The testimony for the defense in the Cox case was contin ued throughout the whole otto-day.

Cox then asked are you go ing to sell out my interest m this lease?" Alston then replied: "Np; I am going to sell out General Gordons interest subjc 1 to yonr sub-lease." Cox said that was illriglit. On the day of th hnmicide. m the afternoon, Alston rtA f jked-witBfl8-lr -hia -oil tol.

That he said: "You are' a nice, great big rascal here with your knife open and I haven't got a piece of steel on me to try and force. me, to, terms.". Cox then said : "Go lartd arm y&ifrself and. I will wait for you," and "He is waiting for me now." Witness begged Alston to let him act as mediator and" stop the difficultv. Alston went out soon after! Witness followed, and found Alston and Murphy in the treasury; Alston with a pistol, revolving the- cylinder. He renewed his offer to mediate and Murphy joined in.

He went back to. hi office, and soon after Cox came in, saying : "I want to see you." Jlheie was a lady in the office, and Cor sat by thV window and called witness, who went to him and said: Ed, you ate -drank.1 Cox said : "Xo, I am not," and asked witness to go with him to the treasu rer's office. Witness asked what for, and Cox would not say, so witness re fused. Cox shddenly went tfutt withesS ; ' soon followed and fotiftd' Cbx and 'Al ston in the treasurer's office. y Witness testified to incidents of the fight sub stantially as Renfroe did, and as al ready reported. Last August' Cox and Alston had words in witness' office about Cox's contract with Gordon, which had been arranged bjr Alston. Cox told Alston if he went back on him in this business he would kill him, and called on witness to be a witness to the threat. Alston told Cox not to be afraid of him and to begin then. Wit ness calmed the quarrel and took both men home to dinner with him. They were as good friends as ever, and after dinner nursed each other's heads in their laps on the settees. Witness thought their relations friendly up to the time of the killing. Sams, who was-Cox's- Messenger to Alston on the day of the killing-, tesjti gedthat the message. Co sent was: "Tell Col. Alston wMC26see him at the barbershop." He testified that he did all he could to stop the diftteultys' As to the tragedy, upon all the essen tial points witness contradicted flatly the testimony of Renfroe, Melton and Nelms, and his own testimony before the coroner's jury. He was subjected to a terrible cross-examination, and his testimony made a bad impression on the public. Gov. Colquitt testified to having a conversation, a few moments before the homicide, with Alston, when Alston detailed to him the acts of Cox at the barber shop, as told to Xelms, and Alston said he; thought lie ought to take a double-barreted shot gun and kill Cox on sight, . Witness him; not to take too serious a view of it, and he (witness) would see what he could do to stop it. Hedidgoto his office and send Nelms to follow Cox and keep down the difficulty. , He saw Cox cross the street to the Capitol, with his hand at his pocket, as if on the pistol. Al ston said : "There goes Cox now, hunt ing me." Walters testified to the negotiations with Cox and Alston for the Gordon in terest and Cox's interest; agreed to take Gordon's for $4,000 cash, and Cox's for $1,500, but Alston sold to Howard. Cox did not like it, he thought. The ev idence for the defence was closed, and counsel said Cox was not in a condition physically or mentally to make a state ment until the morning, when it will be heard and the State's rebutting evi dence. k - " THE DETENDAifT JAKES ,H1 ' STATE ment gives a ftll history of his life, and of his . bei,ation8 with col.
