was some time before they were
on duty again. In the meantime.
the courtroom was dimly lighted

When court convened, Attorney
Mcnamara made the opening arHu-
ment for the defense. He argued
from the evidence that the defend.
ant was clearly within the Law when
he fired the shot that caused 1.-THE
death Of VIM. Billings. He was
followed by Attorney Dysart who
made a strong plea for The life and
liberty Of the defendant. Deputy
District Attorney Cantwell followed
with the closing argument. He
made a strong plea fer the enforce
ment of the law and the protection
of society. He urged the jury to
do its duty and find a verdict of
guilty Of murder in the first de-
gree. Mr.. Cantveli closed ut 1926
and a minute later the jury filed
into the jury room to consider the
evidence and agree upon a verdict.
About IL o'clockthe jury notified
the officers that a verdict had been
agreed upon and as soon as court
could convene, the jury was brought
in and a verdict of murder in the
first degree with the penalty fixed
at life imprisonment was read and
recorded.
The verdict was a great surprise
to the defendant and his attorneys
and the defendant plainly showed
that he realized its full import.
The defense gave notice Of mo-

lhe-defense in the Huber case
is moving along slowly. After
the recess yesterday afternoon. At
torney DysaIt made a brief open.
ing statement in which he told the
Jury that the defense would prove
a clear case Of self-defense.
George Anderson, a colored gen.
tleman from Mountain City, was
the first witness. He testified that
on the day of the killing he met
Billings about 8 or 4 o'clock in the
afternoon and that Billings was
looking for Huber. He and Bill
inEs went to Huber's house, walked
through it but did not find Huber.
Billings then went to Huber's barn
and Anderson followed him part
way. Billings went into the barn
and Anderson went back to the
house to attend to a chicken he
left frying on the stove. After at.
tending to the chicken, Anderson
went within a few feet of the barr
and stopped. He heard a noise
like a "thump" but would moi
wear that the noise was made BY
Billings kicking Huber because
he did not see what vas going or
in the barn. He also heard numb
ling" but did not know what wa.
SAID. He saw Billings hit Huber
in the mouth and on the left cheek
and saw the blood fly from the
blow in the mouth and saw it rur
down Huber's left cheek. He sale
Billings had hold Of Jerry and wa!
showing and pulling him along.
During Anderson's evidence, HI
was excused and Or. West wa.
called. He testified about examin.
ing Hnber's wounds after he came
to Elko and described them to the
jury. He found the upper lip cut
and two scratches on the left cheek
He could not tell what made the
wound but thought it possible they
were made with a shovel.
At the conclusion Of DR.. Vest
evidence, Anderson was recalled
and Mr.. Gedney began cross exam
ming him. The synopsis of his evi
dcne given above was caught from
his cross-examination last evening
He vas still on the stand whel
court adjourned.
Anderson's cross examination
was resumed this morning and wa
not concluded when the noon re
cess was taken. His evidence seem.
to be sUmewhat different from wha,
it was on the former trial, but OF
the main facts it is practically thu
same. He is a very ignorant maj
but seems to be trying to tell fact
as he saw and heard them
