Charles City. Oct. 1s.-The state had
to materially change plans in the trial
OF E. E. Birney. charged with per-
forming an operation causing the death
Of Miss Myrtle Irish, ty the illness Of
County Attorney Moore. The plans
were that Mr.. Moore would open All
the case would be closed by Attorney
Mccoy, Of Waterloo, but the latter
opened.
Mr.. Mccoy started out in very
moderate speech but soon warmed up
TO the case and before he had conclud-
ed the jury, the Judge and the people
were accorded splendid construction
OF the evidence. At times the arraign-
ment Of the supposed criminal was
most severe. There was no mincing
matters and in the opinion Of the
speaker this practice was already too
common.
John Senniff. Of Mason City, will
make the concluding argument for the
defc>se. He has been closely connected
| with the case from is very inception
and much is expected Of him. On ac-
count Of the sickness Of the county
attorney he will not attempt to speak
but Attorney Mccoy will conclude.
There does not seem to be any change
