Dream Life

over repeated objections of States
Attorney Robert E. Grove, DR..
White sketched the dream life of
Loeb. He described a succession of
phantasies which he said existed in
the minds of the youthful defend
ants.
He looked upon himself" DIR.
White said. "as a master criminal
the master criminal mind of the
century directing great bands OF
criminals in their underworld &C
tivities.
HE also thought himself a great
detective. He plotted great crimes
and then imagined himself as the
detective unfolding the plot and
capturing the criminals"
DR.. White also told how Loeb
walked the streets, giving secret
signs to his imagined criminal band,
directing what houses to rob.
DR.. White also pointed out that
Loeb admitted being an inveterate
liar, and had started lying at an
early age.
Judge Rules
The defense scored an important
victory-a victory which may save
the youthful slayers from the
gallows when Judge Caverly today
made final ruling permitting H.
PRODUCTION of medical testimony by
the defense. 1t was this ruling
which made possible DIR. Whites
testimony.
After hearing arguments of the
State and the defense" Judge
Caverly stated in making his ruling,
lit is still the opinion of the court
that it should hear evidence in
mitigation as well as evidence in
aggravation.
Therefore the objection of the
States attorney to the testimony for
the defense witness is over-ruled."
The courts decision ended some
ten court hours of bitter fighting be-
tween the State and defense on the
admissability of medical evidence.
While Justice Caverly did not so
state in his final ruling, he has
stated at various times during the
arguments that he would not listen
to testimony tending to show insan-
ity, but would merely permit the in
PRODUCTION of testimony showing evil
dence of mental disease, ''in mitiga-

then took the stand.
Grove Fights
Grove scored a point when the
court sustained his objection to have
the witnesses tell how he arrives at
the mental condition of a patient.
The defense then asked the question
in another form and again Grove
objected and was sustained.
Again Grove objected to a cues
ton along the same line and was
sustained. A fourth objection by
Grove was overruled. When the
witness started to answer, Grove
objected again and said "the wit

$459,485.15 IN JUNE
Gas Tax for Month Reaches Higher
Figure Than 1923.

Charles C. Benjamin, State gaso-
line tax clerk. today reported the
State had collected $459, 4S5.15 in
gasoline taxes for the month of
June
Benjamin pointed out this figure
is higher than the June returns last
year. He explained large part Of
the increase is due to the fact the
law took effect in June. 1923, and
tax was not paid then on gasoline
which consumers had stored and
which they did not exhaust until
August.
