stein became tangled, and finally admitted
that he had taken fifteen drinks Of beer
and whisky on the day the death occurred
ard that his mind was not clear.
Several female witnesses, former asso-
ciates OF Frankie's. were called in the
afternoon. one of them told OF how on
two occasions she had kept the dead girl
from committing suicide by jumping from
a window not very long oerore her death
She also testified that deceased was

Ian was not sane al the time tire girl

were very much like those OF a man whose

TO tel why he thought the prisoner insane

could not explain the exact difference be-
