Howard seemed to be the soberest Of the
lot He was able to get a good deal Of
Information from him about the row.
Mr. Howard was the next witness for
the defense, He stated that he was upon
the scene. having gone with a crowd OF
friends, and they were at Madame Con-
nolly's place There were two crowds. He
was not with the Dyer crowd He knew
Dyer slightly. having met him once be-
fore. He could swear positively that Dyer
did not strike the blow that feled Titcomb.
He did not know who did it. 1t was a
short stout fellow. When cross-question-
ed he stated that he could not swear pos
lively that it was Brown who did the
killing. He could only say that it was a
stout, short fellow, but to the best of his
knowledge and belief it was Brown.
Mr.. Morgan, for the defense, declared that
IL had not been the purpose of the coun-
sci for the defense to bring this point out
as 1t was irrelevant TO the case. but since
the solicitor general had in his cross-ques-
tioning, forced the witness to say some
thing connecting Browns name with the
crime, he would ask the witness to make
himself clear. The witness then stated
that TO the best OF mis- knowledge and belief
Brown was the man who struck the blow.
Michael Murphy was the next witness
Tor the defense. He was IN the "scrap &"
got in the Connolly house the other crowd
would, and this precipitated the difficulty.
lie could swear that he didn't strike Tit
comb, although he was in the fight and
had the misfortune to have his arm broken
lie heard Dyer "holler for hep during
the scrapping. There was large crowd
around and it was impossible to recognize
everybody, so confused was the scene He
stated that the entire party had sticks.
After the fight he and four others went to
a fast house." and had something to
drink He was suffering considerably
from his broken arm.
j. j. Cooney went to the stand next He
stated that he was with Dyer the night
OF the killing having gone TO his house
10 get him. Dyer was at home and they
decided TO go out celebrating He ana
Brown and Dyer and Murphy all had
sticks when they left Dyers house. He did
not see the striking OF Titcomb at all dur
ing the row.
Nellie Madison, one of the demimonde
propretresses of the front. was thenext
witness for the defense She keeDs a
place near Madame ConnolIv's. and went
out on her stoop in time to see the ending
OF the nght. II was so dark she could not
distinguish anybody. There were twelve
or fifteen present and all were lighting
She saw one man fall He fell with a dull
heavy thud, and nobobdy hit him after
ne uau ldlleh. Sne saw MIN lying there
until the first policeman came. Every.
body had. by that time, scampered away.
When cross questioned the witness
said she saw nobody strike a blow. The
mans head hitting against the sidewalk
pavement when he fell made a loud re-
sounding blow, but she had not been
able to hear the blow that felled him.
She could not distinguish the fighters
from the spectators.
