EVIDENCE AT HAND
PURELY CIRCUMSTANTIAl
Defendants Charged Jointly With
the Murder Of Their Niece,
Oeey Snead
(By Associated Press.l

Newark, N. j., May 16.-The plac-
ing on trial tod in Newark, n. j.,
Of Miss Virginia Vardlaw, Mrs Caro-
line B. Martin and Mrs. Mary Snead
charged jointly with the murder ol
Mrs. Ocey w. Snead. marks the be-
ginning of another chapter in the now
famous bath tub mystery, one oil
the most battling cases in the crimin-
al annals Of tile east. The curious
manner in which the beautiful young
woman met her death, the fact that
the three defendants are sisters and
members of an old southern family
and that one is the mother, and the
other two the aunts of the victim,
have all combined to arouse an un-
usual degree of interest. To this will
be added mass of wierd and uncan-
nv evidence that win be presented by
the prosecution at the trial In an
attempt to show that these three old
women were responsible for the death
OF young Mrs. Snead and that this
cold-blooded crime was committed In
order that they might obtain the $S2,
600 insurance on the victims life.
Although the prosecution has a
mass of discriminating evidence, it Is
purely cifcumstantial and the case
hinges on the question of whether the
suicide note found pinned to Ocey
Sneads clothes on the morning her
body was discovered in the bath tub
is or Is not forgery. Since their in,
carceration the old women have not
written a letter OF any kind with the
exception of a note which was ad
dressed to the Methodists. In which
they appealed for aid Their note was

Wardlaw to the effect that she ha,

hours, and that she had helped pre-

Another mysterious circumstance
and one on which the prosecution
bases It's strongest hopes, was the dis
covery Of three suicide notes in tn
effects of Mrs Martin, the girl
mother, when she was placed unde

OF the notes Is almost identical wit
