The attorneys are now arguing the case and when through will have consumed six hours of time graHked them by the court Two new wit nesses were introduced into tho case by the defense. The first one was Foster Alexander, who swore that he came tc Greenville on the morning Jake Crenshaw is supposed to have left this city on the same train that the negro claimed he left.
 He stated that he went immedi- ately to the court house and there found Sheriff Murphy at his desk using the long distance telephone. sheriff Murphy had previously tes- tifed that he was at the station and did not seq the negro leave. Alex ander claimed that he came here on Train No. ? from Chapman and the state charged that this train did not not stop at that point.
 The defense then introduced the ticket agent of the local station, #. k f4uggns, who testified that Chapman was a flag stop. The state inteoduced the sheriffss evidence in an effort to tear down the plea of an alibi by the defense ~4
 There is a division of opinion az 10 che guilt and Innocence of Che de- fendant among people in this sec ton. There are many who believe that the heinous crime was perpe- trated by party of parties other than Jake Crenshaw.

 1t was reported here that Dempsey and Jack Kearns, his manager, were expected to arrive in San Francisco today and efforts to verify the report, that offers had been made for tue bout In Paris were unsuccessful.
 Immediately after Siki's victory over Carpenter three New York promoters cabled to Paris in an eff fort to obtain a contract with him to appear here, and Rickard had emerged apparently successful.
