PRISONERS TESTIFY IN
THEIR OWN
BEHALF
MCGOWAN AND EARLY WEAKEN
ON THE CROSS ExAMiN-
ALTON.
Alliance Robbery Case Will Go Over
Into Next Week-is MCGOWAN
Epileptic?

The interesting feature Of the case
OF Ohio against James MCGOWAN and
Harrum Nye EARLY, Friday, was the
testimony of the two prisoners them
selves. They went upon the stand in
their own behalf and they were up
against stiff proposition. Both had
confessed to the crime and their eff
forts to get around and explain away
that confession were neither ingenious
nor clever.
Early was the first upon the stand,
He had told the police and Mayor
Walker that he and McGowan had
held up Frank Saunders at Alliance
and taken his pocketbook. Early up
on the stand denied part of this con-
fession, insisting that he had not said
what the officers had detailed as his
confession. He tried to make out that
he was under duress or fear, having
been told that 1t would be from 1 to
20 years in the penitentiary IL he were
found guilty ON trial. Attorney Roach
questioned his client and rather in
geniously drew out these statements.
When Prosecutor Day started in on
the cross examination, Earlys voice
sank to whisper and his face wore
worried look. At times he nodded yes
instead of speaking. BY the time the
examination was over he had admitted
about all that he had confessed to.
When MCGOWAN went upon the
stand he was smiling. He had about
the same story that Early had told.
He said he was drunk the night of the
trouble and had taken his coat off to
fight Saunders. That after they fought
awhile he ran away and that was how
Saunders got his clothing His story
weakened very materially in the cross
examination
During the day several doctors were
put upon the stand to testify that
MCGOWAN had something like epileptic
fits. 1t was shown that he had had
seizures OF some kind. but the epilepsy
was not very clearly established. A

Hoch, Chicagos alleged 'bluebeard"
is said to have once operated in Ne

figured in two alliances and endeav-
ored to repeat the performance. A
photograph of Hoch was received by
the Lincoln police today from the au-
thorities in New York and 1t was i'm
mediately claimed to be that of a man
named Hecht for whom local police
conducted search about a year ago.
The complainant was Mrs. Elizabeth
Goetz-Hech. She married Hoch. or
Hecht, who is said to be identical with
Hoch, in Lincoln, going with him to
California where he secured all her
money amounting to several thousand
dollars left her by her deceased hus-
band. He then deserted her and left
her stranded in Los Angeles. Rela-
tives aided her to return to Lincoln.
On her return she gave the Lincoln
police photograph of Hecht buA
many months search proved fruitless
and the photo was finally returned to
the deserted wife.
Another wife whom Hecht is said to
have married while going under the
name Of McGeowE, was discovered in
Omaha. She was also deserted after
giving her husband several hundred
dollars in cash. The two women
compared notes and discovered that
both had been duped by the same man.
Four years ago Hecht was a school
teacher in Lorton. small town in
Southeastern Nebraska. Failing in
several alleged Attempts to marry
wealthy widows in the neighborhood
he gave up his position and disappear
