Saw Man Run From Scene
Rudolph Loewe, first witness called
to-day, testified that he was on his way
to DIR. Carman s office and within IF
teen feet of the window when the shot
which killed Mrs. Bailey was fired
boewe heard the shot, looked up and
saw a man run across the lawn and
leap over the fence.
Loewe said, after he had heard the
shot and seen the man jump over the
fence, he looked into DR.. Carman IS of.
flee and saw the doc.or with a woman
in his arms.
There were two women in front of
the house, Loewe added. He also saw
man he did not know standing in the
vestibule to the DOCTORS office
" How near were you to the two
women you saw on the steps?'' Mr..
Smith asked
"About fifteen feet Loewe re.
piled. He said the man he saw was
my height and not so thick
Witness Was Very Deaf
Justice Kelby had to leave his seat
on the bench and stand beside the wit
ness chair to shout his questions.
Loewe was quite positive that not
withstanding his infrmity he had heard
the shot.
Justice Kelby asked him how long he
had looked into the doctor office and
he said about 80 seconds. Then he
left, but before doing so he saw a door
open and woman in white enter the
office. By that time the woman who
had been shot was lying on the floor.
John j. Dunbar, a Freeport police
man, testified that after the murder he
brought bloodhounds to the Carman
house. He said he found the broken
picket in the fence, mentioned in the
testimony yesterday: The picket was
opposite the broken window, he said.
On the premises next door he found
near the fence a place where a man $
foot had been; apparently the man had
been standing there for some time.
Bloodhounds Lost Trail
After bringing the bloodhounds to
the house Dunbar said he took them
to the trampled ground and they went
from there to the broken picket. Then
the dogs were allowed to smell the win
dow sill. They growled, ran all the
way around the house, came up to the
place in the fence where the picket was
broken, left the premises and went west
as far as Lynnbrook, three miles away,
where they stopped, having lost the
trail

they succeed in eluding capture, from
taking strong defensive positions
near the frontier.
Large bodies of fresh troops arc
understood to have been sent forward
to assist in the pursuit and many
