Mrs. Kaber Will
Take Stand in
Her0wn Behalf
Woman Charged With Murder
To Tell Storyr-Insanity
To Be Principal
Defense.

Cleveland, July 12.-Eva Gather
ire Kaber will take the witness
stand in her own behalf tomorrow
morning to combat the states con-
tention that she planned the murder
of her husband. Daniel F. Kaber,
according to announcement this
evening by Francis w. Poulson, her
personal attorney.
Mrs. Kaber, it was said, will. be
followed on. the stand by alienists,
who will testify as to her mental
condition. Insanity is Mrs. Kaber's
principal defense.
Prosecutor Stanton said that
whether the state will introduce tes-
timony to refute that of alienists de-
pends entirely upon the prominence
of the alienists and the testimony
they give. Should there be no re-
buttal, Mr.. Stanton said, he expected
all evidence to be in by tomorrow
evening and the case given to the
jury some time Thursday.
Decision to call Mrs. Kaber was
not made, it is understood, until a
number of defense witnesses had
faild to respond favorab1y to ques-
tions intended to show that Mrs.
Kaher was insane. Three witnesses,
however, did say they believed her
to be insane. They were her father,
John w. Brickel. her sister, Mrs.
Fl. A. McGinnis. and her uncle,
Matthew Brickel.
Through records cf the Cleveland
Humane society it was shown that
Mrs. Kaber. at the age of 16, had
been arrested on a'charge Of stealing
$85 and as result was sent to a
correctional institution. sThe state
offered no objection to- this testi-
mony. Neither did it offer objection
to having a hospital history of Mr..
Kaber introduced. Prosecutor STAN
ton asserted that both the Humane
society record and Nthe hospital rec
ord of Mr.. Kaber's physical condi-
ton only strengthen the case.
Only few questions of minor I'M
portance were asked the father by,
state attorneys. The aged parent
glanced only once toward his ac-
cused. daughter, as he occupied the
witness stand. That was when he
said he was the father Of the de-
fendant.
