"OEAR KID" LETTER
RULED IMMATER|AL
Beattie Defense Scores and
Loses Point Defend
ant Will Testify,
(National News Association

CHESTERFIELD, Va, Aug. 25.-
Defense in the Beattie trial scored one
point today when Judge Watson ruled
out of evidence the Dear Kid" letter,
which the defendant wrote to Beulah
Binford, enclosing money to pay on
furniture. The state had relied on the
letter to prove the first step in show
ing the alleged motive for the murder
of Mrs. Beattie was that he might live
with the Bonford girl. The defense
motion Immediately followed to quash
the indictment on the ground Of alleg-
ed error regarding the cause of the
death of the victim, was also overrul-
ed, making honors even. Detective
Karrell related on the witness stand
the story of how Beattie was tracked
on the night his wife was murdered
and the story related to him, Beattie
covering that nights tragedy. Paul
Reattie and Beulah Binford are both
here ready to testify, probably late this
afternoon.
Henry Clay Beattie, Jr., will take
the stand in his trial for the murder
of his wife, Louise, only as a last re.
sort to save him from the death chair
This was admitted today by Harry M
Smith, who is associated with Hill &
Carter, counsel for the defense.
There has been nothing in the de
velopments thus far to indicate such
a course will be necessary" he said.
Paul Beattie, the cousin of the de
PENDANT, upon whose testimony the
commonwealth deeply relies to con
vict Beattie, was the star witness Sc
lected by Prosecutor Gregory and his
assistant Wendenburg to take the
stand today.

charge Apkins was sent to the Jail

and 10 still being discussed pro and
con, even by the standard Ooil com.
pany.
The Connersville News says:
Some time ago Richmond and
other papers contained items pur-
porting to show that oil sprinkled on
streets was injurious to the eyes.
The news at that time asked local
oculist of long and extensive prac-
tice In regard to 1t and his answer,
in substance. was that the eyes are
injured far more by flying dust than
by oil and that he knew of no sub
stance In the oil when spread on
streets that would injure the eyes.
The Greenfield Reporter says:
The following is a copy of letter
received by M. Fl. Cant. who sent
newspaper clipping concerning an al
legged Ill effect on the eyes. OF putting
oil on the streets to 8. c. Drake. of the
standard OIL company. The letter Ia
written to Mr.. Drake by w. II. Leon
ard, manager of the chemical refining
department OF the Standard Oil COM
pany at Chicago. and IL as follows:
Chicago, August 8, 1911
"Mr. 8. C. Drake, Indianapolis.
Dear Sir:-I acknowledge yours
Of the 7th. together with newspaper
clipping regarding road oil being in

. number of articles In various papers
lately, all OF which have grown out of
a press notice clipping from some east
ern paper, which we have looked upon
a. q joke. hardly believe there is
anything In II at all.
"As you are aware, petroleum oil,
crude oils, and various products man
ufactured from petroleum oils, are US
Cd for healing purposes, and we have
never yet heard of an instance where
petroleum products tended to irritate
or affect the eyes. Even in the refin-
cry, where acids are used In connec-
ton with the cleansing Of the oils. ETC.,
we have never heard OF any particular
complaint of eye affections Of any
kind. Yours truly.

lance. Frazer's fondness for the girl
soon became strong and this morning
when he went to the factory his sweet
heart gave him postal card on which
was the photograph of herself and an
other young man, which was taken at
Glen Miller park last Sunday.
Concealing his emotions, Frazer
handed the photograph back to the
girl and at noon today decided to kill
himself. Prior to quitting time this
noon he wrote a note to Miss Clark
saying that because she had her pic
ture taken with another man it proved
to him conclusively that she did not
like him (Frazer) any more and that
everything was off, between them.
The girl thought nothing of the note
