1egdi IlIIS breaking about even Tor
the state and defense.
The Day of the Deaths.
William Fell, a workman in the
Saunders Fish house on Palafox
wharf, at the time of the murder of
the little girls, testified that on the
afternoon of June 81, the day of the
murder, Fudge came into the room in
which he was working on Palafox
wharf looking red in the face, with
blood-shot eyes and nervous "like a
man just getting over long drunk"
The defense attempted to bring out
that the nervous and excited condi-
ton might have been caused by the
exertion that Fudge put forth in as
sisting to catch large shark there
at the dock. Mr.. Fell testified how
ever, that to the best of his recol-
lection Fudge had come from the di-
rection Of town when he entered his
place, and that he knew this because
he was standing in the doorway and
saw Fudge as he came down Palafox
street onto the wharf.
Will Johnson, justice of the peace
and coroner, was strong witness for
the state. Mr.. johnson took Fudge
in custody after the hideous discovery
and said that while bringing Fudge
to town in buggy he had a CONVEX
sation with Fudge in which Fudge
said that there had not been anything
to eat in the house for several days,
and that the girls were probably de-
spondent over the prospects and sui
cided and added that he himself had
thought of suiciding.
Fudge Laughed.
Mr.. Johnson said that Fudge
laughed very much at joke that was
told on the way to town and that he
seemed to get more fun out of it than
anyone else in the party. The testi
mony given by Mr. Johnson about
measuring the distance of the bullet
wound on Tenney's breast to the tips
of her fingers and the distance from
the muzzle of the % rifle which
caused the death of the children, to
the trigger were intensely interest
| ing. He stated that the distance
! measured by tape measure from the
muzzle to the trigger of the rifle was
| "a inches and that the distance from
the wound on Tenney's breast to the
| tips of her fingers was but 20 inches.
Mr.. Laird asked which one of Ten
ney's arms did he measure, Mr.. john
son said the left, and Mr.. Laird then
demanded why it was that he meas
ured. the left instead of the right.
The explanation given by Mr.. John
son was about as follows: ''The bull
let entered Tenney's body on the left
side and came out on the right side
| just below the shoulder blade, and !
came to the conclusion that if Ten
ney had shot herself she must have
pulled the trigger with the left
| hand"
Defense Today on Stand.
Witnesses for the defense will be
put on the stand today. 1t is under
stood that four people from Nash
vile, Tennessee, who knew Fudge
when he lived in Nashville have ar
rived in the city and will take the
stand today as witnesses for the de-
tense.
| 1t is not expected that the hear
ing of witnesses will be concluded I'M
til late this afternoon and the argu-
ment will hardly get good start to-
day unless night session is held
and even then it is not probable that
the Jury will be heard from before
some time Monday.
