VITAL QUESTION

r ,,'7 Either Side. !.

Waukegon, ILL.,, June 15.-Dr. Ralph
Webster, a toxicoIogist of information
al reputation, introduced as a witness
for the state, in the trial OF Will Or
pet, the University of Wisconsin stu
dent charged with the murder OF Mar
ion Lambert, was the chief witness
heard today. His testimony tended to
show that the poison which killed the
Lambert girl was taken in liquid form.
The question of whether the poison
was administered in liquid or crystal
form is vital to both sides.
Following the testimony OF Dr. Web
ster, the defense brought out point
said to be unique in the history Of
criminal jurisprudence. 1t was: 'ls
the moisture produced by introducing
a foreign body into a warm room SUI
ficient to transform powdered cynalde
of potassium into a solution light
enough to lose its visibility?"
The decision regarding this point
will have decided bearing on numer-
GUS stains which were found on the
girls clothes and body and which are
said by the states attorney to be from
cynaide of potassium in liquid form.
There was a dramatic moment in
the court room during the afternoon
session, when the hats, shoes and all
the other garments worn by Miss
Lambert on the day of the death
were produced.
In sustaining an objection by the
defense, Judge Donnelly ordered that
only the garments on which the stains
could be found should be admitted as
exhibits
The state attempted to show that
death was caused by the use of the
poison in liquid form. because of the
natural position of the body when
found. DR.. Webster said, however,
that large doses of either the liquid
or crystal form would cause death
without convulsions. DR.. Webster
will resume his testimony tomorrow.

HUGHES WELCOMES
MANY VISITORS

New York, June 15.-Pledges and
promises and predictions continued to
pour into the ears of Charles E.
Hughes today from many Republican
leaders and rank and file OF the party.
So many callers crowded into the tenn
porary headquarters that the nominee
virtually, had no time for conferences,
but spent nearly the entire day well
coming visitors.
Party plans apparently still are in
abeyance so far as the immediate
work of the campaign is concerned.
Mr.. Hughes reiterated today his inten-
ton not to comment on political is
sues until his official notification of
nomination. which probably will be
subsequent to July 4.

Minneapolis, Jan. r. --- Charles d.
Etchison's face was ashen, his voice
tank almost to a whisper and only

As he swore on the witness stand that
Frederick T. Price struck the blow

pushed her over the cliff beneath St.

AS the thudding blow with which,
according to the testimony, Mrs.
Prices skull was crushed. was de-

his chair. Only the tense silence of
the hundreds who crowded the court
room made 1t possible for the witness
to be heard-the spectators edged
forward pressingly, eagerly, until only
semi-circnlar space round the
witness stand was vacant
Takes Stand Unexpectedly.
Etchison took the stand UNEXPECTED
ly in the morning. All the rest of the
cay he sat, speaking as rapidly as
possible, telling in detail the plot he
says Price formulated. Weeks before
Mary Fridley's death, Etchison says
Price first spoke of making away with
his wife and time and again preached
the subject anew to him.
Finally, Etchison asserted, Price
insisted that he must take part for
with Etchison as witness, Price be-
lieyed, as Etchison testified he would
be safe from prosecution Etchison
said Price threatened to take his fur
niture from him and wreck his home

at the thought of so much more money
that would be his.
