with me to the station house. She said
she would like 10 gather up some letters
IN the room. and / let her gather them
up. and she put them in handbag
After she got the letters. she wanted to
go TO room 227 and put on her furs, and

on. Policeman Emmett joined me In this
room, and we took Mrs. Bradley TO the
station house
while Mrs Bradley was before the
sergeant, the policeman said, "she
seemed extremely anxious TO know what
Browns condition was.
This was about 3 o'clock, as near as
the policeman could recall, According 10
the previous witnesses. the shooting oc-
CURED about 2.30 o'clock
a Detectives story.
When Detective Clifford L. Grant was
placed on the stand, Attorney Hoover ag-
gressively followed up the position he
had assumed-that Mrs. Bradley had not
made any voluntary statement, but that
the method adopted by the police had
forced her TO say anything she might
have said.
Detective Grant said he saw Mrs Brad
ley about half past o'clock. in the ma
irons room, and there were present the
prisoner, Lieut. Hartley. Detective Null
len. and the matron.
What was Mrs. Bradley's manner"
asked Mr.. Turner.
'She appeared 10 be laboring under a
great strain and as If she had been
through something cut Of the ordinary"
The detective added that the expression
on her face was very much Ike that on
her face as she confronted him from her
seat near her counsel
The detective was detailing the diff
Guilty he experienced AT securing a state
ment Of any kind from the woman. when
Justice Stafford interrupted him and
asked:
DO I understand you were urging her
20 talk?"
The detective said he was not.
What reason did You give her as 10
why YOU wanted a statement from herr"
Grant replied he told her he was a de-
tective from headquarters, and had been
sent 10 interview her.
Who sent you?" the Judge asked.
Inspector Boardman." said Grant
The Major and superintendent Of police
had requested a report from him concern
ing the shooting"
During direct examination by the gov
ernment, Detective Grant said he merely
wanted statement from her so as to es-
tablish her identity.
Did YOU tell her when you saw her in
the matron's room that anything she
might say would be used against herr"
asked Mr.. Hoover.
Il did"
s.-T-I,l-, .-f--a n IT, ere
went there for the sole purpose Of estab-
fishing her identity. why did you tell her
the first thing that anything she might
say would be used against herr"
To this the witness replied that as he
was detective he thought he ought 10
tell her.
DO you know whether Senator Suther-
land had seen her before you did?''
Object TO Question.
This question was objected to by the
government. on the ground that the wit
ness was not supposed to know who had
seen her. but Mr.. Hoover finally framed
his questions so as 10 develop the fact
that Senator Sutherland had not yet seen
her
Now, as a matter of fact asked Mr..
Hoover, were you not sent there TO get
what could be used against her at her
trial?"
mo. sir; I don't think I was"
Didn't you know that Detective Bur

information, and that you were sent I'D
there 10 complete the jobg'
