 Mrs. Carman was on the verge of a complete physical breakdown following her collapse in the courtroom after the l jury was discharged. She had been crying in her cell since last night when the jury retired.
 1 The trial was one of the most notable that has taken place in this vicinity in a long time.
 Mrs. Louise Bailey. a woman of ex- cellent reputation, the wife-of a pros 1 porous manufacturer and the mother | of a grown daughter, was killed while making call on Dr. Carman in the | latter's office in his house at Freeport on the night of June 90 last. The fatal bullet was fired through the woman's heart while she stood standing talking to the physician in his office. A broken 1 window pane showed where the slayer i had stood when the shot was fired. | From the very beginning the case was shrouded in deepest mystery. pr. | Carman declared that he had never met Mrs. Bailey. so far as he could re member, until she called at his office the night of the tragedy. So far as is , known there have been no develop ments to refute the physicians state ments in this particular. The reasons | for Mrs Bailey's visit to the physician l have remained unexplained. Her hom | was at Hempstead considerable dis | tance from Dr Carman's home and N- | flee, while her regular family physician resided much nearer. Before she left | her home Mrs. Bailey made no mention to any of the members of her family 1 that she intended to visit pr. Carman, nor had she complained of any ailment that would call for medical attention. l A week after the tragedy Mrs. Car man was taken into custody and ac- cused of the killing. The finger of sus- picion was first pointed at the physi- clans wife when it was learned that she had installed a dictagraph in her husbands office so' that she might learn what went on between him and his women patients. Other evidence was brought to light which indicated that Mrs. Carman had been insanely jealous of her husband
 1 At the time of her arrest Mrs. Car man made out a pretty good alibi She declared that she was upstairs in her own room at the time Mrs. Bailey was killed and did not go down until long after the shot was fired This was corroborated by the statements of her mother and sister, who also were up- stairs, and by her negro maid The latter, however, is said to have changed her testimony subsequently, and to have said that Mrs. Carman hurried into the back door and up the stairs l after the tragedy had been enacted.
 The immediate cause of Mrs. Car mans arrest was the testimony given at the coroners hearing by Ellwood T Bardes, an insurance solicitor. The story told by Bardes was substantially as follows:
 On the evening of the murder he de- termined to pay professional visit tc Dr. Carman. and allow him to dress a minor injury to one of his heels. Ar l irving at the physicians house, he de- cided he could dress the injury him.
