MRS. CARMAN IS
CONTRADICTED
BY NEGRO MAID

MiNEoLA. l.. l.. July i5.-The
carman case still monopolixed the
grand iury's attention here today.
The prosecution considered that
the evidence OF Celia Coleman, the
Carmans' negro maid. Tuesday, had
strengthened it's case against Mrs.
Florence Carman.
Celia contradicted Mrs. Carman's
story that she was upstairs In her
Freeport home at the time the shot
was fired through the window OF
her husband's-Dr. Edward Car
man's-office. which killed his pa,
tient. Mrs. Louise Bailey.
The negress' version was that she
heard first the crash OF glass and
the shot. and that Immediately AZ
terward Mrs. Carman came running
into the kitchen from the outside.
At the inquest Celia said she did
not see her mistress on the night OF
the murder from dinner time until
10 minutes after the shooting.
