to-day the defence opened its case by placing Edward
Field and Colonel Daniel Ballot the larter OF counsel
for the defence, on the stand. Their testimony was
tame, nothing new being brought out.
Colonel Balou told about drawing up Mrs.
Barnaby's WILL He thought the amount bequcathed
TO Dr. Graves was $2j 900. Two experts in hand
writing swore that, although the inscription the
whiskey bottle similar in writing to letters written
by Dr. Graves, they did not think that both writings
were by the same person. In cTo5sexamilaton, how
ever both admitted that many letters In the inscrip
ton on the bottle and those in DR.. Grayess letters
were the same DIR. Graves and J. a. Bennett
veterinary surgeons called TO prove that arsenic
of potassium sOmtmes kept in livery stables. The
point desired Ia be made that the bottle Of
whlskey had remained in the buggy In stable over
night. Of the hOstlers might have drunk the
original contents of the bottle and in order to escape
detection rehlled IL from the nearest bottle at hand
In this way they might have stumbled upon bottle OF
