when there Is other direct evi.
hence In support Of 1t.
Authorities however take o dif-
fereYlt view Of the situation and
declare that there are ample
precedents on which such evi-
dence can be introduced in the
trial 0f q capital case.
Lieut.. Edward J. Kelly who
obtained the fugitive warrant
from acting United States At
tornev william H. Collins yester-
day, said that the testimony
regarding the gun win be sup
ported by one witness who will
testify that he heard three muf
fled shots shortly after he saw
Mary Baker struggling with a
man in her automobile near
Seventeenth and B Streets North
.westy the afternoon OF the
murder.
The real estate man has lost
considerable weight since his in
Cerceration and shows the strain
under which he has been labor
ing. r@FIe still admits ownership
of the revolver on which police
hope to obtain a conviction
against him for murder but in
sists that it was never out Of his
possession. He also denies that
he ever knew Mary Baker.
As far as Arlington county Is
concerned the Baker case will be
marked closed until it is shown
that she was actually slain on
county territory. Sheriff How
ard B. Fields said that once he
is shown that the girl died on
Arlington county soil he win
again enter the case.
Depend on Alibi
Smith asserted that he viii be
able to block all such testimony
with evidence which will show be
yond any question that Campbell
was not in the vicinity Of Seven
teenth and B streets the evening
that Mary Baker was slain.
1The. action that Cloth win take
Monday morning viii make the
habeas corpus proceedings unnec-
essary, but Smith said that he will
probably insist on a hearing be-
fore Judge Walter T. Mccarthy
regardless Of whether q nolle
PROSE- is entered or not.
Campbell did not share the en-
thusiasn Of his attorney, how
ever, and since he learned OF the
latest move by Cloth has appeared
detected and low In spirit, accord
Ing to his jailor.
Following a conference late yes
terday between Kelly, Cloth and
the sheriff the Washington de-
tective stated the evidence so far
shows that the fight originated
on Federal territory in the Dis
trict and that all of the articles
owned by the slain girl were
found on land over which the
Federal Government has juriSdic-
ton.
With these facts known Kelly
declared that the logical place
for .Campbell'S trial is before q
Federal judge.
Smith win endeavor to force a
trial, if any, before a Federal
court in the State of Virginia
and even in that event will assaiI
the jurisdiction Of the court un-
less the prosecution can positively
establish venue, he said today.
