 BEGIN TO-DAY
About Thirty Witnesses Will be Called Attorney House to First Move That Indictment he D.smissed-several Testify That Rico Died of Natural Causes.

New York, March 5.-The testimony
 in defense of the charge that Albert
 T. Patrick killed Millionaire William
 Marsh Rice will begin to be introduced
 when court opens tomorrow, the pros
 ecution having closed to-day. An out
 line of what Lawyer Patrick's attor-
 neys propose doing follows though It is
 not probable they have given out all of
 their intentions. The nuinber of wit nesses they expect to call is about thir
 ty. Attorney House will first formally move that the indictment be dismissed
 Should the motion be denied, he will proceed with the formal opening ad- dress for the defense, declaring that Patrick was Rice's friend, not his mur- derer. It is promised that several emi- nent doctors will testify that w. M. Rice died Of natural causes; that he was dead before Jones put the chloro form soaked sponge in a cone over his face They will declare that if a fatal dose of chloroform produced the conges- tion found in Rice's lungs. 1t would have caused equal congestion in the brain, liver and kidneys and through out the venous system. In Rices case the lungs alone were congested. They will declare that a sudden inhalation of chloroform as Jones says he caused Rice to take must have awakened him no matter how soundy he slept.
 The defense also promises to bring witnesses who heard Rice say he was tired of Texas and Texas people and wanted nothing more to do with them; that Houston officials were always rais- ing his taxes, that the people of Texas would get very little more from him for the w. M Rice Institute and that he was going to make new will in accord ance with this feelng, The defense al- so promises to produce q witness who saw W. M. Rice sign the Swenson and Fifth Avenue Trust company checks and send them to Patrick Dr. Walker Curry, who attended Rice, is to testify that he died of natural causes and sev- nral moraue attendants are to sny that DfS. Donlin and Williams, who made he autopsy. did not know that Rice lied of anything but old age.

 in that shaft, which was at the first floor landing.
