Richard M. Brumfield Ob
tains No Relief in Appeal
to Supreme Court .
Appeal to the state supreme
court haB availed nothing for Dr.
Richard M. Brumllcld, Boseburg
dent:st, convlctd of murder in
the first degree and sentenced to
bang for the killing of Dennis
Russell, Douglas county recluse.
The f up re me court yesterday
upheld in all respects the action
of the lower court In Douglas
county where George H. Bingham
of Saiera was the presiding judge.
The affirming opinion was writ
ten by Justice McBride.
Retrial Denied
A retrial of the ease was sought
in the appeal, the contentions
being fiased tn) argument lor
change of renue and errors by
the lower court.
Brumfield was originally sen
tenced to be hanged at the state
penitentiary on January 13 last.
Execution was stayed by the ap
peal to the supreme court. The
slayer's attorneys now have 20
days in which to file a petition
for a rehearing. The supreme
court will adjourn for the fall
vacation on August 1, so If the
rehearing is asked it probably
will be some time in September
before the court passes on the
motion. After final action by the
supreme court it will be neces
sary for Brumfield to be returned
to Roseburg to be re-sentenced.
Higher' Appeal Unlikely
It is not probable that the case
will be taken to the United States
supreme court on appeal, though
an effort might be made. .When
Attorney Charles Garland of Port
land attempted to get the Kerby
and Rathle case Into the supreme
court at Washington a Justice of
he highest court (indicated to
him that it is the policy of that
court to leave cases of this char
acter to the states.
Justice UcBride's opinion point
out that the bill of exceptions
furnished by the" appellant's at
torneys was rery meager and that
the principal ground: relied upon
In the appeal is the action of the
lower court in " refusing defen
dant's application for change of
venue and the court's action in
overruling a motion to quash the
Indictment.
Error Claim listed' ' '
The assignments of error werii.
refusal of tbe court to quash the
indictment: refusal to grant a
change of venue; overruling de
fendant's ' challenges of certain
jurors; admission by the court of
applications made . by Brumfield
for life insurance in favor of his
wife; giving of certain instruc
tions to the Jury; unconstltutlon-
aUty of the capital punishment
law.
In upholding the refusal of
Judge Bingham to quash the in
dictment the McBride opinion
holds that it was legal for Joseph
L. Hammersley of Portland to ex
amine witnesses in the grand jury
room, since he was regularly ap
pointed as a deputy prosecutor in
the case. ';
Change Xot Warranted
The motion for change of venue
was denied first by Judge Hamil
ton and then later by Judge Bing
ham. The supreme court holds
that change of venue would not
have been warranted, and that
any possible prejudice against
the defendant caused .by news
paper articles would baveeen
aroused in other counties as well
as In Douglas county.
Upholding the lower court in
allowing certain Jurors to sit over
the objection of Bruraf ield's at
torneys, the opinion remarks that
"the disqualifications Of a Juror
challenged on account of actual
bias are not judged in this state
by the rules of . common law."

Mr. A, L. Phillips.
Mrs. Clara Phillips, 23 yars
old, and the wife of a wealthy
Los Angeles oil - promoter, has
been brought back to Los Angeles
from Tucson, Arix.. charged with
the murder of Mrs. Alberta Mead.
ows, 20 years old and a widow.
Mrs. Phillips invited Mrs. Mead
ows for a ride through the coun
try aud when a lonely road was
reached outelte ithe city limits,
opened her handkerchief and pro.
duced a hammer; which she had
previously bought in a five and
ten cent store. In1 a fit of jeal
ousy she accused the widow of
stealing her , husband's affections
and started to beat her over the
head with the hammer. There was
a struggle, but it did not last
long. Mrs. Phillips returned to
the waiting automobile and pro-
ceeded to the city as though no
thing had happened.
whether the prospective juror has
read or heard at second hand the
purported facts in the case, and
upon these has formed an; opin
ion," says the - supreme court.
but rather whether in the opin
ion of the trial court he is capa
ble of disregarding such an opin
ion and trying the case fairly and
impartially upon the evidence ad
duced in court Take a case such
as the Guiteau or the Czolgoss
murder and try to secure a jury
whose members : should go Into
the jury box with their 'minds as
blank as a sheet, of paper in re
lation to the fact, and the result
would be a panel composed of
men whose minds would be equal
ly blank In all respects."
Insurance Phase Discussed
Objection: to admission of the
life insurance testimony is held
untenable. Relative to this evi
dence the opinion says: "It Is not
necessary that the evidence as to
motive shall be conclusive, but
it Is a circumstance with all the
other facts In the case and to be
given such weight as in the judg
ment of the Jury it is entitled
to." !
Concerning instructions given
by Judge Bingham to the jury la
lieu of instructions that Brum-
field's attorneys asked that he
give, the supreme court says of
the former:
Capital Punishment Upheld
"This covers all phases of the
question of insanity as a defense
and of the evidence necessary to
establish it. It leaves the whole
matter to the Jury upon all the
evidence, without selecting, as
the request does,; particular items
of the evidence; and, directing the
jury to consider them, a method
always Objectionable and some
times erroneous.! The instruction
upon this phase of the case taken
as a whole is admirable, and was
quite as favorable-to the defend
ant as the law warrants."
Relative to the capital punish
ment law, . the opinion mentions
that its constitutionality has been
upheld In the case of the state
against Rathie. '
Brumfield was indicted August
31, 1921, and the crime was com
mitted July 13,; 1921.
