Baltimore, March 10.--At the first ses-
zion tonight of the coroner's inquest into
the deaths resulting from the blowing
up on Friday of the dynamite ship Alum
Chine, A. C. Blum, sales agent of the
company that manufactured the dyna-
mite, testified that the company did
not manufacture percussion caps.
One of the theories advanced in con-
nection with the charges Coroner Russell
says several stevedores made to him, is
that William Bomhardt, assistant fore
man of the stevedores. stuck bale hook
into a box containing percussion caps,
which exploded and set fire to the ship.
Adfred Mains, second mate of the Alum
Chine. testified that he had spoken to
the foreman of the careless way the
stevedores were handling boxes of dyna-
mite. He said he sent stevedore ashore
because he was handling the boxes
like bales of cotton,
The inquest probably will extend till
the end of the week.

To their last reception the president

Hundreds of applications for tickets

Given BY Frederick f..

Aiken s. c., Feb. 6-With the e1.

struction of its circumstantial case
against Frederick o. Beach, promi'
nent New Yorker. charged with at.
tacking his wife. Two or three min

duced yet today.
Mrs. Beach on Stand.
Mrs. Beach took the stand today to
testify that it was negro and not
her husband who slashed her throat
at the Beach winter home here last
February. .-..
Not one of the witnesses whose evi.
dence consumed the first day of the
trial could give details Of the assault.
Four members of the Wyman family
living across the street, told Of
screams from the Beach premises
about $3.50 o'clock on the night Of Feb.
rs. Two Of them testified that the
echo of the last scream was followed
by loud rapping on door and the
sound of q mans voice exclaiming:

eeach's Story Repeated.
Through DR.. Marion Wyman, the de-
tense brought out the fact that Beach
had explained to him the next day that
after finding his wife Frustrated, the
victim of a negro ,assailant, and after
carrying her into the house he had
gone out in search of the man. Re-
turning unsuccessful, Beach told them
he had knocked on the door to be ad.
mitted. !.
DR.. Wyman and his father, Dr. Has
tings Wyman, the first outside the
Beach household to see Mrs. Beach
after she had been wounded, stated on
cross-examination that the attitude OF
Beach and his wife toward each other
was one of affection. They reached
the room into which Mrs. Beach had
been carried while blood was stream.
ing from a wound under the right ear
and Beach told them the story he has
since reiterated-that his wife was at.
tackled in front of their cottage by
negro.
Try to Pick Flaws.
Every effort Of the prosecution ap-
peared to be directed at picking flaws
in Beach's story, rather than at sup.
porting his own contention that Beach
attacked his wife after he had failed
to overtake white man he was pur-
suing. i
Mrs. Beach was the most conspicu.
GUS figure in the court room. She sat
through the two long sessions taking
an occasional note from the testimony
and chatting with her husband and
friends. She and her husband were
almost the first ones to enter the court
room and the last to leave it.
A jury Of countrymen will decide
the guilt or innocence of the wealthy
New Yorker. Both sides expressed
confidence that the case would go to
the jury today.

Prosecutor Gunter took by consent
the testimony of Miss Lellah Wyman,

Miss Wyman, the daughter of a physi.

the Beach home, is alleged to have

assault.
Counsel for the defense waived Oh

port of Boydon Minis, a chemist, who
examined Beach's pocket knife. In his
report Minis said that in his opinion
several spots found on the broken
blade were blood corpuscles. Under
the law punishment for assault with
intent to kill is from 30 days to 10
years on the chain gang or in the state
