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.
