ll3 ALLENTOWN. PA. Jan. 1s.--The chain
OF circumstnntial evidence. which the
Commonwealth is attempting to forge
around Mrs. Catherine Bechtel charged
with being an accessory after the fact IN
the murder OF her daughter. Mabel, was
greatly strengthened to-day by the wit
ness called by the prosecution. And, cou-
pied with this. what little was left OF the
fair name OF the dead girl was completely
wired out by the testimony OF Alois Eek
stein, who said he WAS willing to over
look her faults and make the pretty way
ward girl his wife.
Eckstein's story OF the intimacy OF
himself and other men with Mabel Bech-
tel was shocking. lie went so far as to
testify that the mother countenanced tho
b misconduct of her daughter lie related
his visit to the Bcchtel home on the day
that Mabels body is alleged to have been
Il hidden in the house. and said that the
actions of the members OF the family
y, appeared strange to him.

that he should marry her.

Yes
Witness was asked to explain why he

(. He said Il heard that Mabel had been
out with q well-known man In town and
that her mother told her to get all she
could out Of him, upbraided Mabel about
1t and told her that II she. kept on acting
like that I'd ncvcr nave anything to do

into trouble, nobody would have her and
she would DO u cast -otf, Then she ran

Dr. John Lear, a biological expert OF
