WOODLAND, Oct. 24.-Nothing new or
startling was developed in the Worden
trial to-day on behalf of the people. Tho
attorneys for the prosecution are care
fully weaving a net of circumstantial
evidence that draws tighter as the trial
progresses.
For the first time since the commence
ment of the trial Worden to-day showed
signs of uneasiness. This was especially
noticeable during the commencement OF
the examination of little Johnny Sher-
burn. Worden left his seat and walked
nervously across the northeast corner OF
the courtroom, and at times glanced IN
Quiringly at the boy on the witness stand.
AS the examination progressed he re-
sumed his seat, and picking up news
paper apparently became engrossed III It's
contents.
The trial progresses smoothly, and there
have been so far no tits between oppos-
ing counsel. In fast the attorneys for
the prosecution have interposed but one
objection since the commencement OF the
taking of evidence.
1t is claimed that several new and inn
portant witnesses will take the stand dur
1ng the last week OF the trial.
Car Repairer Philip Douglas was the
first witness called this morning. lie tes-
titled to helping clear away the wreck,
and said the rails were bent by the cars
dragging over them. He further stated
that the spike-holes were as clean as
though the spikes had been extracted
with clawbar. and that there were
marks on the inside of the rail which
were made by the bar.
Johnny Sherburn, the boy who claims
to nave gone with Worden to the scene OF
the wreck, retold the incidents OF that
eVentful drive i'll clear, stra1ghtior-
ward manner. He testified TO Wordeu
driving through the picket lines; tho
arrival at the hotel in Washington;
thence TO the cabOOse; TO seeing the
tools in the wagOn-In short, the whole
story which he told as the preliminary
exainination-relatin to- the incidents
before and after the wreck.
The boy stuck close to his story, and
rigid cross examination did not in tho
least change his testimony.
A. Gallinar at Washington was 10 have
assisted Attorney Strong. He was also
subpeDaed as a witness Tor the proSecu-
sion. n discussion ensued as TO whether
or not he should be allowed TO remain in
the room during the trial. 1t having been
ordered by the court that all witnesses
not already examined should remain out
OF the room during the trial until their
time came 10 be examined.
The Judge ordered the jury TO adjourn
until the discussion was ended CALI
mar said he was forced to be witness
against the defense, and lac would refuse
TO answer questions that were put TO him
on the stand, if he didn't think he
ought to answer them.
Attorney Cook argued that he should
be compelled To leave the room during
the trial, the same as other witnesses,
and that he would be obliged to answer
tile questions put to him on the stand,
or suffer the consequences.
Judge Grant decided that since CALI
mar had been working up the case he
should be allowed TO remain in the
courtroom, but not to participate in the
defense.
The trial goes on tomorrow.
