TESTIMONY WAS IN DIRECT CONFLICT COMMONWEALTH'S WITNESSES CONTRADICT ONE ANOTHER. Prosecution in the Keller Murder Case Encounters n Surprise Party. Belief That Some of the Witnesses Havo Been Made to See Things Differently from the Manner in Which They at First Viewed Them Some Say Positively That Meyer Offered no Violence. Direct conflict of te.stliminy on the immt Important point In the cime by tho commonwealth's own vltiics3CH was tlio leatnrc of the second day nf the Keller mutdor tilnl. During the mornlnp rcbhIoh every oyo witness of the tiagedy stated posl tlely that no blows were struck, and that lleyer'H Roneinl conduct wns not of a menacing character. In the nftei noon, however, It was Just nbout the opposite. Almost every witness called after dinner admitted on croFH-oxam-luntlon that Meyer was seen to assault Keller, and several of them went so far as to say that Keller, befoie Hi lug, pushed Meyer away from him several tlmei and also made motions as If warding off a blow. Dlstilct Attorney Jones was sorely disappointed and not a little chagrined at this outcome and Intimated luoadly several times by questions and cum meats that he wns of the opinion that Ills wltiu'shes had been made to see tiling In u different light fiom that In which they viewed them at tho time when their statements weie taken In the propaiatlon of the commonwealth's chip. Judge Udwaids on one occasion Indi cated he was nlso inclined to this be lief, going so for as to cnutlon a wit ness against withholding nny part of ber testimony, and nlterwards criticis ing her conduct on the stnnd. The commonwealth's story of the killing as outlined by District Attor ney Jones In his opening and detailed by the wltnes-ses Is substantially as follows: Keller and Meyer were -voting men of about the same ape. tvvcntv four. lived In adjacent houses In Little i:imlnnd, and up to a shoit time pie Ious to the tiagedy were friends, and It might be said companions. Hellg lotis differences .spuing up between them, and what was, at (list, coolness finally giew Into hatred. HOArtDlHi WITH 11KNDKR. Meer boaided with '. A. llender and was engaged to many his daugh ter, I'hllopenn. The Mender property is just within the city line. Keller, with his wife, weie co-tenants with a Davis family of a houxe across the line In Dunmoie boiough. and xepniat ed fiom the Mender house by an uneii ilosed field on which a chapel stands. Mejerand his prospective father-ln-law Jointly owned a lot of fancy pljr eons. On the morning of the .Sunday on which the tragedy occ lined four or the of the pigeons Hew acioss to the Keller piemises and while pecking1 ut the garden truck weie shot and killed by Keller. When Mender beard of this he went over to Keller and nsked him to give over the dead pigeons. Keller, In surly tones, reused. At noon, when Mecr came home to dinner he learned of the occurrence of the nioining, and, without waiting to puitake of dinner, went nctovs lots to Keller's, vowing he would get the pig eons. Miss Mendei followed him. Them was an exchange of angiy words, and, nicoidlng to .tlss Mender's testimony. Keller went Into the house, te-appeareil a moment later at an upstahs win dow and, thrusting out a double-bar-leled gun, said- "You get out of thete now, or I'll chop both of you." The defense, on cross-examination, at this Juncttne ttied to bilng out th.it Keller letieated into the house to get away fiom Meyer, and that the only thing did or s.ild at the window was to tell Meyer In- lould have the pigeons If he would come by way of the gate to get them It was also paitly elicited that Ofllcer Long, of Diinnioie. hap pened that wav. and heating the al teuation compelled Meyer to retain to bis boarding house tinder pain of su rest. STAMTKD TOWAIIP.S Dl'XMOKi:. Shoitly after ' o'clock Keller left his house and Matted tovvimlB Dunmute. Mejer followed a moment later anil caught up with Keller on the Hiie and Wyoming Vulley lalliond. They fil tered Into a ciuanel at once, and walk ing down the tiack, Kellei slltilul.v in the lead, kept up an eNchange of loud and angry words. Keller, all the wit nesses kiv, kept In advance of llt-yei and continued walking, as If not wish ing to have Meyer come able.ist of him. The defense tiled to make It ap pear that he was tivlng to get awuy. and that Meyer pet stated In tagging after him. but the witnesses all denied that the pair weie walking tapidly Wliat immediately pieceded the shooting no one but Keller (.in tell, and his story Is yet to come. John M. Schuler, who heaid the iuaticllng and stood off about thtee bundled feet talk ing to a Mr. Koehler, and watching tho two men, swore positively that Meyer did not offer to strike a blow, Alonzo Pike, aged 11 yeais, Joe Piice, nged 1), and Geoige Haus, aged It, who saw the affair fiom a distanco of less than two bundled feet, bay there were no blows exchanged. They oveiheaul Clio of the pair teiuaiU: "I don't have to use a pistol on you, 1 can fight you fulr-ftat." The Hulls boy said positive ly that It was Meyer who uttcied this exclamation. Shoitly after this the shooting took place. Every witness, except one, was ceitaln that Keller filed one shot. paused for a moment ami then fired other shots In rapid succession. Neatly all the witnesses said four shots were f'ed, and tlioso who had counted only three were not positive but that they night bo mistaken. STAGGERED UACKWAIU). At tho first shot Mejer btaggcred backward While he was reeling the tluee other shots were fired. He fell at tlio fourth shot and Keller then teased f.r'ng. After falling, his body lolled down the lailroad embankment as far as a slanting path, where II resit or1 on Us side, the head about ten Inches higher than the feet. Death was almost instantaneous. Iliu testimony uf Schuler and tho thteo boys was corroborated by three other eye witnesses, Catheilno una Cnrolino Pilger and Mie. Ycttn Kiutsch. The former two were on tholr way to Nay Aug Pat I? and wero In close proximity to tho men when tho shooting occurred. They watched them going down the track and wero with in a couple of hundred fcot of them when tho shots were fired. They saw no blows struck or anything savoring of tin astuult on Meyer's part. Mrs. KrotBch was standing on a porch neitr by and saw the whole proceeding, but Is posltlvu no violence was ofteted'by Meyer. foioner I. Longsttect tnsllfled ns to the wounds. One bullet grazed the left side. Another passed through the upper pntt of tlfo left nrm ntul flat tened Itself ngnlnst tho fifth lib. An other passed between the thlid and font 111 libs, cut a large blood vessel near the heart passed through the right lung and lodged In the right nrm. The other struck the back of th" Jaw. passed through the neck and landed against the splnnl column. Three of tho bullets were found nnd weie pio dltced by the coionrr. On cross-cxainlnatlon the coroner slid In answer to Mr. Scrngg's ques tion thru It was Impossible to tell from tho wounds tho order In which the shots weie llrcd. THE FIRST WITNESS. P.ivtnn Swingle was the fhst witness to say that Meyer had assaulted Kel ler. He Is a resident of the neighbor hood nnd snw the whole nffnlr from beginning to end. Tne- deceased fol lowed Keller nnd lan up tho railroad embankment to head him off, he tnlil. The two walked along for about olio hundred feet talking loud and In an gry touts. Keller appeared to be mak ing an effort to keep nwny from Meyer and several limes when he crossed from one side of the track to the other Meyer followed him. The deceased, ho alleged, made a pass nt Keller and Kel ler then llrMl. Meyer was undeterred by this and made nn effort to get at Keller. The lattet then fuvd threo more shots. Officer t'lcd Meaver, who arrested Keller, testllP'd that he met tho de fendant coming up Potter sticet In company with his father. On the np pioach of the olllccr Keller unloosed a belt from about his waist which sup ported tho holster containing his re volver, nnd handing it to the ofllcer gave himself up saying he wanted pro tection. The witness Inspected the clothing of the deceased but found no weapons. Ofllcer Ciecigo DIeikes. who was giv en possession of the revolver, testllled to Inning received It fiom Ofl'cer P.oaver nnd of having tinned It over to the district attorney. The district attorney thin offeieil the icvolvcr in evidence. It is n five-chamber, .1S callbre weapon, with u pearl handle When taken from Keller all live of Its chambers woo loaded. Oenaro Gennello and his cocsln. Mis. Gennello, saw the shooting fiom the por b of their teMdenee. They did not see any blows struck. STAI.MERG'S STORY. Milton Stalbeig, who lives neat by, heaid the shots and looked In the dl U'ctlon of the -shooting in time to siv Meff fall. He tan up to the -ceno and heaid Keller admit that be did the d.eil. Th" dlstilct attorney Hied to elicit from him that he had heaid Kel ler say "I don t cue If the IS dead." but Mr. Stalbeig denied having heaid any .nih lemark Mr. Jones evinied conMderabl' dis appointment and aftet futile efforts to bilng out that some such lematk bad been made by Keller In Stalbetg's hear ing, nsKed the witness If it wasn't a, fact that somebody bad been talking to him nbout the late lecently. Mr. Serngg objected to the piosecutlou at tempting to discredit lt- own witness and a long dlscu-'slon ensued, Mr. Jones loutending that this v as the only wuy to ileal with adveise witness es, and Mr. Scmgg contending that the question was impioptr fut the reason noted above. Mr. Jones allowed the witness to come clown and called Mis. Stalbeig, bis wife. She saw Mr. Slim ier, sin- said, st.ut 1o go down t' where Me.vei's body lay and lizard Keller t.y "Don't you go down there to him oi you'll get the same dose." She ilenled having heaul Keller smy anything else. Mr. Jones was not satlsliel with her testimony and htiove to bilng out that she had heard Keller say later on to the ciowd that ho didn't caie if the was dead, as it Is alleg ed she told the county detective when he was woiklng up the case. After some hesitancy and much blushing she answeifd Ustllv "No, sir, I heaid nothing else." Ji'DUE CAPTIONED HER. While she wai hesitating Judge Ed wards cautioned her u tell all she knew saving "witnesses aie sworn to tell the Whole until" .Mm. Stolberg persisted that she bad heaid nothing else. Mr. Joi'es made an ofler to show that vbe had told the county detective of other rental ks made bv Keller, but Judge Edwards mid he could not al low It. He leniaiked to the attorneys that he himself did not like the manner cf the witness. H is only f ilr to stale that Mis. Stolbeig'r nervousness could hive resulted fiom her lenllzatlon of the fact that the veinelty of her evi dence was questioned. A. Stelntnetz saw Mevei hasten up the embankment to head oft Keller. He swore Keller pushed Meyer nwny from him and that ho saw Keller's aim go up as If to waul olf a blow, Just lU'i'vioite to the rhootlng. Charles dayman ilo saw all this and further averred that after tho lirst .hot Meyer kept on going towauls Kel ler. Lemuel Jones swoie he haw the de ceased give Keller a push just before the lirst shot was fired and after the shot Meyer again went at Keller. Ho also said that Keller acted as if try ing to elude Meyer and tbut several times ho walked to the opposite side of th railioad onlv to be followed by Meyer. This closed the testimony for the day.
