PATRICK DEFENCE RESTS.
LAWYERS COUNSEL CLOSE AFTER
BEING REBUKED.

CALL RECORDER GOFFS RULINGS UNFAIR
SHORT AND MEYERS ROss-EXAMINED.
Greatly to the surprise of Recorder Goff and
Assistant District Attorney Osborne, counsel for
Albert T. Patrick suddenly rested early yester-
day afternoon, closing the defence without call
ing Patrick to the witness chair. 1t had been
supposed that Patrick would deny the story told
by Charles F. Jones. the former valet of w. NJ.
Rice that he killed Mr. Rice at Patricks insti-
CATION The sudden closing of the case for the
defence came at a time when the Recorder had
ruled against Patricks counsel in A manner
which they declared showed that the defence
had not received fair treatment Earlier in the
day the Recorder had rebuked Mr.. Moore, Of
Patrck's counsel when he objected TO questions
put by Mr. Osborne. and there was threat then
to close the defence.
All the morning session of the court was spent
by Mr.. Osborne in severe cross-examination of
David l. Short. who had testified that w. NJ.
Rice signed the disputed will Of 1900 and other
documents which the prosecution have tried to
show were forged Mr.. Moore objected strenu-
ously to some of Mr.. Osborne's questions, and
the Recorder said to the jurors:
Gentlemen, you will disregard these intern
perate outbursts of Mr. Moore"
Previously he had said to Mr.. Moore Il Will
not hear you: sit down. My patience is ex-
hausted; you will get no more indulgence pc
yond your legal right"
The last witness for the defence was Charles
French, a handwriting expert Of Boston, seven
ty-fve years old, who attacked the theories OF
the handwriting experts called by the prosecu-
ton He declared that he had made a careful
study OF the disputed and conceded sigma lures
I'm evidence, and had come TO the conclusion
that the same hand wrote all the signatures.
At Mr.. MoOre's request the witness began a
lengthy lecture on handwriting, to explain the
reasons for the conclusions he had reaChed.
The Recorder ordered the opening sentences Of
his talk stricken from the record. although Mr.
Osborne declared that It was helpful to the
prosecution, and Mr. Moore insisted that he
had a right to have the jury hear it, The Re
Corder obdurate
Very we'll then" said Mr.. Moore, the de
fence rests"
Mr.. Osborne said he was much surprised. and
Mr.. Moore retorted that ne could not help the
feelings Of the District Attorney. Mr.. Osborne
said he had no witnesses ready in rebuttal, as he
intended to call Short and Meyers. two of the
witnesses for the defence. Neither was in court,
and the prosecution called David NJ. Carvalho
to tell about the ink used on the disputed sigma
lures.
Short was called later and asked by Mr oS-
borne 10 tell If Mr.. Rice used more than one pen
or dipped into more than one bottle Of ink IN
signing the will Of 1850 The witness said ne
could not remember
