AMERICAN BRIDE AND FOREIGN NOBLEMAN "WHO ARE MARRIED HUSBAND AND WIFE NAUGURAL SPEECH i V PROSECUTION ENDS CASE I'allnrc to Kind Blood Cells on Pocket Knife Is -Point for De fense Experiment Made on Body of Bead Xegro. AIKEN. S. C Feb. 5. Frederick O. Beach will take the stand In his own ilefense when his trial on the charge of assaulting his wife is resumed here tomorrow. This was the plan outlined by the defense at the close of court to day. It also Is proposed to have Mrs. Beach follow the accused New Yorker as a witness. Since the assault upon her was committed In the yard of the Beach Winter home here on the night of February It last, the Btory told by Beach and his wife never has varied. Both have .maintained that Mrs. Beach was attacked by an unknown negro, when she left the bouse to give her dors an airing Bloody Knife Saved for Climax. The state rested its case, which con sisted almost entirely of an attack on the plausibility of Beach's story, late today. The introduction of Beach's y Jeweled pocket knife, upon which one of the state's witnesses claims to have found traces, of blood corpuscles, was withheld by the prosecution until the last. It had been anticipated by the defense, which was prepared to meet expert testimony with expert testi mony, even to the extent of presenting a witness who had examined the knife and had failed, as he swore, to find any blood cells. Four of the defense's witnesses were examined this after noon and the testimony of all of them concerned the knife. Dr. T. Hastings Wj-man, Jr., testi fied at the morning session that he had made a microscopic examination of the knife at the request of Mayor Gates and had found traces of blood. Later, he said, he took the knife to Augusta and submitted it to Br. C. D. Part ridge, professor of microscopies, of the University of Georgia, who, he said, refused to express an opinion as to presence of blood. Analyst's Opinion Obtained. Then he went to Columbia. S. C, and obtained a written opinion there from Boykin MIms, an analyst, that there was blood on the knife. When the prosecutor announced at the opening of the afternoon session that the state had presented Its case the defence offered Dr. Partridge as a t itness. Dr. Partridge testified that he I. ad examined the knife and had In formed Mr. Wyman that there was no bicod there, lie was making a good witness for the defense until Prosecu tor Gunter began cross-evamlning him. He seemed to become confused and answered questions only after long hesitation. "Didn't you refuse to put the result of your examination down In writing?" demanded the prosecutor. The witness did not answer. "Didn't you?" Finally ho said he did not wish to make a written report. Knife Bladen Beeome Issue. "You were afraid it would fall In the hands of the state, were you not?" "No. I was unbiased at that time." "But you have become biased since then, haven't you?" "No." Then the prosecutor questioned him about his direct testimony that the knite had no broken blades when he examined it. "Will you swear that the knife had two blades?" "No. I do not think I can swear to it." "But you did Just now," prodded the prosecutor. Witness remained silent for a long time. "I think it's safer to leave out the other blade," he then said. Expert testimony was given for the defense by Dr. T. F. Oertell, of Au gusta, formerly professor of pathology and microscopy at the University of Georgia. Experiment Made on Body. Anticipating that the state might contend that one blade of the knife had been broken off by a blow at Mrs. Beach's throat, the defense asked the witness If. In his opinion, it could have been broken In this manner. Dr. Oertell said he made an experi ment on the body of a negro with a similar knife, Inflicting such a wound as had been made in Mrs. Beach's neck without damage to. the knife. "So you took' a dead negro and tried to break off the knife in his neck?" I did." - Mr. Gunter then wanted to - know if It would not be possible for a blade to be snapped off if the blow was not "clean." "It might, but the wound would be a Jagged one, replied the witness. The Beach family physician. Dr. C. D. Hall, testified that after he was called to the Beach home by telephone lie found Mrs. Beach suffering from a three-Inch wound In her throat, a su perficial wound in the left breast and an abrasion on the left ear. Couple's Demeanor'Affectlonate. "Was the attitude of Mr. and Mrs. Beach toward each other one of affec tion?" "Yes, Mr. Beach held her hand all the time I was dressing her wounds." Dr. Hall said he saw Mrs. Beach be fore she was carried upstairs, and that she told him then she had been at tacked by a negro. The defense's last witness of the day Dr. B. F. Wyman. who expressed the opinion that a blow at the throat with the Beach penknife could not have broken the blade, whether delivered from front or back, admitted under cross-examination that If the blade struck on the side It might snap off.
