MUST DEFEND SELF
Motion to Instruct for Defend
ant in Corcoran Case Is
Overruled.
ACCUSED MAN is ON STAND
Denies Every Charge Made Against
Him by Little Girls on Whose
Testimony Case Is Based.

A motion to instruct the jury to find
Frank Corcoran not guilty of the
charge on which he is being tried in
the circuit court was made this morn
ing by Attorney C. E. Sturtz at the
conclusion of the testimony offered by
the state, but was denied by Judge E.
C. Graves.
Attorney Sturtz in his motiol said
that the evidence offered by the state
tended to show that the crime &c rape
had been committed, while the man
was being tried on a charge Of crime
against children. Judge Graves, in ex-
planning his ruling, said that in his
mind the state had introduced evil
dence showing conclusively that the
crime with which the man was charg-
ed had been committed and that the
testimony of the two little girls. Caro-
line Rind and Marie Smith, had been
very clear on this. Accordingly the
trial continued.
COrcoran Denies Everything.
CorcOran was the first witness called
in his own defense. He proceeded,
under the questioning of his attorney,
to deny every charge made against
him by the little girls and to brand the
whole story as a falsehoOG. he claim
ed to be able to remember that en- the
two different days on which the state
accused him of having committed the
crimes for which he is now on trial,
that he was not at the butter rub fac
tory and did not see either of the chill
dren. At noon court adjourned till 2
p. m. Monday, when the trial will be
resumed.
