1t Looks Better for Anderson.


Conditions look little brighter
for William I. Anderson, accused of
shooting Frank B. Funk, cashier of
the First National bank at Wash
burn, Mclean county. Evidence SO
far is purely circumstantiaI. and
there are several things that point
| to the innocence of the defendant.
| In the first place. there is lack of
motive. Officers of the bank, where
Anderson was employed as clerk, say
that the personal and social relations
between the two men we're pleasant.
The defense claims that Funk was
the victim Of stray bullet coming
long distance; and that. had it
been otherwise. the high-powcr cart
ridge of which the 32-caliber ball
was q part would not have dropped
to The floor after passing through
the body, but would have gone
through the wall and could have
gone through two or three wooden
walls Of that kind. The shooting
occurred in broad daylight; and. had
Anderson fired the shot from WIN
dow of his residence. next to Mr..
funk's house and only forty feet
distant thcreGom, Mr.. Funk could
certainly have seen him. AS there
were no poWder-marks in the room
from the window of which it is
alleged the shooting was done If it
came from the Anderson window,
must have been fired with the
muzzIe of the gun thrust out of the
window. which was raised only
about six inches. IL it was thrust
out Of the window, Funk would al
most certainly have seen the gun and
the man back of it as he (Funk)
emerged from his kitchen door TO
pick up his child. who had fallen.
There are several other circum.
stances which the defense claims
will establish Anderson's innocence
when the case comes to trial.
