TESTIMON Y OF ATITXESSES
Tse This Means to Prove That tho
Latest Will Is a Forgery Mrs.
Stacey Makes Damaging Admis
sions Mrs. Warner Has ot Yet
Finished With Her Witnesses
Witnesses for Other Ilelrs Will Re
quire Several Days.
The hearing In the contest of the
latest discovered will to the J. W.
Young estate is progreseslng very
slowly, and from present Indications
witnesses will be giving their testi
mony before County Judge Gilliland
for several days. Mrs. Warner has
not finished with her witnesses yet,
and probably will not before tomor
row night, and it is certain that the
witnesses for the other heirs will con
sume several days.
It is evident from the line of cross
axamination which Attorney James A.
Fee has been handing out that an ef
fort Is to be made to Impeach the
testimony of Mrs. Delia Stacey and
S. V. Knox, the two principal' wit
nesses for Mrs. Warner. Knox's name
appears as a witness to the will,
while Mrs. Delia Stacey has been
Called to prove that her father, whose
name appears as the other witness,
actuafly did place his mark on the
document. With thPir testimony Im
peached the work of proving the will
a forgery will be greatly simplified.
' , Sfrs. Stacey Makes Admissions.
Mrs. Stacey was compelled to ad
mit while on the stand that she was
twice arrested In the city of La
Grande on the charge of adultery
She also made other damaging admis
sions concerning her life in recent
years- which will be used against her.

and it was Intimated by Judge Fee
that an effort will be made to con
nect her with the train wrecking at
Meacham several years ago, In which
one man lost his life.
While Knox was on the stand he
was subjected to a series of ques
tions by Attorney Fee which, while
probably not conforming strictly to
rules of practice, served to Interest
the few spectators present. The Wes
ton attorney was asked If he had not
been accused of stealing chickens and
of fishing for chickens over a fence.
To these questions Knox entered vig
orous denials.
Louis Chrlstensen was next placed
on the stand by Mrs. Warner. He did
not pretend to know anything con
cerning the will In dispute, with the
exception that he did know the hand
writing of J. W. Young when he saw
it, and he declared the signature of
the old man on the document was
genuine.
Chrlstensen was kept on the stand
until this forenoon, when he was suc
ceeded by George W. Proebstel, who
Is still answering questions on cross
examination. He has identified ledg
ers and other business books alleged
to have been the property of Mrs.
Young, and he has also stated that
in his opinion the signature of J. W.
Young appearing on the will In ques
tion Is genuine.
