MAY NOT TELL HIS OWN
STORY.
WAS SHOT FROM BEHIND
Keller Gives Testimony as to Man
ner in Which Wounds
Were inflicted.

New York, June 1S-The second
day OF the trial at Jersey City Of
Thomas G. Barker for the shooting Of
Rev. John Keller at Arlington, was
full OF objections by counsel and
clear-cut, cold and sharp rulings by
the presiding judge.
Both principals went on the stand
during the day. The story Of Barker
may not be told on the witness stand.
The court held that Barker could not
testify to his own state of mind on
the morning Of the shooting. The
object of the defense for the moment,
for which Barker was called. was to
introduce an alleged conversation
which 1t is said led up to the shoot
ing, but at every step his counsel
met defeat. Time and time again he
sought to introduce some evidence
telling what took place before the
shooting, but in every case the prose-
cution objected. Then they went
straight at the questioning and sought
to bring in the whole story boldly and
plainly, but failed. Barker was with
drawn from the stand without testl-
flying to anything material.
Following this defeat came another.
when DR.. Evans Of Morton Plains
asylum vas practically -debarred
from t~estifying because of the lack
of foundation and had to be with
drawn.
The court rose as Don as DR..
Evans was withdrawn.
The story of Mrs. Barker may not
be told now, unless counsel finds
some way which has not yet suggest
ed itself to introduce 1t. The ruling
Of the court in every instance was
pronounced quickly and the Jersey
lawyers were generally of the opinion
that the exceptions Mr.. Van Wrinkle
filed were not such as would upset
the result il there was a conviction.
The prosecution tried to introduce
the eye taken from Mr.. Keller's head.
It was presented in a bottle Of alcohol
but was barred out as gruesome and
having no bearing on the case.
DIR. S~teinser, one of the doctors
who attended Mr.. Keller, told Of the
wounds and gave expert testimony
that Mr.. Keller was shot from be-
hind.
MI. VanWinkle tried to get the
doctor to admit that possibly Keller
and Barker met face to face, but the
doctor stuck to his statement that the
shot which was the most serious was
fired from behind.
Mi. Keller was the last witness for
the state. He showed the jury his
SCARED face and blind and injured
eyes. He insisted in q mild way un.
der cross-examination that the shot
which entered his head was fired
from behind.
He said he had spoken to no one
and had had no quarrel.
