expert the result would be a foregone
conclusion; in fact, there is hardly an
amateur skipper on the bay but could
pick the winner in a contest in which
the Corinthian defender" would be a
participant. This being the case, the
contest between yachts of the clubs
named would lack the interest and en-
thusiasm which would result from a
contest with a yacht Of unknown quail
ity, from a club that had not had any
of its fleet in the local races. In the
interest of the sport it would be far
more desirable that a challenge be ac-
cepted from the Sequoia club.

TRY HALE AGAIN
F0RK|LL|NC GIRL
Second Trial for Murder Of Pret
ty Young Bristol Woman to
Occur This Month.
TRY TO BREAK DOWN DEFENSE
Prosecution Will Endeavor to
Show That 1t Was Impossible
for Girl to Shoot Herself.
Especial to The Times -rIspatch.l


BRISTOL. VA. May 6.--The second
trial of Ack Hale. who is charged With
having murdered Lille Davis, the
pretty Bristol girl who was found dy-
ing in East Hill. Cemetery here one
night In march, 1907, with bullet
hole in her left breast. is due to com
mence in the Circuit Court at F'lount-
vile, Sullivan county. Tennessee. on
the fourth Monday in this month. Both
sides have announced ready, and 1t
now appears that the case will be
taken up as scheduled.
j. Harry Swan, Jr., who is to assist
Attorney-General Harmon in the pro-
secutton, has been conducting some ex-
periments with revolver as means Of
substantiating the theory that the shot
which ended the life of Miss Davis was
shot at too distant a range to have
been self-inflicted. The contention OF
Hale all the while has been that the
girl ended her own life with his pistol
after having made repeated threats to
do so. The experiments with a revolt
yer show that Miss Davis's breast
would have been blackened by powder
had she used the revolver herself AS
1t was the breast was practically free
from powder burns, demonstrating, as
1t appears to the prosecution. that the
shot which ended the girls life could
not have been fired from her own
hand These pistol experiments will
constitute one of the most interesting
features OF the new evidence.
j. s. Ashworth, chief of counsel for
Hale, has recently been taking a num-
Der of dispositions with view to i'm
peachins some OF the more important
witnesses for the prosecution. One Of
the most formidable witnesses against
Hale was recently convicted of repre-
aehsible conduct towards respectable
women. and Is now serving a sentence
at hard labor on the county roads.
AT the former trial a ma tority n
the jury was in favor Of n verdict of
murder in the first degree. ONLY one
