"Perhajis a tuinute. possibly two." "t!o on." ' "Just after ttie ship's bell stru -k six o'clock. The main cabin was dark. There was a light in the chart rootu. from the binnacle light I felt my way to Mr. Null's rootu. I heard hiui breath ing. His door was open. 1 struck a mutch ami looked at liitn. He had j stopped breathing." "What was the state of his bunk?" "Disordered—horrible. He was ai most hacked to pieces." "Go oil." "I ran l>ack aud sot my revolver. 1 thought there had beeu a mutiny"— "Confine yourself to what you saw aud did. The court is not interested in what you thought." "1 am only trying to exj-'ain what 1 did. I ran back to the storeroom and pot tnv revolver and ran back through the chart room to the after companion, which had a hood. 1 thought that if any one was lying in ambush the hood would protect me until t cquld get to the deck. 1 told the helmsman what had happened, and ran forward. Mr. Singleton was on the forecastle head. We went below together and found the captain lying at the foot of the for ward companion, also dead." "At this time had you called the owner of the ship';" "No. 1 called him then But I could not rouse him." | "Explain what you mean by that." "He had been drinking." There followed a furious wrangle over this point, but the prosecuting attorney succeeded in having question . aud answer stand. "What did you do next?" "the mate had called the crew. I wakeued Mrs. Turner. Miss I.ee and j Mrs. Johns and then went to the chart room to .all the women there. The door w:is opri) an inch or so. I iv | i«l lie go?" "No " "What comment did Mr Singletou uißk^v "lie said he hoped the captain would come. He wanted a chance to get at him." "What happened after that?" "The captain came down and order ed the mate on deck. Mr. Vail and the captain got Mr. Turner to his room." "How do you know that'.'" "1 opened my door." "What then?" "Karen came down at 12:30. We went to bed. At ten minutes to 3 the 1 f-Ti I « "Was what you saw a figure?" I'ell ran;; for Karen. She got up and put on a wrapper and slippers. She was grumbling and I told her to put out the light and let me sleep. As she ■ opened the door she screamed and fell back ou the Boor. Something struck I uie on the shoulder, and 1 fainted. 1 | learned later it was the ax." "Did you hear any sound outside be- ' fore you opened the door?" "A curious chopping sound. I spoke i'f it to her. It cauie from the chart room." "When the girl fell back into the room did yon see any one beyond her?" "I saw something—l couldn't say just tfhat." "Was what you saw a figure?"

"Just about, perhaps." "Think of something that it resem bled. This is imiiortant. Mrs. Sloan*;. You must make an' effort." "1 think it looked most like a foun tain." Even the jury laughed at this, and yet. after ail, Mrs. Sloaue was right— or nearly so. "That is curious. How did it resem ble a fountain?" "Perhaps I should have said a foun tain in moonlight—white and misty and—and flowing." "And yet. this curious shaped object threw the ax at you. didn't it?" There was an objection to the form of this question, but the court over ruled it. "I did not say it threw the ax. I did not see it thrown. I felt it." "Did you know the first mate. Single- i ton. before you met on the Ella?"' "Yes. sir." "Where?" "We were on the same vessel two years ago. the American, for Ber muda." "Were you friends?" "Yes." very low. "Were you engaged to marry him at one time?'' "Yes " "Why did you break it off?" "We differed about a good many things " After a long battle the prosecuting attorney was allowed to show that fol lowing the breaking off of her relations with Singleton she bad been a witness against him in an assault and battery ease and had testified to his violence of temper The dispute took so long that there was only time for her cross examination. The effect of the evi dence so far was distinctly bad for Singleton. His attorney, a young and intelligent Jew, cross examined Mrs. Sloaue. Attorney For the Defense —Did you ever write a letter to the defendant Mrs. Sloane. threatening him if he did not marry you? "1 do uot recall such a letter." "Is this letter in your writing?" "I think so. Yes." "Mrs. Sloane. you testify that you 'opened your door and saw' Mr. Vail and the captain taking Mr. Turner to his room. Is this correct?" "Yes."
