tance. Around the doors leading from the corridor to the court room the crowd was wedgcd In so closely that the police were obliged to resort to foot ball tactics and the court officials and attorneys were obliged to enter the court room through a private. passage way at one side.
 The first witness to be called from among those who were in the vicinity of the cab where Young was shot, was William J. Junior. a policeman. He saw the hanson coming up West Broad when 1t was about fifty feet from where he stood. He could see but one of the occupants. Miss Patterson. Ills attention had been called to a com- motion in the cab by citishen and as the vehicle drew up he ordered the driver to stop.
 As he climbed up on the step he saw 8 man whose body had been concealed by the closed doors. The man was un- consciousness. Miss Patterson told him that her companion had shot him- self and he ordered the cabman to drive to a hospital. In the meantime he had found a revolver in the right hand pocket Of Young's coat. The wit- ness then identified a revolver as the one he had found and 1t was admitted in evidence. He also identihd several articles of clothing which Young wore at the time of the shooting. Junior said he arrested Miss Patterson at the hospital.
 On cross examination he said that when he reached the cab Young'a head was lying in Miss Patterson's lap. His left arm was around her shoulder Miss Patterson was hystericaI and was cry ing: "oh. Caesar. what have you done7'
 Did she say anything eIse7s asked Mir. Levy.
 'Yes, she told me he had said to her. You may not see mo again. 7"
 Edward Joseph Quinn. the detective who accompanied Miss Patterson from the hospital to the Tombs just after she had been arrested, told of conversa- tion between himself and the prisoner
 "After she had asked me If I was policeman" said the witness she said: Caesar Young was q married man and he and 1 were lovers. He was going away and we might never see each oth- CT again.
 "she then asked me if Caesar Young was dead and when replied that he was, she said: I don't want to live now. Why should he kill himself2 He had everything to live for. %
 Did she say anything else while you were in the cab with herr?
 "Yes; she asked me if I had struck Young on the head. I asked her Why should do that? and she replied, ITO kill him."
 Quinn said that Miss Patterson faint ed several times in the station house She was very nervous and asked him to kilI her.. saying that she had noth- ing to live. for, now that Caesar was dead. A4
 When J. Morgan Smith came to the station house." said the witness. "and the defendant told him that Caesar was dead. he seemed to be stupefied at the news"
