Mrs. Carman Issues Statement in
Which She Said She Was

NOT 1NSANELY JEALOUS"
BY Astocintcd Press

Freeport. N Y, July 1S.-Plans TO-
the immediate future occupied the at
tention to-day of Mrs. Florence Car
man, who yesterday was released from
the county Jail at Mineola in $4,000
bail for trial this Fall under a grand
jury indictment charging granddaughter
in the first degree in connection with
the murder of Mrs. Louise Bailey.
With her husband, DR.. Edwin Carman,
and daughter Elizabeth, Mrs. Carman
planned to start to-day or tomorrow
on an automobile tour to Philadelphia,
Atlantic City and the Delaware Water
Gap. The Carmans expected to be gone
about month, spending a part of the
time on their farm near the Delaware
Water Gap.
In statement Mrs. Carman told
for the first time her story-the story
she sought to tell the Nassau county
grand jury, but which that body re-
fused to hear. This she declared was
unfair.
The statement, besides detailing her
movements on the night of the murder
of Mrs. Bailey in her husbands office,
contains a denunciation of the detec-
tives employed by the district attorney
and declaration that she has no fear
of acquittal unless they frame me
up"

Not Insanely Jealous

Mrs. Carman in the statement said
that 1t was not true that she was in
sanely jealous, as the newspapers lead
people to believe" She explained she
was merely curious saying that the
fact of the matter is that l had been
on numerous occasions with my hus-
band at varnous affairs, and had many
a good time with him. But on such
occasions people would route him
about his many girls and hint that
the doctor was a regular devil I
simply made up my mind to find out
what was the truth in those remarks.

People often said to him in my

You can go out at all hours of the
night or any time of the day. You
have an office where no one can see
what's going on and what you are
doing. And so 1 put in the tee-

In conclusion Mrs. Carman declared
her determination to remain in Free
port after her trial.

pretty, old fashioned style when it
coTrides with the rough-and- ready,
crouching, boring-in, clinch-and
muss- him-up style of so many sue
cessful American fighters.
Every now and then you will hear
it said that those Englishmen can
box, but they can't fight.
Welsh's work Tuesday night was
as sweeping a refutation of that con-
tention as need be.
THE British champion has a beau
1 tiful fighting style, and he has
combined with the fine, straight
punching of the English school an
effective brand of infighting that GER
tainly originated on this side of the
water.
The most unlearned spectator at
the bout could hardly have failed to
note the consistency with which
Welsh was inside his opponent in all
the close work, as well as the terri
BILE effect of his clean, straight jabs.
His timing-a lost art with the ma
!ority of American boXers-was SUI
perb. Continually he would start his
punch at the same time with Whit
neys, get the blow home inside, and
add to its initial force the impact
with which Whitney was coming in.
DISCUSSING the bout later, Welsh
- said he was rea sonably certain he
could have put Whitney out had he
cut loose with all he had.
There are several reasons why
that was not the thing to do said
