Mrs. Lawrence Examined First.

-HIo. 1Ra"ECACC EXdX0l1k30 E1ESG.
The only other witness placed on the
stand this morning was Mrs. Anna
Lawrence, proprietress Of the Prescott
hotel. Examined by w. J.. Barnett,
attorney for the defense. she told of
seeing blood spot subsequent to the
murder on the door of room 81, which
was occupied by H. j. Hagen and was
next door to the room occupied by
Marie Wick. and also seeing blood on
the door of room 63, from which
egress could be gained to the roof of
the hotel annex. She, also claimed
that on the day following the murders
she found deep footprint in the
ground near the foot of a fire escape
leading from the roof of the hotel.
Relates Different Story.
Mrs. Lawrence also gave testimony
given by May Melaas, former cham
bermaid at the hotel. Miss Melaas
had testified that at about 4 O'Clock
on! the morning Of June she heard
noises apparently coming from Marie
Wick's room. This, it is contended by
the state. fxed the time of one of the
assaults on Miss Wick. Mrs. Law
renee swore. today, however, that the
day following the discovery of the
crime Miss Melaas had told her that.
she heard no noises whatever during
the night. Her testimony also dealt
with the thickness Of the fioor cover
ing in the murder chamber and halls.

being to show that there was no pos

HARDING WILL VETO
BONUS, IT IS CLAIMED

WASHINGTON. Aug. 26:-Presi-
dent Harding positively will veto the
soldiers compensation measure.
This was the authoritative word
passed around among Republican
leaders today. There will be no
change on this attitude, no matter
what arguments and eXplana tons
are advanced. according to the mes
sage received.
The authenticity of the communi-
cation could not be questioned. The
assurance of diSapprOVal was
brought by a majority senator, who
discussed the subject with the Pres
ident in person. The announcement
seemed to remove all conjecture as
