Negro Woman Says She Heard Automobile Horn After Shot Night of Tragedy-One Wit ness Contradicts Prosecu tion About Prisoner's Rela Uons WIUT Beulah Blnford. CHESTERFIELD COURT HOtSE. V., Stvt. 2. Court reconvened at 11:30 today to continue the hearing of the Beattie murder case. Eliza Moseley, a-aagro woman, took I the stand. Judge Wutson announced that the woman told him she heard something in her home on the Midlo thian turnpike on the night of the mur der and asked her, though ill. to testi ly. The woman testified that about half past ten that night she heard the' report of a gun. "I heard nothing but noise of a gun and the blowing of an automobile horn," she added. "When did the horn blow?" "Just after I heard a noise like the starting of a machine." Deposition Not Taksn. The deposition of Mrs. Staeger, who it is alleged saw a highwayman on the road near her home, was not take a, ss counsel for the defense admitted that what she knew was of little account. A Sensational Turn. Charles Kestleburg, of Richmond, the mysterious witness whose dis covery yesterday caused counsel for the defense in Henry Clay Beattle's trial for murder to interrupt the ex amination of witnesses nearly an hour, came forward today with the declaration that It was he who was motoring on the Midlothian .turn pike on the night of the murder and who stopped his machine to get some water, while a woman with him stood on the running board of the car. Kestleburg's testimony, if accepted aa a fact, neutralises the evidence of fered by the prosecution in many Im portant respects because the Com monwealth had , held that It ' was Henry Beattie who was crouching In front of the machine pn the turnpike, while his wife was standing on the running-board and was shot, her fall causing a big blood spot on the road. A crowd of boys coming from a dance at Bon Air had testified for the prose cution that tbey saw a man and wo man and offered them help but Fere refused. Kestleburg Is a wholesale butcher. It was I who was on the Midlo thian turnpike that night," said Kes tleburg to an Associated Press rep resentative before court opened to day. "I saw a crowd of boys pais and they offered me help which I said was unnecessary. I have hesi tated to give my information about the case to anybody." Kestleburg said he felt It was In the interest of Justice to make a clean breast of what be knew. Kestleburg's Testimony. The prisoner's face was wreathed In smiles as Kestleburg entered the court room. "You are a married man, Mr. Kes tleburg?" asked Attorney Smith, for the defense. "Yes." "You own an auto?" "Yes." . "Were you on the Midlothian turn pike on thenight of the murder?- leg.. "What time?' "About 10.30." "Were you with anybody?" "Yes, 1 had a lady with me." ' "Did you atop on the road?" "I stopped at the pump to get some water for the machine." "Did any one pass you?" "Yes, two machines." "Were they going fast?" "Yes." w "Did another car pass later?" "Yes." "Did it stop?" "Yes, and the occupants asked me if I needed help. I was in front of my machine and the lady was stand ing on the left running board." Who was in the car that offered to help youT . A carload of boys. You have told this to friends, haven't you?" "Yes, and I have tried to keep out of this case." "Why?" v : "Because I did not want newspa per notoriety." As a matter of fact you were afraid It would cause some embar rassment at borne, weren't you?" What kind of top did your car have? A black one." You came here with some reluc tance, did you not?"

The Witness was excused. , W. H. Sampson Testifies. W. H. Sampson, Beattle's chum, who was with him on his trip to Norfolk when he met Beulah Blnford, took the stand. The witness said he had known Beattie fifteen years. He knew of his relations with Beulah Blnford and of their breaking off be fore he married. - " Can yon tell the circumstance un der which be met Beulah Blnford af ter he was married?" ' "Yes, I received a letter from Nor folk from Beulah Blnford addressed to me in care of Henry C. Beattie, Jr He carried the letter around a cou ple of days and then told the letter carrier to take It to my home. I asked, 'Do you know who It's fromr He said, 'No.' I told blm I was go ing to Norfolk for the races and If I saw her down there I would give her a good time. He aald be might go along. I aaid Inasmuch as be was married perhaps he had better not fro. But be went. We saw Beulah Blnford." "How long were you In Norfolk V "Two days." "Was Henry with Beulah?" "Yes." . "Did you come back alone V "Yes." Sampson testified that Beulah's reputation in Richmond was "very bad." Sampson told of meeting Beulah at the depot In Richmond upon her ar rival from Norfolk. Sampson said Beulah was on ber way to Danville, Va., to go Into a house of III repute there. "How many timet from that time did you see Henry and Beulah togeth er?" "Twicn." "How did yon regard from all yon saw, heard and observed in Richmond and Norfolk report of Henry's being in love with Beulah V "They seemed to be friendly." "Did he treat her," asked Judge Watson, "aa a man whose affections seemed seriously engaged?" "No." s Threatening Letters. Several threatening letters came In Judge Watson's mall.

"Wonderful Instance of Nature's economy are often seen In creation.' said a cltlsen today In conversation with some friends. "For Instance the recent drought will probably have a great Influence an the wheat crop this year. The extremely dry weather this summer allows the oxygen In the air to pene trate the earth to a cooalderaM depth and the chemical action on tne mineral propertlea In the toll will have i the effect ot fertilising the same. "It ha been a general experience that large yield of wheat follow a drought." Doubtless, farmers throughout this section who are now plowing for wheat hope this wilt prove true this year.
