INSANITY PLEA
MADE FOR SEAY

Florence, September 2o.--(Speciai.)
The defense in the second trial of
F, Whit Seay for the murder Of his
wife completed its case lac today,
and states attorneys will begin the
Introduction OF rebuttal testimony
when court convenes tomorrow morn,
ing.
To strengthen its plea OF insanity
the defense today placed on the
stand DR.. B. S. wyman of Birming-
ham and DR.. DarneH, alienist, of
Little Rock, Ark, both of whom
stated they had examined the de.
PENDANT and had pronounced him in-
sane. DR.. Darnell examined him at
the time he was confined in the Ar
kansas insane asylum and DR.. Wy
man examined him while he was in
the Jefferson county Jail in Bir-
mingham after the murder.
Mrs. Seay, mother of the defendant.
was on the witness stand more than
two hours yesterday and during all
OF the morning session today. She
was put through a trying examina-
ton by W. w. Callahan, chief coun-
sci for the defense, regarding the
condition OF her sons mind from
early boyhood up until the time he
choked his wife to death at Lonely
Spot, near Stewards Springs, on the
evening of Sunday, May Is.
seay,s Mother Testifies
The cross examination OF Mrs. Seay
was conducted by Solicitor Henry B.
Jones, assisted by Solicitor James C.
Roberts and r. T. Simpson, Sr.. spe-
ciai counsel for the state.
Mrs. Seay maintained her compos-
ure during most OF the rapid fire
questioning. Giving way to her
emotions only on rare occasions
when details regarding the horrible
crime were discussed. The witness
declared that she knew several days
before the murder was committed
that whit was extremely nervous,
and said she was making arrange
ments at the time to have him con-
fined in sanitarium.
It is thought states attorneys VIII
build up a strong case on rebuttal
testimony, which will be presented
tomorrow. A large number OF ad-
ditIonal witnesses have been ex-
amined. Indications are that at
torneys will argue the case tomor-
row afternoon and that II will be
in the hands of the jury rather late
tomorrow or early Friday morning.

He denied there had been any at

Generals office to destroy tho un-

Cites Court Decisions
The prosecution cited supreme
court decisions both under the Sher-
man act and the Clayton law and
contended there was ample prece-
dent for the present proceedings.
Mr.. Richbug compared the refus-
al of the shopmen to work at a
certain wage scale and the refusal
of the railroads which farmed out
their shop work to give work at
wage scales prescribed by the labor
board.

district Muscle Shoals is located, de-
clined to be interviewed. He declared
that he had not studied the new
proposal. 1t is anticipated. however,
that Ford advocates will await word
from Detroit before irrevocably COM
hitting themselves.
While 1t is probable that Ford will
insist that his supporters remain
firmly attached to MS pending offer,
there are features in the Hull bill
which might appeal to the manu-
facturer. He would be able to secure
the great water power to be gen.
Grated by the two dams. both nitrate
plants and the Waco quarry, by pay
ment OF interest on construction coEts
at only 4 per cent. and an annual
rental of 81. His pending offer pro-
vldes for the payment by him to tho
government of $5.o00.000, and the
capitalization of an operating COM
pany at s10.o00,000.
While Mr.. Hull announced today
that he was animated by a sincere
hope of removing distractions to the
development and preservation of the
Muscle Shoals property. there was
considerable surprise that he had

ganizations of great political pow

Furthermore, Mr.. Hull was pre-

with Gorgas eliminated. His So

an indication that Ford and the

that railroads in all sections of the
country be compelled to reduce the
minimum weight on hogs shipped in
cars of standard length from 1900
pounds to $4,000 pounds during the
summer months, April l to September
so, inclusive. A corresponding mini

The Farm and
The Farmer
BY William r. Sanborn

A farmer and cattle feeder, in his
comment on our cattle feeding story
in this column on Monday, stated that
he had been buying his feeders in
Kansas City or ST. Louis, in prefer
ence to picking them up at lndianapo-
lis. "In the first place" said he, you
can find just what you want in beef
breeds at Kansas City; cattle that
don't bark back to Jersey origin or to
dairy herds. / have found too much
of the Jersey strains in the feeders
offered at indianapolis, as rule. II
you happen to hit a day when some
good red beef stock comes in, you may
be able to make a good selection OF
feeders, but might spend week at
the Indianapolis yards and not get
what you wanted. But you can find
the real beef breeds at Kansas City al
all times and in sufficient quantity
that one can pick out the ages, weights
and type of individuals desired-cattle
of uniform type which will mature al
the same time lind will put on weight
and fill out as beef breeds should

Are Eating Less Beef
The great war effort of beef growers
in 1918 resulted in the marketing that
year of Is, $50, 400 animals, which yield
ed about seven and half billion
pounds of dressed beef. This number
has never been approached before or
since. In three years the cattle slaugh-
terings have fallen to 1921, $50, with
an accompanying decline of over
billion pounds in beef production.
Since 1910 the consumption of beef
per head of the population in the
United States is shown to have de-
creased fraction over twenty pounds
South America and Australia have
become the great sources of cheap
beef and mutton, and naturally DOM
mate the foreign trade In those com
modities
Pork production in 1920 and 1921
fell considerably below the high rec
! ord made in 1919. Nevertheless, the
home consumption of pork was slight
ly greater in 1920 and 1921
More lard was exported in 1921 than
all meats combined. The total ship
ments amounted to $4,000, 900 pounds.
