Did you ever see these pistols before? '(Showing witness pistols) A. Yes, sir. I have 6een this pistol. Q Now, as to the other? A. Yes, , sir. I have seen that one, too. Q. Where did you see these pistols? 1 A. My deputy turned them over to me. Q. When were they turned over to you? A. The day of the Bhooting. Q. As whose pistols? Mr. Nelson?We object. Q. (By the solicitor): Have you " A \T? the Duiiat in jour poB&etJi-ioxii -a- ^u, sir. Mr. Nelson?We had better make ourselves plain. We have some information in reference to that bullet and do not know that it is correct and we object to any of these articles being put in evidenoe unless they are traced direct as being the bullets from the pistol discharged that day and that it is the pistol used that day. They are not in evidence as yet as I understand. The Solicitor?I understand that if we offer incompetent evidence our friend will object. We will proceed in the .regular way. Q Did you ever see a bullet like that before? (Showing witness bullet.) A. Yes, sir. Q. Where did you see it? A. A bullet similar to that was turned over to me. O Bv whom, sir? A.

A young gentleman brought it into my office and turned it over to me and I turned it over to the clerk of cou-t. Q To Mr. Walker? A. Yes, sir. J. A. Hoyt, Jr. sworn: solicitor Thurmond: "We will ju6t put up Mr. , Hoyt for the purpose of identifying I the clothing and later will put him on another branch of the case. The garment was identified as being those worn by Mr. Gonzales on the day of > the shooting. Mr. Lewis G. Wood, Jr. recognized the coat as did also Mr. M. C Wallace. At the request of Mr. Croft the files of the State newspaper were produced. TUESDAYS PBOCEDINGS. A prominent feature of the prosecution's testimony today was that of Mr. Ambrose E. Gonzales, president of The State company, publisher of The State newspaper and eldest brother of the late editor. He was sworn for the purpose of identifying the files of The State for the whole year of 1902?a period covering the ilemocratio campaign in which the prisoner, then lieutenant governor, was a candidate for governor and during which his record was attacked by The State. It was developed today that a subpoena duces tecum had been issued by the defense to Mr. Gonzales to bring with him the hies dating from April 15 to September 15,1902, five months, but it will be noted that the files offered in evidence are for 12 months The purpose of the state evidiently was to prove by its witnesses that \T? ri/\Tiv^laa marid nn Vinofilo ^amnn_ iUi* \aUUA31UO uinuw uu uv/ovug UOUAVU^ stration against Colonel Tillman; that Mr. Gonzales, was shot in the back, and that the defendant had prepared himself to do the shooting on that fatal morning. Mr. Spann Dowling was sworn to support the latter theory, as was also Mr. Gause of Florence. Then came the following witnesses Drs. Guerry, Taylor, Pope and Griffith who testified as to Mr. Gonzales' wounds. W. F. Steiglitz the gunsmith testified. that he renaired t.he macra^ine of the German magazine pistol at the request of F. H. Domenick. This may be considered as the essential facts developed in today's proceedings. The counsel on both nides are I ,< "?? To Cu I Take Laxative Bron ?1 Seven M2Gon boxes sold in past 12 m watching carefully, every move that is being made and any false step made is promptly noted by one side or the other, every inch of the ground is being holly contested and the authorities are frequently quoted. Judge Gary, though as has been said by another, is untried, maintains a calmness that is surprising under the tremendous strain upon him, and his rulings are promptly given. The entire time of the court was consumed this morning in discussing the question of admitting the declarations of Mr. GoDzales made in the State office. Just before recess the Judge ruled that the testimony was admieable, and here we close our report. It is possible that from the progress now being made, the state will consume the balance of the week. Third Week's Jurors.
