PoHceman W. T. Penry. The next witness told about being iu the police station when Sam Kobre came in and told about somebody breaking in the saloon and shooting Henry Kobre. When he went to- llu saloon he found the front door open, but did not examine any other doors; went up stairs and found dying man on the floor, with brains oozing out of the hole ln his forehead; I searched Kobre's pants and found a silver watch and key; the blood seemed to be under and near his head; tbe shade to the window was down; 1 had a conversation with Sam Kobre a few days after the murder; I can't remember what Sam said about Henry's murder; I did not examine any of the doors except the back one. Cross-examination: Sam Kobre was walking fast and seemed to be right much frightened when he came to the polico station. Witness gave the same description of Henry Kobre's 'room as did Ser geant Thomas. He did not know who removed the blood and brains from the floor. Judge Peebles ruled the question Incompetent as to whether the wound could have been inflicted with a hatchet. Witness was of the opinion that the ball found in the ceil ing was fired from the outside; he did not see anything except the hole In Kobre's head and a few "specks" on the head: he did not remember seeing Henry Kobre before he wag killed" that night; something was said after Henry was removed to the hospilal about his money; the pants were on a bicycle when I searched them; there was t laige crowd lu the. saloon and tip-stairs when I searched the pants. Re-dlrect examination: It took three or four to put Kobre on the bed; there were several iu the room when the punts were removed from under Hc-ury's pillow ; It was 10 minutes or more after I arrived before Dr. Bynum came.

On cross-examination witness re- Iterated his statement that Plean told him (hat he left Max Kobre's home at 11 o'clock; that he saw Plean come to the undertaking establishment where the body of Henry . wag being dressed, before day Monday morning. Before adjourning court for dinner Judge Peebles announced that It would be necessary to hold, night Res sloii8 in order to complete the hear ing in time for him to hold Ashe court next-week. "I have engage men,l8 for every night this week, but I propose to break them and hold night sessions at least as long as 1 can, said his houor. Judge Peebles told the Jury not to read any newspapers durfng the trial; lot to discuss the case among them selves or allow. It to be discussed in their presence. He also Instructed them not to drink anv whiskey or wine; "Just eat pure food and drink good water." said his honor. Policeman W. A. Hartness. 1 had a conversation with Sam Kobre the night of the murder. He told me that he and Plean left Max Kobre's home, corner of Liberty and Sixth street, about 11 o'clock; that they came down to the Municipal building, where they separated, each going to his respective rooms; 1 ar rested Sam Kobre at the Elks' Audl- Itorlum on the night of March 5. Counsel for defendant objected to witness telling about fluding a pistol cent what I thought was my duty lu this case.

Orrell said that he and his thr?e friends went to a livery stable where they remained until 11 o'clock. Sam Kobre had a pistol; I think It was a '.VI calibre, Smith & Wesson. An overcoat button, was found on Tuesday after the murder near thj saloon counter; Sam came to the saloon two or three' days after the murder and borrowed my over coat; the button found was a plain one, so far as I can remember; i think Sam's overcoat was two years old. but It was In good condition. - bame few days after the murder Policeman Penry and I went In the restaurant and looked In the money and other drawers but failed to find any cash; I boarded with Henry some; May paid my board bill to Henry. about V or..J3, on Sunday morning before Henry, was killed that night; ! thought Henry did a banking busi ness; a hatchet was kept lu the saloon, . On cross-examination witness said tho hatchet was sometimes used by Henry In his restaurant; that It was used for opening boxes, whiskey kegs, etc. Henry had been In business there two years; never knew of him and Sam having any trouble; Sam and I (and I think Mr. Plean), took supper at the restaurant, about 7 o'clock that Sunday evening: we played a game of cards for amusement: E.
