SELF-DEFENSE HIS PLEA
James Kelly Tells How He
Killed Joseph E. Quinn
and Why.
Claims the Dead Man Would Have
Slain Him if He Could Have
Done So.

The prosecution having closed its case
evidence for the defense was yesterday in
troduced at the trial of James Kelly for
the murder of Soldier Joseph E. Quinn.
Kelly himself was upon the stand and
swore that he did not know he had killed
Quinn until he had been taken to the
guardhouse some time after the occur
renee. He also claimed that he struck in
self-defense, and believed that in doing
SO he was using a last effort to save his
life.
''If hadn't used the razor would now
likely be where Quinn is,s said Kelly, in
answer to question put by Prosecuting
Attorney H1nkle.
The prisoner, whose looks are much i'm
proved since he donned his uniform, was
being cross-examine6 as to the particulars
of the fatal fight. He told how Quinn had
threatened 10 whip him and how, knife in
hand, he danced about him, seeking an
opportunity 10 attack him. Kelly said he
took his razor from his pocket and opened
1t, ready for action in case he should be
attacked. but that he had no idea of using
1t II Quinn forbore his expressed inten-
ton.
A number OF Kelly's comrades testified
as to his good character, his quietness and
general inoffensiveness, while Quinn was
pictured the post bully, man always
ready for fight and physically the
superior OF any other man IN the COM
mand. One of them swore that the open
pocket-knife found on the parade ground
after the affray was the property of Quinn
and that he recognized it from the fact
that the dead man was wont to look upon
it as his mascot, he having habit of plac-
ing it upon the table before him whenever
he was gambling.
The attorneys for the defense are iubi-
lant over the fact that so far no testimo ony
has been introduced which shows that
their client had any malice against Quinn.
The trial will be continued to-day.

S. G. Murphy sued the bank for 30 per
cent of the deposit of ]. NJ. Mcdonald, one
of the stockholders OF the institution, who
transferred his claim to Murphy. The de-
tense was set up by the bank that accord

under the law of 1862 Mcdonald as stock
holder could not recover. His Honor,
however. sustained a demurrer TO the an

he thinks that it would be an injustice to

News reached number of local lum ber-

Der of Oregon and Washington lumber.
dealers at an early date TO break the trust
or combine said to control the local mar
ket.
"For the purpose of reaching this OBJ
iect," said Pembroke Anson of Salem, Or,
yesterday, IAN effort has been set on foot
to corral enough local dealers here to buy
few million feet of lumber each year.
"Large mills are running at loss at
Corvallis and other towns IN Oregon
simply because their owners cannot get
into the com bination and they are about
tired of the close corporation plans that
virtually give the entire business into
the hands of few people. They have,
therefore, decided to try to break the
power of the trust, if possible, either by
starting large lumber-yards here or by OBJ
tanning contracts with carpenters or con-
tractors to take cargoes as they may
arrive at this port. This would
cause great deal of excitement
on steamer days. The plan would be 10
organize corps of antitrust lumbermen,
who would always be ready to take a
given quantity on the arrival of the YES
sells, and without delay. The chief OBJ
lection to having lumber come to deal
ers in this way is that those who deal
outside of the trust are tabooed and
cannot buy lum Der of the regular dealers.
Those trying to break the trust are seeking
to overcome this difficulty by arranging to
have all kinds of lumber on the ships that
arc free from the trust"
News of the intended scheme to break
the trust will no doubt create stir among
builders and contractors, who have long
been seeking some method of relief. 1t is
not believed, however, that any ordinary
com bination can greatly modify existing
rates, for lum ber-dea complain that
rates are already at bedrock.

Even Senator Stephen M. White Ap.

COULD NOT STEM THE CURRENT

Thoughtful Democrats of California are
beginning 10 realize the extent of the
bunko game played on their party by
in consequence Democratic cheeks flush
with shame whenever the subject is
broached in their presence.
The leaders of the Democratic party are
aware of the shameful predicament oi
their organization, brought about by the
fusion chickering's that have taken place in
regard to members of the Legislature, and
while they are fully alive to the degrade
tion of the "bargain and sale" that has
besmirched the fair fame of their party,
few who hold responsible positions in the
party are willing to express their inner
thoughts on the situation.
As matter of fact the southern part oi
the State, all that section south OF Teha-
chapi, over which Senator Stephen M.
White is supposed to keep watch and
ward for the Democrats, has been de-
livered, body and soul, to the Gator fac
tion of the Populist party.
In San Diego County the Democrats
conceded both Assembly nominations to
the Gator Populists, and in San Bernardino
and Orange, in each of which one Assem-
Oily man II W ue CuoStu, d Slmliar plan was
followed.
Riverside County kicked out of the
traces to a certain extent and nominated a
Nom Partisan. Nobody pretended to
gauge his probable action on the Sena-
torial question. He may resolve to sup
port what he considers the best man and
vote for himself.
In the joint Senatorial district OF
Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside
counties it had been agreed that the DEM
ocrats should have the nomination, and
they intended to put up an anti-corpora-
ton Democrat who would not under any
circumstances vote for Gator; but the rail-
road influence, which dominates San
Bernardino County Democratic politics.
came in and broke down the arrange
ment, so Gator Populist was nominated.
There is q touch of grim humor in the
way things are manipulated by Gator and
his adherents in Los Angeles County,
where the Populists allowed the Demo-
Gratis to nominate the State Senator in
Difference to United States Senator White,
whereas it is positively known that under
no circumstances could any one except a
Republican be elected in that district.
The Populists also permitted the Demo-
Gratis TO take three Assembly nominations
