when he found her wading In a creek
near the club house In her undergnr
xnenta. Trammell denied killing her. His
brother, Monte, who was anld to have
been keeping company with Mary for
10 months, and who was her escort on
the night of the fateful party. Is

Dr. Ed Klrkland, who performed
the autopsy, aald she died from a
broken neck. Her lungs calntalned
no water, he said, Indicating she was
dead when thrown Into the creek.
Right couples were on the party
and most of them drank heavily,
Batchclor aald. Clyde Trammell 'a
companion was Dorothy Karps, 16. It
was his first "date" with her.
The two girls, Dorothy and Mary,
left the club house, went to the creek
bank, disrobed and began wading.
Clyde aaw them from the club, which
alta on a mound overlooking the
stream, and went to the scene.
He encountered Mary on the oppo

Dorothy told the Jury she saw Clyde
Chaae Mary, but did not witness the
attack. No actual witnesses had been
found, but Batchelor was looking for
two persons who were reported to

eat under a tree "eobberlng up."
Clyde Insisted that Mary ran Into
the creek after the attack and he

farm woman.
Mary came here about a year ago
from a farm near Splro, Okla., and
worked in a night club near Pt.
Smith, Batchelor said that while ex
citement was high over the case, he
expected no violence because the girl
was little known here.

CONFER ON TAXES
John H. Carkln of Salem, member
of the state tax commission and
former local resident, appeared this
morning before the county court
relative to tax matters between the
county and the tax commission.
The county court today also stud
led the old age, pension Isw. The
federal old age pension bill Is not
definitely settled by congress and it
conflicts with the state old age pen
sion law upon age and length of
residence qualifications of appll-
ca n t. The f edera 1 la w, aa now
written, provides for the state, and
county to pay $16 and the govern
ment per month, with a maxi
mum of 30 monthly. The foderni
law fixes the age at 65 years ana
the state law at 70 years. The stnte
law requires 16 years' residence in
the state and the federal law fixes
no residence period.
County Judge Day said today there
was nothing the county court could
do but continue with Its present
policy of payments until the con
flicting clauses of state and feelers 1
law ttcie reconciled. I

"Two weeks ago I .was In Ken'
tucky." he said. "I heard my wife
was living In San Francisco. I got
out here as fast as X could. She
had divorced me and married a man
named Clarence French. She told me
she already had got an lnterlocu
tory divorce from him.
"I saw the boy, Verdane. I told
my wife that I wanted her to come
back to me that we would start an
over again. She said she would think
It over. I saw them every day.
"Then someone turned me In.
Mitchell Jumped 10,000 ball on a
robbery charge In St. Loula In 1928.
Police today grilled him regarding
the murder of Joseph Mogler, who
furnished the 10,000 ball bond and
was found slain a short time after
Mitchell's escape. Mitchell denied
having returned to Bt. louts alter
Jumping bond, and said that he was
a fugitive In Michigan when he read
