growing social ostracism, began to
make life miserable.
Goes to Mother
Miss Elder left her home and
went to her mother at Admission,

in having her marriage annulled on
the ground of her extreme youth.
with that, she thought the in
cident closed. She heard no more
of it until Dec. 20. Alighting from
train at Atlanta, she was ap-
preached by a man whom she rec
ognized as the sheriff of Clayton.
"'My dear GIRL he told her, 7

''She asked him to go to the no.

Then, she said in the letter, she
was told that if she would give him
$500 the incident would be closed
and she would hear no more of it.
She gave him the $500, she said, and
he left"
Reichenbach then quoted Miss
Elder as saying there was not an
atom of truth in the charges of mis-
conduct.

not become well known, nothing
would have been heard of the mat

IA United Press
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 4.-Collec-
ton of insanity evidence to save
William Edward Hickman from the
gallows was begun today by Jerome
Walsh, Kansas City lawyer.
Hickman yesterday pleaded mot
guilty by reason of insanity" to an
indictment charging him with the
murder Of Marion Parker, IL. His
trial was set for Jan. Is.
The arraignment was in Superior
Judge Carlos Hardy's court, which
was damned with armed men on the
alert for demonstrations against
the prisoner. The spectators, how
ever, seemed more curious than
vengeful, and there was no dem
onStration.
Hickman's whispered mot guilty"
was barely audible to those sur
rounding him. He seemed nervous
and shy.
Pleads for Time
Walsh, addressing the court,
pleaded for thirty-f1ve days in
which to gather evidence that his
youthful client was insane.
''Your honor" Walsh said, 81
have no desire to delay this court.
Yet I deem it salutary thing for
the entire Nation if this boy be
proved insane.
"I must have time to go to
Arkansas, Missouri and Illinois to
get the dispositions which will show
this boy abnormal"
Walsh presented the court with
mass of documentary opinions
which held Hickman abnormal.
After reading them, Judge Hardy
ruled three weeks sufficient time to
prepare the case, and set the trial
for Jan. %.
Crowd Packs Room
A crowd that packed the court
room to capacity watched every
move of Hickman, who toyed with
his collar and twitched his hands.
He occasionally glanced sheepishly
at the spectators.
Hickman was dressed in neat
blue. For the first time since his
attempt to strangle himself at Pen
dleton, Ore, he was allowed to wear
a tie. His hair was combed neatly.
He reSembled a high school student.
J No cameras we're allowed in the
courtroom, so the corridors through
which Hickman was led were filled
with smoke from flashlights. Hick-
man grinned foolishly at each
boom
A grand jury, meeting at the
same time to consider another muir
der indictment against Hickman in
connection with the murder Of Ivy
Thoms, druggist, adjourned with
out action.

risdiction of the juvenile court. This
prevented grand jury action.
District Attorney Asa Keyes an
nounceG he would ask the juvenile
court to turn Hunt over to Superior
Court and then would present the
evidence to the grand jury again.
A long trial was seen as the re-
suit of Hickman's insanity plea. I'm
der the plea Hickman formally adj
mitted the murder, and should be
found sane would be liable to SEN
tence of death without a jury trial.
