his body bent forward. lie seemed carewOrn,
but not in fear. Meoting him under other cir

THIS IS HIS DEFENSE.
His own story is that he went to his room In
the East River Hotel at ~ O'Clock on the night
OF the murder. He knew nothing Of Carrie
Browne presence IN the house. He slept there
and got up In the morning. He had not killed
the woman, and was surprised when arrested

been thoroughly described, and there are sew
eral who can identify HIM. Here is the real
opportunity for fine detective work.
