MEDICAL MEN ON WITNESS
eTANp TO TELL OF M'NAMA.
RA's DEFICIENCIES.
ONE SAYS FEEBLE MINDED,
ANOTHER SAYS lMsEclLE
Hypothetical Question Covering Six.
teen Pages Of Typewritten Copy
Several Experts Yet to Be Examined
to Prove Patrieide's responsibility
for His Acts.

Special to Times Republican.
Northwood, April s.-Attorney Marx
ley for defense yesterday read to DR..
E. r. Young the first medical witness,
hypothetical question covering all the
proof concerning Ed McNamara's life
ands peculiarities. The question fills
sixteen pages of closely typewriter
legal cap.
States Attorney Kepler spent much
time questioning DR.. Young as to his
measurements of defendants head,
which he said bore many stigmata of
degeneration, in attempt to show that
the head is within normal range ac-
cording to the best authorities.
The other medical witnesses are
paying strict attention to Young's evil
dence and to the hypothetical ques-
ton, Doctors are here from all over
the country. There will be half doz-
en- medical witnesses on each side.
That Ed McNamara's mind was so
unbalanced at the time he fired the five
bullets that caused his fathers death,
that he did not know right from wrong,
was the testimony of DR.. E. r. Young,
this afternoon, in answer to the hy-
pothetical question propounded to him
by the attorneys for the defense. The
theory of the defense Is that Ed acted
under an Irresistible impulse" that
was so strong, that with his always
weak mentality, he was unable to with
stand it; and that when he went to
town and bought the revolver and
chloroforn, and when he shot his
father, he actually believed that he
was doing a righteous act, for which
he would be forgiven in the world to
come
When DR.. Young was finally ex-
cused by the state, and DR.. Hewitt took
the stand, he answered the Hypothetical
question in practically the same way
that DIR. Young had. Or. Hewitts tes-
| timony differed from DR.. Youngs in the
degree of mentality in which Ed should
be classed, when normal. DR.. Young
had said feeble minded while DR.
Hewitt places his condition one degree
lower, and calls him an imbecile.
Dr. Hewitt's direct examination was
short He answered the Hypothetical
question, gave his opinion as to Eds
normal condition from his own investi-
cation, and corroborated the report Of
physical examination made by DR.
Young, DR.. Hewitt, DR.. Kean, and DR.
Hill.
When turned over to the state, MI

A dispatch was received from the
Midway fields yesterday stating that
the Santa Fe we'll on section six had
rels of old before it could be checked.
The tubing is all in, and as soon as
storage facilities are provided produc-
ton will commence.
The new we'll of the Midway Crude,
on the south half of section 81: 81 %
has been kept on the pump for two
weeks, during which time it produced
az the rate of 200 barrels, of 25-gravity
oil. The Midway Crude is on the ad-
joining section to the Santa Fe six,
close to the railroad. The company is
shipping its oil in tank cars, at the rate
or six and one-fourth cars a week, and
receives 20 cents at the wells.
The Midway six, which is within 100
feet of the Santa Fe, has completed its
rig and plant and started to spud in
yesterday. The company has a lease
on forty acres known as the Hall tract,
and will keep two strings of tools run

Los Angeles Syndicate Nego-

Mount Grant District

YERINGTON, New, Nov. 27,-"The
new railroad from Wabuska to Mason
and Yerington will be carrying passen-
gers and the copper ores of the Yering-
ton district by December 25,' is the
statement made today by President A.
j. Orem of Boston upon his arrival in
this camp. According to Mr., Orem,
who is also president of the Nevada
Douglas copper mine, one of the largest
properties in this district, the grading
gangs are already past Yerington and
the track has been laid to within a few
miles of this camp. The completion Of
this road marks an epoch in the history
of Mason valley, and this camp and
Mason are making preparations to cele-
brate Railroad day. Most of the cap
ital with which to build the road was
subscribed by the farmers of the valley.
Continued activity is apparent in the
Mount Grant district at the southern
end of the Mason valley. The new road
through Wheeler pass to the Gold Note
Will be completed this week, and Man
ager Vance of the Gold Note says that
upon it's completion an automobile will
be able to cross the range with ease.
The opening of the pass to other means
of transportation besides horseback will
result in a number of properties open
the melting of the winter SHOWS the
road will be dotted with ore teams
hauling their freight to the mills.
The Cheney property at Mount Grant
is the next to come into the list Of ship
pers by the strike this week in the main
shaft of eighteen inches of hematite
ore that will go better than $100 a ton
The ore was struck in the bottom of
the shaft at a depth of fifty feet, and
its discovery is doubly interesting be-
cause it widens the mineral zone of the
camp by several miles.
The Mcleod mine at Mount Grant
which is one of the largest low grade
properties in this part of the state
is still blocking out ore. Manager Nc
Cleod says that at present the ore body
is twenty feet wide and has an average
value of $40 a ton. For some time ne
gotiations have been in progress with a
syndicate of Los Angeles capitalists
for the sale of the property, and it is
stated that upon the sale of the mine
the new owners will erect a large mill
and concentration plant upon the
ground.
The Krppner lease on the Gold Note
estate is still in ore and the vein has
widened to nearly two feet. The entire
bottow of the shaft is heavily oxidized
and shows every indication of continu-
ty at depth. The leasers are timbering
the shaft and are sinking steadily and
it will not be long before that part of
the Oklahoma estate will be sack
ing ore.
