While on the witness stand in her
own behalf this forenoon, Mrs Mabel
Warner produced the feature of the
trial thus far when she declared that
the signature of her uncle on the will
she claims she found was not genu-
inc. The statement was made by her
at the very conclusion of the direct
examination. and came as climax
to her testimony.
1t was about IL o'clock this forenoon
when Mrs. Warner was called to the
stand by the defense and she was
closely watched while upon the stand
During the direct examination the
defendant told of her relations to her
late uncle and stepfather. She said
she was 80 years OF age and had lived
with him all her life after her 10th
year. She also told of the gathering
in the private office OF the Weston
bank during which the alleged will
was discovered. In a very graphic
manner she described the meeting in
the room. the examination of the pa
pers in the box and the discovery"
of the will. She said that when
Cashier Hail read the document he
looked over the sheet at her and de-
clined to answer her questions for
some time. When he accused her of
placing the paper in the box she de-
clared 1t was lie and refused to give
the paper to Hall when he requested
II.
Did you place the paper in the
box?" inquired Attorney Winter.
II certainly did not" replied the
defendant in a tone slightly unusual
in its emphasis. She was then asked
regarding her uncle's signature and
answered as stated above. It was 12
o'clock when the direct examination
of Mrs. Warner was concluded and
the noon recess was then taken.
Other witnesses examined this fore
noon were Mr.. Warner, husband of
the defendant. and Frank Blair. War
ner was on the stand for some time
and was cross-examined at length by
Judge Fee. However. but little II any
thing new was brought out by his tes-
timony.
Cross-Examinadon.
This afternoon the cross-exa nina
ton of Mrs. Warner was taken up by
Judge Fee and lasted for nearly an
hour. During that time she was ques-
toned rather closely about her life
and told of various places in which
she had lived. Pendleton, Walla
Walla, Rossland, b. c., ogden and nu-
merous other cities had been her abid-
ing place temporarily. She was also
interrogated in regard to the meeting
in the bank the day the bogus will
was found.
After Mrs. Warner had left the
stand Fred Young was recalled for
cruss-eXamination by Judge Fee and
his former testimony was impeach-
ed. While under direct examination
yesterday Young had declared he had
no interest whatever in the outcome
of the will contest. This afternoon
he admitted having said his sister had
promised him 100 acres of land and
the farming of the remainder in case
she was successful in the suit.
At o'clock this afternoon the de-
fense was apparently drawing its case
TO a close and will doubtless rest be-
fore evening. Arguments will proba-
bly, be heard tomorrow forenoon.

Would Stand by Primary.

Selma, June 17.-(Special.) )-The talk yesterday and today in Selma has been the manifesto of Governor Conner with regard to the succession to the senator ship and the probable action of the leg islature. The ordinary citizen is out spoken in his belief that Colonel Bank head is entitled by every notion of right and justice to the election. Little groups gathered here and there on the streets in almost every instance expressed this opin- ion, and they further stated that to com pei Colonel Bankhead to make another campaign for the office won would be a hardship that was as unnecessary as It would be unproductve of any change in the result.
 Men who did not vote for Colonel Bank head in the primary last August declare unequivocally that they would vote for him now in preference to anybody. One erstwhile wild and woolly supporter of Governor Conner vehemently declared, Colonel Bankhead was just as much the nominee of the party for senator as was Governor Conner, and if the latter endeavors to defeat the party's will, fa- vor asking him to resign. I would like to impeach him if it could be done, should he thwart the will of the people as eX- pressed last August"

William B. Bankhead, son of John IT.

He had found most of the members in line with this idea and he did not think they would fall in the end to accept the ih- dorsement as instruction to so act.
 A member of the civil committee of the legislature here today said that every man on the committee is for Bankhead as shown by poll taken Saturday. MT. Bankhead said that headquarters would not be opened just yet, If at all, belev- ing that the work can be done as well from Jasper as from the capital.
 Congressman J. Thomas Heflin is here today but did not say what he thought about the race of Bankhead. He did say, however, that in the opinion of the best posted democrats of the country William J. Bryan is the only available candidate for the presidency, being of the opinion that the Nebraskan can beat MT. Roose- velt or any other republican.

JUDGE WALKER MAY
 BE COMER'S CHOICE Administration Friends Are
 Pushing Rumor WALKER IS SURPRISED Mass Meeting In Lauderdale County
Mass Meeting In Lauderdale County Protests Against Movement to Defeat John H. Bankhead
 for U. s. Senate.

Montgomery, June -(special)-From sources close to Governor Conner and other leaders of the dominant faction of the democratic party in the state and of the administration, comes the report that the governor and his friends are seriously considering the grooming of Judge Rich- ard w. Walker of Huntsville, former su- preme court justice, for the vacant sen atorship, to receive their support in the legislature.
 No one semes to be willing to take en- tire responsibility for the rumor, though more than one man close to the admins tratiop has talked of the suggestion. While there Is no statement that the governor is behind the movement or in any way tied up with it, the fact remains that he is very friendly to Judge Walker, as shown by his selection of him to have part in the litigation or the railroads against new state laws.
 Judge Walker is a man of ability and long service in the state. He was ap- pointed to the bench by Thomas G. Jones, then governor and now judge of the United States court, and since retiring has maintained a law office at his home in Huntsville. He was a Conner man In the race for governor and has had part in many of the movements put forth by the leaders of the administration. He has come into prominence recently by his aid in the defense of the state in the railroad suits and is, therefore, somewhat in the limelight. It is not known here what he thinks about the alternate plan and how he stands with regard to the theory that the indorsement of the pri- mary was an indorsement to the legisla- ture as we'll as the executive of the state.
 There are many suggestions as to the advisabiity of the statement made by Bankhead to the effect that if deprived of the senatorship he would go out after the governorship. This is supposed to be a shot in the direction of Henry B. Gray, lieutenant governor, and known to have an eye on the main job. In fact MT. Gray has been called the governor in waiting by some and he only recently said that he was willing to make the race for the honor as a believer in the policies and doctrines of Governor Conner
