State Opens
Argunentin
Orpet Trial

Waukegan, Ill, July 10.-Eugene M.
Runyard, who hitherto had played q
silent part in the prosecution of VIII
liam II. Orpet, charged with the muir
der of Marian Lambert, became the
center of interest in Judge Donnelly's
court today, when he made the open
ing argument for the state. OTpet, the
lawyer declared, was a sullen youth,
vain and without character. His mot
ives for the murder were plain, and,
according to the attorney, his every
act from the alibi letters to his flight
from Helms woods on Feb. 9, leaving
Marians body in the snow, d guilty
act. Marian, who had loved and
trusted and been betrayed, he said, was
now in his way. She spelled exposure
to Orpet, she stood in the way of his
career and in the way of his marriage
to Celestia Younker, Mr.. Runyard as
serted.
On the other hand, he continued,
Marian had every reason to live and in
every act to the moment of her death
gave every evidence that she did. Her
head was full of plans for the future.
She wrote the day before her death to
her Sunday school teacher. Miss Min
ME Rumsey, that she would see her at
a little party planned for the Satur-
day which came after her death. She
planned to go to college, too. At her
birthday party, Feb. 8, the lawyer re-
lated, she was the gayest of the gay,
according to every girl present, save
one-JOsephine Davis.
When she met Orpet she had her
school books under her arm, ready
for the days lessons. Was that, asked
the lawyer, the preparation of a girl
walking knowingly to her death? And
Orpet? Were his preparations for the
meeting equally innocent? demanded
the speaker. They were not, he an
swered, but bore every imprint of an
elaborate plot to escape consequences
of the crime on which he was bent
Mr.. Runyard pointed to the rumpled
bed at Madison, meant to deceive his
landlady as to his secret trip; to the
borrowed overcOat which he wore no
place except to Lake Forest and, as the
most guilty act of all, to the alibi let
tiers to Marian and to his mother.
Grant which we do not, that the
defendant might wish to deceive his
parents as 10 a comparatively innocent
truancy, how in the name of reason are
we to account for the letter to Mar
ian?" said Mr.. Runyard.
Just so sure as Marian Lambert
lies in her grave he knew she would
never read il and he did know that il
would be read by those who inquired
into her death.
When that inquiry was made he
wanted it to appear that he was at
Madison There lies the damning
fact which no chemical symbols can |
obscure and no bottle of mOlasses and !!
water can hide"

CANADA STIRRED
BY SUB ARRIVAL

Ottawa, Ont, July 10.-The Canad-
ian government is considering the new
situation in regard to nickel, created
by the arrival of the German submar-
inc Deutschland at Baltimore. Canada,
which largely controls the nickel pro-
ductiOn of the world, has allowed the
shipment of this metal to the United
States on condition that the Interna-
tiOnal Nickel company so control
distribution that none could reach the
central powers
Announcement that the German sub
marine proposes to take back a cargo
of nickel has been heard with some
concern by the Canadian authorities
The Deutschland's arrival has revived
agitation for an embargo against eX-
portation of any Canadian nickel mat
ter to the United States for refinement.
