His Attorney Stands Close by when
Interviewers Visit Jail and Objects
10 Forcing Answers from the Pris-
oner-Appearance shows Evidence
of Days spent DOdEing Pursuers.

Leonardtown. Nd. May 27.-That Jo-
seph Forrest, the nineteen-year-old boy
who is in jail here on suspicion Of mur-
dering his father and mother. Mr.. and
Mrs William Plowden Forrest. in their
Oakville home, is Of sound mind and only
physically weak : is the opinion OF DR..
Thomas Lynch, the jail physician. who
talked with the prisoner this morning
This opinion is shared by many others.
The newspaper men made efforts TO get
a statement from Forrest. but he re-
fused 10 answer any questions that would
tend 10 incriminate him, and especially
when his counsel. William T. LOker. eau
toned his client TO remain silent.
Reporters Ask Questions.
When the reporters got at Forrest they
asked:
When did you last see your mother?''
4 don't remember
When did you leave homer"
7 don't know"
rs this the same suit Of clothes you
wore when you left homer"
! think it IS"
why did you hit your father with the
ax?"
7 object 70 such a lire OF cross-ques-
tioning," shouted Attorney Loker. This
man is in nv care and ! am going to pro-
ject his rights. II is cruel 10 try and ex-
tort facts from him that would incriml-
nate him"
Favored Examination.
States Attorney Coombs wanted the
examination 10 go on. but Forrest obeyed
the command OF Attorney Loker and re-
mained silent
Members Of the posses which unsuccess-
fun searched the woods day after day
for two weeks are not very much sur
prised az the discovery that Forrest was
able 10 remain in the vicinity without
being discovered. The condition OF his
face. hands. and feet makes it plain
that ne laid IN the dense and almost i'm
penetrable underground. II Is easy TO
conceive that he might many times have
been within few yards Of the search
ers without being seen.
The recent rains saturated the ground.
and so far as can be ccnjectured the boy
had no other shelter than the foliage
OF the trees
Forrest saws he lived for days on
seorns, chesJnuts. and by milking oows
IN the helds ct night.
