 The 23-year-old Chilean heiress re- iterated her version of the tragedy of the night of August at the De Salles Long Island home in the same dispas- sionate manner in which she testified yesterday. Her attitude of complete self possession was a subject of com ment among the spectators who crowd ed the trial chamber.
 Once, when his questioning had been proceeding in a rather tedious vein for some minutes the district attorney veered unexpectedly and in an abrput tone. asked:
 When did you first know you had shot your husband?"
 The question failed of it's evident purpose of taking the witness unawares for she looked steadily at the prosecu- tor deliberated for some seconds and finally answered slowly:
 ''Why-Dr. Wight told me-

Dear Jack: want to tell you that I am really sorry for having made you so unhappy. That I was not able to make you a good wife will ever be a regret to me. l hope from the bottom of my heart that you will find the happiness that is your due"
 De Saulles made me believe that was always at fault" said the de- fendant, in explaining her reason for writing this letter. A humorous situation enlivened the proceedings when, just prior to the | noon recess a juror yawned so loudly that District Attorney Weeks turned to Justice Manning and said The jury seems to be tired" You cant blame the jury-any one would be tried" said Mrs. De Saulles in atone so low the remark barely | reached the ears of the attorney and | the justice.

 I'm asking You" urged Weeks.
 Why, it was in court last week. when I heard Marshall Ward testify" said the defendant finally.
 Marshall Ward was an intimate friend of De Saulles and was called by the prosecution as a witness last week.
 Of the actual shooting, Mrs De SStll- les maintained her claim that she could recall nothing-that her memory ut terly failed to serve her in relation to what happened after her divorced hus- band told her she could not have her son. She clung to her previous asser- tion that not until her awakening in the Nassau county jail some days later did she again become rational.
 With Justice David F. Manning's permission, the district attorney sought to assist the witness by asking whether she did not remember having told officers who arrested her that they would find the revolver with which she did the shooting lying near a hat rack in the hall of the De Saulles home; that the following morning she wrote Q check for $1000 with which to bail out her maid, Suzanna Monteau, who had been held as a material witness and that soon after the shooting, she thought of such things as lawyers, maids and money
 On none of these points, however, was the witness able to amplify her story, she declared.
 Letters written by Mrs. De Saulles to her husband, during the time she alleges he was "indifferently neglect ful,' and unfaithful to her were read into the record by District Attorney Weeks dIIriup inc croeC +io,, Endearing phrases and warm profes- sions of love contained in them were emphasized by the lawyer as indicat- ing that Mrs. De Saulles' alleged marital differences did not weigh so heavily upon her as she claimed in her direct testimony.
