Fourth Floor 111 si II mm uuaks OWN METHODS IGNORED EX PI J IT ADMITS EARLY AVRIT- IXGS ARE INAPPLICABLE. Methods of Conducting Autopsies Have Changed, Since 1893, Says Witness in Hyde Trial. KANSAS CITY. Feb. 20. Attempts by the defense to shake the tes timony of the state's expert wit ness. Dr. Ludwlg- Hektoen. of the University of Chicago, failed at to day's session of the Hyde murder trial when the expert calmly said that things he had advised In a book written sev eral years ago were quite inapplicable to present-day conditions. On cross-examination 'Hektoen ad mitted that in performing an autopsy on Swope's body he had not followed instructions set forth In his own books on the technique of autopsies, which said frozen bodies should not be thawed with hot water. - "That book was written in 1893." Dr. Hektoen said. "Since that time methods of embalming have changed somewhat and methods of conducting autopsies also have been altered. Were I to revise my book today I would cnange those statements." Dr. Hektoen on redirect examination denied that there were indications about the body of Chrlsman Swope that he had died of typhoid. An examination of the contents ot the stomach of Chrlsman Swope dis closed therein .a small amount of cyanide, according to the test of Dr. Walter Haines, professor of toxicology In Rush Medical College. Chicago. He said a further test showed also the presence of strychnine. Dr. Haines added that the fact that the body had laid In a vault three weeks would exclude the finding of poison In large quantities In the stom ach, but that there was sufficient poi son found to have caused death.
