HARGIS TOOK STAND
EMBARRASSED SCENES AND INCL
 DENTS OF MURDER.
Plaintiffs Unexpectedly Close Testimony In Suit for Damages by Widow of Marcum-Judge Made
 Several Orders,

Winchester, ky, Dec 20.--Judge Hargis was on tho stand again today and rehearsed the scenes and incidents of the murder of Marcum.
 He said he had insisted in procur- ing a pardon for Tom White, when he had been sentenced for murder in Per ry County. He took the papers in per- son to Governor Beckham and White was pardoned. The White and Hargis families were friendly and the witness said at the time he was a candidate for County Judge and wanted to make all the votes possible. Witness and Curt Jett were not friendly at the time of the killing.
 He heard of threats Jett had made against him. Later he had Jett arrest ed for striking Howard and another man. and when he required a bond of $5,000 for his good behavior. Jett CUTS ed him and was sent to jail. Judge Hargis said he (Hargis) had not asked questions in detail, but asked Feltner in a general way if he would swear according to published statement and Feltner had said he would not
 Mrs. Sarah Patrick, the sister of Mar cum. and the aunt of Mrs. A. IT. Har- gis, testified that the Hargiss and Marcum's were not friendly. She said she had received this information that her brother would be killed and had a conversation with Alex Hargis about the matter about the time Marcum was in the Indian Territory. Hargis said Marcum had acted wisely in leaving. saying that while the difficulties had been adjusted between the Hargis and Marcufns, Ed Callahan might not keep the peaSe.
 The plaintiffs unexpectedly closed their testimony at noon. Just before noon John Abner was called but failed to answer, and an attachment without bail was ordered for him.
 While waiting for his arrest Mrs. Abrelia Marcum was called. She tes- tifed that on one occasion she heard that her husband was to be killed from house owned by Hargis and opposite the Marcum residence. She watched 1t and saw the window slightly raised and after longer watching she saw John Smith and John Abner leaving the house and go to the Hargis store James Head. Jr. cashier of the Jack son Deposit Bank. testified as to the account of F. B. Feltner at that bank
 John Abner was brought in by the Sheriff and sworn. He proved to be a most unsatisfactory witness. His memory was very bad and he could remember but little of the things con corning which he was questioned. The plaintiffs then announced that they were through with their testimony. A; the afternoon session Judge Eenton an nounced that all testimony relative to the financial condition of defendants should be stricken out; also testimony that Curt Jett had been a deputy sher- if under Callahan: also the remark made by Marcum just before he was killed when Tom White passed him That is a bad man and l am afraid of him" The attorneys for defence asked the court to grant ,peremptory instructions and Judge Benton adjourn ed court until tomorrow, when he will hear arguments of counsel on this mo- tion.

Whether Mrs. Chadw ok will be summoned will depend on counsel for Receiver Doeser, whose attorneys expected to take up the matter.
 Should Mrs Chadwick be brought into court. 1t is unlikely that she will give any testimony. If she does. 1t will be against the advice of her attorney. who refuses even to allow her to be sworn as witness.
 Mrs Chadwick was brought into court by several deputy msrshals She took a seat next 10 the desk of Referee Remington. She was pale. but appear ed in somewhat better health than on the day of her arrival from New York last week. When the court was ready to proceed, J. P. Dawley. attorney for Mrs. Chadwick made the announce ment that he would not allow her to be
 sworn. but had decided to have her come Into court that 1t could not be said that she was shamming illness,

It may not be 1ib- eral measure. but there are too many projects of pressing importance to be neglected with loss to the Government think 1t is quite safe to say that we will have rivers and harbors bill at this session, notwithstanding the talk of a deficit. That Chairman Burton will stay where he Is think too ri- diculous to question.
 The talk of no bill is merely a re- currence of the old story wrought by alarmists every time the question comes up. It was the same story in 1899 when there was a bigger deficit on hand than now. and when Congress passed the largest rivers and harbors appropriat tion in its history. .
 McReynoIds is Slated.
 James c. McReynolds, now Assistant Attorney General of the Department of Justice. who is stationed in Washing ton, the present tip Is, will succeed the late, Judge Ell 8. Hammond of the Western District of Tennessee. Mir. McReynoids is a comparatively young lawyer of Nashville, who was two years ago an Unsuccessful candidate for Congress against John wesly Gaines.
 The Republican chief referee of the State, Representative Walter P. Brown low. Is heartily endorsing for the ap- pointment John E. Mccall. who Is Col lector of Internal Revenue for the dis trtct comprising West and Middle Ten nessee. Other Tennesseeans have en- dorsed John C. Saweeney, formerly of Paris. Tenn. Judge of the Court of First Instance in the Philippines, but the chances seem to favor McReynelds, who appears to have made helpful impression upon Attorney General Moody.

 Round IS. Britt jabbed as usual with left to the face and danced away with the Dane endeavored to get him to close quarters. Finally Nelson sent a straight left to Britt's jaw and in a mix they exchanged lefts to the face and Britt worked a left uppercut to the jaw which did not stay the Dane in the least. Britt was again buf- fetted about the ring but stopped Nell son with left hook to the body. The referee then separated them from a clinch and Britt ripped his left with terrific force to the body. Nelson chased Britt around but his blows were i'll timed and Britt kept peg ging away with left to the jaw and then sent right swing to the head. Britt went to his corner with blood flowing from there re-opened abrasion on his forehead. At the end of the round the crowd yelled itself hoarse.
 Round 19.-Nelson forced Britt about the ring and Britt footworked too much for the Dane Britt then hooked twice to body and they went to clinch. Britt swung hard left to the ear and then swung a fearful left to the body. They mixed it again with the crowd hissing. Nelson chased Britt aoout again, but Britt met him on all occasions with straight lefts to the face, which he varied with a hard right swing to the ear and a left hook to the body. Britt put another left hook to the body and they clinched against the ropes. Nelson suddenly caught Britt mapping and swung two fearful rights and left to the jaw. rocking Britt's head. Britt then came back with right and left swing hard on the jaw and the bell rang with honors even. The crowd renewed it's cries of Britt" 4"Nelson." at the end of the round.

In clinch Referee Roche had his hands full separating the bel liRerents. Britt then sent Nels ms head back with a left hook and followed it with left swing to the jaw. Then Britt once more hooked his left to the jaw and followed 1t with two right swings and a left hook to the face. The fighting was fearful Britt waded in with right and left swings to NeIson's jaw and the gong changed. denoting that the battle was over. Referee Roche promptly awarded the decision to Britt. The decision was greeted with mingled cheers and hissing.

although he knew her to be in no con- dition to be summoned.
 T have not been able to carry on d connected conversation with this wo- man. owing to her condition" said Mir. Dawiey. T am as much in the dark about her affairs as any one."
 Touching on the possibility of con. tempt proceedings growing out of the bankruptcy case, Attorney Dawley said:
 You can send her back to jail if she is in contempt for not testifying. At night she can sleep in one cell and stay in another during the day.
 Mrs. Chadwick became more nervous as the attorney argued. and seemed to be on the verge of fainting. Soon after the announcement was made that sho was excused. she returned to the jail in a carriage. --- -',F H~
 Shortly before the bankruptcy hear ing in the Chadwick case was resumed before Referee Remington this morn ing. Attorney Dawley, for Mrs. Chad wick, announced that he had decided to offer no further objections to the plac- ing of Mrs Chadwick on the witness stand at the afternoon session.
 Attorney Dawley told the court that as long as the receiver was insistent as to Mrs. Chadwick's appearance he nao uecldeo aIter consulting With her to have her go to the bankruptcy court room and have the matter disposed He said he had the advice of a physi- clan who had called on Mrs. Chadwick today that there would be no danger in attending the hearing, although 1t was plain her physical condition was not good. E'
 Mir. Dawley stated today that at the time he reserved the right to with draw the plea of not guilty in Mrs. Chadwick's case in the United States court it was done solely for the pur- pose of raising any question which might present itself as to the sufifcs iency of the indictments. He said he had no intention of withdrawing the plea later and pleading guilty as had been intfmated. He said he reserved the right to raise technical objections to the indictment for the reason that at the time of entering the plea he had not then examined the indictments.
