Affirms Murder Conviction
Odell for Staying Kneip

Albany, N. Y, March S.--The convic-
ton of James Louis Odell for murder
ing Edward J. Kneip near Rochester
on January Z, 1920. was affirmed by
the court Of appeals today four to
three. - Z
Odell and his wife were charged
with having beaten Kneip to death in
revenge for his relations with Mrs.
Odell before her marriage. 80
The division OF the court arose over
the charge of the trial Judge. Both
opinions point out that the trial Judge
Inadvertently failed to present the
jury the question raised by, Odelrs
testimony as to whether he actually
killed Kneip. Odell swore to the facts
which indicated that Kneip was killed
by Mrs. Odell while the husband was
unconscious. The majority of the
court. while critieizing this defect in
the charge. thought it was inconceiv-
able that the verdict'of the jury would
have been different had the omission
been supplied. t.-
