just before noon and we had luncheon
in the grill room and resumed our
former discussion on the bacteria and
kept talking about it, reviewing some
of these things we had spoken of
before, and also we were talking of
family or personal affairs. Mr.. Shep-
herd told me that he had an adopted
son, that he was guardian, of the
boy, and I told him it was nice for
him. as he did not have any of his
own. and he said that the boy was
worth a lot Of money, probably one
or two millions. and he told me what
his name was; his name was Billy and
we spoke about him. l as ked him
how old he was. and he said he was
becoming of age now, and l told him
it would put him in kind of a bad fix
to lose him when he becomes of age.
l asked him about if he arranged any
will for him. and he said that he had
arranged his will; that he could do
practically as he wanted with it, and
l told him it was very fortunate for
him to have an adopted. boy, especially
with a lot of money.

appointment for the week following,
at the same place.
"At the next meeting were discussed
some of the subjects in general that
were covered before, and Billy also
was brought into the conversation
again.
Il asked him if Billy ran about
much" said Faiman. He told me
that he did; that he was engaged to
Miss Pope, and I asked him If he
knew when they were going to be
married, and he said he expected they
would get married any time, and l
told him that that would leave him
out in the cold on the will PROPOSE
ton.
He said that be didn't know ex-
actly how 1t would affect him, but
he didn't think it would be favorable,
and l told him that he ought to make
some arrangements of some kind to
take care of himself after the boy
leaves, after he becomes of age and
Is married, and he told me that he
has had his mind on something and
he could figure out things all right
for himself.
II asked him what he intended to do
about his going into the work out
at the school. He said he was so busy
with these other things on his mind
that he did not have time to think
about 1t at present, and he had kind
of lost interest in it, and that was
about all there was at that meeting"
I'VE left there without making a
definite appointment. Mr.. Shepherd
said he would call me up and ]

October, Mr.. Shepherd called me up
and l made an appointment with
him at the Sherman House. He
told me that he had had his plans all
arranged to prepare the typhoid cul-
lures and put them in some water.
Il told him that that was about the
only way you could give them to be
anywhere near sure of an infection,
and also told him that all persons
were not susceptible to the disease,
because they have natural immunity

BLAMES LACK OF POWER.
Failure to Establish Strong Govern
ment at Fault, Says Schurman.

PLYMOUTH, England, June 18 Op)
DR.. Jacob Gould Schurman, recently
United States Minister at Peking, ar
rived here today en- route to Berlin,
where he will be American Ambas-
sador, and said the present situation
in China is serious only to the extent
that it indicates a continuance Of the
absence of a strong and effective
Chinese government.
1T seems to me-" he said, that
the situation now is not very much
different from what 1t has been during
the last few years. During that period
we have had sporadic captures of
foreigners and even occasionally
sporadic murders. For these things
neither the national nor local govern.
ments has been responsible"
Warning against misinterpretation
of news from China, DR.. Schurman
said:
For instance, you read that there
is antiforeign feeling. You may find
upon inquiry, however, that the only
basis for the statement is that a for
eigner has been attacked or perhaps
murdered by a band of robbers or by
some local military organization

FAIMAN RELATES
STORY OF GERMS
AT SHEPHERD TRIAL

Continued from First Page.)
Faiman testified. and was shown some
on slide.
The defendant said he would return,
said Faiman, and upon the second
visit displayed especial interest in
typhoid and tuberculosis germs.
Tells of Conversation.
Shepherd asked how a person could
be given germs and was told they
could be introduced in food or in cold
water, said Faiman, adding that Shep-
herd wanted to know if the fact that
germs had been fed a person could
be revealed in a post-mortem examina-
ton.
Faiman wet his lips occasionally as
he mumbled through his testimony,
and for the most part kept his eyes
aimed at his feet.
'Will the witness please talk louder;
the defendant can't hear a word he
says" interrupted Robert Stoll, Shep-
herds law partner, who throughout
the trial has been by Shepherds side.
The jurors strained forward in their
seats, those farthest away cupping
their ears in an effort to hear.
No questions were asked Faiman, as
he was given free rein to go on
through his story.
Prosecutor Grove, seated directly in
front of Faiman, urged the witness to
keep your voice up; we can't hear
you"
1t was on his third visit to the Fai-
man school that Shepherd introduced
the name of Billy McClintock.
The next time l saw Shepherd he
told me he was the guardian of a boy
named Billy McClintock." said Faiman.
SovS Sbophord Do;d
His next testimony dealt with Shep-
herds recovery of the letter he said
had been written as the original step
He gave me $50 for the letter, and
said that I would be well taken care
of financially" said Faiman.
Il told him 1 could not take chances
on something irregular about my
place there, as 1 had spent a lot of
money on it. If there was anything
irregular I should be well paid for it."
The next testimony dealt with Bill
lys sickness.
taken sick and he told me about 1t
and to sit tight. 1 did not hear from
him again until after Billy died and he
telephoned me about it"
Testimony regarding Shepherds
obtaining germs from Faiman's
school were gone over in this man
ner:
He asked me if 1 had any bac.
terial cultures there and l had three
tubes of typhoid cultures, one a
para-A and one a para-B, which had
received from the health department
laboratory a short time previously,
and I took out these tubes and un-
covered one of them and made a slide
of it.
Tests Are Explained.
I'VE stained the slide with meth
ylene blue so it did not show the fra
gility, organs of locomotion of the
bacteria, because that takes a special
stain and a little more technique,
takes a longer time to make it,
showing that this bacteria had to be
identified under an oil immersion
lens, which magnifies the germ about
LOO times, from 1000 to l LOO times
He was interested in three cultures
and said he would like to have them;
wanted to know what they cost. I
told him he could get them free at
the health department laboratory,
where 1 got those. They were marked
right on the tubes, and he said he
would like to have them and 1 told
him that he could have them. il didn't

they were not used very much be-
cause they didn't do any good. The
best treatment was just hygienic, nat
ural methods. He told me he would
call me later and tell me how things
were progressing.
Recovery of the letter Shepherd was
alleged to have written was dealt
with in this verbatim form:
About two weeks later or three,
probably, Mr.. Shepherd came to the
university and asked me how we keep
our records there, and ! told him we
didn't have much record to keep out
side of the letter files and records of
the graduate students. He said that
he thought had something of great
Importance to him.
Girls Letters Printed.
The Chicago Tribune today printed
another series of letters written by
Isabelle Pope to McClintock, her
fiance.
The letters were written while Nc
Clintock was at Dartmouth College,
before their engagement was announc-
ed. The only reference to the Shep-
herds in these letters is contained in
this sentence, written May II, 1924:
NO, we couldn't announce any
thing, probably not for some time
certainly not this Christmas, though I
surely would like to. One reason is
that our marriage is too far distant,
and another because Of your family.
When we announce it l will, of course,
have the dinner party, either 1 or one
of my family"
Some excerpts from the letters of
Miss Pope follow:
1T is proven, to myself at least,
that I love you far more than you
love me. You will say it isn't true,
but it is, dear"
Actions Displeased Fiancee.
"You asked about whether you
should go out or not. / feel like a
selfish cad when 1 say no, for 1 want
you to have a good time, but, truth
fully, l feel funny when you do. Call
it selfishness, foolish pride, jealousy,
anything, and 1t may be all of that.
I only know this, that whether foolish
or not, convention has handed it down
that the man just doesn't, that's all.
Every girl I've talked to
feels the same way, and it just hurts
a little, that's all. Really,
dear, 1t doesn't matter a great deal,
