Torn Murray, 22-ycar-old con vict on trial for Hie murder ot Guard John Sweeney in the prisuu break of August 12, admitted ou tho stand this morning thai ho fired a shot from a 2-20 revolver, from the ouk tree in the front yard of the prison at Guard Sweeney In tower No. 1, the shot which the state contends killed the guard. Murray atd that he fired tho shot at Sweeney after he had yelled to tho Kuard to come down out of tho tower, or he would smoke hi in out." Murray First Witness Murray was the first witness for Iho defense, and his story of the escape and flight varied little from the accounts tnld previously by witnesses for the state, except, that he claimed that tho first shots were fired by the guards on tower No. 1 Into the turnkey's office, where he and Orepjon .lonos were rifling the arsenals. The convict spoke In an even tone of voice that could bo heard dis tinctly In all parts of tho court room. He used very good English and showed no evidences of excite ment. Througho'itt the morning he kept one elbow renting on the rail of the witness stond and rested bis chin on his hand. That ho was slightly nervous was shown by the manner in whlrh he fingered his lips and chin, anil hit first his upper and then his lower lip. I)efer.e Scores Thrice Tho defense scored heavily dur ing tho morning when, over tho objection of the prosecution, llio court ruled in two or three in stances that evidence tending to support the plea of the defense that Murray acted in fear of bis life In escaping, and that his men tal condition at the time must bo cimsldered as a mitigating cir cumstance, wns pertinent and ad missible. The rulings opened up tiie way for the defense to Intro duce evidence to' substantiate its claim that treatment ot prisoners at the prison was such as to jus tify Murray In his belief that to remain thero was to leave his lifo In Jeopardy, that conditions were such ns to encourage and excuse on attempted break, and that Murray was justified in shooting If necessary to insure his escape, from persecution that threatened frnnllnui'd on Pago l-'lve) TO BE DISCUSSED The budget that will bo required by the city for the year 1026 will bo diriined at A meeting of tho ways and means committee of tbo city council tonight.
