Heinrich Bolsters Stated Evidence in Manning Trial Criminologist Reveals Scientific Finding Follow ing Shooting of Ralph Horan; De fens Sto ry to Come The prosecution's master detective and criminologist, Dr. E. O. Heinrich, of Berkeley, laid the mortar Saturday for the wall of evidence which the state is attempting to build around Horace M. Manning. When direct examination of Heinrich was concluded near noon Saturday, the state had obtained from the pro fessorial appearing expert a mass of technical testimony which it hoped would bind and cinch the vital factors in its degree murder case against Manning. Major points in the star witness's Saturday testimony were: - 1. That the impact of the bullet against the back of the oaken chair in Manning' office had powder . ed the varnish, and that there was a hale the powder around the bullet hole in the back of Ralph W. Horan' coat This support the contention the coat waa tight against the chair-back when the hole was made. 2. That the teat of the chair disclosed no varnish dust, again indicating the coat was against the chair- back at the time of impact. 3. That the ravelled end of the cloth at the hole in the coat had been sheared off. The tate con- tends that if the coat was hanging loose when the , bullet passed through, the ends would have been . shredded.'.'' ;,'w ' 4. That five finger prints found on an Iver Johnson revolver, found in Horan' hand after the shooting February 12, were NOT print from the ; hand of Horan. i The first factors fit into the state's ' contention that Horan was seated in the chair when he met death, and not scrambling for guns jt3the prosecution aparently anticipates the defense will seek to show. ; The fourth, the state hopes, supports its theory that Horan did not handle the gun . before death. With Helnrich's direct exam ination completed, the expert faces a fire of cross-examination by the defense's attorney, George M. Roberts Roberts asked for time Saturday morn ing to prepare his questions, and the procedure was deterred until Monday at 9 a. m. , Defense Case to Start The defense. It Is expected, will take up its case Monday aft ernoon or Tuesday morning. What its attack will be remains unknown, bat a dramatic one is expected, with- the strong probability tha,t Manning will take the stand to tell what hap pened in his office the night of February 12. In his opening statement, Roberts' promised to refute every state contention, and it Is now pretty well known what the state's theory Is and how it is supported. ' The state evisence now at tempts to show that: 1 Horan was slain as he 'was seated," thus disponing tho possibilities of at duel. 8 There were two vol leys of shots. . 8 Manning left his office between tho first volley of shots and the second. 4 The defendant had been drinking. 5 Tho slain man hod two cards in his hand at the time of his death and not a gun. 6 Horan was right handed despite the fact a gun was found in his left hand. 7 The first bullet to enter the legislator's body killed him Instantly. Minute explanations accom panied Helnrich's testimony be fore the Jury of 12 men, Satur day, and ' the trial proceeded slowly. The examination was handled by Guy Cordon, Doug las 'county district attorney, here as special prosecutor. Dr. Heinrich, the professional appearing criminologist from Berkeley, was back on the stand this morning. His testimony was not completed when the court adjourned late Friday afternoon. Cordon Takes Charge Guy Cordon, district attorney from Douglas county and assist ant state prosecutor, took charge of the direct examination. The trial moved rather slow ly as Dr. Helnrlch drew with Instruments tho bullet-scarred bookcase and Manning's desk In to the chart, state's exhibit No. 1. He said the width of the book shelves was 10 Inches 'and the length 35 1-8 Inches. The case stood 18' 5-8 inches from the Seventh Street side of - the wall. The witnesses, referring brief ly to notes, said the Biirface of the big desk was 38 Inches by 66.
