bury, testified that Means, his wife and Mrs. King spent the night of August IS at that hotel Neither side went into the reason for introduction of this phase of the case.
 Capt. w. S Bingham testified that as friend of Means he had frequently taken automobile rides with members of the Means family, on which Mrs King accompanied them and had several times seen Mrs. King fire a pistol. He was a member of the party on the trip on which Mrs. King met death, but said he was about 140 yards distant from her when the fatal shot was fired. Gaston Means called to him, he said, and when he ran back Means told him Mrs. King had shot herself accidentally He said that when he was called back from his walk by Gaston Means and found Mrs King dead he called Ernest Fury, the negro chauf- feur, but Fury was not in sight and did not respond for few minutes. No one else was in sight.
 It had been indicated that the state would seek to establish by Bingham that no persons other than those in the party of target shooters was present. This was understood to have been done because Of an anonymous letter to a New York newspaper saying the writer had wit messed the death of Mrs. King.

Mrs. King was shot, declared in his tes- timony that he heard two shots that night about the time Mrs. King was killed.
 An automobile dashed down to the spring soon after the first shot, he said. Dry was asked about what time of night 1t was and about how much light there was around at that time. The moon was about half to an hour high" he said. but it was a hazy night and about as dark as 1t ever gets to be"
 The exact time of the woman's death which was sometime after 6;30. has never been established to the joint satisfaction of both sides and neither has the amount of light from the moon which Captain Bingham said was sufficient to have allowed him to kill a rabbit. Dr. Schultze's testimony followed and court then adjourned.
