DESCRIBES THE KILLING
William Alexander Takes the
Stand in His Own Behalf.
The Alleged Slayer of Matthew Snow
Recites the story of the Fight in
Marble Hall Alley - Attorneys to
Make Their Arguments This Morn
Ing - May Go to the Jury Today.

The testimony in the case Of william VI.
Alexander was concluded yesterday af-
ternoon, and The arguments to the Jury
will be commenced this morning upon the
| converting of the court. The feature of
| the days proceedings was the testimony
of the defendant, who went on the wit
ness stand in his own behalf.
His story of the circumstances connect
ed with his fight with Snow, which re-
suited in the death of the latter, was
practically the same as that told by him
at his former trial.
In substance Alexander testified that on
the night of the tragedy, when he went
into Marble Hall Alley, he found Snow
sitting on a stone at the intersection of
that thoroughfare with a blind alley.
When he approached Snow the witness
said he understood the former to say
something to him relative to some women
with whom Alexander had been out riding
that day. When he asked what Snow said,
the latter caught him and bit him on the
leg.
Believing that Snow intended to do him
great bodily harm, he struck Snow sew
eral times in the face with his fist. He de-
MED that he struck Snow with brass
knuckles or any other weapon.
When he struck Snow the defendant said
they were separated by a man named Till
man. In this act Snow was thrown down
and fell on his face. but Immediately rose
and went toward his stable He was aft
erward taken to the hospital where he
died before morning.
The defendants mother and father were
also called to testify to contradict the evil
dence of some of the witnesses for the
prosecution relative to statements made
by them Immediately after the trouble be-
tween Snow and the defendant.
Several physicians who were called 10
testify on behalf of the defendant stated
that when they examined Alexander the
day after the tragedy they found a bite
wound on his left thigh.
In rebuttal all the witnesses who
claimed to have been present and saw
Alexander assault Snow ~ere recalled and
testified that Snow did not bite Alexander
They were in such positions, they said. as
to enable them to see him do the act in
case IL had been committed.
At the conclusion of the testimony coun-
sci on either side submitted to the court
requests for instructions to the jury on
matters of law relative to the case. The
opening argument for the Government will
be made this morning by Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Thomas C. Taylor, VINO will
be followed by Albert Sillers and John L.
Laskey, in the order named for the de-
fence. The closing argument for the pros
ecution will be made by District Attorney
Anderson. 1t is expected that Justice Ga
baugh will finish his charge to the jury
about y. m.
