Uncle and Cousin Testify i'm Murder
 Cnsa

Herklmer, N. r., Nov. 19.-Before the day closed in the trial of Chester E.. Gillette, on the charge of murderlng Grace Brown in the Adirondacks last July, nineteen out of the 109 witnesses subpoenaed for the case had been ex- amined They were for the prosecu- tion. District Attorney Warwd said to- night that the case would go to the jury this week
 Probably the most interesting testi- mony to-day was that of Albert D. Raymond, who conducts q little sum- mer resort near Cortland. He describ- ed an evening boat ride which Gillette and Miss Brown had at his place about June 15.
 Did you notice anything in barticu- lar about the girl when she came back from her boat ride?' was asked
 Yes; she was crying The witness also said Gillette asked for a round- bottom boat, but he was not able to give him one.
 Another feature of to-day's proceed ings was the appearance in court of Gillette's uncle N. H. Gillette, and his cousin, Harold Gillette, both of Cort- land. By placing the elder Gillette on the stand the district attorney sought to support the statement, which he made in his address to the jury on Sat urday, that GilIettes relatives found fault with hf1i for keeping company with Miss Brown. Harold Gillette, who is superintendent of the factory in which Grace Brown and Gillette were employed, testified that he told Gillette it was bad business to call frequent ly upon a girl whom he would not take out in society
