DR.. CORNWALL DISCHARGED.
Prosecuting Attorney states That No
Further steps VIII be Taken
in the CnSe.

ST. Louis, No. July l7.-(Special) The
charge of murder against DR.. Richmond
Cornwall Of Kansas City. was dismissed
b. Judge Murphy to-day at the conclusion
OF the preliminary examination of the de-
feEdant. The prosecuting attorney then
stated that no further steps would be tax
en- in the case. The sensations promised
by the police did not materialize in evil
dtEce. DR.. Richmond Cornwall maintained
a stoical demeanor while reciting the de-
tails of the murder OF his brother There
wac not the slightest evidence Of emotion.
His story was straightforward, and he did
not appear TO care 10 shield himself for
any blame that WAS attached 10 the kill
ing. He said he had continued TO beat his
brother over the head after he was pow
er.ess 20 resist, and that he had done so
because in q frenzy OF passion. While de-
sCribing the struggle for life between the
brothers. the defendant stood up and il
lUstrated the various position Of the COM
bstants.
Old DR.. Cornwall, the father Of the broth
ers was visibly agtated when he was
placed on the witness stand. His face
was ashy white and his voice trembled as
he told the story Of the murder. II was
substantially the same that given at
the inquest over the body of Herbert Corn
wall. There was no evidence adduced
throwing any new light on the case.

that his reelection is doubtful.
The POpulist convention failed to indUrse
