THE ROSS TRIAL.
Ills Counsel illustrates the Course OF the
Pistol Bail with a Human skull

II~fDi fill W iin iihiuhh Nf"ii'
GLOUCESTER G. H., eia Vast Point
April This was the third day Of the
Ross trial. The day was tsken up in
examining c. r. Bridges, Mrs. Francis
Robinson and Dr. r. A. Taliaierro
The evidence was the same as given at
the preliminary examination, except that
Francis Robinson lifted the bed cover
ing and saw that Hughes feet were
crossed.
Or. Taliaferro had a human skull
which be used in describing the wound
and the force of the bail The bullet
entered the right side of the head, on a
line from the corner of the eye to the
opening Of the ear, about one and
a-half inches from the eye II inn
pinged upon the inner side of the
skull. back Of the left ear and above bis
ear. thence it ieil 10 the base oi the
brain. where 10 was found The pistol
was held near enough TO Hughes bead
to cause the ball to greatly aai'en, but
not close enough to leave powder marks
on his face. Death must have been in-
stantaneous.
The defense tried to account for the
eye being closed, by asking many ques
tions about instantaneous closing Of The
eyes in the case of explosion near them.
Prosecution sought t. identify the
pistol with which the deed was done,
but az II necessary witness had not been
summoned, this was abandoned
TO the surprise of the lookers-on,
when Dr. Taliaferro left the stand Mr.
G. d Jones said the Commonwealth
rests her case. The defense announced
that in the morning motion would be
made TO compel the prosecution to
examine the Witnesses who bad
testified at the coroneTs inquest on the
preliminary examination, and who had
been summoned by the prosecution.
These witnesses are Miss Maggie
Thompson and Fred Smith. The de-
fense has fought for every inch OF ground
since the case opened Numerous bills
Of exceptions have been fled. The
evidence to be produced by the defense
is awaited with impaiience. The argu-
ment will probably not be done this
week
