The DORR TRIAL
For The Murder of Marsh Of
Lynn Opens al Salem.
The Animus Said TO Be 10 Sc
cure Control Of Trust Fund.
Scene of Murder Viewed and the
Taking Of Testimony Begun.

Salem, Mass, Feb. 1S.-Taking of
testimony in the trial of William A.
DOR of stockton, Cal, who is charged
with numbering George E. Marsh, Il
wealthy resident of Lynn, was begun,
late today, following the opening ad-
dress of District Attorney Harry c.
AttWill.
Earlier in the day, the jurors were
taken to Lynn, where they viewed the
spot on the West Lynn marshes, where
the body was found and other places
associated with the crime. The motive
for which, the prosecution contends
was the fact that Marsh held in trust
a fund which on his death would re-
vert to Miss Orpha Marsh of Stockton,
an aunt of the defendant. The prosecut-
ing officer described the finding of the
body of Marsh, whom, he said, had not
an enemy in the world, so far as
kneBn, on the marshes on the morning
Of April L. 1872. The body bore four
wounds, apparently made by bullets
from a 32-calibre automatic revolver.
Marsh left his home on Highland
avenue, Lynn, on the afternoon of
April H. he said, and after visiting
q tailor shop, continued toward Cen
trail cuuare. At 3.45 he was seen enter
ing. an automobile and was never aft
erWard seen alive
When he left home Marsh carried a
cane. That evening, a cane, later identi-
fed as his, was found on the boulevard
not far from the spot where the body
was discovered With it was a cap.
THE commonwealth declares that
this cap was DORIS, Mr.. Attwill said.
"The commonwealth Will also show
that Dorr had previously invited Mr..
March TO ride with him in his automo-
bile, hut later declined.
Discussing DORIS movements previ-
Gus to the murder the district attor-
ney said that ne sold his bicycle
business at Stockton, Cal, March ID,
1872, and soon after deposited $500
in a bank at Los Angeles. Later, he
said, Dorr came to Boston and OPEN
ed an account at a Boston bank. ON
April 6, he purchased an automobile
in Boston, paying $3.50 cash and Civ
ing note for the balance.

tional committees in several states had
shown that these organizations have

Superintendent Perkins declared
that they formed cliques among the
scholars and arranged for the assign

This is starting our children too early
in politics. said Mr.. Perkins. These
scholars are bound together by oaths.
and | say that boys and girls in the
High school, from the ages of II to Is
are altogether too young for such
practices as this"
While there has been an improve

Perkins said the purposes of the or
