ter they had reached Richmond on that

At the meeting of the Street and
Sewer Directors this morning Council
man Slower of the Seventh ward, pre-
sented a petition for the Improvement
Of Sha1lcross avenue from residents
along that thoroughfare. The directors
promised to give the matter their at
tention. The petition was as follows.
I'VE the undersigned property own
ers Of the Seventh ward located on
Shallcross avenue between Scott and
Union streets, do hereby respectfully
petition that your honorable body give
some consideration to this street In
the general repair work which Is about
to be done by your body.
I'VE respectfully contend that the
street in question has never been re-
paired; the bed of said street being
yellow clay in the same condition as
when the street was originally opened.
I'VE also beg to submit that in sum-
mer this street is so overgrown with
weeds as to render 1t an excellent
source for disease germs, while in
winter the mud is so deep as to make
travel for vehicles practically impos-
sible.
"In view of the above we respect
fully ask that this street be given your
earnest consideration and the neces-
sary repairs made"

DELAWARE FIRED AT PANTHER

WASHINGTON. Sept. ACCORDING
to unofficial information the dread
nought Delaware did actually fire her
big guns at the repair ship Panther,
mistaking her for the old batleship
San Marcos in the long-range firing
tests in Chesapeake Bay few days
ago. Two salvos were fired at the
Panther, one. It is said, falling short
of the repair ship, but uncomfortably
close to her. while the other reached
over her.
The Panther was anchored 1900
yards from the San Marcos. The
Delaware was 10000 yards away and
at that range the Panther and San
Marcos looked very much alike. each
having two masts and one funnel.

when the child died. but said he did
so because of a threat to turn the
case over to the city, and he did not
want the publicity that would natural
ly follow such course.
Referring to the resumption Of his
relations with the Binford girl after
her return from Norfolk, Beattie said
that he had been out several times
with her, and that, on the week pre-
vious to the one in which his wife was
murdered, he was with Beulah Bin
ford on Monday, Thursday and Satur-
day nights.
The prisoner denied that he either
saw or telephoned Paul Beattie on
Thursday night, that he telephoned
Paul TO meet him at the corner Of
Short and Main streets. and that he
had been with his cousin to McAvoy's
barroom. Asked If his denial covered
all that Paul Beatie had testified to as
to what he did on Thursday night
Beattie replied that It did.
Nov, Mr. Beattie," said Mr. Wen
denburg "if John Joseph, owner of tho
place on the corner of Short and Main.
and John Briton with him would tes-
tify that they saw you on Thursday
night before the murder; and If a lady,
Mrs. Nolan, who was sitting on the
porch that night. would testify that
you came to Pauls home on Thursday
night, and Mrs. Beattie would testify
likewise-would you still say that you
were not with Paul that night?"
'Yes, sir There was only one night
I could have possibly been in McEyoy's S
and that was Saturday night. ! am
pretty sure / wasn't there then"
Prosecutor Wendenburg then asked
Beattie II he had not given his cousin
instructions about the gun on that

tion because the witness had stated
previously that he did not know that
his wife was dead until Doctor Mer-
Ger told him at the owen home
The witness told how his wife fell
between his back and the seat after
being shot and Prosecutor Wenden-
burg produced the shirt worn by the
prisoner that night and asked him
why there was no blood between its
shoulders on the back. Beattie re-
piled that he must have had his coat
on.

duced and he put it on.

der occurred. He said the reason why
he had asked for an itemized bill was
that he thought she might say the
bill was larger than it was, and re-
iterated. with emphasis, what he had
said during his direct examination
about not being in love with the Bin
ford girl.
When he was asked If, on July IA,
he was not making preparations for
an Independent home for Beulah Bin
ford, Beattie replied that he never
had any such intention. He said she
could not stay with either her mother
or her sister, and that the latter
would not walk down the street with
her.
The questioning then shifted TO tho
night of the tragedy, and Prosecutor
Wendenburg asked:
@. Where did the highwayman
have the gun hid? A. ! don't know
that he had It hid. didn't see it
until he raised the gun and pointed
it at me.
@. What reason could that man
have for numbering you or your wife?
A. None that / know of. He might
have been trying to scare me; he
might have been drunk
Q. Was he staggering? A. He
swerved in the road. but that wasn't
necessarily because he was drunk.
@. There was no provocation Civ
en- by you, was there? A. None that
know Of, unless ! might have tried
to prevent him from going across the
road
Q. How far away from you was
the man? A. | can't say. I know

the individual ear test is desired
the Laboratory will send envel-

maturing and it was all kept
green and the cob sappy by the
