Seated on the bench with Justice
Parker was County Judge Frank L.
Cleary, before whom the special
hearing which resulted in Carpenter
and Stevens being held without ball
for grand jury action was held.
Neither Carpenter nor Stevens
was present when the court con-
yened. The defense counsel were;
Robert II McCarter, Timothy ~.
PfeiEfer, State Senator Clarence
Case. Arlhur Nelson and Nathaniel
Palzer.
with Special Prosecutor Simpson
were Prosecutor Francis Bergen, OF
somerset County; Chief investigators
Patrick Hayes and Inspector John
Underwood.
AS the hearing proceeded. McCar-
ter and Simpson engaged in
verbal tilt as to the propriety Of IRE
State Introducing additional eVi'
dence.
"Your honor" said McCarter. "the
record Of the previous hearing has
been submitted and we considered
the case closed! This was to be IN
application for bail by these de.
PENDANTS, in support Of which ]
offer an alibi affidavit for one OF
the defendants"
Simpson rose quickly to his feet.
"You honor" ne declared. I'VE
have new evidence which l believe
should be submitted, and, in. fair
ness to the defense, I believe that
it should be offered first, We have
in our possession a card found near
the bodies when they were dis.
covered, upon WHICH are the finger
prints of a defendant"
Carpenter and Willie Stevens had
by this time made their appearance
IN the court room. Carpenter,
freshly shaved and attired in a blue
serge suit, smiled as he took his
seat at the counsel table. Willie
Stevens presented a rather shabby
appearance. His hair was rot
brushed and his clothes were baggy.
McCarter proceeded to argue
against the admission Of new evi.
dence.
Both men were near the spot
on the Phillips farm or De Russey's
lane at o'clock on the evening OF
September IA. 1922, according to
the States witnesses" said Nc
Carter. 1T also appears, according
to the testimony OF these witnesses,
that at about 10 o'clock that four
pistol shots were heard in the
vicinity. We may, therefore, as
sumo that a murder took place on
that night.
'This place, the Phillips farm, is
near De Russey's Lane. De Rus
sey's Lane is a connecting link be-
tween two roadways on which there
Is quite q lot of traffic. The fact
that there were a number of people
there on that night Is Of consid.

McCarter then proceeded to de-

said:
"The proof on which these de-

McCarter next spoke Of the testi'

Woman" and star witness for the
State, which, he said, will OF its
own accord discredit her credibility

gone a few lines and read to where
