many people here wonder why the counsel
for Correiro did not waive examination at
the start, Thursday. instead of taking a
whole morning TO make up their mind
that the prisoner has no case. It turns
out to be a shrewd move OF Lawyer Swift
and for fixed purpose. He could not
hope to free the accused after all he has
said about the case. He did plan to
tighten the charge, however. He will in
sist that the crime was not one of murder
in the first degree, but of manslaughter,
and If he succeeds in doing this he may
save the neck of the prisoner.
