He said there was nnwilier wound on the neck, which was About three inches lon^ and perhaps aTl ilic-h deep. This wound Mas about an {rich above the wound which., in his op-yi-iim caused the death of Mr. Burke. Attorney Soule objected to the introduction of the. fragments of sleel in evidence insisting that they had not. been properly identified, claiming, that the (kroner could not swear to his own knowledge, either of the pieces hnd been tak* from tile wound*.

Kd Willard. who works for the Vigo Commission company, and who was room B1£ at. the home 01 Mr. liurkc, saw Alexander at the Daniel's livqry... stable, at jjjbout 9 o'clock when lie canie' to the stable, and pat about, a. short time. He »aya Alexander left the stable at about $:30 o'clock and that lie next saw him, between 10 and 11 o'clock, when he was feaving the east, porch of the Uurkc frome and going toward a shed at. (he. rear of the'premises. lie says that when jVIrs. Burke came to the stable and called for help. Mr. Phillip May went in response arid that he, Willard. followed to the ea-st end of the stable where he had an un-obstructed view of the east porch. He said that he could not be mistaken in his identification of the negro, whom he saw leave the porch after the murder had been committed. He was put through a rigid cross-examina-tion, but the defense got rio expression from him, which would contradict direct Statements, or tend to confuse his testimony in any of the materia! points.

Aft-*r Mr. Willard had been excu-ed from the stand the state begun calling poli.e officers to prove- the arrest of the Recused, anil his- condition w.hQH found in the oats bin. in- Ahejdft of Burn's barn on North" Eighth ^street'. Patrol men Nick Feiler, Fred Armstrong,. John Mc.Culloch, Osgood ttarkness, W m. Gregory and Frank Fedderson, who made the arrest 'were called .tp the stand, each man giving a description of the negro, and telling of the bloodstains on Sis shirt front. The. object of this testimony was to/pipye?'tltt prisoner at the bar was the person who was found hiding in the. barn loft. Daniel Fasig, sheriff, v,hp. took charge. of rjyisoncr after arrest, was, placed on the Stand and told erf takirig the' prisoner in carriage and the..train and pf his tiip^to Indiana•olis. Sajs he saw blo.od on prisoner's Nothing, but was" in too big a hury to inake any critical examination,

When Sheriff Fasig was excused from the stand, Prosecutor 33ea.K .announced that the state worna rest its case, on tne evidence already introduced Attorney Soajc said that he .would ask the ^Indulgence of the court for a little extra fimo for counsel with his »^ociate and tlie elicit but would be .reftdy with his Opening statement by 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

Afternoon Session.

I^Tlie fact that the state rested its case and the Supposition^'thatsthe murderer would* be placed on the stand to testify in his own behalf, created, new interest and when it came time to open the doors this afternoon'-the halls leading to the court room were congested with people eager to hear what the negro might hive to say The .dobrs.were left open until the room was nlfed when they were closed wit it instructions that no more people be adiriittcf io' the court room unless on business.

At thu convening of court, Sheriff Fasig was recalled to the stand by the attorneys for the defense, over the objections of the state's representatives. MT.

Fasig was cross-examined as to the shirt worn by Alexander when arrested, When the shirt was brought into court uUd the sheriff was asked to identify it the attorneys for tlio state again objected on the ground that the shirt could not be introduced, on cioss-exjimination. but if defense desired to make the sheriff a witness for the~defen.se the shirt could then be introduced. The court sustained this objection. Then Attorney Soale it lid Prosecutor Beal held a short consultation after which the attorney for the defense announced that I hey ould rest tm the evidence introduced by the state, 'i'lierc was expressions of surprise mingled with those of disappointment upon this announcement. Hundred? had been speculating as to What the'defense Would be and there was a general eagerness and impatience to hear the opening statement. Hundreds of others, curious to hear what the negro would say had crowded into the court room anxious to /see him placed on the witness stand. The trial came to a sudden and unexpected conclusion, and before the anxious jTpwd outside the.railing, knew what :\Vas going on. the prisoner was .ushered ip^'t of the court room ,n%d up into the garret, where he Mil be kept .under the guard of a dozen 0iv so deputy sheriffs, until the twelve men who now hold his Ji(e in their hands, axe ready to announce their verdict.

While the negro fully realizes the im.jrortance of the proceedings hei maintains the Bame air of indifference and defiance.

He lias shown no interest in the trial,, -save once ortwice, \vjienhe leaned over

what the ver^fcV'wiH be 'jw* anv. person is a thousand milest oway. J^ln di soussing the unexpected move of the defense, Attorney Soale said, that to place thf imirdertU1: „tQU the .stand. .would on}^ gr olpngi^att^«.,'i:hkf, what -Jtf might saj' ^o&ld' he ,,w.holl.y. unsupIfiOried, and would give the prosecution chance in rebHttkl. to ihtlo^iieo the had made to "tine reportera1"^, while on tli«. tiaip .cn.rfjirte Ipdfrnapoiis. lu addition toMhis, the negro is.

IT is .plainly appaiieiit tli'at the atto.rney^'see ho hope for a light sentence, and are only using strategy in an effort to save the man's Biftfk. The negro, himself, says that he has no chance and it is apparant iha.t he hopes for nothing in the way of leniency.

When court convenes in the morning. Deputy Prosecutor Wallace will make the opening argument argument for the state, and will be followed by Attorneys Poale and Austin Sweet for the defense. The lawyers can use rio part, save the unimportant discrepeneies of the testimony in behalf of .their client and will devote their allotted time to pleas for mercy. As iioihing can be accomplished by attacking the testimony of the eyewitnesses to the tragedy, (he plea for mercy is acepfed sis-the logical course. Prosecutor Beal will make the closing argument, for the state, but a« flic evidence was plain ^and'brief, lie will require but little time, and it is 1 bought that not over two hours will be consumed 1*41 argument*. The instructions by .Tudge Piety will require less than thirty minutes, and it' is now thought the jury •will retire for deliberation bpforo noon and that a verdict will lie returned- soon after noon, unless an unexpected difference arises as to the measure of punishment to be inflicted. The court has exercised the greatest precaution in giving the defense wide scope, in order to avert, the possibility of anew trial, and but. one or two exceptions have been taken. Tt is therefore reasonably sure that the verdict brought in by the jury, perhaps tomorow, will be final

After Mrs. Ellen Burke was excused from the witness stand yesterday, her 13-year-old daughter, Gertrude, Mas called, and told what she know about the slaying of her father. She is an exceptionally bright little girl, and while her child-like voice was pathetic she showed no excitement, and gave her testimony in a cool clear way. as did her mother. She described the interior of the room, in every detail, locating the most unimportant articles of furniture. She says that she retired some little time before her father and mother and did not know exactly -wfiai time they came into the room, as she was asleep. She M-as awakened.by. the screams of her mother, but the fatal work of the negro had been accomplished, before she was clearly awake. In a el«ar ybicei-which penetrated the remote parts of the room, she told of the information from the excited mother that the father Mas dying, and how she dressed hurriedly, and ran through the darkness to St. Benedict church to call the Kev. Father Ki'zef. In the remainder of her evidence, she ^corroborated the statements given by her mother. Slite stood up well under the trying ordeal of the cross examination, and proved an excellent witness for the state. ,:v -I

The next 'witness was Mrs. Anna ,Whissen who was at the time living at the Burke home. She knew practically nothing about the murder, as the crime had been commited before she was i-alled by Mrs. Burke. She siays'that she drtesed hurriedly and ran ta the Daniels feta-. ble near-by to call for help, when she returned she entered the hallway leading to the room, where she fell in a faint, caus/d by the fright As soon as she recovered she went to her rqom for a bowl of water and a towel, which were used in washing the blood from the face of the murdered man. She corroborated the preceding witnesses as to the arrangement of the room and. the location of the murdered man's body, with the pool of blood about it. She was crossexamined to some extent, but'whs not drawn from any of the material points of her statements made on direct examination.

The next witness called was Mrs. Jennie Helm. She heard the noise in the room down stairs. She heard a voice which she recognized as that of Mrs. Burke say, "lie is dead," and she went, down stairs a nil looked in the door and saw the body lying near the sofa, as has previously been described. She then returned to her room as she was so badly frightened that she could be of no assistance. She was excused from the stand M'ith a brief cross-examination.

blood on the

floor. He. looked tow-aids the windowin the door und saw Alexanders face close to the glass. He was positive in the recognition of the man, and saif.t that Alexander had no hat on. On cross-examination he said he was five or six feet from the door and that the loom Mas light enough for him to see Alexander plainly. He said that Alexaiu#r stepped back, and he did not go outside to follow him. After he had done Miiat he could to help Airs. Burke he went back ta the stable.

Dr. M. A. Boor, Mho was called to the Burke home in the attempt to save the. life of (lie negro's victim, M-as placed on the si and, to describe, the nature of the Avound, which he ssiid could not have resulted in anything but death. He said thai as the oral organs were, partially severed, he-did not believe, the man spoke after the

M-hen

cross-examination,

he stated that he saM- nothing of Alexander on the porch when he was there. Court Adjourned. ,.,

After this'witness had given his direct testimony, he Mas taken in hand by the defense, and a desperate attempt was made to shatter his testimony which' to a slight extent, in some instances, was suceesful. It

Mas

the first time the

state had attempted to attack a witness. by the process of a severe crossexamination, and those who had been watching the witnesses march to and from the chair and escape M-ith so few questions from the defense were taken hy surprise. In no very material point, however, did Matthewson vary from the statements he had made in behalf of the state. It is now certain that the defense is intending to attempt to show that Burke killed himself, and the crossquestioning of Mr. Matthewson gave the first intimation as to the motive for self destruction, which the defense will attempt to show.

It M*as near 5 o'clock when Matthewson quit the stand, and the court after giving the jury the customary instructions about alloM'ing no person to talk to them regarding the case, and to read no papers containing reports of the trial, court was adjourned until 9 o'clock this morning.

The private car,-which was only recently turned out of the shoos, was badly wrecked and unfit to make the trip. Mr. Miller and party left for Indianapolis on the 11:35 p. m. train, and occupied a stateroom. The only occupant of the car at the time of the accident, was a colored porter, who was so badly frightened that he rushed out into the midway screaming frantically.

THAT MANY TERRE HAUTE YOUTHS APPLY.

EXAMINATIONS TOMORROW

Only About Fifty Per Cent Pass the Test—Must Be Physically Sound.

The Terre Haute applicants for berths in the United States navy will be examined tomorrow at the post office building. The examination will be conducted !y a board of examiners, comprising a surgeon and his assistant, hospital steward and a lieutenant. Up- to time of going to press thirty had signed to take the examination, and before'the event takes place, there will undoubtedly be thirty-five. Those who have thus fftr applied are: Ira, Irvin, Mike J. Deady, George Hat&er,. Arthur IV Owens, T. L. Markle, Edward Thurmim, John Rubeek Harry Rickord, Birch Sackett, Jesse E. Hartsow, Reuben Anderson James Coy, and Edgar L. Reegan as landsmen for training. For firemen (second class) W. D. Barr, Charles G. Hamrick, Birch A. Costin, Wm. L. Owens baker, (second class) Claude II. Baishey ship wright (third class) Costin mess attendants, Charles Clark, Henry Glover and Eli Embury apprentices (third class) Ralph Stewart, Fred o. Emmings, Raymond Meacham Harry. Wood, George Phifer and Charles Buchanan.

All applicants accepted except the apprentices are sent to Norfolk, \a., to take ship from that place, and all with the exception of the apprentices and the landsmen for training, are hired as men already having their profession. The landsmen will be required to take a course of training at Norfolk to learn their neM' duties and the apprentices go to New Port, R. I., where they take a course in gunnery and marksmanship, The education received in this gunnery branch of the service proves invaluable to any

young

man, whether he follows

the iiea for his calling or not. Of the number enlisted there arc seven of the ages sixteen, and seventeen four are eighteen, and there arc bnt three that are. older than 25, the oldest being 28. Those below twenty-one lmve to obtain their parents' consent to the step before they will be shipped. The examination will be very strict ami it is usual that only about one half those taking it are able to pass. Any physical i.'ilm^nt will debar a man, especial attention being paid to affection of the lungs and heart. Physical deformities are. also insurmountable difficulties in getting into the service, such as the loss of a finger or a toe or poor eyesight. The sailor in charge of the office at this point says that, more than anv other one thing that keeps men out of the service is the habit of boys smoking cigarettes. Tt is responsible for ninety percent of the bad heart and bad lung refusals.
