Indictment for Murder.-Appeal from the
 Circuit Court of Escambia.
 L Homicide; when self-defense can not be invoked.-Where, on a trial under an indictment for murder. the evidence shows that the defendant shot the de- ceased in the back while the latter was in the act of running from him, there is shown to exist no necessary reafor appa- rent cause which justified the killing, and. therefore the defendant in such a case cannot set up self-defense.
 2. Homicide; self-defense; admissibility of evidence.-On a trial under an indict- ment for murder, where. under the evi- dence introduced the defendant can not invoke the doctrine of self-defense. 1t is not competent for him to introduce in evidence facts showing illicit relations to have existed between his wife and the deceased. and likewise 1t Is incompetent previous to the killing, ordered the de- ceased to stay away from his house.
 B. Homicide; admissibiIity in evidence of the defendants testimony on prelim- irary trial.-On the trial of a defendant under an indictment for murder. where the defendant has testified as witness in his own behalf, 1t Is competent for the State to impeach him by introducing in evidence the testimony given by him on his preliminary trial. Such testimony is also admissible as independent evidence where on said trial he admitted the kill ing of the defendant: 1t being in the na- ture of a judicial confession.

 1. Bill by trustee in bankruptcy to re- cover proceeds of goods transferred in violation of bankrupt act; burden of proof. On a bill filed by a trustee in bankruptcy for the purpose of recovering from the respondents the proceeds of cer- tain goods wares and merchandise al- legged to have been transferred to the re- spondent by the bankrupt In violation of certain provisiosis of the bankrupt act, where 1t appears from the aver rnents of the bill that the real purpose of the bill was to recover the difference In value between the goods allged to have been convyed by the owner of the goods seized and sold by the complainant as trustee in bankruptcy. the burden of proof is upon the person to show that there was a difference in value between the goods sold and conveyed by the bankrupt and those seized and sold by the trustee; and upon the complainant's failure to meet the burden thus put upon him, he cannot maintain the bill.

Held: That under the evidence in such case, the question as to whether the said person entrusted with superintendence was negligent in causing the second lot of cars to be run up the main line, was proper to be sub mitted to the jury, and that 1t was not error for the court at the request of the plaintiff to instruct the jury that they could consider any evidence "tending to show that the two cars which were kick ed on the main line were defective and if the jury believe from the evidence that the foreman Eason (the person entrusted with such superintendence) knew of such defect.
