BEATTIE WILL BE PUT ON - STANDI MONDAY v., Jury Will Hear Story of Beard . ed Highwayman From Lips of Richmond Youth on Trial for Murder of His Wife. (Br tb International Npt- frrlca ) Chesterfield Courfhoiisc, Va.. Sept. 5. One way alone it became apparent today remains to eave young Henry Clny Bcattie Jr. from the electric chair. That is blfi own testimony. Perhaps (though it looks extremely doubtful) ho may convince at least one Juror that a bearded highwayman, as he has contendr-d nil along, killed his wire while ehooting at him when both were . in Ms automohlle. Then he may get disagreement of the Jury. This evening; after a lot of character witnesses had been summoned to tell how happily the rich young man .and Ms bride lived together and after other Witnesses had told how perhaps it was not JJeattie who waa observed near the scene of the crime, but another man, th difense, concluded its evidence ex v c: elf. " Stake All on One Theory. . '' Day after day it has been announced that next day he waa to take the stand and make a gamble for his Jlfe. Never has there been any certainty of this. Now HA absolutely assured that with 5 the beginning of Monday's session, al thouga it is a legal holiday, the boy ' ' really will stake everything on the final throw. ' " Today was devoted chiefly to "stall . Ing" by hia lawyers, delaying the case in every possible manner so that Henry mlsht get the advantage or a Sunday before the fipal ordeal. They won this .: . little point, but only at the cost of giv . Ing the state a full day in which to prepare cross examination of the de ; ' fendant Goes on Stand Monday. ' The young son of the rich department tore owner will go An the stand at 10 ' o'clock Monday. Hia direct examina tion will last about two hours. Then Ma cross examination will consume at least four hours and may go well Into the night for the court has decided to hold night sessions hereafter in order to wind up " the case. General opinion goes but two ways if Seattle can repeat his story about a ' ' bearded highwayman attacking him -and cling to It, ha may gain an acquittal at ' the hands of the Jury. If he cannot and . , makes the least little break under the , .cross fire of the state's attorney, Louis .' W. Edenberg, he will be sent swiftly to ' his death. There are no half way mea sures in this state. The best posted say a Jury disagreement Is extremely v Improbable. V Chum Zs Poor Witness. i ' The adherents of the defense were by ' no means encouraged by the day's pro ceedlngs. They were more or less ln v lerestlng. But the helpfulness of any thing that developed was small. Beat- tie's personal chum, Billy Sampson, was called to help wra our or nis atmcuity but succeeded only in putting him in ,. deeper. .... Charles Kastelburg. a wealthy resi ' denty of Richmond, was summoned, , mucU against his will, to show that he probably was the nan who was seen with a halted motor car and a female ... companion on the Midlothian turnpike on the night of the murder. But ' "neither witness seemed to sway the : ' jurors, very much one Way or another. . t TJor did a lot of testimony givers who appeared on the stand to say Beattie - and Lis wife lived happily together or ' . else that Paul Beattie the cousin who swore Henry .had confessed to him was a liar. Monday will be the big. day of the trial, undoubtedly, when the wealthy h boy tries to save himself. He will probably occupy the stand all day Mon- day and the state on Tuesday will pre sent the Binford girl in rebuttal, as its : last star witness.

Hawthorne Race Track, 111., Sept. 2. County Sheriff Zlmmer, Chief Deputy Peters and 1J0 deputies came to the Hawthorne track this afternoon to watch for gamblers. Arrangements had been made for the speedy conveyance of prisoners to Oak Fark and hearing in the Justice courts of that place. Jus tices Kenndall and McKee had "consent ed to sit in the afternoon to hear such cases as might be taken .before them. Several automobiles were ordered to be waiting at the track for the con veyance of the prisoners to Oak Park. Sheriff Zimmer said that he was not going to allow any gambling at any of the three days' races if a large posse of deputies could prevent It. Fifty bP3kmakers with their clerks, who had made preparations to receive money from the race track patrons. folded their effects and disappeared when the deputies appeared.

Maybe they think the truth would be too favorable to Henry na that is the reason they disappoint those crowds out at Chesterfield Court House who are waiting to see me on the stand. But I have told the truth from the beginning and 111 tell it to the end. I don t believe Henry Beattie Is guilty of murder; ho was too kind hearted and gentle. Why, he even used to scold me for whipping my little dog. Paul Beattie is lying, 1 know it, be cause he lied about the message Harry gave him for me. .
