feature of last evenings proceed
ings in the trial Of Waverly Blanks
for the killing OF George w. Nunnally
was the testimony OF Dr. IL. G. Leigh.
the coroner, who visited the scene Of
the tragedy. viewed the body of the
dead engineer. took note Of the sur
roundings. and subsequently held an
autopsy on the body. The ball which
caused almost instant death cut the
aorta. shipped of piece of the peri
cardial sac and touched the spinal
column. The defendants plea of not
guilty is based on his claim from the
very first that after he had been shot
by Nunnally the latter shot and killed
himself. Based upon his experience OF
many years with cases of suicide. by
virtue of his office as coroner. DR.. Leigh
expressed and reiterated the opinion
that Nunnally did not shoot himself.
The position of the body. the charac-
ter of the wound, the position of the
pistol. lying two feet away from the
shoulder-all combined to preclude the
possibility of suicide. Such might pos
sibly have been the case, but If so it
was one of rare exception. DR.. Leigh
further stated that Blanks's wound
was caused by a ball entering the left
side above the waistline, ranging
downward. striking the hip bone. which
caused it's DETECTION upward. The ball
did not penetrate the abdomen. DR..
Leigh stated that Blanks denied to
him on the night OF the shooting that
he had a pistol, saying that he was
not compelled to answer questions
asked by the coroner.
The crowd in the courtroom yester-
day remained until adjournment last
night Among those present were the
wife and children Of the accused, and
many friends of both men. The crowd
in the courtroom to-day was larger
than that of yesterday. The first wit
ness for the prosecution was DR. j.
Boiling Jones, called as an expert.
He corroborated DR.. Leigh's statement
that IT was impossible for NunnaiIy
TO have fired the pistol shot which
killed him. The pistol could not have
! fallen where it was found.
The prosecution rested it's case with
the testimony OF Chief Of Police Rag
land Captain Ragland stated that he
went TO Nunnelly's room on the night
OF the shooting and saw the dead body
of Nunnany lying on the bed He also
testified TO the finding of one pistol
ball in Nunnaliy's bed. and another on
the washstand In the room The CHER

Leigh and Elanks at the hospital. In

Three others Mentioned.
Samuel l.. Kelley doomed up yester-
day ms a candidate with considerable
hacking. The name Of James L. Can
non had been most prominently men
toned, although his friends stated that

presented Itself
IT Is not certain that the name of
a. Beirne Blair will be offered in com
mittee. although it WAS expected that
he would have been candidate In the
event of n primary.
Mr.. Kelley, who Is well-known
lawyer and 4 former member Of the
House of Delegates, has been urged to
fight for the nomination, although
members of the city committee said
that his nomination might be unfortu-
nate and unwise. in view of the fact
that he has appeared before the Gen
eral Assembly as the paid attorney OF
the Liquor Dealers Association, when
the enabling act will be the biggest
question up for consideration.
