that. whatever happened, she did
not want to be separated from the
four children at home of which she
is the mother. The only request
that she had to make of the state
was that she be permitted to return
TO her home last evening, she prom
ising to stay there and not run
away. Mr. Hannis told her he re-
GREETED he was unable TO let her
out. but he asked the Jail manage

about whom Mrs Murray seemed
honestly exercised, was allowed to
play around in the jail yard and not
confined in the cell all the time.
Posed AS BoWman's Wife
Mrs. Murray, in the course OF the
examination, admitted that she had
posed at times as the wife of Bow
man using the name OF Elsie Bow
man" on some documents. She de
MED consistently, however, that she
had ever done anything or said any
thing to Bowman which would lead
to hope that she would marry him
II her husband were dead; and she
added that she would not consider
him as a sutton now At the same
time she said she believed Bow
mans motive was a desire to have
her freed Of her husband in order
that he might pay suit to her. She
denied any display of undue famili-
arity with Bowman. and said he and
her husband had always been, ap.
parently good friends, although she
knew OF the secret jealousy OF
Bowman towards Murray.
The state will next give Bowman
an opportunity 10 tell his story, and
it was indicated last evening that
the examination might be made late
today. Both Mrs. Murray and Bow
man originally denied all knowledge
OF the crime, and the first direct and
positive clues came through the
story OF Mrs Murray Yesterday ev-
ening. and on this basis the state
proposes TO proceed to fix the guilt
on the right party.
Prosecuting Attorney Hannis yes
terday made IL plain to Mrs. Murray
in the fret examination that some
one in the Murray home was gull
" OF the murder OF her husband by
poison, and he said he was merely
cndeavoriug to fix the guilt. State
ments as to the presence OF the
poison in the dead mans stomach,
and the information that Bowman
had purchased strychnine in Sykes.

were strong indications OF the
Guilt, and while Mrs Bowman at
first would not 90 beyond the point
~ "thlukine" that Bowman might
have done IT. although she had no
knowledge Of It. she finally gave In.
She stated that Bowman had told
her several times that he would like
10 get rid OF Murray, and she said
he had tried II on a number Of oc-
casion5 although she enumerated
only tho arcs re- 'to4 previously.
