The state au thorities are puzxled aa to a satisfac tory disposition of the case of Nina, Danforth, the deformed girl, who killed A. J. Emery and is now In the Cam bridge house of correction, says a Bos ton special to the Press. Attorney General Parker feels that because of the pitiable circumstances a Jury would acquit her. Yet, by 'her own admission and by the testimony of eye witnesses she killed Emery aa he stood in the doorway of his home in South Fnam lnghain. It Is the fear of having a ver dict of not guilty which cauKes the at torney-general so much trouble. He Is afraid that the traditions of the Massachusetts courts will be violated by a return of a verdlqt in direct op position to the evidence. The authorities are mid to have at last reached the conclusion that the best ending of the case would be an arrangement wtik-h the state could ac cept without establishing abad pre cedent and would let the girl out of the house of correction under feetraint or watch which would not be so close as to threaten her already weak condi tion of mind. Thi may be aocom- plfshed by a verdict of manslaughter with a Hgrht sentence from whkfh will be taken the time already spent by the the prisoner in the house of correc tion.
