with the testimony of DIR. L. NJ. Schaefrer,
as to the blood stains on the knife, the Gov
ernment yesterday rested. The defense put
in evidence to show the previous good
character Of the defendant for peace and
good order, and the trial adjourned until
this morning
The first witness when the court recon-
vened was Patrick Naughton, the defendant.
Ills story Of the dispute in Claus room
about shutting the window and the subse-
quent scufc with Alexander did not differ
materially from Claus account. Alexander
dragged him out into the hall. When near
the head of the stairway Alexander pushed
him over on bed. Another scullle en-
sued and he knew nothing afterwards The
witness further stated that in 1876 he re-
ceived Il fracture of the skull by railroad
accident and since that time he had spells
of unconsciousncss the result of excite
ment When he was first arrested he re-
fused to 90 because he thought II was unjust,
and understood that he had as much right
in the room as any of the other men,
DIR. \. Y. =. Garnett testified to having
examined the defendant, and found that he
had suffered severe fracture of the skull.
In hypothetical case the witness thought
that person with such an injury as the ac
cused might, under excitement and anger,
have the brain SO affected as TO be an aber
ration of the mind.
Drs. ID. W. Bliss and ID. =. Wolhaupter
testified to the same effect.
The trial was still in progress when this
repOrt closed.
