 The defendant alleges that there was a fixed animosity existing with toward defendant, and that on the evening immediately preceding the homicide deceasd, who had ire Quently threatened defendant with personal violence, procured a quanti- ty of liquor and became intoxicated and was lying in wait for the purpose of attacking defendant.

This morning Marshal Faulkner was put on the stand for the government. The mar shal was followed by Fernando Cos tello. the star witness of the prosecu- ton.

ENDS
 LIFE, A SUICIDE

CHRISTIANA, Norway, Jan. 6. - Hjalmar Johansen, the well known Norwegian explorer, died by his own hand in this country yesterday. Jo- hansen was with Captain Roald Amundsen on his voyage to the Ant arctic regions which resulted in the discovery of the South Pole by Amundsen on the final dash to the pole, but he was left at the base of supplies while Amundsen pushed on
 This seems to have preyed on Jo- hansen's mind, and his friends had for some time noticed that he was des- pondent, he having expressed regret that he was deprived of the opportun- ity to accompany Amundsen.

 Poverty of Buildings.
 For many months there has existed a poverty of buildings in Juneau. No other Alaska community. that had set tied to a conservative basis, has ex- perienced the distressed condition that prevails here. Every habitable place is spoken for three months in advance of possible vacancy occur ring. Every building in the business section is occupied many of them on short tenure, and the landlord is look ing for an opportunity to elevate the rent.
 People in business are forced to va. cate in the middle of winter on q short notice because of more advan- tageous offers. Strangers arriving in the city with money to invest are turned away because of prohibitive prices asked Meanwhile the prop erty stands vacant or what is worse supports in many instances worth less shacks that hardly bring in rent enough to pay the meager tax levy.
 Several choice locations now vacant are held in the clutches of the mis- erable probate laws which prevent settlement of the estate or improve ment of the property; others are en- cumbered with debris and an eyesore to the public.
 This condition must be changed" said a man who has done much for Juneau. "or someday the town will awake and find rival business sec. tion on Gastineau channel. People ar. irving here with money to invest, he said, must be given an opportun' ity-the town must prepare to han dle the business that is coming to this vicinity or the business will go else where"
 Business Section is Dull.
 There are only two buildings of any importance that have been con structed in the business section lr the past few months and both oi these are to be places of amusement People arriving in the city have great ! difficulty in securing even temporary , quarters meantime mythical hotel: , are in process of erection all ovel the city.
