LUMBER PILE COLLAPSED
,___.._
Albert N. Jennings Had a Narrow Es-
cape From Death.
Albert N. Jennings had a very nar-
row escape from death shortly before
noott today. while at his work in the.
yards of the Hilb'bell, Hall and Randall
Company, in Water street, Norwalk.
Presence of mittd saved Mr. Jennings
front having his life crushed bill by it
huge pile of lumber, but. quick as he.
was, the falling timbers pinionetl his
right leg and broke it Ill two places be-
low the knee.
With ti number of other employees
.of the yards Mr. Jennings was engaged
getting lumber out of a pile at the
lower end of the yard. Some of the
timbers were being pulled out of the
underside of the pile and this so weak-
ened it that the whole. mass above top-
pled over. Mr. Jennings saw it letter
and ran. but could not, escape entirely.
for the only avenue of escape was to
another tall pile nearby. It was at
this point, that he was caught.
Though suffering great agony, he
bore the ordeal well, while his fellow
workmen lifted the timbers off him.
He was placed itt as comfortable a po-
sition as possible to await the arrival
of Dr. Harrison (i. Sloat, who arrived
a few moments later and made an ex-
amination of the injury. Dr. Sloat
bottnd tip the wounded llinb tempor-
arily llllll summoned the ambulance to
convey Mr. Jennings ,to the hospital.

NICW‘ YORK, April 2h.——'l‘he story
told by Mrs. .l. Morgan Sutltli bit the
witness stand yesterday afternoon .‘lltl
the prospect of her cross-examination
by counsel for tlte defence today ser-
ved to intensify interest III the case of
Nan Patterson, who is ttow on trial iii
the (‘Olil‘l of General Sessions, charg-
ed with the murder of Caesar Young.
The appearance. of Mrs. Smith as a
witness for the prosecution cattle to
the nature of a surprlSe to the de-
fence, Mr. Levy has said. lie profess-
ed to be very well satisfied with the
move, however, atid said that. crosscx»
animation of the witness,wouid afford
hiut an opportunity to place before the
jury evidence which cottld ttot be pro-
duct-ti in any other way. He also be-
lieves, he said, that the direct testi.
ittotty of Mrs. Smith has only served
to strengthen the case of the prisoner
as it sitpports itt many important tic-
tnlls the testimony given by Miss Pat-
terson herself at the last trial, a por-
tion of which was read to the jury to
day.
The direct it‘XlllllIllIllIOli Mrs.
Smith was resumed today. Mrs.
Smith testified yesterday that Miss
’attei'son had expected Caesar Young
to get a illVOl't‘L‘d‘l'Olll his wife and
marry her. She. herself, believed that
Young Illlt‘iltltul eventually to marry
her sister tttttll last May, when Leslie
Coggins lolti llt‘l' that Young tlitl not
intend to carry out the agreement
Miss Patterson lit-tame greatly excited
when Coggitts Inlement was repeated
to her Mrs Smith said 'l‘tiking tip the
examination where it was interrupted
by adjoutnnteut last night. M Rand
asked "Did not (logglns tell you that.
the. best thing Young thought Nan
could do was to accept Matt ’l‘rluible‘s
offer of marriage?"
“lli- tlltl not say anything like that
to lilv," replied Mrs. Smith.
"llid Miss Patterson say that‘the
cause of her emotion was that Cttggins
had tnisreprescutcd Young's intentions
lownltl her?”
"She tilti not stiv so ill those words
bttt I kttew it.”
Mitt. Smith said Nan refused to be“
hole the story told by (‘oggltis She
was excited. the witness said. because
she was disappointed at the postpone-
ment of her tittirrlagc to Young.
"She tliti not say anything about
her future intentions?"
“No." .
“Anti yet yott described ht‘l' its 'frttn-
tir' attti ‘despert‘tte.’ "
"Yes."
“When you wrote the letter to
Young were you iii a state of feeling
of
brought on by what Nttit had tolti
you?"
“Yes, my sister is not responsh
bio for that letter."
"Did that letter represent. truthfully
the state of your mind?"
"It did."
"Did it represent Nun's state of
mind?"
This question was not answered.
Mr, Rand here offered the interrupted
letter which Mrs. Smith sent to Young
which was ruled ottt yesterday and
again it was rejected by Recordet
(loft.
In the course of his examination Mr.
l‘tanti asked Mrs. Smith If she had
poaaessod all the information she. had
testified to itt this trial all the time
since she left New tork last June.
Mrs. Smith replied that she would like
to answer the question. hilt feared it
would tend to degrade and incrim-
inate her as site Is under indictment
for conspiracy. 'lhe prosecutor then
promised that if she would answer he
would move next Monday to quash the
indictment against her. httt she tie-
t~llnetl to do so until she had an op-
portunity to confer with tier counsel.
After she had consulted with list
counsel Mrs Smith declined to answer
the question "I must stick to my
sistei, she told the prosecuting nt~
tot-hey. as she resumed the stand
“And yott refuse to snow r potwlth-
standing my promise in open court to
have the indictment against you
quashetl'.” asked Mt. ‘Rand.
‘i do.‘
"Again I ask you. were you in New
York on June 8?"
"i decline to answer because my
response might. tend to degrade and
incriminate me" “
Recorder (luff directed the witness
answer the question saying that
it called for an answer. She still do-
cllned to do so. saying. "i must stick
to my slster.’
"Will you antiwar if the indictment
for conspiracy 0 which you are held

"No" replied the witness.
Mrs. Smith said that when Miss l'tit ‘
