SEEKING TO SHOW THERE WAS
CONSPIRACY - STRONG
LOCAL FEELING.

Wheeler. Jan. 2.-The state is
continuing the effort to establish the
fact of murder in connection with the
death of w. II Menzie. manager of
the Farmers Cooperative Lumber
company, and of Miss Blanche Sig
nal, the company's bookkeeper. III
is also seeking to prove the crime
was an outside Job.
Frank Humphrey. yard superin-
tendent of the lumber company. one
of the first arrivals at the scene of
the lumber yard fire last April and
long a trusted employe of Menzie,
told a we'll connected story of his
grewsome discovery in the fire ruins.
His testimony, however, is calculatet
to prove only that Menzie and the
Signal girl were murdered and not
to fasten the crime on Robert F.
Brooks, the defendant.
Humphrey told OF learning of the
fire during the intermission at the
iremen's ball, and how his first
thought was Of his home and of his
child. left in the care of it's grand
mother. He told of penetrating the
lumber office and encountering the
charring remains of the human
bodies. Menzie and the girl; he then
told of the condition of the bodies
and the situation in the office after
the flames had been extinguished.
Humphrey made two Intellectual
efforts before definitely discovering
the body of Menzie. II felt with my

found in the wreck, were introduced
In evidence. Humphrey testified that

wrists of Miss Signals body were

similarly trussed, but the hands were
free. The defense gained from
Humphrey the admission that the
KEYS of the office doors were found
near Menzie, that Menzie's revolver
was not customarily loaded and hat
1t was kept in a desk drawer.
Vernon Vanderburg, aged Is, tes-
tilted of passing the lumber office at
9:15 o'clock on the night OF the
tragedy. He said he saw a fame I'M
uer the office door and heard a crash
as of falling glass, which he believed
to be a window breaking. His pony
took fright and raj away, he said,
and he did not mention the incident

Mrs. F. L. Larson, motherinlaw of

The intensity of bitter feeling
against the prosecution in certain
quarters here is partially attributed
by States Attorney A. B. Beck to per-
sonal animosity against him. He has
been a vigorous prosecutor and espe-
cially active against Bookkeeping ard
gambling. During his term in office
t~wenty-three persons have been sent
from Charles Mix county to the peni-
Tertiary. Beck's term in office ex-
pires in four days, but he has an

til il is finished. Attorney Il. l..
Wagner is examining the witnesses
for the state. Attorneys for the de-
Tense assert that business troubles
may have furnished Menzie a motive
for suicide. 1t is further asserted
that the lumber company was insol-
vent. There are 800 farmer stock
holders in the concern.
