The closing scene of tho Ballow
trial for yesterday was tho evidence
of Ballow himself. During tho whole
day lie had listened, without apparent
emotion, to tho stories of tho men
who had witnessed tho killing of Foo-
shee and did not seem to care wheth
'or the evidence went for or against
him. During tho afternoon many of
tho witnesses contradicted them
selves. Men got up and swore to to
tally different versions with such
startling dlscrepencles thnt one won

The Jury Is a fine and representa
tive body of men. They appeared to
be studying tho testimony carefully,
but oiw could see evidences of doubt
In tho expression of tfliolr faces. They
are nearly nil old men and appear to
bo aware of tho responsibility that
' rests upon them.
j But when two men who found the
body swore to an exactly opposlv
I statement In the finding, It could not
help confuse them. Two policemen,
-who were tho first to view the man's
! body gave, a different version of tho
manner In which ho was lying. One
stated that ho wn on his Imek ami
another thnt he was upon "his face.
I One swore that his revolver ww

that It was on Ills right side. And ko
