FELTS AGAIN UNDER
FIRE IN TESTIMONY
Witness Asserts Detective
Sent First Shot When
Fight Developed.
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated i're5s.
WILLIAMSON. W. Va, March e.
Further testimony in support of the
defense's contention that Albert G.
Felts fired the first shot Of the Mate
wan street fight last May was given
today. When the trial of seventeen
Matewan residents, in connection
with the death of Felts, who fell
mortally wounded during the shoot
ing, was resumed this morning, n.
II. Atwood took the stand.
Atwood testified that he saw the
fight start. Felts. he said. was talk
ing to Mayor Testerman about war
rant the detective had for the arrest
of Sid Hatfield, town police chief, and
now one of the defendants on trial
Atwood told the jury he heard the
mayor tell Felts the warrant was
bogus" but that the chief would
to that. Atwood continued. and testi
fed that Felts said Hatfield could not
give bail and would have to go to
Bluefield with him.
Witness Story OF Firing.
Might as well have that warrant
written on gingerbread" Atwood tes-
titled he heard a bystander remark.
A laugh followed, witness said, add
ing that Felts arose on his tiptoes
ana nOOOeO MS hedQ 10 a party OF
Baldwin Felts private detectives, of
which he was the leader. When he
again settled on his heels, Atwood
told the jury. he saw Felts fire into the
hardware store. Atwood told Of enter
ing the store soon thereafter and of
finding Isaac Brewer lying wounded on
the floor.
Before the battle ended seven pri-
vate detectives and three residents,
including the mayor, had fallen, NOR
tally wounded. Earlier in the day
the Baldwin Felts operatives had
evicted striking miners families from
Stone Mountain Coal Company houses.
Among Those Indicted.
Atwood was one of the men origi-
nally indicted by the grand jury in con-
nection with Felts' death, but the case
against him later was dismissed by
the prosecution. Brewer also was an
original defendant. but his case was
dismissed and he appeared as wit
ness for the state.
On cross-examination. the prosecu-
ton drew from Atwood a statement
that he and one or two other men had
gone to Cincinnati last August to pur-
chase rifles. When asked whether the
purchase money had been furnished
by Fred Mooney. United Mine
workers official, Atwood replied that
it had not, adding that he never saw
Mooney give money to any one.
