POISON CASE is
DUE FOR JURY
TUESDAY NIGHT
Defense Prepares 0ratory
Intended to ACquit koIb
of Murder.

~ GREENFIELD, Ind, July 10
While George Kolb, gray-haired
Rushville farmer is sitting IN the
Hancock county jail here with the
shadow of the electric chair always
before his eyes, three attorneys are
putting the final touches to a burst
Of oratory which they hope will save
him.
Presentation of evidence came to
close Friday afternoon when the
state put on the stand five mem
bers of the Rush county grand jury
which indicted Kolb for the murder
with strychnine Of his second and
third wives. He is being tried Tor
the death of the third.
Testimony Of the grand jurors was
to the effect that William and Ray
mond Rolb, children Of the defend
ant told the grand jury their step
mother had eaten a heavy break
fast on the morning of her death.
Defense Is Offered
The defense has shown through
testimony that If she were given the
strychnine by Kolb before they left
home to attend Sunday school at
RushviIIe, Mrs. Kolb would have
displayed symptoms Of strychnine
poisoning within 80 to go minutes
after they left the home.
The symptoms first were shown
three hours later at 1890 a. m, and
Kolb's attorneys declare that the
poison must have been taken by her
while she was alone in her mothers
home at Rushville. She died shortly
after noon.
The state has countered with the
expert testimony that if heavy
meal has been eaten and the stom-
ach is full, strychnine works slowly.
Ate Light Meal
Kolb's children, together with
their father, testified that Edna
Dagler Kolb, the third wife, ate a
light breakfast of cereal ard coffee.
Each side will be allowed six hours
of argument and the case is ex-
pected to be given the jury Tuesday
night.
The indictment is for first degree
murder and conviction carries either
life Imprisonment or the chair.
The. Jury, however, is permitted
to find the defendant guilty OF
manslaughter, which is punishable
with two to fourteen years imprison-
ment.

Conference Called for Mon
day to Consider Unusual
Action.

BV United Press
SAN FRANCISCO, July 19.-With
the pardon petition of Warren K.
Billings in their hands, justices Of
the state supreme court today
planned a conference Monday to
discuss their right to consider the
case.
Billings, convicted with Tom
Mooney of perpetrating the Pre-
paredness day bombing of 1916 and
now serving life in Folsom prison,
requested the court, through his at
torney, Edwin Mckenzie, to revise
it's recent recommendation against
his pardon. He further asked that
the court hear the testimony of
John Macdonald, admitted per urer,
now en- route to California, whose
statements helped send him and
Mooney to prison.
Members of the court declared
they we're not prepared to state
what their actions would be on a
rehearing of the Billings application.
They pointed out that the case was
extremely unusual and that there
were not sufficient provisions under
the California laws to cover the sit
uation.
Governor c. c. Young refused to-
day to discuss the case of Mooney
and Billings until Macdonald had
arrived within the state. Frank P
Walsh attorney for the Mooney de-
Tense league, was expected in Los
Angeles today and 1t was thought
he would attempt to arrange the
meeting between the Governor anc
Macdonald.
Walsh left the Macdonald party
en- route to California at Kansas
