port," Gaither said this morning.

(Stewart, chief of defense counsel,
"If you gentlemen, think this de
fendant went out and talked with
Charles Fahuan, hang him," shouted
Stewart at the ouuet of his argu
ment. "He didn't have any busiucHS
talking with Faiman."
' It was Chariot C. Faiman, proprie
tor of the National University of
Science who said he guve Shepherd
typhoid germs and taught him how
to use them to murder William Mc
Clintock for the $1,000,000 eslute he
had willed to Shepherd:.
Prosecution of Shepherd that wus
Attacked by Stewart us forced by
power behind the 1 scenes, and uo
charged ltobert JO, Crowe, the state1

would leave tho pronecutor's explana

Attorney Snoaks.
Btewart talked Lor iiO minutes after

be never will benefit by tho will of
Hilly McCllnlock?" asked Stewart.
