Bay City, Mich, April 9.-The open
win T. Bennett and DR.. r. w. Girls.
void Tuesday on a charge of man.
slaughter In connection with the death
of Agnes Eberstein. who is thought to
have died as the result of criminal
operation in this city, brought out but
little which had not already been told
in the reports OF the case. The wit
nesses produced by the prosecution
we're William Credon, clerk Of the
Fraser house, where Miss Eberstein
stayed while in this city. and Floyd
Goodwin, one of the proprietors of the
hotel.
Credon had talked with Bennett,
who came to see the girl on the day
of her arrival and was there often af-
ter that. He said that the girl was APP
parently in good health when she ar
rived. Goodwin said that he under
stood that DR.. Griswold had performed
an operation on the girl for an abscess
in the ear. He told the doctor that he
thought 1t would have been better to
take her to hospital, but DR.. Girls
void said that he had punctured very
near the brain and did not want to
have the girl attended by any but a
very careful nurse. Goodwin under
stood from Bennett that he was the
girls uncle. Bennett paid her bill
and later came and got her watch.
Neither of the witnesses had seen
any wound on the girls head which
would go to carry out the theory that
hoH N on,
it, although Credon looked for such
evidence after the girl was dead.
The examination will be continued
Thursday morning.
The difficulties into which Edwin T.
Bennett has been plunged as the re-
suit of his alleged connection with
the Agnes Eberstein case has recalled
to the residents of Bay City the ia
nous series of suits in which Bennett
was involved a few years ago.
During the panicky times of go Mr..
Bennett lost control of the Bay City
Tribune, the paper passing into the
hands of a receiver and being subse-
quently sold. Several years previous
Bennett had organized a company and
disposed of the stock in the paper. the
understanding being, so he claimed
that he was to have privilege of buy
ing the stock back.
After Bennett lost control Of the pa
per an examination of the books was
made, and the result was that war
rant was sworn out for his arrest on
charge of embezzlement.
Subsequently he was arrested, but
the charges discontinued Bennett
then started suit for false arrest The
jury brought in verdict for Bennett
for over $4,000 The case was ap-
pealed and sent back for new trial.
This time Bennett failed to win his
point.
