TRIAL OF MRS. ANGLE
 FOR MANSLAUGHTER.
Five Physicians Testified, Four Agreed Injuries Could Be Sustained by Fall.

Bridgeport, Conn.,. March 4.-An as- sertion by pr. Bruce s. Weaver of New York, who performed the autopsy on the body of Waldo R. Ballou, who was killed in Stamford last June, that he could not conceive how all the in- juries, including fracture of the skull, which Ballou suffered, could have been received from a fall downstairs, as suggested in questions by the counsel for the defense, featured the trial here today of Mrs. Helen NJ. Angle of Stam- ford, charged with manslaughter in connection with the death.
 Ballou was found dying in front of the building where Mrs. Angle lived on an upper floor.
 Five physicians. including Dr. Weav- CT, were put on the stand by the state and each was asked to describe the fracture and the condition of the body at the autopsy. Four of the physicians admitted that injuries might have been due to a fall. Dr. Weaver was on the stand for more than two hours and went at great length into technical de tails of the autopsy. Judge N. C. Downs of counsel for the defense read to him from the record of his testimony at the coroner's inquest. The witness said that while he had testified at that time that all of the injuries might be explained by fall. he was not now of that opinion and could not conceive how they could have all been caused by a fall. Under further questioning he said, however, that he would not deny that they might have been so received
 When Dr. Weaver was excused Harold A. Parsons. a civil engineer of Stamford, was called by the state to explain a map he had made of the Angle apartments and the stairway leading to them. This he did in de- tail, describing also various spots and oY, S%o nd xuLi ioJ, he said appeared to be blood, and also prints of bare feet which he said were also outlined in what appeared to him to be blood.
