction would encounter the adversities of life? Thornton Hains determined the must have a home for his baby / i } Maker she would be well provided OF, “The home was nlways in his life, al- in his mibd, always his first thought. It was no wonder, then, that home was the topic of his conversation aft all times. Little Mollie is now four ers of age. Thornton Hains a long ime ago began to seek @ spot where he could build a home for his child “As you have heard, In the early part of April, this year, while riding on trolley car in the city of New York, ho not shout out, “St back or he'll EM | got very far along this tine when Ju yout" until after Peter Haina had lost hia revolver and was a captive in Boat- man Tonning’s hands, past killing any- who merely contra- dicted the stories told by Pollceman Falion and Cabman Skura, who had On Monday John F.

I will take coconsion at this time to say to the Jury that thie man ts being tried for his own acts and designs and not for | the sots and designs of any other.” “We contend,” added Mr. Young, "that failure to interfere in the commission | of » ortme is not proof of guilt.” Principal, Not Accessory. “Quite #0," said Justice Crane, “but | previous declarations and acts may be | taken in connection with non-interfer- ence as proof of a criminal purpose and Gesign.

He promised, however, that as soon as things cleared up Wé would take Jesper- son in his automobile and go down | there |" Jesperson told him tom urday or Sunday, that he could either gall at Bayside or at Douglas Manor. This defendant understood from. Mr. | Buse that Jesperson was a member of the club. Therefore when he called for jJesperson at fhe club-house it was sur- Prising to him that no one knew him. “Now, among the many friends and Jacquaintances of the defendant was a | gentleman who was called here as a jWitness who was engaged in the busi- ness of concrete mixing, and to him the defendant had always ‘confided his de- {sire for a home for Mollie, They had agreed that when the purchase of the ke it a Sat- jlots | wus completed this gentleman would construct for him a house: “On the fifteenth of August, 1908, this defendant, accompanied by his demented | brother, left his home in Bay Ridge, and his destination was Fort Hancock, N. J., the abode of Gen. Hains and his wife, defendant's father and mother. He reached the New York side of the Brook- lyn Bridge and met their friend, who Was just on his way from his office in Park Row to the new terminal under construction at the Bridge, wherv one of the concrete mixers was being used. At once @ conversation started, and Thorn- ton said: ‘You've got to go with us. I'm taking Peter down to the folks. We're golng down to the poat from Liber’ street and we will come back in the Motor-boat.’ Why He Carried a Gun. “The motor boat, of which you will hear later on, was a most dangerous affair, propelled by a gasoline engine of high power. This friend was much con- cerned over the hazardous trips taken by Thornton and his brother in the boat, You will be told that the defendant often steered far out into the open sea, to make the trip as exciting as possible, the reason for which I shall later ex: plain. “And right here it might not be amiss for me to tell you how it came that | Thornton's revolver was strapped around his body on the day in question It was an old gun of small calibre and ot old-fashioned variety, one that he had owned for twenty-five years, but only carried on the boat trips. You | well understand how he could use it as a signal of distress in the evento} necessity, and also at any time should the boat run out of gasoline at night or in the danger attendant on thelr put- ting in at some wharf infested by thieves or river mauraders, for self-pro- | tection, Then Mr. Shay went on to say that | this friend found it would be too late to |g to Bayside and the brothers went on alone “Now I shall have to take your at- |tention from Bayside,” he continued, so that I may ex we shall offer to show PB, you that on the ‘ uses that created now it was that he lefendant at that tme.” He spoke of the domestic troubles of [the captain, and said that the frequent ‘motor trips were showing a beneficial effect when the filing of his wife's an- swer in divorce proceedings seemed to jcompletely shatter any chance of the captain recovering his reason, Then it was, he sald, that Thornton made up his mind that he could not keep him longer, and was taking the captain to Fort Hancock to say to his parents that he had better be placed under re straint or to return him to duty, Blow for the Defense, At this point the alleged relat!
