Deaf Dumb, Unable To Write Or Use Mue'S Manual
Dummy" I1rventS Weird Signs In Murder Defense

not read, write or use the sign man
ual OF mutes
Thus bereft of all but the crudest
communion with his fellow prison
crs. he has nevertheless patiently set
himself the task OF acquainting
guard and convict with his impro-
vised symbols so that he may miti-
gate the doom he dramatically
sought TO avert at his recent trial.
Despite his many handicaps,
Dummy" Miller, according to the
cOnvicting testimony, managed to
acquaint officers. planted in his
cell, with details OF the murders.
This so-called confession" he siren
uously denied, saying. he had been
| forced by threats Of the moose to
make certain statements.
The bodies Of Adam Shank and
his family bullet riddled, were dis
covered in the farm home by George
A. Shank, a cousin. the day follow
ing the crime. The only clew, a
name scrawled upon the floor by the
MORALLY wounded father. had been
obliterated when the slayer care
fully swabbed the floors Of the death
house with a bloody mop.
Miller had been partner OF the
murdered man and was arrested In
a Denver hotel. Witnesses shat
tered his gestured alibi. His trunk
contained a newly cleaned revolver,
and he wore overshoes which, were
linked up with CORY footprints at the
scene OF the crime.
Handicapped by his ignorance of
all methods of conveying an i'm
preston, Miller invented universally
comprehended signs for objects and
persons. thoughts and acts. and
managed to convey to the jury his
own defense story, which was. how
ever, not believed.
CeIImate is Witness.
It was largely a case Of mute evil
dence against dumb testimony. And
the evidence. the jury held. was the
more eloquent and convincing.
The court permitted Guy r. Kirk,
cell mate with Miller during the
period before trial. to present his
conclusions as to the meaning OF
signs used by the deaf-mute in max
! ing his sO-called confession.
Miller told me-" said Kirk, that
/ he killed Shank so he could never
cheat anyone else. He had moth
ing against Mrs. Shank and the
! three older children, he said, but
killed them so they couldn't tell or
him. The baby he killed. he ex-
planned, because, with the mother
dead, he feared it might starve."
Miller was found guilty on all six
counts and sentenced to six separate
life sentences.
Penitentiary guards believe that
the same patient inventiveness dis
played by the specifies convict
during his trial will soon establish
means OF communication with his
incarcerated fellows and that ne
will not long be as he is now, the

DRAKE MILL GETS BY
Supreme Court Refuses To Consider
Demand That Auditing Soard Be
Given Access to Deals Made With
Consumers Stores.

The Drake mill will not have tc
make public the details of their sales
Of state flour on consignment to the
various consumers stores. When the
accountants employed by the state au-
diting board, under the recently-initi-
ated law, attempted to check up the
doings of the state mill at Drake, they
found that the records were missing
which gave the details of some $780,
600 in flour sold to the consumers
stores. The auditing board finally
appealed to the supreme court for an
order To produce the records. The
mill authorities had "passed the
buck" One employe thought the re-
port was in Bismarck. Another
thought it was in Fargo. It finally
seemed apparent that some other au-
diting board had taken charge of the
records. And the supreme court, or
rather, some of its members refused
to take jurisdiction in the matter.
They thought it should be brought up
n district court. With only few
days remaining until a majority of
the board should go out of office, there
was no time for such procedure.
Hence, the auditing board will not be
able to produce complete report.
The state mills deals with the con-
sumers stores will be missing. Nat
ural curiosity prompts one to wonder
what is back >of this new move to

tion by men who are not a part of
