tnem 10 part tDem ana stOppeo him. Longmore drew his gun OF deceased ald told him to give up his pistol, which he did. Some one struck witness with his fist but did see who it was. Then heard d shot and saw that de- ceased had taken the pistol away from Spencer and struck him over the had with it. I then saw Long more on top of counter. I saw Longmore shoot at deceased. Then O'Daly and Harrison com menced shooting in the direction of deceased. Harrison and O'Daly fired at deceased while he and Spencer were scuffiing. Witness then described the positions of Harrison, ODaly and deceased, which description differs very widely from Salcido's testimony.
 A recess was here taken, after which the cross-examination of witness took place. He testified that after the first two or three shots the room was full of smoke and he was unable to see any thing. The eyidence of witness on cross-e1amination was very contradictory, and he became greatly confused.
 Manuel Salazar testified to be- ing present at the shooting, and saw Harrison and O'Daly with pistol in their hands, but did not see them shoot.
 This witness not being cross examined, the District Attorney, probably much to his annoyance, was not enabled to take hIs cus- tomary snooze.
 Illario Anduco testified to being present at the night of the shoot ing and to seeing the deceased strike Spencer over the head with a pistol. As the deceased struck the pistol was discharged. Long more fired immediately after. Saw O'Daly fire into a crowd of Mexi- cans at the door. Saw Harrison have pistol in his hand, but did not see him shoot.
 The defense nere took the wit ness for cross-examination, and the representative of the territory went to sleep. Nothing new was brought out on cross-e1amlnation, but the evidence of witness as to several of the incidents differed materially from that given by preceding witnesses.
 The territory woke up and Dr. Hoeffer of Morenci was called, who described the course of the fatal bullet. It struck about two inches below the right nipple, ranged downwards, broke the seventh rib, passed through the diaphram and into the liver.
 Bias Christano was then called and testified to seeing Longmore, Harrison and O'Daly shoot. also saw deceased hit Spencer with pistol, which was discharged at same time. At the tune Long, more, Harrison and ODaly were shooting, deceased did not shoot. Did not see deceased do any shoot ing. Do not know who killed deceased. When Longmore fired deceased fell.
 The territory went to sleep. Cross-examination of this witness brought out the customary con- tradiction of prior evidence Tn re- lation to position of participants in the shooting. Witness swore that when O'Daly and Harrison were firing they stood at the front of the room near the door and were shooting toward the rear, where deceased was standing.
 The district attorney, upon be- ing spoken to, announced that "the territory would rest" and once more sank into b,issful un- consciousness.
 Peter Spencer was the first wit ness called for the defense. His evidence dld not differ materially from the statement made by him upon his examination, which has heretofore been published. He also testified that when the first shots were fired the lights in the front part of the room went out and the room was full of smoke.
 Upon being informed that the witness was his, MT. Bolan re- gained consciousness long enough to remark that he "wanted no truck wid him." and again sank into slumber.
