 Henry Lawson was the first wit ness sworn He said the prisoner was first struck by one of the white men, and it was then that he saw him use the knife This the prisoner stoutly denied and was asked by the judge if he had any questions he wanted to ask, but he did not.
 Sam Alton was the second witness He testified that he did not see the cutting. nor did he even remember the prisoner. He gave a very confused ac- count of the affair
 J L. Martin was the third witness He said he was in the pool room when the trouble began, but that he did not think this was the man that did the cutting. Likewise his testimony was not damaging
 Prank Barozo was the fourth and last witness. He did not see any part of the fracas. as he was in the restau rant next door
 Segueda was likewise bound over to the grand jury.
