The witness said he hastened to tha front of the store and arrived Just in time to see wortman sinking o the floor of MarkcU's siore In his eath struggle. Defrsxse Adsaataae. The oefense will contend that th noie whl.-h Mr. Iiorres heard was caused kr Wortman. who welahed ahout i 1 i pounds, throwinc Hick-., much smaller man. against t'ie build ing. This would tend lo uphold Hick s contention of self defense, on the lee timony of the witness considered aa a whole, however, another construction, favorable to the state, may be placed The furniture man said that he wag in front of his place of business watch ing furniture unloaded from a van shortly before the shooting occurred and that he saw lilrks standing; on the sidewalk about IS or 20 fret from him, possibly waiting for a Brooklyn car to convey him to his home, as It Hicks' habits to catch his car at that point. Hicks remained standing In that position for rlh,Jr r OT seven irlnutes. Mr. Iwrre testified, and then started walking slowly toward the wit. neas. Hicks was within about flva feet of him and the latter was about lo address Hicks when a woman, a Mrs. Plngenheltner. came down the street from the direction of Grand av enue and said she wished to pay Mr. Iorres some money on account, latertal A beat Tare Mlaates. The witness entered tha store with Mrs. Flnsenhelmer and walked slowly with her to the office, a distance of about 90 feet. He had provided her lth a seat and was In the act of slt tmc down himself when he heard the commotion. He thought the Interval hus h be three minutes, but his an swers to questions Indicated that the r rtHl wtrlch elarsed from the time he entered tha store until the shot wat f:red was probably much less. From this the state's attorneys argue that tr-ere was not much time for the at tack upon flicks, which the defendant's sttornevs allege occurred, and that Hicks siiot with small provocation and with little reason to believe that his life was In danger. Ir. W. tV. Hruce. the physician alied Immediately after the shooting and who performed the autopsy on the JaJ man. said that the bullet entered the left side and tore Its way through the boily about an Inch In front of U-e spinal column and Imbedded Itself within an Inch and a half of the sur face of the right side of Wortman's body. straggle la Uedaeed. "From this testimony the defense argues that the revolver was pressed close against the victim aa otherwise tf.e bullet would have come out on the other side. The deduction Is thus drawn that the two men were strug gling when the shot was fired. This would be directly at variance with statements made by Special Prose. utor taiis In addressing the Jury la advance of the taking of testimony. Mr. iMtvis contended that Wortman was backing away from lllcks with JUs l:ajid oier hla face when the bullet was discharged and that Hicks fired with his arm extended. Experts will be called to testify as to how far the bullet would penetrate under varying t Ircumstances. F.fforts of Attorney Malarkey to have Jr. tlrtice give expert testimony met with objection from the attorneys for tha state, who pointed out that the physician was their witness, and the state would be pound by his answers. Thev contended that he was not com petent to ouallfy as an expert on gun shot wounds. Judge Gatens sustained three oblectlona to questions asked bv Mr. Malarkey and told lilin that ) would have lo call the doctor as h:s own witness and take the responsi bility for his answers If he wl.hrd the witness to give expert testimony, tessarwa Held oeelaaMe. Mr. Malarkey essayed a fourth ques tion, which Mr. Paris declared railed fr the opinion of an expert and he described the action as "one of Mr. Malarkey's little tricks. Ju.lee (Sa lens Instructed the Jury to disregard the remark of Mr. Pavla and urged the attorneys not to Indulge tn personal ities. Mr. Malarkev insisted on hav ing his objection to hi" antagonist's remark noted In the record, saying that. ly Mr. Pavi might not tn Itself be piejudiclal to the defendant, still, a number of them might warrant a high er court In holding that prejudice had hern Injected Into the trial of the rase. This drew a reply from Mr. Davis. In which there was another remark re f.olink on Mr. Malarkey. and the lat ter again noted Ills objection In the record. Alter conslderahle bickering, the at torney for the defense finally secured a ruling of the court allowing Dr. Bruce to say that a wound such as was dis covered on Wortman body rould not have been caused by Hick discharging- the revolver with his arm extended. Aaswer Held I alsaaartaat. Attorneys for the stale affect to at tach but little Importance to this evi dence, saying that Hicks and Wort man were moving about rapidly and tliat only the testimony of eye wit nesses ran establish what their posi tions were with respect to each other when the fatal bullet left the revolver. The only other witness was Leo Goetsch. a deputy coroner, who told of cont eying the. body of Wortman to the morgue. The effects found tn the dead man's pockets were a jackknlfe. which waa In a left side rear trousers pocket, a handkerchief and a memorandum book, the witness said. The memoran book, which, according tn C.ntsi-h. (i.Dliin'd addresses and entries of va- rlotts kinds, was not produced In court, and Mr. Malarkey s questions on cross examination Indicated that the defense might be much interested In Its produc tion and contents. The witness said be did not know what had become of it. ANTI-SUFFRAGISTS MEET Body Opposing Votes for Women Plans Statewide Opposition.
