SWEARING BOTH WAYS.
A Witness Who Contradtcts His Ante
Mortem Statement,


Mortem Statement,
John Farrell was acquitted in the Grim.
inal court yesterday, on the charge OF as
sault upon Frank Thompson In September
last. From the evidence offered 1t appears
that on the day In question party OF
young men were In q store on POneroy
street, near Seventh. Some of them had
been drinking, and q quarrel ensued. In
the melee the defendant, who Is a para.
lyzed mute, was struck on the head with a
cleaver in the hands OF party named How
lett.
This stopped the trouble, and the injured
man was taken into the adjoining room to
have his wound dressed. Suddenly he
jerked out his revolver as II to shoot some
one. An attempt was made to take the re-
volver from him when 1t went off and the
bullet struck Thompson in the breast
caueing dangerous wound. Believing
that Thompson would die, his post mortem
testimony was take. and ha completely ex-
onerated Farrell OF an attempt to take his
life. But afterwards, on recovering, he
appeared before the grand jury and on his
testimony the indictment was found. When
the defense yesterday introduced the ante.
mortem testimony, Assistant District At
torney Lipscomb stated to the court that
he was unaware Of such testimony having
been taken, and therefore he could not ask
the jury to convict. They were then in
structed to bring in verdict of acquittal.
