Stormy Objection
to Own Witness Is
Made by Prosecutor

Butte, June 7.-(By The Associ-
ated Press STORMY objection was
entered by the state to testimony of
one of it's own witnesses Wednesday
in the trial of John Keel at Virginia
City, charged with the murder Of
James Grant last year, according to a
dispatch to the Butte Miner. The
jury disagreed in the first trial.
Wednesday Mrs. A. H. Jones on the
stand said Keel declared after the
shooting, Il killed him l had to
do it."
County Attorney e. P. Reid on
cross-examination sought to bring out
that the witness had not testified to
this at the inquest at the previous
trial. She admitted forgetting it at
the inquest, but said she later told
the prosecutor of it, but he passed it
over as immaterial
County Attorney Reid later took the
stand and denied any conversation with
the witness on this point, and sought
to have it stricken from the record.
The court took the matter under ad-
visement.
The state rested Wednesday and the
defense began introduction of testi-
mony. A plea of self-defense is
Indicated
