LEXINGTON. s. c., Oct. 13.-The jury

an unusually large crowd was present and by
the time adjournment was taken tonight
the room was packed. the audience includ-

Contrary TO the programme agreed upon

Requests by counsel for instructions to
the jury were read and argued to-day. The
State desires the jury be instructed that
the doctrine of self-defense requires that if
there is any reasonable safe way of es-
cape man must use it and not take a
life: that in order to establish a plea of
self defense the jury must be satisfied by a
preponderance of evidence that the person
making the plea. was not at fault in bring
ing on the difficulty and that he believed
he was in danger of serious bodily harm,
and further that a person OF ordinary pru-
dence would have believed the same. The
State further asks the jury 10 be instructed
that previous threats do not justify the
taking Of life, unless there is a demonstra-
tion at the time of the homicide.
The defense asks that the jury be in
structed that the question to be determined
is whether or not any person OF ordinary
prudence and reason would have done as
the defendant did: also, that man may act

OIL TOUCHES HIGH MARK
INDIANA CRUDE At S1.21 FOR SEC
OND TINE IN ITS HISTORY.
Further Advance to s1.23 Expected by
Conservative Oil Men-Other Fen
lures i'm the Trade.
,ecial to :he indianapolis Journal.

Special TO The Indianapolis Journal.
MONTPELIER, Ind, Oct. BIN accord
ance with the general belief and the pre-
dictions of oil men, the market has reached
the highest price ever paid for Indiana oil.
AS was stated last week, the highest. price
Indiana oil ever brought was sl.H on Feb.
5, 1900 At that time the price did not re-
main long at that high mark, but soon
dropped. and many producers and farmers
were left with their oil in the tanks, wait
ing for a higher market. That price has
never been reached since that date until
to-day when a 2-cent boost was given
Indiana and South Lima oils, which sent
them to s1.21, the highest price ever paid
for either of these oils. Now the conserv-
ative oil men feel sure the market will
break all records and before II stops going
up IL will go several cents past Sl.25.
Eastern oils were given the usual Scent
advance. which put Lima to $1.S3 and Penn
sylvania S1.6S.
The highest price reached by Indiana oil
during 1902 was on Dec. 81, when 1t made
a 3-cent advance TO $1.10 During last
year there was a steady advance from
Jan. 1. when ii was so cents, until the last
day of the year. There were several
three-cent advances during the year.

follows: Tiona, s1-S5: Pennsylvania, $1.6S;
