Defendants Testimony.

Upon reassembling at 1:15 o'clock this
afternoon, Mr.. Baker made a short address
to the jury, in which he said he would
claim that his client not responsible
for the sale of the poison, as asserted in
the information.
The defendant, William l.. Smith, was
then called to the stand. He knew nothing,
he said, of the sale of the carbolic acid to
Miss Bruseke. He was not a registered
pharmacist, but is studying as a pharma-
cist at Howard University. He depended,
he said, upon his clerk, Murray, for the
putting UP of drugs and prescriptions. and
his instructions to him were to be careful
and always obey the law. He did not
know, he said, that the law required the
word poison to be written on the wrapper
of a bottle which contained carbolic acid.
The attorney for the defense offered a
number of prayers, the effect Of which, if
granted, 1t was said, would result in
Smiths being acquitted. Mr.. Mullowny OBJ
jected, and after Mr.. Baker made an argu-
ment to support his contention Mr. Null
lowry replied.
Verdict of Guilty.
At 2:4O the jury returned verdict of
guilty. Mr.. Baker at once gave notice OF
his intention to ask for new trial and to
file a motion in arrest of judgment. The
accused was released on $50 collateral to
await further proceedings.
