dering w. A- Johnson at the New Grand
Central hotel on June 20, lost their
battle today . for the exclusion of the
statement made by Webb to Deputy
District . Attorney , Fitxgerald on June
22.
A strenuous legal struggle over the
admission of Webb's statement began
yesterday afternoon and much testi
mony was taken dealing with Webb's
charges . that he was ' Induced to - con
fess by third degree methods of the
police department No testimony in
the case proper was taken, this morn
ing. Just before noon Judge Morrow
gave a decision in favor of the state
on Webb's statement holding that it
can be placed before the Jury for what
it is worth, but that the Jury may re
ject it' if the Jurors believe it was
made- under threats or promises of
leniency. - . ' '. V - - '
Mrs. Webb, wife of the man who Is
charged with murdering for money and
cramming the body of his choking vic

Mrs. Webb was accompanied by her
daughter,, a pretty girl about 17 years
of age. 8he held no conversation with
her husband, -from whom she has bean
estranged ror many years because of
his lalson with Kirs. Kersh, co-Uefendant
in tne muroer case.
Her presence In the courtroom Is in
terpreted to mean that, she .dealrea to
lend a touch of human sympathy for
the man accused of -one of ths most
atrocious Crimea ever, committed in
Portland, f the theory of the state be
true. . Up to thU point tha caae i has
been marked -.among murder" cases for
tha absence of any group of anxious
relatives. v " - - ..
Judge Morrow. In passing on' the ad.
mission of Webb's statement said' he
was governed" by what i ths - supreme
court of Oregon said in the - case of
atate. against Dorria in the Elst .Ore
gon. In this case 'it was decided the
matter should be submitted to the Jury,
and .that the court may not rule out
the statement of the defendant claimed
to have been obtained by Improper
methods unless he Is1 entirely satisfied
sucn methods were used.
Jury May Consider.
.He accordingly told. the' Jury it may
consider what Webb said about the
murder two days.after the crime wes
committed and may weigh its value
At the lame time, If the Jury believes
tha admissions of , the defendant were
made through fear or hopes or -reward,
it may reruse to consider the state
ment at all when it reaches the jury
room.
