In tho Mit chell murder case tho defendant was call ed, She arose slowly from her chair and walked deliberately to tho witness stand. She was not sworn and answered the questions of Gen. Peters in a low but firm voice. She snld she had known Freda as long as she could remember. She visited her at Gold Dust twice. The last time sho remained two weeks. She said she knew of nothing unpleasnnt between her and Mrs. Volkmar. She saw Ashley Rosello twice. She thought he was In love with Freda Ward. She knew tho way Freda spoke of him that they were engaged. "I didn't want Freda to marry any voung man, but wanted her myself." The witness began to cry and continued, "Freda winked at me near the Custom Houso. That wink, with tho right eye," said she, "meant 'I love you.' "LiUlo snld to me as I started to kill Freda, 'Where are you going!' I replied I wanted see Freda once more." Hero the witness burst out crying again. Who Gen. Peters asked that Alice bo placed on the stand the defenco made the objection that there was no precedent for such action. A hot argument ensued, and Gen. Wright made an eloquent plea to save the family from tho humiliation of Alico making nn exhibition of herself on the stand. After she had testified Gen. Peters stated that tile State had nothing to offer. Gen. Wright said the defense was willing to submit tho cose without argument and Gen. Peters, after a moment's conversation with some of tho junior counsel, said ho did not care to arguo the case on account of the proceed ings iu the Federal Court at Naslivillo in the H. Clay King murder case, in which Gen. Peters, Gen. Wright and Col. Guntt represented tho State. Judge Duboso will not charge the jury until to-morrow. Miss Mitchell was taken back to tho jail, and as she left the courtroom sho smilod ami chatted with her father and the uttornoys SEVERE STORM AT YORK, PA.
