by Associated Press.

by Associated Press
NEW YORK. May This case Is
one of deliberate murder or suicide.
There can be no manslaughter about 1t.
There should be no compromise verdict.
She is either guilty of murder in the
first degree or not at ALL"
With these words Abraham Levy,
counsel for Nan Patterson, brought to
a close this afternoon his five-hour
argument in defense of the former
chorus girl, charged with the murder
of Caesar Young.
During the long argument Miss Pat
terson faced the jury unflinchingly
The court room was crowded, most Of
the attendants being women who
struggled to get look at the defend
ant. At one time during the afternoon
the judge was compelled to stop Mr..
Levy while court officers expelled from
the room some women who persisted in
discussing the case in audible tones to
the annoyance of all present.
Mr.. Levy reviewed all the testimony
in detail and declared not a word had
been introduced which showed any pur-
pose on the part of Miss Patterson or
her brother-in-law and sister, Mr.. and
Mrs. j. Morgan Smith, to threaten the
life of Caesar Young.
The suicide theory was strictly en-
phasized by Mr.. Levy, who contended
that the powder stains on Young's
fingers proved that he had shot him.
self.
Mr.. Levy secuted the idea that girl
would be able to make such an assault
on a trained athlete like Young. He
also ridiculed the idea that Miss Pat
terson should have chosen a crowded
public street as a place for murder
when she had so many opportunities to
attack Young where there would have
been little danger of detection. Assis-
tant District Attorney Rand will close
for the people and it is possible the
case will go to the jury tomorrow.
1t was o'clock when Mr.. Levy, who
had spoken in all over five hours, con-
cluded his address. During his long
talk Nan kept her eyes on the jury,
watching the effect of Mr.. Levy's argu-
ment. When adjournment was an
nounced Miss Patterson walked back
to the prison with a steady step. She
made no comment on the days pro-
ceedings.

cared for her.

Stockton street San Francisco. Mrs.
Plymire was about 81 years old and

WARSAW, May 1.-Nearly 100 per-
sons were killed or wounded in dis
turbances in various quarters of War
saw today. The troops apparently were
uncomfortable and violated all orders
to act with moderation. They fired
into the crowd of demonstrators and
workmen in desperation resorted to
the use of firearms and bombs. Many
children and women are among the
dead and dying.
What approaches a reign of terror
exists tonight; the city presents most
gloomy aspect and the temper of the
entire community augurs i'll.
The presence of numerous patrols of
Cossacks, cavalry and infantry Is the
reminder of lurking danger.
No untoward incident was reported
until after noon. The first disturbances
occurred between 1 and 2 o'clock when
a procession of several thousand work.
men carrying red flags marched along
Zelasna street. The demonstration was
quite orderly and proceeded without
molestation for some distance.
Suddenly several squads of uhlans
appeared, but without interfering with
the procession and took up a position
along the sidewalks while the workmen
passed through the lines. Then COM
pany of infantry approached from the
front, and Immediately the cavalry
charged into the procession, driving it
with the fiat of their swords into a dis
organized mass. Then the cavalry
withdrew and the infantry fired a
volley, whereupon the demonstrators
turned and fled. The infantry continued
to discharge volleys into the retreat
ing, shrieking multitude. Thirty-one
and of the latter it is believed fifteen
will die.
Shooting Was UnproVoked
The shooting Is described as having
been quite unprovoked. 1t has aroused
the most intense Indignation among all
classes in Warsaw. Many OF those who
were killed or wounded were shot in
the back, showing that they were run
ming away when they were struck.
Another terrible scene was enacted
at o'clock this afternoon at the
corner of Hlota and Sosnore Streets
when workmen fired from behind a wall
at a patrol, which Immediately opened
fire on the passing crowds, killing or
wounding twenty persons.
The first bomb throwing occurred at
9:35 o'clock tonight, when a bomb was
thrown into a Cossack patrol near the
Vienna station Three Cossacks and
one policeman were killed, and two
women who were leaving the station
at the time were severely wounded by
the explosion. Cossacks and infantry
fired a number of volleys and it is re-
ported that many persons were killed
