In the presence of a crowd of some 200 spectators he again told of his horrible crime in a manner which proved him to be a man without any feeling whatever and of a depraved character. During the recital of the murder he spoke in a clear and audible tone and talked rather listened rapidly and the spectators very attentively to catch every word that came from his lips, i Re expressed a desire to die for his crime; Baying that hp felt Justified in doing what he did and fully expected to die for it. He told the Jury that ha would prefer death to a term of Imprisonment and that he had no regrata for whst he had done. It was brought t In the testimony that two of his relatives had committed murder, one bring banged for his crime and the other being acquitted. Rose, in answer to questions put by that he Attorney Christensen, said was born at Middleboro, Mo., on Nov. 17, 1873, and Is nearly 31 years of age.

"Did you know what the penalty would lie for the crime? Yrs. sir, I knew that the penalty would bo death, and 1 expected to dte for it." 'Did you at first intend to plead guilty?" "Vr-sbut 1 was told that the court wnuio not accept such a plea, then I tod you that I would not enter a plea of noi guilty 'and you proposed that I Mure to plead at all and I did as you Dn-yo- , .

"Did any of them ever kill any one? "Yes. n cousin on my father's side and one on my mother'! side killed a man. The first killed a man because he insulied his mother and he was hung for the crime. The other killed a man for kissing his wife, and he was acquitted. "Aren't you mistaken when you say that your wife talked to yon after she was shot? "No, sir, I am not.

Rose said that the witnesses for the state lied when he said that he took men In the wine room and Introduced them to his wife. He was then turned over to District Attorney Elchnor tor Rose refused several times to tell thef district attorney when and where he met hla second wife. "How long did you know your second wife before you married her?" aaked Mr. Elchnor. I refuse to tell," was the reply. Why?" Because I don't think it la any of your business." How long had you known her by sight? T refuse to answer that, too. It don't make any difference when or where I met her. Were you married a month after you met her? Now, Is tnat any of your business? quickly responded the defend ant Judge Morse instructed Rose to answer the questions put to him.

He said that her parents did not consent to the marriage. At this point the court took a recess until this afternoon. - MILLIONS John IN MVUNE MINES. F. Groesbeck, the OGDEN, FTAII. well known mining expert, returned yesterday from his trip to Peru, having been absent exactly eight months. was summoned to Mr. Groesbeck South America by A. W. MeCune to examine and repot I on a number of placer claims, located In the heart of the Interior of Peru, that had been offered for sale to MeCune, J. B. Haggln and other members of the mining syndicate with which the well known Salt Laker Is associated. He left here on six hours' notice eight months ago today and his experiences since his departure would fill an Interesting volume. At bis home on West Temple street Mr. Groesbeck talked interestingly of his trip and his observations. He did not care to discuss tbe business that called him there until Mr. MeCune himself Is ready to make announcements, but he was free to speak of the Cero de Pasco, the big Peruvian proposition In which the local capitalist is heavily interested, and he la enthusiastic over It "From all I could gather while in Peru, said Mr. Groesbeck, "the Cero de Pasco Is the largest mine ever discovered In the history of the world. I am not exaggerating this at alL I firmly believe it la tbe largest. For more than 300 years it was worked by the Spaniards. They extracted something like 6,000.000 ounces of silver from Its depths, and I do not believe that the metal gave out all at once. In fact, such a theory Is ridiculous. They have now millions of tons of rich copper ore in sight and will taka out millions and millions of dollars. I care not what the toporta are locally, It Is a tremendous proposition. I have heard it said that MeCune has failed in hla great project Never was a falser report spread. Everything la looking better every day. The wealth of the mine la almost beyond belief. "Of course. It Is necessary to expend millions before they can get at the profits. And It takes time to expend millions. . They have spent a good deal of time on the railroad, and TONOPAH ROAD. Ovte Twenty-fiv- e Miles Is Now Reported to Be Ready for Steel.

We are laying 2,000 feet of track at Rhodes for the reception of material. We expect to lay a mile of track per day, when we get started, and the C & C.

The first engine has arrived at Rhodes and the other two engines are on tbe way from Philadelphia, having left there three weeks ago.
