Remembered but Little

The witness could only remember ap-
prOximately these details He said he
was sure Sutton wore an overcoat, and
did not remember Suttons taking il off
any time previous to the first alterca-
tion between him and Sutton when
| they both stripped to the waist pre-
paratory to fghting.
The lawyer read excerpts from Lieu
tenant Adams testimony at the first
| inquest, and pointed out some of the
discrepancies.
The witness insisted, however the
testimony seemed to vary that his an
swers at the present inquiry We're the
! correct ones.
81 want you to state again if you saw
! Lieutenant Sutton kill himself" Davis
said
"As have said, I saw Sutton draw a
revolver from under him in his right
! hand, like this illustrating the mo-
/ tiOn), turn his head to the right and
| fire. l saw the flash jump about six
! inches," the lieutenant replied.
| Davis pressed the question as to
whether Sutton fired the fatal shot with
/ the large revolver or the small one.
/ 1T wasn't very light" said the lieu
/ tenant, but it was my idea he shot
! himself with a small revolver"
! Davis called the witness attention to
! his testimony Of yesterday, in which he
/ said positively that it was the small
! weapon.
Did Not Identity Gun
81 have told you half dozen times
! this morning that I did not positively
! identify the gun" said the witness.
1T didn't seem as if it was as large
! as the service gun"
The witness said he was assigned to
| the gunbOat Allen, which cruised up
! and down the coast of China, shortly
after the Sutton affair.
! "Was Lieutenant Osterman with
/ you?" asked Davis.
He was not" replied Adams.
The witness said he had not seen Os-
/ terman for some time until he met him
| at the present inquiry.
Davis referred to a reported inter-
view with Adams in a New York paper
/ Of July T, in which Adams was quoted
as saying that the Suttons We're try
! ing to trump up murder charge
against two who were innocent" and
asked the witness if he said anything
! like that.
! objected to this line of questioning on
! the ground that it was not pertinent tc
| the issue.
"This witness knows what he is
charged with" said Major Leonard.
"He knows there are no charges against
him as far as the department is con-
cerned."
His Honesty Questioned
Davis argued that it, besides obtain
| ing counsel, Adams had made a state
| ment that he considered himself ac-
cused of murder it had a direct bear
| ing on his reputation as a witness.
Commander Hood, presiding, ruled
! that Adams did not have to answer the
! question.
Davis questioned the witness in re-
gard to his interviews with Mrs. Par
ker, Sutton's sister, soon after Sutton's
death.
Did Mrs. Parker ask you at that
time to make a statement of the truth
of this whole AFFAIR."" asked Mr.. Davis,
The witness said he believed she did.
Did you make such a statement"
mo, sir" replied Adams.

Alleged Suicide Was
Committed
By Associated Press.)

4 NNAPOLIS, Md, July 20.-The pro-
" ceedings at today's session of the
Il court of inquiry investigating the
death of Lieutenant Sutton of Portland
Ore, took a sensational turn when First
Lieutenant William r. Bevan of the
marine corps, now attached to the bat
tleship New Jersey, testified.
He related his part in the tragedy of
October 10, 1907, when young Sutton
met his death.
Lieutenant Bevan was officer of the
guard in the marine camp on that
night
Like Lieutenant Adams, he testified
that Sutton deliberately shot himself,
but his description of Sutton's alleged
suicide varied from the story told by
Adams.
The most glaring disagreement with
Adams story came when Bevan swore
he and two other officers were on top
of Sutton and trying to hold him down
to prevent him from using his revolver
when Sutton freed an arm from under
him and fired bullet into his own
brain, after some one remarked he
(Sutton) had killed Lieutenant Rocker
Bevan's testimony also revealed a
situation bordering on a wild west ram
page had existed in the marine camp
prior to the shooting, when Sutton had
been trying to make Lieutenant Roel-
ker dance by levelling two revolvers
at his feet.
Lieutenant Adams, Lieutenant Oster-
man and Lieutenant Bevan occupied
the time of the court today. Osterman,
as a member of Sutton's automobile
party on the night of October 12 cor
roborated Lieutenant Adams story, ex-
cept to add he believed Sutton was
much intoxicated that night
Adams Still Testfles
The second days session opened with
Lieut.. Robert E. Adams, u. S. NJ. c.,
still on the witness stand. 1t was ex
pected the other young officers of ma
rines who were with sutton on the
night he met his death, including Lieu
tenants Bevin and Osterman, would
follow Lieutenant Adams on the wit
ness stand.
Osterman had a fight with Sutton an
hour before Adams met him, and he
began blazing away at Adams with two
revolvers, according to Adams testi
mony
Mrs. Sutton's lawyer began to ques-
tion Adams today about an interview
he had with Sutton's sister, Mrs. Hugh
A. Parker, shortly after young Sut-
tons death. Mrs Parker, who is at
tending the hearing with her mother,
had wanted to question all the young
officers who We're supposed to know
something about her brothers death.
She had asked Adams to grant her a
talk alone and tell the truth about the
matter. according to the testimony
Mr. Davis, counsel for Suttons moth
err went over the scene of the shooting
again with Lieutenant Adams, and
dwelt on the details of distance and
time, in an effort to place the exact
spot where and the time at which Sut-I
ton was shot.

A piece of blank verse from the pen

suited the big book and found that

not let the soul in, and thus he spoke /:

decree
That you shall 90 and dwell among

of the gossiper's doom, lesson that
is very much needed among all condi.

A RIDICULOUS SITUATION.

The Jackson News calls attention
to the fact that the state of Missis-
sippi is in debt to the militia boys
for the last call to Meadville. 1t, is
also noted that the regular and emer-
gency appropriations for the purpose
of paying the militia are less in Mis-
sissippi than in any other state of
equal population. The idea of a state
not being able to pay its citizen SOL
diers is ridiculous. We recollect in
stances when in this county it has
been impossible for school teachers
to cash their pitifully small county
warrants without discounting them.
When the state, we use the word in
its broadcast sense, cannot pay it's
servants the situation becomes both
laughable and humiliating. The state
it is that is supposed to safeguard
the interests of the individual. 1t Is
to the state as represented by the
courts that the individual appeals
when he finds himself being done in
justice by the individual. 1t is to the
state that the man appeals when
