= Georgetown Ky October 16-If Henry Youtsey heard a word uttered in his trial today he gave not the slightest indication of 1t by any movement of the hands, the head, eyes or lips. So far as any one in the court room could tell, he did not utter word all day.
 He was the unconscious actor in another realistic scene Us afternoon when he was brought into the court room proper, lying on his bed. His eyes and mouth were tightly closed, and he looked every whit dead man, while Colonel Nelson, in a loud voice. asked him how old he was and where he lived.
 The defense presented some strong testi- mony contradictory of the prosecution wit nesses, and say they have something stronger for tomorrow, when they expect to rest their case.
 Jim Howard will go on the stand and swear Youtsey did not let him in Powers office that morning, and that he was not even in the building.
 Youtseys symptoms have been worse to- day. His temperature increased, and his pulse was greatly accelerated. The physi- elan thinks he is in no immediate danger, but sudden change for the worse may come at any time.
 Jim Howard, who will be brought to Georgetown tomorrow to testify in the Youtsey case, was visited today at Frank fort by N. H Witherspoon, Youtsey's broth er-in-law, and Attorneys Owens and Fin nell, They held a long conference with How ard.
 Youtsey's condition was reported about the same as yesterday when the trial was resumed this morning.

John Stamp CT and Mrs. Stamper that he was to get $5O0O for his testimony, nor that if he could see Colonel Campbell he could get $10, ,000 Continuing, he testified as in Powers and Towards trials, denying all the statements attributed to him by the Stampers, l.. F. Sinclair and others.

 Arthur Goebel was recalled and in an- swer to questions from Colonel Nelson said he had never testihed in any of these cases until yesterday.
 Lieutenant John Ricketts said he remem- bered seeing Youtsey some days after the shooting talking to Captain Bennett and when Youtsey walked away Che Ricketts, asked Bennett what was Youtseys name On examination he said he knew Youtsey s face as being the man he had seen and talked to before but did not know his name
 The above witnesses were introduced to lay a foundation for contradiction and when their examination was concluded Colonel Crawford made the statement to the jury for the defense. He said they would prove that it is impossible to hear in the barber shop of executive building; a person ran down the stone steps into the basement; that Youtsey appeared outside the building too soon after the shot was fired to have had anything to do with this shooting; that Youtsey stopped in the bar Der shop on his way out and talked to fore war broke out in the Philippine Islands
