Detective Examined.

Detective Chase was examined close
" by the defense on his testimony Of
yesterday. He described in detail the
finding of the body after his attention
was called TO the case On the morning
of October 5, 1912; and told Of the ap-
pearance of the autombilc, He said
the lighting wires had been ripped from
the lamps, putting them out of commits
sion. He examined the ground in the
vicinity of the automobile for tracks
of human beings, and found none. He
searched for weapons in the automobile
and in the weeds about and found none,
The detective gave the name of n. f.
Frankland, 327 Express avenue, as that
of the, man who had stopped the street
car and told him of the dead man on
the automobile.
DR.. H. B, Sprague, who was sum.
moned to police headquarters to make
body, described the wounds he had
found in the preliminary inspection. His
inspection was not detailed. but gen,
eral in character. He described rough"
ly two bullet wounds. one of which
passed through the head from behind,
emerging from the center Of the fore.
head, and another passing horizontally
through the neck, entering an inch and
half below the left ear. and emerging
right side of the mock There were
three lacerated wounds on the scalp.
one of which was evidently made after
White was shot. One of these had laid
the scalp open for length of four
inches. All were inflicted with a blunt
instrument. The neck was powder
burned, showing that the muzzle of the
weapon was close to the body when the
shot was fred.
Physicians Differ.
DR.. sprague gave it as his opinion
that the bullets were Of the sfmush.
room" type. He said, however, that
he was not an expert on guns and gun
powder, but gave 1T as his best judg.
ment that the bullets were of the kind
indicated.
DR.. a. N. Hanson, county physician,
a brother of Attorney Willard Hanson
of the defense, testified as to the
wounds that caused White s death. The
bullet that entered at the back of the
head and emerged from the middle of
the forehead, ranged upward. DR.. Han
son differed in his opinion from DR..
the wounds carefully and found no
trace Of lead, which inclined him to tho
opinion that steel bullet had been
used,
The cross-examination of DR.. Hanson
was not taken up. the defense waving
that right temporarily but refusing to
relinguish the right permanently. He
will probably be placed on the stand
again tomorrow.
Elmer l.. Qunltrough, au undertaken.
testified that he had transferred
White body from the emergency hos.
pital at police headquarters, to his un-
dertaking establishment, where the
autopsy was performed later by DR..
Hanson. The body was afterward taken
to Denver for burial.
Brother on Stand.
Charles II. White, a brother OF
Thomas T. White, told of having been
to tho police headquarters,
where he saw the body Of his brother. !
He described the transfer of the body
TO the undertaking esta blishmeDt. where
he saw it again on two OF three occa- I
sions. White was excused by the state

Objection Overruled.

The court oyerruled the objection of
the defense and DR.. Sprague, who had
been asked how long, In his opinion,
Thomas Eddie White, whom the state
alleges was murdered by Inflow, had
been dead when the physician had ex-
amined his body at police headquarters,
was directed to answer.
~ cannot say how long he had been
dead" said DR.. Sprague, and then the
lawyers smiled because Of the useless
tempest thoy had raised temporarily.
The state continued to present
the testimony upon which it depends
in it's efforts to definitely fasten the
crime with which the former Bingham
schoolmaster is charged, to his shoulders.
Two physicians, one policeman, q sur"
veyor, an undertaken and the brother
Of the dead man were the witnesses OF
the day. The policeman was Detective
George Chase, who was ross-examined;
the surveyor was J. Z. Mackey Of the
county surveyor S staff, who presented
and identified a complete map, with
measurements between different points
indicated on the map as having impor
tant bearing on the trial; the Hnder
tal1er was Elmer NJ. Qualtrough, to
whose establishment the body of White
was taken; the physicians were DR.. II.
B. Sprague, assistant health commits
sioner of the city, and DR.. A. N. Han
son, county physician, and the remain
ing witness was Charles II. White.

Four Standards.

In all, more than 900 essays were sub
mitted the committee. When the process
OF elimination was completed. the com
mittee found It necessary to award an
additional prize with the four offered by
the federation, five OF the efforts being
deemed equally deserving. In making
the award. the following points were con-
sidered: ~ Originality; (2) vigor of ex-
preston; t3l concrete statements. and
(4 sustained Ideas. Many essays Of ex-
cellent expression and polish were re-
Jected as giving evidence that, the au-
thors had received assistance
The efforts OF the five students to re-
ceive awards-Ruth Senior, Nicholas
Crawford, Katherine Marshall, Aileen
Taylor and Lloyd Hufraker-were cIassed
by the committee as equally meritorious,
no distinction being made in the ord er
IN which the prizes We're awarded
A surprising depth of thought was
shown by the ccntenders, and some origi-
nal and beautiful expressions were used.
Ruth Seniors paper contained, among
others. tho following striking phrases:

MRS. BEACH TRIES
TO FREE HUSBAND
Negro Her Assailant, She Con-
tinues TO Maintain on
Stand Today.

AIKEN, S. c., Feb. camilla
Morse HaVemeyer Beach, the wife of
Frederick O. Beach the wealthy New
Yorker, who is on trial on the charge
of having stabbed her February 26
last, will take the stand today as a
witness for the defense.
Before starting for the court with
her husband and lawyers this morn
ing, Mrs. Beach laughed and chatted,
saying she was ready to testify and
felt sure she could convince the jury
she was telling the truth that it was
negro who slashed her and not her
husband, as the State charges.
The court again was crowded to-
day long before opening time by
members of the fashionable winter
colony here. But it was freely pre-
dicted there would be an acquittal,
probably by tonight, judging from
the nature of the evidence given by
the States witnesses yesterday
The State put on the stand eight Of
it's most important witnesses, persons
living close to the Beach cottage.
None OF these saw the attack. All
that they could tell was what they
heard and observed afterward.
Little or nothing was put forward
to break down Mrs. Beachs original
story of the attack, which was that
while she was taking her dogs out
for a walk a negro stepped up to her.
and, after few words about having
a note for one of her maids, seized
and stabbed her

SUMMER BALL Up
TO COMMISSION
Amateur Rules Anticipated
Says President Hermann,
Of B. B. Board.

CINCINNATI, o., Feb. 5.-The Ma
tional Baseball Commission at its
next meeting will discuss the ques-
ton of amateur athletics and will
seek to revise the present rules,
which declare an amateur athlete 4
professional if he plays professional
baseball, according to a statement by
August Hermann, president of the
national commission, her today. The
discussion Is the result of the recent
Thorpe ruling.
The stand which the rulers of
amateur athletics take against pro-
fessional baseball" said President
Hermann today, rs d relic of the
dark ages Thirty or thirty-fve years
ago the professional ball-player were
regarded with suspicion and marked
prejudice. Unpleasant memories Of
the Hall-Devlin-N Nichols Craver scan
dial of 1877 still chung to the game and
its representatives,. 1t was while the
game was still in this unhappy po-
sition that the laws that still govern
amateur athletics were formulated.
Baseball since those times has adj
vaneed to the standing of integrity
and public confidence; the amateur
laws have, practically, stood stock
still.
"rhe college boy who goes out and
plays ball in the summer months
should not be confronted with the
alterna tive of either deliberate false
hoods or the penalties now inflicted
by the amateur rules.
Both common justice and the
honor we owe the game demand that
some early action should be taken
and the governing forces of baseball
should be the first to cope with the
situation. OF course. the time be-
tween now and the schedule meeting
is limited; concerted and definite ac-
ton may not be possible-but VIC
can at least foi mulate plans for the
Immediate future"
