Dr. Bickford said he was immediately imme-diately in front of the I. W, W. hall at the time and that during a temporary lialt some one suggested a raid on the hall. "I spoke up and said I would lead if enougn woula follow," he stated, "but be-tore be-tore 1 could take the lead there were many ahead of me. Some one next to me put his foot against the door and forced it open, after which a shower of bullets poured through the opening about us." Dr. Herbert Bell, also a marcher, testified tes-tified that he heard a shout from the ranks ahead while the poraders were standing at rest. He saw the ranks in front of him break, he said, and move toward the I. W. W. hall. "It seemed to me that it was at the same moment that I heard shute." Dr. Bell said. "The shooting and the movement move-ment of the men was as nearly simultaneous simultan-eous as any human acts could be." A. F. Cormier, who served as a lieutenant lieu-tenant in the army and who was adjutant of the parade, testified he waa positive the first shot was fired from the window of tho Avalon hotel when he was on horseback a half block away from the hotel.1 He also saw, he testified, a man shooting from behind an automobile and another from behind a building.
