them he arose. The men exchanged friendly greetings and Day remarked that. dinner was not on the table, at the same time inviting Duncan into ns rem. Duncan walked into the room and Miss Berry went through another door to the dining room to help her grandmother prepare the ta- ble. She said she was there about fifteen minutes when she was star tied by shot She was so badly frightened, she said, she did not re- member the ether shots, which fol- lowed in rapid succession. There was no loud talking. she said. Both doors between Days room and the dining room were open and she could have easily heard any loud conversation. An instant later Day walked into the dining room from the rear of the house and said: "Go lay down, grandmother; I'm not hurt" Mrs. Thrower is known familiarly to her Doarders as grandmother, Day re- mained in the dining room few sec onds and then returned to his room. He later left the house.
 Saw Day in Room.
 Mrs. Gatling, postmistress at Clio> who took her meals at the boarding house. was there for her dinner when Miss Berry and Duncan arrived. She remained several minus and re- turned to the postof1ce. AS she left the house she said she saw Day sit ting inside his room, near the door, but she did not see Duncan in the room. Her testimony was of little im- portance.
 Brazell Saw Shooting.
 Richard Brazell, who was chopping wood in the yard, just sixty-seven steps from Days door, said he turned at hearing the first shot. Day was standing in his door, firing his re- volver at someone in the room. He did not remember how many shots were fired. Day hurried from the porch and went around the house. He did not see him after that. Duncan staggered out of Days room and was apparently trying to keep from fall 1 ing. He fell and rolled into the yard. Brazell says he ran to him and asked him if he was hurt. Duncan did not reply Brazell unbuttoned his vest and his shirt was bathed in blood His coat and vest fell back and Brazell says he saw Duncan's revolver in the scabbard in his right hip pocket. It was not taken from the scabbard un- til others arrived. and had not been discharged.

a job, but worked until p. III. That
 was on Saturday. He said the reason
 he rema ned at Clio till Monday, the day of the tragedy, was to see Dun can and get him to get Rutherford to reconsider. Day said he had been
 in his room for two hours previous to the shooting. He admitted greet ing Duncan in a friendly manner as he came upon the porch. and he said
 he invited Duncan into his room. telling him dinner was not ready. They dis~nssed the Rutherford letter xaad daally. Day says. he asked Dun
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1909-03-27

can why he had not kept his word and straightened the matter with Rutherford for him. Day says Dun- can told him that his relations with Rutherford were not very pleasant and the witness said that Duncan made other sensational statements regarding his partner and their bus mess. Witness said he and Duncan talked for several minutes about the affairs of the company and Day final ly told him they had nothing to do with his case. Day said Duncan re- piled that he had seen Rutherford and that he did not intend to interfere again in Days behalf. Witness said he told Duncan that he would take the machinists before Rutherford to explain and clear himself of any neg ligence; that his reputation was at stake and that nobody who had any respect for the obligations of Mason ry (Day and Duncan being Masonsl WOulQ uO dS DuuCdu Haul uoue uiilt'
 Day declared that Duncan said he would never get to Rutherford; that he Day) was a G. d-- s--- -- and that he would kill him (Day) on the spot.
 Duncan reached for his gun, Day says, and both tried to get to their feet. Duncan's gun or ring caught on the arm of the rocker in which lie was seated, Day said, and then wit ness began firing. He emptied his revolver into Duncans body, firing six shots. Day says when Duncan's revolver or ring on his right hand caught in the chair Duncan tried to release 1t with his left. It was then that Day says he fired his first shot.
 The Ring Mystery.
 At this interval the defense threw a bombshell under the prosecution when it produced gold ring, belong ing to Duncan, bearing a raised Ma sonic emblem and Duncans name en- erayed inside the rim. This ring was not missed since the tragedy. Day says he found it lying near Duncan S char after the shooting and that he has had it in his possession ever since The prosecution will put wit nesses on the stand Saturday to show that Duncan frequently pulled the ring off his finger while in converse tion and sonnet mes carried it in his vest pocket. The defense claims tha the ring was jerked off by Duncan II an effort to release himself. IT., ring was introduced as evidence.
 Statements Conflict.
 Under the rapid crosseXaminatiol of the states attorneys Day contra dtted the statement that he had re ma ned in his room for two hour previous to the shooting. It wa shown that he purchased tickets ol the day of the tragedy from Clio t Cabool and retuon and from Clio {, Pine Baf and return. whisA he d

again he would march him to $ table, make him write his time and if he does, he'll never get up alive" This statement was emphatically denied by Day. Day also denied that he came to Pine Bluff after receipt of the first letter from Rutherford and after go- ing to the company's office here, said he would answer the letter in per son." This incident will be brought out at the hearing when it is re- stunned Saturday morning. Miss Roe buck, q stcnographer for the com pany, who is said to have overheard Days remark, will be used to inn peach Days statement, it is said.
 Day admitted that he had revolv- CT in his pocket all day Monday. He did not fully explain why he did not talk with Duncan while he was around the mill and at the commits sary that morning, when the counsel asked him why he waited for him to come to the house.
 At 6 o'clock, after Day had been on the witness stand for more than an hour, court adjourned until Saturday morning. The state will place wit nesses on the stand to testify to the good feeling and intimate friendship that existed between Rutherford and Duncan: that perfect harmony char acterized the business affairs of the big lumber concern and that Duncan and Rutherford always agreed on ev- cry propos tion, even to the letter which was written by Rutherford to , Day and in which Rutherford stated that MT. Duncan concurred and would appreciate an explanation.
 It is believed that the hearing will conclude by Saturday noon.
 The Morning Session.
 Miss Sallie Berry. cashier at the commissary, repeated practically the lsame story told on the day of the tragedy. She inviHd Duncan to go to dinner with her at her grand mothers, Mrs. Lacy Thrower, who conducts the boarding house where Day lived. She said it. was custom ary for Duncan to eat there while al Clio. They walked to the house and upon the porch. Day was seated just inside the door of his room. which led to the frcot .porce. When DF sax

nit,ed. He admitted going to Cabool and said he walked back instead of waiting for the train, upon which Duncan usually returned to Pine Bluff from Clio. The state brought forth contradictory statements as to the time required for Day to walk from Catool to Clio.
 Day Makes Denials.
 Day denied that he had previously threatened Duncan's life. He was asked if he had not told Pierce Koon. an employe of the mill that Duncan had "jacked him up" and that If the
