DENIED MOTION
FOR ACQU|TTAL
Judge Refuses Favorable
Action on Request of
Small's Counsel
STATE RESTED IT'S
CASE THIS MORNING
Argument Made by Counsel for Defense
Was That No Evidence Had Been Pro
duced to Show Smal1's Connection
With Fire.

oSSIPEE, \. H., Jan. 5.-The state
rested today in the trial of Frederick L.
Small, charged with the murder of his
wife, Mrs. Florence A. Small, at their
home IN Mountain View on Sept. %. The
testimony which has been presented dur.
ing the past 10 days was entirely circum
stantlal William 5. Mathews, senior
counsel for the defense, Immediately asked
that Small be acquitted on the ground
that the evidence was not sufficient 10
warrant submission to the jury
Judge kivel, after hearing the argll-
ments, denied the motion and ordered the
defense TO present its case.
In support Of his motion for acouittal
SmalIs counsel argued that the state had
not produced sufficient evidence to prove
that Small could have caused a fire seven
hours after he left the house The defense
did not deny Mrs. Small was murdered.
counsel stated, but did deny that the
murder was committed by Small. The
acts Of defendant during the trip TO Bos-
ton up to the time he heard Of the fire
IN which his home was DESTROYED were
those OF a normal man enjoying himself as
a man could not do if he had committed
the crime alleged There was no evidence,
counsel contended that Small had any Of
the chemical compounds which prosecution
witnesses yesterday said were used TO
produce an intense and destructive fire in
the Small home, nor was there anv eyi-
dence that Small knew of any such chem
icals.
Attorney Sydney s Stevens. outlining
the defense. said that it would be shown
that the crime was committed at night
while Small was at Boston and not in the
afternoon. The door through which the
defendant left his home on the day Of the
murder was locked from the inside and
not by a spring lock. 1t would be shown
that Small never possessed a vibratory coil
such as would be necessary to use with
the spark plugs found in the ruins Of the
house and which, according to the state,
were a part Of the tire-setting device

TODAY'S WAR SUMMARY

The great drive of the Teutonic army
through Rumania is regarded as hav-
ing been virtually completed with the
clearing Of the Russians from Dobrud-
ia and the pushing back of the Russo
Rumanian forces the other side of the
Danube &c the line of the river Sereth.
Whether the thrust is to have further
consequences Of serious import to Rus
slams apparently hinges chiefly on the
results of battles now in progress along
the Sereth line itself.
While Field Marshal Won Macken-
sen is continuing his pressure on the
line in frontal attacks, the thanking
movements in the Moldavian noun
tains further to the North is being
kept up.
The activities on the Franco-Belgian
front are confined for the most part to the
artillery. This arm of the service was
busily employed last night on the Yer
dun front, Paris reports, this possibly
presaging a renewal of the important
infantry fighting that has broken out
there from time to time within the past
few weeks.
The latest British statement on oper-
ations in the front in France and Bel
gium mentioned particularly notable
artillery fire from German guns in the
vicinity Of Npfes, but the probabilities
are not considered great of any i'm
portant offensive movement Just at this
season in this sector.

GIRLS WOUNDS ARE

was more severely wounded, passed a
fairly comfortable night. He was un-
der police guard. Neither has made any

ing the young woman to marry him

mer member of the Boston symphony
orchestra and is 10. Reilly is "a and

ment they could obtain from Reilly
last night was: 81 did it because |
wanted TO die. - Miss Melzian was
found to have bullets in her right side
and wrist, while Reilly was shot three
times-in the forehead, abdomen and
thigh.
The chauffeur said that the man
engaged him at his stand in front of a
Back Bay hotel to take them to Brook
line. When nearing University road
where the girl lived, the chauffeur
heard shots and Immediately after
ward the girl opened the door of the
ear and ran up the street few hun
dred yards to her home. Reilly re.
manned in his seat, wounded, and the
chauffeur drove him to police head
quarters, where his condition was seen
to be so serious that he was removed
