MAY GO TO JURY
LATE THIS P. M
The defense closed its oaHG Wednes
day In the trial of Omar W. Murphy,
charged with manslaughter as the re
sult of the death of his wife,, Kmmu,
last May, &2 days after the adminis
tering of an alleged beating. Kebuttal
by the mate will be finished early this
afternoon, to he followed by th final
arguments. The euse Is expected to
go to the jury early in the morning
or late this al'leruoou.
The inedlcitl testimony that has
taken up the major port! on of the
trial, won furnished by e!;ht local
physicians. Drs. Emmons, Thayer,
iHolt, Poellnltz, Hayes, Sweeney, Con
roy und Pickel. -The gist of their
I testimony whh that an embollisni, as
claimed by the state, could not have
'caused .MrH. Murphy's death, and that
jfor a physfc'uti to attribute a definite
! cause of death under the circuit)-
stances outlined in a hypothetical
! question by the defense, was "a
'guess." Dr. Conrny said "it would
; take a lot of nerve to attribute a
cause of death." It was Ii'h opinion
(that death was caused by syncophy, or
i lack of blood to a vital organ, super
induced liv heart trouble.
The fltiity directed its henvfest fire
against the testimony of Dr. 0. H.
Sweeney, for the defense, who prev
iously hail tiled nn aff!davit uttrlbut-
ling death to unknown causes,
j It developed under cross-examlnn-jtion
that Dr. Sweeney had attended
j the post mortem examination at the
j request of I A. Murphy, a brother of
'the licensed. Dr. Sweeney said that
Drs. Thayer and O'aney had welcomed
jhini with profess'onal heartiness und
denied the state's query that Dr.
I Clancy had Raid: "I wonder what he
I Is snooping around here for?" He
(also denied the state's allegation that
he had not been present (luring all of
the autopsy, but arrived, he said, at
tits commencement.
I It also developed that Or. Sweeney
made the ;fiidavtt In the office A?!
Attorney Itoberts, lor the defense, and
had called Dr. K. (!. Swedenborg of
Ashland, with the view of having h.iu
testily In the case. lie said wien in
formed that 14-. Swedenhorg'a wife
was a member of the jury lie aban
doned the conversation and that he
did not know Mrs. Swedenborg whs a
juror until then.
Many of the witnesses for the do
fense are brothers and children of the
defendant. Two of them are strtte
witnesses, and there is u marked
chilliness among the members of the
family as a result.
