OLSON BACKED

oAOo4V OfAShCO
Chicago, June 2.-(AP)-Although
nearly every point raised by counsel
for William D. Shepherd, was de-
cided against them at the opening
Of the trial proper of Shepherd for
the murder of his millionaire ward,
William N. McClintock. the defend
ants attorneys were determined to-
day to contest every line of prosecu-
tion testimony and every phase of
the states attack.
Although w. e. Steward, chief
defense counsel, and w. w. O'Brien,
his partner. were overruled on sew
eral objections. they were successful
in preventing Chief Justice Harry
Olson Of the municipal court from
giving any important testimony, and
they were hopeful that today's ses-
sion would hold for them, added
legal victory.
ReichnIan On Stand
AS Alexander Reichman prepared
to continue his testimony from
where it was interrupted at adjourn
ment yesterday, followers Of the case
recalled Mr.. Stewards statement
that the defense would attempt to
show recent interest in the McClin-
took estate, was aroused by an ul-
terror purpose. Reichman is attorney
for the Northern Trust Ct(lpany,
which has control of the McCiintock
estate pending it's final disposal un-
der the will of McClintock, which
made Shepherd chief beneficiary.
As friend of William McClintock's 3
father. Shepherd became his legal
counsel, and later served Mrs. Nc
Clintock in similar capacity, and
upon her deathbed he was made CO.
guardian with Mrs. Shepherd, of
young McClintock. ..-
Reichman was so bitterly assailed
upon cross-examination by Stewart.
chief of defense counsel, that four
times he begged Judge Lynch "for
protection from these insinuations." "
Second Witness
Reichman was the second witness
Of the trial which got underway yes
Reichman with having profited from
which was willed to Shepherd by
he died of typhoid fever December
AdSt, d uCoIu OHc PueIu 10 dCCoScu
Of having caused by administering
typhoid germs.
"How much did you have when
you came here from Iowa?" asked
Stewart, and when Robert E. Grove,
the states attorney objected. Ste
wart told Judge Lynch that he want
ed to show "when this man came
here he didn't have a dime and he
got rich after he handled the McClin-
took estate"
Mr.. Grove insisted Reichman was
one of the leaders of the Chicago
bar and his affluence was the legiti-
mate spoils of his ability as an
attorney.
The first mention of the purpose
of McClintock's cousins to break the
will was made when Reichman said
he Knew such suit was contem-
plated, but denied he had an interest
in it.
Begs For Protection
Reichman begged the courts pro-
lection when Stewart made sar-
castle reference to the admitted fact
that young McClintock, when a
child, had not liked him, and again
when, Stewart sought to prove by
the witness himself that Reichman,
in the noted King Will case, had an
interested party sent to Jail in an
effort to break the will.
The argument became so heated
that Prosecutor Grove demanded
that Stewart be restrained from the
practices of "shyster lawyer" Pre-
viously Grove had referred to the
defense attorney as an attorney who
had become opoluent from sharp
practice.
