DEFENSE TO HAVE
INNING IN TRIAL
OF RU|zES TO-DAY
Judge Reynolds Announces
That Court viii Be Adjourn
ed at Noon Today Because
of Its Being Good Friday,


The state closed its case against
Narciso Ruiz, ST., and his son, Man
uel, shortly before o'clock yesterday
afternoon. Judge w. c. Heacock
their counsel, will begin the defense
this morning unless Judge II. r. Ray
nolds sustains motion for directed
verdict, which probably will be asked
ty the defense.
Court will adjourn at noon today
because of its being Good Friday
Judge Reynolds IN announcing his in
tention TO close court at noon said
because of the importance Of the case
be could not adjourn for the entire
day.
The states evidence yesterday
amounted to practically a repetition
of the testimony heard at the first
trial of the Ruizes at the September
term, which resulted in a hung jury
The defense at the first trial rested
chiefly on an alibi. Testimony was
introduced TO show that the elder
and his son We're at home at the time
Tsidro Baca was murdered,
w. A. Keleher appointed by the
court to defend Jose Medina. yester-
day filed motion asking for a new
trial Medina was convicted of muir
der in the first degree. one of the
grounds upon which the new trial is
asked is that Medina was not warned,
it said, that anything he might say
would be used against him. 1t is also
alleged that discriminating statements,
made by him, were not voluntary.
Some of the grounds are technical,
such as objections to the introduction
of certain evidence.
