been in the temporary recruiting ser
vice. This selection will not be made
until the department of the East has
disposed OF the complications fol-
lowing the release of Captain Jack
son.
The best field inspection passed BY
the regiment since camp was formed
was that Of today. All the units had
the required equipment. with the eX-
ceptlon Of the Third battalion, which
has not received few articles nee
essary before it is reasonably
equipped, These will be issued to-
morrow.
Because of the few United States
army orders. actual information con-
corning operations of the West Yir-
Ginla troops is not forthcoming for
even the officers. 1t is said unOf-
fcially that the organization con
talns more officers of the rank of
captain than can be used in compli-
ance with the regulations. The sit
uation will be corrected in time but
just uON Aut luthllS VI GOl lCNllOll al =
problematical.
Investigation in several instances
have shown that some of the men,
whose relatives are making the most
insistent efforts to have them dis
charged, are better off in every par
ticular in the military service than if
they were at home. In many in
stances actual restitution has follow
ed the enlistment of men with FAM
lilies. 1t was estimated today that
one out of every five men in the
regiment is married, and the major
ity Of these left nothing at home
with which to support their families.
These are the ones who are to be
given organized assistance so long as
the soldiers are in service.
The program for camp tomorrow
is short. Chaplain ". T. Willis will
conduct services, and there will be
reglmental parade, without band,
in the afternoon.

singer, a friend employed in drug
store at Madison, obtained cyanide OF
potassium from an alleged supply in
the greenhouse on the Mccormick es-
tate, and made a solution Of It before
retiring to bed in the garage. 1t was
charged that he either forced Marion
to take II or deceived her with the eX-
PLANTATION that It was medicine.
The state was unable to persuade
an WITNESSES to come from Wisconsin,
and repeatedly limited that sinister
influence OF the defense was at the
bottom Of It. Hassinger. wanted with
reference to the bottle, was among
those who declined TO testify, and no
bottle or other container for the poi
son was even found. Otto Peterson
likewise became persistent absen-
tee, despite the need for his testimony
regarding the abb letters and as hay-
ing seen Orpet, according 10 the lat
ter, concoct the molasses and water.
State Experts Wrong.
DR.. Ralph W. Webster and Dr. W. j.
McNally, chemists, testified for the
state that Marion died OF liquid
cyanide OF potassium. and that the
spots on her coat were left by drops Of
the solution. Three defense chemists
testified that the poison was taken in
powder form and that the important
and accusatory cyanide In the green
house was not cyanide Of potassium at
all. but cyanide OF sodium, with only a
faint trace Of potassium. Dr. McNa!ly,
having made further experiments, vol
unfairly appeared for the defense and
corrected his previous testimony to
agree with that OF the defense, and
Or. Webster, recalled by the state, did
so in reply to hypothetical question
on cross-e examination.
1t was shown further without con-
tradiction by every chemist who had
n hand in the examination Of Marlon's
stomach contents that cyanide Of pOtas-
stun caused her death. Only an in
consequent trace Of sodium appeared.
When II was shown in addition that
to have taken in the amount Of cyanide
OF potassium found in her stomach, Ma
rOn would have to have eaten two
pounds Of the substance in the green
house. or to have drunk two quarts of
a solution made from It. It was admit
ted generally that this substance as the
instrument of death had disappeared
from the case.
Girl Familiar With Poison.
The fact that young Orpet might
have obtained the greenhouse cyanide
had its parallel in the laboratory Of
the Deeriicld high school attended by
Marion. The instrument Of murder
and the instrument of suicide were
equally available The laboratory sub
stance was ninety-seven per cent pure
cyanide of potassium. Marion, on the
day before her death, was alone in the
laboratory out Of hours in violation
of school rule.
The parallel Of knowledge Of cyanide
did not run so straight. Orpet, ac-
cording to his testimony. had not look
cd at a chemistry text book for two
years, while Marion's next lesson
which she was preparing included the
subject OF cyanide of potassium, Or
pet, however, knew of its use in the
greenhouse MS fumigator, and had read
an article on its use in horticulture.
