CASE YESTERDAY.
THE SPELLING OF THE NAME

FOR HOURS.

Special TO the Register.
PARkSRSBIURG, w. Va, July 17.r-
To-day was almost totally devoid OF
interest in the Ellis Glenn forgery
case. The defense raised technical
point on which 1t was claimed that the
Indictment. so far as 1t related to the
deed of trust, was vitiated and that the
deed should be excluded from the evil
dence. The point was that in the In
dictment 1t was charged that Il. b.
Glenn committed forgery, while the
name which appears on the deed of trust
is L. B. GLENN. The defense argued
for about an hour upon this point
which the State designated as absurd.
The matter was finally submitted to the
court, which took time to consider.
About all the rest of the day was
taken up with the examining OF ex-
perts on handwriting, all Of whom
agreed that the signatures OF Hoover
on the $500 note and on the sl,400 note
were not the same, and that the several
different signatures, Il. b. Glenn, on
the note, deed Of trust, assignment OF
the deed of trust, and letters to Rich
ardson, were in the same handwriting.
The defense seems to be fighting for
time, as the case has proceeded very
slowly and has been delayed princi-
pally by long arguments of counsel for
the defense.
DR.. Gale Samuels testified this af-
ternoon that he examined Ellis Glenn
under the direction of the court, and
she is a woman. He was not allowed
to tell of marks and scars on her or
of her broken leg.
