Up Testimony on Murder
of Snowman.
special From a Staff Correspondent
of The Evening Worldly

MOUNT HOLLY. y. j., Dec. gC.-
The fate of Mrs. Doris Brunen and
Harry {. Mohr. charged with the
murder OF Mrs. Brunen's husband,
Honest John" Brunen. may be de-
cided by the jury this afternoon. At
ten minutes before II o'clock AS
sistant Prosecutor Peacock began the
first chapter of the States summation
of the case
The defense closed it's case at $50
o'clock and after few witnesses
were called in rebuttaI Attorney Ke-
own announced at 1920 O'Clock that
he had no witnesses to call in sur
rebuttal and moved for the discharge
of Mrs. Doris Brunen on the ground
that the State had failed to connect
her in any way with the death of
her husband, John Brunen.
Justice Kalisch asked at just what
point did the State claim to have ad-
duced evidence connecting her with
the murder, TO which Prosecutor
Kelsey replied that she sent tele-
gram from Charlie Powclls home TO
NlUhr, calling him home at once. Also
that on the evening Of March To-
when she learned that her husband
had changed his mind about going
to New York. saying he was going
there the following days. She re-
mained at home instead Of going to
the moving picture show, as was her
custom, though others in the house
did leave
The court refused to grant this mo-
tion, as it did one for the discharge
of Harry Mohr.
Mr.. Kcowu maintained that the tes-
timony of the states witnesses had
not made a case sufficiently strong for
submission TO a juiV
II disagree with counsel" Justice
Kalisch replied, because l feel there
are facts in this instance which the
jury should consider"
In his address to the jury. Mr..
Kcown first asked the jury To con-
slider tho provocation Mohr had in
his outburst a few days ago when
Hazel Bruncn implied that Mrs.
Mohr, the defendants mother, might
have been concerned in the killing Of
Brunen.

three months ago.
Chief William ]. Burns Of the De
parlmcnt OF Justice was asked FOR

Of the navy people. Brennan consulted
Police Commissioner Enright and bor-
rowcd the services Of Lieut.. Trainor.
Under the direction of Federal
Agents Robert Walsh and Ralph Nav
AFRO and Lieut.. Trainor, men were
put into the warehouses as checkers,
laborcrs, watchmen and hookkccpers.
These detectives found themselves
watched narrowly until they took ad
vantages OF opportunities obviously
put in their way OF stealing small ar
ticlcs such as wrist watches and mar
inc glasses Not until they actually
concealed these articles and pretended
to steal them were they able to get
any evidence against the men now in
custody.
They then learned that Government
property was being stolen by the
truckload. Including great boxes OF
clothing, paint by the barrel. crates
Of glass and commercial alcohol by
the gallon. Instances were found IN
which waste and salyaged material
bought by contractors was replaced
by now goods or by other merchandise
than that metioned in the contract;
IN other cases twice the quantity OF
actual salvaged stuff contracted for
WAS delivered.
Investigation revealed that the
group responsible for the thefts ot
Government property worked openly.
The method was this: 4 reQuisiuon
