Against Alleged Ohio Wife
Murderer.

Hamilton, O., July 1.-David Loeb,
a furniture dealer, was the first witness
called Tuesday in the trial of Alfred
Knapp for the murder of his wife he
said that Knapp on December 70 told
him his wife was in Indianapolis. A.
Moore, junk dealer, said that ne solo
Knapp a box such as that in which the
wifes body is said to have been placed
on December o. George Cooley, a tin
ner who knew Knapp, said that on
December % he saw Knapp drive into
Shollenbarger's livery barn with
wagon at 9:45 a. m. Later in the week
Knapp told him that he had sent his
wife to Cincinnati Captain OF Police
Lenehan was called and kept the stand
long time. He told of arresting Knapp
at Indianapolis and detailed the investl-
CATION that lead to the discovery that
Knapp's wife was missing and pointed
to her husband as her murderer.
Mayor Bosch was called and was about
to tell of Knapp's confession to him when
the defense objected, and while the ques-
ton was being argued the jury was re-
moved from the courtroom.
When Mayor Bosch was recalled the
defense made fight to keep Knapp's
two confessions from going to the jury.
Lawyer Thomas made an argument de-
claring the state had not proven Han
nah Goodall Knapp's murder and insin-
uating that the police procured the con-
LESSONS improperly. Judge Belden
finally ruled to admit the confessions,
which is a serious blow to the defense.
Mayor Bosch then outlined the confess
sions, one of which he read and identi-
fed. He was on the stand when court
adjourned and was under cross-exam-
ination.
