ttrck on the evening OF July
+" 81, Was begun in the county court
= ) o'clock yesterday afternoon.
Messrs. NJ. 7. Hughes and Francis eau
sey. of this city, and Judge Medley. of
Norfolk appeared for the accused. The
commonwealth was represented by
MesSrs. ,Boyllin and Lett, of Newport
News.
Colonel Boykin made the opening
statement for the commonwealth and
Mr.. Causey followed for the prisoner.
John Patrick, the man whom Edwards
is charged With shooting, was then in
trodu ced. He related the story of the
shooting just as he related it last fall,
inci udng the account of his alteration
with Edwards in Mr. Davis store,
known as The Marsh Market. on the
Tuesday evening preceding the assault
on Newport News avenue. sl7sssss he

Smith. They all alighted at Newport

direction. He and 'Darden We're walk
ing together. At Newport News avenue
they turned off the car line and had
proceeded up that avenue a few feet
when the witness was seized arond the

then drew a pistol and advanced to
within short distance of the witness
and fired, the bali entering the EFT side
nf the breast. A second or two later
Edwards fired again, but without eff
feet. Patrick was closely cross-exam-
med by Julge Medley. He was followed
on the stand by George Phillips, whose
ties timony was the same as given in the
former trial.
The case will probably consume the
time of the court today and tomorrow.

WISE Yos5NG CONTEST.
Case Taken Up BY the elections C


The Young-Wise contest, postponed
from Saturday on account of the con-
slderation of Tennessee case by the
Elections Committee. was taken up in
Washington yesterday.

the warm congressional fight
in this district, and especially in this
city, at the last election. as interested in
tina Outcome OF the contest being made
by DR.. II. Wise tRepublica). of
williamsburg TO GUST Congressman
William a. Young OemocraD, of Nor
folk.
Part of the fraud chaFgei by DR..
Wise in his brief is alleged 20 havs &C
Cured in the Second Ward of this city
Attorney r. N. Lett represented Mr..
Young in this city and Attorney 4. c.
Psachy looked after DR.. Wlse's interests
here. On January %, last counsel com
menced to teke testimony. which was
since used to make up the briefs of the
contestant and conttstee.
John S. Wise and James d. Brady,
counsel for Dr. Wise, state in their brief
that the evidence IN the case clearly
esta bltshes "a conspiracy to carry the
Second Congressional District of Vfr-
GINA for contestee, riga ri4ess of what
ever vote might be cast for his oppo-
nent."
This conspiracy. counsel alleges, was
made possible by a series OF acts Of
virginia, the first OF which pla. .li the
selection of registrars, judges and
clerks and the electoral machinery in
the hands of partizan electoral boards
in each county and city Of the State
These electoral boards. according to the
document. consist entirely of partiZan
Democrats, chosen by partizan Leg
lSlature, and no other party has any
representation upon them. 1t is, charg-
ed that they HI vacancies in their own
bodies.
Counsel complain at length of the va
rlous election laws of the State, and
coming down to details assert that at
elghty-1isht precincts of the district
exclusive Of Norfolk county, 80 votes
We're dpositei in the ballot boxes and
that but 25,4S3 We're returned for Com

lese, the conspiracy. The whole returns
81 the counties Of Southampton and
York, they asseTt, should be rejected as
false and fraudulent. and that fourteen
other precincts should be thrown out,
where contestee had 1877 votes.
counsel proceed To examine the cleo
ton figures in detail, and conclude their
figures in detail and conclude their fig
ures by electfng Wise by 1913 majority.
rms seemingly marvellous conclusion Is
reached in the following summary:
