TESTIMONY IN
EASTLAKECASE
ISCONCLUDED
EastIake is Recalled to Stand
But His Testimony
Is Unimportant
CASE TO JURY TODAY
Eastlake is Asked UnimpOrtant Cues
tions and Then Excused by Both
Sides-Defense Begins Evidence.

Montross, Va, May 3.-All the
evidence collected by the attorneys
for both the defense and the pros
ecution IN the trial of Sarah Eupho-
MIA Knox, charged with the murder
of Mrs. Margaret L. Eastlake, will
be presented to the jury hearing the
case by noon today. Instructions were
prepared this morning and argument
will be begun this afternoon The
Jury may get the case this evening.
After opening an hour late, owing
to the hardness of an attorney, the
session yesterday dragged along to
an uninteresting finish. Most Of
the evidence introduced was of a
corroborative nature and nothing
startling was brought out.
Miss Florence A. Hunt, a member
of the Alumni Association of Johns
Hopkins Hospital. Baltimore, and
Mrs Skipwith Willer Athey, wife OF
a prominent Baltimore physician,
took the stand today as character
witnesses for the accused woman.
They declared Miss Knox's reputa-
ton is excellent. 1t was also
brought out lIldl tHC JOllHo AiVbh4i1
Nurses Association had contributed
81 900 to help finance Miss Knox's
defense
The defense placed on the stand c.

Eastlake with hatchet. part of
which was painted color similar
to that of the weapon alleged to
have been used by Mrs. Eastlake's
murderer. Mr. Heisckes declared
EastIake denied chargs of illicit rela-
tions with Miss Knox when he was
questioned at a meeting Of the vestry
of st Mary's Episcopal Church.
Eastlake was a vestryman, Sunday
School teacher. and suDerintendent
of the Sunday School, the witness
said.

Amid a blaze Of glory The Greater
Alexandria Trade Exhibit was opened
at the armory last night Promptly at
1880 o'clock the lights were flashed on
bv Mayor J. NJ. Duncan and from that
minute till the closing hour the hall
was packed with spectators. It is es-
timated that fully 5000 persons during
the evening visited the exhibit.
That the exhibit is a success is but
expressing it mildly-The affair is
the first or its character ever given
in Alexandria and the various booths
are scenes of beauty. They are artis-
tically and elaborately decorated and
the displays of the wares sold by the
participating exhibitors are up to the
minute in every respect, r. +. knight
President of the Chamber Of Com
merce delivered an address.
Absolutely nothing has been left un-
done by the merchants to make the
affair a grand success and that Is
what it is. Visitors carefully went
over the various booths and inspected
the displays expressed themselves as
we'll pleased with all of the displays.
To 90 into an individual descriDt-
ion Of the various articles carried by
the participating merchants would
take columns. However, it can be
safely said that nothing has been lett
undone and nothing omitted from
these displays and the last word m
the different lines is on display. In
STYLES the latest creations are there.
With myriads of tincy incandescent
tights strung in festoons across
the hall and with hun
dreds of coored lights Illuminating
the hall and with flags and bunting
covering the ceiling and sidewalks of
the hall the building presented fairy
land scene.
Just as the lights were switched on
the Citizens Band which during the
evening furnished the music, enliven-
ed the occasion with popular selec-
ton. The various booths are scat
tered at the four sides of the hall and
in the center is the automobile dis
play numbering ten of the newest
models of cars for which the particl-
pating merchants are agents.
Included in the EXHIBITS are ladies'
gowns, mems and boys clothing, hard
ware, electrical equipment, furniture,
host of other things too numerous
soft drinks pretzels shoes, flowers, and
host of other things too numerous
to mention.
All during the evening the crowd
continued to increase and at times 1t
was impossible for all to gain admls-
sion to the armory.
The unanimous opinion of ali who
attended was that the affair was one
of the most successful of its character
ever attempted in Alexandria and the
display made by the merchants COM
pares favorably with any other
given by the merchants of any other
city in the country and AleXandrians
may feel proud Of the wonderful dis
play.
During the evening things were
made lively, and the display of living
models at Bendheim's booth. IRWIN
