John EndPrs on yesterday morning at Humbug
City. l fonnd wound made with knife about
three-fourths to one inch wide. The wound was
in the right side between the 9TH aud 9Th ribs;
it is upwards and backwards. 1t is a danger
ous wound, and think the chances against his
recovery. The wound was enlarged by the
drawing out of the knife Endsrs said that he
thought he caught the knife.
The evidence of A. J. Holland was similar to
that of Brooks and BrentOn. Several other
witnesses were sworn for the prosecution, but

presently after Enders went into the ball room
ard then came out and asked where Goldburg
was. and said that be would have revenge out
Of Levy before morning. and he then went out
into the street. Enders first supposed that it
was Thomas who had insulted him at the ball
room door. Thomas was with Enders when he
went into the street and down towards Gold
burg's store.
James McGlinsey.-1 was present at the stab
bng. and was there when Enders came up

Cross Examined i was not over three feet
from Goldburg when Endcrs made the pass at
1 A.-E l. q
that heard after Godhurg told Enders to keep

stabbed.
j. s. AHen.-I was at the ball at Carriers on
last Saturday night, bat did not see any thing

on the outside looki ng through the window.
Cross -Examined.--I saw Goldburg standing
outside of the bar room locking in at the win
dow when the disturbance was going on in d..
! saw Enders inside the bar room at the same
time.
In Chief Resumcd-I think that Goldburg
had paid to go into the hall.
Rush Skid,nmc.-I was present at the difficulty.
was standing on the steps opposite the bar
room door with Goldburg and Edwin Henry
and James McGlinsry. We had been there
about ten minutes when Enders came by me,
threw his coat off and laid it on bench. and
said 'G-d--n you Levy. you have insulted
me-" turned round at once aud saw lders
take Goldburg by the collar with his left hand
and struck at him at the same time with his
right hand Goldhurg made step back then
said "takc him away from me-" Holland then
came reund and took hold Of G.. and Brooks Of
f. and threw him off from the house. Holland
pulled G.. towards the house. Endcrs got loose
from Brooks, stepped round the crowd and pick
ed up stick and cafhA in front of g. aud struck
at him. When Holland drew G. down bv the
side Of the house | saw a knife in G.'s hand
The second blow that Enders struck hit Holland
on the hand. and Goldburg turned round and
went up the hill Br"nton started in pursuit
of G.. and halloocd 'halg him" They ran
round the upper side of the house. and Ger
man by the name of Fred ran round the lower
side Of the house when Malone came out Of the
house Enders then said Cd n you Brooks,
yOn hold me after a man has stabbed me-
Malone asked Enders if he was cnt. and he said
yes. When Enders came up to Goldburg in the
street was about two feet from the latter
Enders stepped aside about four feet in order
to get to where Godburg was standing. When
Enders picked up the stick heard him say that
he was stabbed did not see G. strike at E.
at all. but heard G. say three or four times
take him away when Z. first struck at him.
Endcrs is about five feet eleven inches high
pretty we'll built, and l think could handle
Goldburg easily.
Cross Examined.-.The first saw of the knife
was when Holland pulled Goldburg down by
the side of the house. GOdburg came out of
the bar room after | went out. End@rs struck
Goldburg when he first came up to him in front
