the terrible disclosures made by the

definitely known whether Georee
Kerr, who was jointly indicted with
the other prisoners, but who was
granted a separate trial, will be
called as q witness for the State.
The principal evidence yet to be
introduced by the State is to be
given by the county physicians and
experts to prove the cause of death
and to prove that Jennie Bosschieter
was criminaliy assaulted before her
death, and that it was through
assault that her death was brought.
