After this h sa kt no more, lie-did not choose to make a statement In his own defense. But his smile at times sought to discredit portions of the testi- mony. "I heard a rucus," testified one Mr. Anbury "down at the end of the car line on Trade street. 1 could hear it from my home, wore than 10U yard away,! and I went to It. . They were on the porch of the Siore. I heard Kirk putrick call the two street car men damned m . "'When', he 'called them that Mr. P.eu-nett-'-threw . something at liim and hit hint in the breast. Then Mr. Fuller hit htnn three OR. four times with his street car key;.!. i Then Fuller and Klrkuntrtck cliiehed ami Bennett ran up behind and hit Kirkpatrlck In the head." "What, was Klrkputrlek doing?" "Ha waa so stunted, he couldn't do anything." Nona of them, ha said, was drunk. The -other disinterested witness had been a passenger on the car with Kirk patrlck. He is a good looking, well dressed young fellow, and requested ; that his name be withheld. When the conductor, Bennett, came through lor Klrkpatrick's fare, the lat ter handed him some money, and said: "JJow you'd better give me back a bright one cent for a nickel as you did me fellow;the other night." The conductor said he didn't do it. and from this they talked on till th car came to the end of the line. 'Mr. Kirkpatrlck asked the conductor if he hadn't always treated liim as a gentleman. "The conductor said, 'No.' " Then Kirkpatrlck told him he was a llar.W;;ftv - 'About this time the motormnn cam" on through the car where the other tv, were wrangling. He had the "cunt roll er key". In his hand. Kirkpatrlck said, "if you'll set -fr the -car I'll give" you both a whipping i -'you're a liar." said to motorman.

That wan worth more than a whole hide. He therefore made a dive fr Kirkpatrlck and struck him wilh his list. They both fell into the gutter. Kirkpatrick hollered, or "made some sort -of noise," whereupon Bennett let him up. Fuller did not strike him while they were down. Kirkpatrlck, being up, was making toward the store when he said, "Well. two of rou were on me!" "No." denied l In motorman. "Not so. i did!, t lilt y.u.
