Renner sharply orratsncd the
methods used for obtaining confess
sions from Williams. He said that
| II was reported to him that when
Williams signed n statement he was
dopcd, and that his remark before
that were made after matters hha
been mlsreprosented to him.
The treatment OF Williams by
Low was also critized, He said that
the prisoner. from the time he had
his photograph taken, showing
wounds on his body, was shut on
from tho rest OF the jail inmates and
given anything but proper treat
ment.
| A certificate from the supcrinten-
J dent OF the insane asylum ut Provo.
Utah. introduced by Rennar. stated
that Williams mother has been In
the asylum for 81 years. and Is SIN
there. Renner held that the opln'
ion Of alienists is that Williams has
Ihomicidal maniac tendencies, and
that he thought II would be far bet
ter to send him TO the penitentiar,
for the rest OF his days, than tt
have him stand trial. be adjudgcc
insane, and spend his life In n mad
house.
Following the statement by Ren
ner, Irwin made the states conclnd
ing statement to the court, In this
he endeavored to explode the insan
ity theory Referring to the examin

Irwin also claimed that th'
wounds on Williams body. examined
several days after arrest. gave al
evidence OF being seif-inflicted.
