WITH DOUBLE
MURDERS ON TRIAL.
LEDGER SPECIAL.
Columbia, Mo-, March IL.
Affairs in the Moore murder case,
here. took on a different color, to-
day. Most all of the witnesses for
the State have been examined and
no motive for Lee Moore numbering
his mother and grandmother has been
brought out.
Witnesses for the defense began
their testimony today The line of
defense is that Moore was always
kind and considerate to HIS mother
and that he supported her, Further.
the defense will bring out that
Moore's nose blod while he was in
his room at the hotel, hence the
bloody towel, there.
Public sentiment, which has here
%tofore been against the prisoners,
seems to be changing largely. An
immense crowd composed largely of
women fills the Circuit Court.
Could q sane man murder his moth
Ter?
What criminal would brutally kill
both his mother and grandmother
with an ak to inherit their little
home that he might marry the girl
he loved?
These questions interest universe
ty psychologists and puzzle Colum-
bia citizens, as they watch the trial.
now going on, OF Henry Lee Moore,
accused Of the murder Of his mother,
81 years old. and his grandmother,
81, on the night OF December IL.
The crime was committed at the
Moore home, on the outskirts of Co
lumbia. Moore, himself, ~professed
to discover the bodies on the morn
OF December IS, when he returned
home from Moberly, where he had
been employed as a blacksmith's helr
or. Later Investigations showed he
had come to Columbia the night be.
fore and registered at a hotel under
an assumed name.
Blood stains were found on the
sheets and on his clothing, and an
ak, covered with blood was found in
a rayine beyond the house. In
Moore's possession were love letters
from a 15-year-old Columbia girl
who later testified she had refused
to marry him because he had nc
home OF this own.
An ambition to become a great
criminal is a theory advanced, FOL
Moore claims to be a student o
crime. has clippings OF and is famil
jar, with many famols murder cases
and says he has visited morgues ii
- Louis to look at the bodies.
But Moore himself. az he stands b,
hind the cell bars exclalms emphatic
ally. God knows I'm an innocent man
Whoever could kill his mother? Mex
week at the trial it'll all come out
cant say now who Is guilty, but
We'll surprise them then"

mainder arrived in a condition that re-
quired heroic treatment to save their
lives. According to this 1t may be pre-
sumed that the agony endured by hui
mans when the ship begins to pitch
and roll is as nothing compared with
the same sufrerings of tank inclosed
fish. AS precaution the fish are fed
practically nothing for at least one day
before being taken on board. The gal
vanized iron tanks in which the fish
are carried contain from ten to fifty
gallons Of sea water kept at a constant
temperature of about 60 degrees by
steam from the ships boilers during
the trip.
