Col Neal on Trial
First Days Proceeding Fruitful
of Little. The Probable De-
fence of Col. Neal.
Special to Greenvillo News.

Opeclai 10 UreenVllIo News.
Columbia, S. c., Jun 90
Tho case against Col. Nm. A.
Neal, former superintendent of
the penitentiary, charged with the
statutory offence of failing to turn
over the funds collected by him
within thirty days, was called to-
day and went to trial.
The evident drift of the defence
seemed to be, gathered from the
little that has been heard that
Col. Neal will admit having
received the $500 from Fowler in
1895 and other items alleged but
that ne turned the money over as
soon As he had the exact amount of
his indebtedness established and
that he had no fraudulent intention:
The State will argue that the ele-
ment of intention does not enter
at all into the offence charged and
that simple failure to turn over
the funds makes the Offence. The
defence will urge that Colonel
Neal got the accounts mixed and
as soon as he knew how much he
owed he made payment of So
500, the amount claimed to be
due.

she, too, had been killed and the

his bullet had found the mark
for it was not until both sisters
were PROSTATE that he turned the
pistol toward himself. He aimed
at his heart, but the first shot
missed vital spot. A second,
however, reached the heart and
caused death. Freedman was 25
years of age and had Just finished

College. Insanity caused by over
study and illness is declared to
have caused his action.
