through the bitter ordeal of cross-ex

Mrs. Sarah Conklln, Mrs. Ida Powell,

Against the testimony of the Carman

former railroad engineer. Cella teaUfied
Mra Carman went out of tha kitehon a
short time before the shot was fired, re
appeared a few seconds after H was fired,
produced a rajvojver from the (olds of her
kimono and said: "I shot him." Farrell
has testified that he saw a woman,
dressed as Mrs. Carman was dreeeed, flee
from the window Into the houee after the
shut
Mrs. Carman faced ber ordeal with lips
parted In a smile. Once, as the district
attorney thrust home Intimate queetions
as to the Jealeuay that had stirred her
heart cooeernteg her huebend'e reletluae
with women, she appeared to lose her
eplendld aelf-ronerol and to falter. Smtl
Ing salt aeon revived 'her.
Khe br)k,e down afer It was all over
and cried. - The rraetlon eame when her
aged mother was on he stand.
Mra. r.nu. 'rakes Staad.
Just before the de'eaJxut took the chair
She crossed to her mother, Mrs. Conklla,
Sitting at the counsel table, leaned over
and klsaed her.
"Mra Carman." begaa the district at
torney, "you said you were suspicious of
' yeur husband. When did you get eusp!
clous?" ,
"About a year age."
What caused hsr suspicion she could
, not say. A woman did not cause It
"lust rumors."
"Were the rumors about a woman T"
' No. Just soro one asking him about
( his girls. Homebody Ui4 wiehe ws
' devil with the gtria"
the could not recall who had taJl ber
this. At Mr. Smith's bidding she named
many wen. friends ef Dr. Carman, but
' could not name one of them as bavin
said "How are all your girls r '
Derttr le game Devil.
"Somebody was asking htm that ques-
. Uoe all the time." she tali "They ware
. )etlng. I thought at first, but after
; while I thought maybe there anight be
some truth in what they said,
would say to me, 'The doctor fa
devil.' "
"Did you have sn Inclinstlon to hear
what the doctor had to ssy to his women
patients T"
"In a way, yea. Homo of his patients."
"Did you auk him where he was when
be waa out all night?"
"Yes, snd he told mi."
"Did you believe him?'1
"Yes, sometimes."
"Did your suspicions
timer'
"They Increased right up to the time of
the murder. They have all been dispelled
new."
"flow long have you been in that frame
of mind?"
"Ever since the terrible tragedy. What
I heard, or rather what I didn't hear,
over the telephone Instrument reassured
me."
Mrs. Carman sought to evade a direct
answer to the district attorney's question
aa to' whether she thought that her hus
band was truthful. Finally ahe said "No."
She explained eh had no real reasoe te
doubt him, however. She was suspicious
at first of the women who called fre
quently at his office.' Finally she. was
suspicious of nearly all of. his women
callers.
"I got tired of hearing things," she
said. i
And the fact that a woman would
some to his office afterwards was enough
to make you ausplolous? .Were you sue
ploloug of yeur husband or the woman?"
asked Mr. Smith.
"Both," said Mra. Carmen, firmly.
Naree Nat Mere Attractive.
Borne women, Mrs.' Carmen said, were
tare attractive to her husband, than she
was, she had thought. She did net know
If there were more than ene, but she
wanted to find out ,"I had no particular
women 4a mind," she said. . .
Mr. Smith asksd If she thought Mrs,
Verenca, the middle-aged nurse whose
face she slapped. . waa more attractive
than she. Mrs. Carman smiled and an
swered "No."
Under the rapid volley of the district
attorney's . pitiless question Mrs. Car
man's color rose and fell. She- bit ber
lips; she clenched ber gloved hands, Che
appeared to be about to faint, but her
bottle of smelling salts revived her.
She was made to describe the entire
soene with Mrs. -Vgrasoa.- fih said - she
saw Dr. Carman give the nurse lit and
saw her kiss him afterward. It was tht
passing of the money and not the kiss
that distorted her, she said.
"Tou didn't object to anotner woman
kissing your husband In gratitude?"
"How long after the passing ef the '
money waa the k'ss administered?"
'A few minutes. They were sitting
down alongside each ether at the time." '
Mre. Carman said she did not rap on
the window when the kiss was given,
but waited until Mrs. Carman start ad !
to leave the office. . I
"You went pretty, fast around the lawn'
to get to the door before Mrs. V trance,
didn't your I
"Yes." . j
Mrs. Carman Indicated that she slapped
Mrs. Vara nee with the back ef her band.
New, as to the night of the shooting."
said Mr. Smith, "did you hear a shot?"
"No, I heard some commotion.'
;Whatr' shouted the district attorney.
"Well, I don't know whether I beard
a shot or not. I heard a nolee."
"And your curtonlty was aroused?"
"Surely It was an unusual sound."
Khe thought It had ccrfle from the rear
of tha house, and It took her about a
minute to gat down stales, she said. ' As
she reached the head of the stairs she
saw two women going 'into the hall, but
she made no effort to find out who they
were. After she went down stairs she
walked Into the waiting room and leaned
against a mantelpiece .for a moment
She did not see anyone down stairs and
went directly up stairs again after hay
ing stood by tha mantel for two minutes,
perhaps.

her redirect examination was then hegu.
Tears Oat Telephone Device.
Before she was excused, Mrs. Carman
desrrtbed In detail how ahe tore out the
telenhonlo Instrument snd Its wires be
tween her riom and the doctor's office
and hid the wlren, batteries, sound gath
erer and the reoelver In the garret under

Mra Carman." said ths district attor
ney, "If your suspicions were dispelled
by what you beard over the Instrument.
why did you buy the thing on June 23
when your lease has two more months
to run?" . ..
. To this Mrs. Carman would give no
direct answer.
Mrs. Carman said she learned tha Iden
tity of the victim late Tuesday night.
She said she felt sorry 'for 4he family ef
Mrs Bailey, but that ahe had not ex
pressed herself because she "didn't feel
at liberty te-do so."
Mrs. Carman's 10-year-old daughter,
Elisabeth, wna the next witness.
Tn ebliairh treble she' gave' her ver
sion of what had happened In, the Car
man household the night ef the murder.
After dinner she said she had gone out
and played on the lawn, i j
"Mother went upstairs,", she continued!
"My aunt and my grandmother Were en
the porch. Later I went Inte the parlor
and started to practice oa the piano. My
mother told me to stop. Then I ' went
Into the dining 'room, walked ' through
the hall and sat In a chair In the dining
room ... -Presently' I heard glass break
and a shot. 1 mot my aunt on the stair
I went In my mother's -room. My mother
was there.
"When I ran back Into the hall I saw
my mother put on her slippers and ki
mono and I followed her downstairs
Then I went up again. When she, cam.
up la a minute, I want Into hsr ' room
with her." '
Un croas-sxeminetlon, District Attorney
Smith asked only one question.:
"fcllsaheth!
you sro very fond n v,.
mother, aren't you?" , .
"Tee.' she replied.
'That's all, said the rrnserutor.
Aont and Mother Testify,
Just as Mrs. Sarah Conklln, Mrs. Car
roan's mother, years old, took the
eland, the defendant burst into tears,
(me burled htr face tn her handkerchief,

Mrs. Conklln's testimony corroborated
that given by Mra, Carman and KUsa
