MRS. KING NOT
 A SUICIDE, SAYS
 MEDICAL EXPERT

1 Concord, N. C., Nov. 30.-Dr. W. H.
 Burmeister, coroner's physician oi Cook county, Illinois, testifying fol the state on cross examination in the trial of Gaston B. Means, charged with the murder of Mrs. Maude A.
 King, said today that the pistol that 1 inflicted the wound causing Mrs Kings death was not in contact with the head when fired. T. Cansler of counsel for the defense brought from
 the witness repeated and emphasized declarations of his opinion that it
 would have been physical impossi-
 bility for a woman of Mrs. King g stoutness to have held a pistol in the position necessary to cause the
 wound.
 Cross examination, redirect exam ination and re-cross examination of pr. Burmeister delayed the expected introduction by the state of Mrs. Anna l.. Robinson, mother of Mrs. i King.
 ] Dr. Otto Schultze of New York was called to the stand shortly before non.
 1 Dr. Schultze, answering a hypothet- fcal question based on the descrip- ton of the wound given by pr. Bur- meister, testified that in his opinion it would have been impossible for
 Mrs King to inflict the wound that caused her death. He also said that
 the fracture of Mrs. Kings ankle had occurred before death.
 On request of MT. Candler, Dr. schultze, pistol in hand, demonstrated
 to the jury why he regarded it as
 possible for the wound in Mrs. Kings
 head to have been sef-indicted.
 Now that is the way you would 1 it: but couldn't somebody else do il

its destruction did not justify the war
It would have been infinitely less
wastefnl OF life to have withheld the
