Also hunted on the same trails is Alvin Karpis, southwestern badman. Authorities said investigation indicated: That Touhy, according to a confession from a civil employe at the Michigan City (Ind.) state penitentiary now in the hands of J. Edward Barce, Indianapolis, deputy attorney general, engineered the escape of 10 convicts Sept. 26, 1933, and not John Dillinger. That Barce, posing as a gangster, had wormed his way into underworld confidence and aided postal inspectors and supervising Police Capt.
John Stege in apprehension of Burns. CA That Touhy had been a frequent visitor at the apartment where Burns was apprehended. That Touhy, using the alias of Dick Day and "Irish," had attempted to consolidate remnants Dillinger gang and his old Chicago following. Tommy" Touhy had served time at the Michigan City prison and it was there that he was reported to have become acquainted with Burns and others who at one time flocked to the crime-stained Dillinger Stege was quoted as saying: "Barce made a contact with the gang. He pretended he was an IndiAna convict and tough- guy and moved in on them.
Finally, through woman he learned where Burns' hideout was. He passed the word to our men and we guarded the place night and- day hoping to get a line on other members of the gang." The ballistics tents on the Burns machine guns, Stege added, may show that Burns was the trigger man in -the by the Dillinger gang on the Merchants' National Bank at South last July. Because of a slaying during that robbery, Burns might be a candidate for the electric chair, Stege said.

In arguing the case Kelly recalled to the jurors Mrs. Saunders' own testimony the indignities which she said the pastor had subjected her before he was found slain in his automobile at Indianapolis last February. The pastor had been attendan embalming school in Indianapolis with a view to becoming a up to the his death to occupy funeral director, but had continued the pulpit of the church at Wabash each Sunday.
"We're not apologizing for any abuses committeed by the slain man but we don't believe he ever committed them," said Kelly. find in these cases," continued the same story you'll always ley. "They'll try to make you believe he ought to have been killed." Kelly argued that a plea of temporary insanity was presented for the purpose of permitting the introduction of evidence detrimental to, the character of the slain man. "And they have painted him as black as they could," he shouted. The deputy prosecutor said that contrary to the defense picture of the slain pastor evidence had been introduced to show the minister was solicitious of his wife, and had made provision for her through insurance policies and had resigned the pastorate at Wabash because his wife's health was affected by social duties incident to the position he held.
Referring to testimony given by two of the state's rebuttal witnesses, Dr. Russell J. Spivey and Dr. F. Poland, both instructors in the embalming school attended by the pasor, the deputy prosecutor said they had portrayed the slain as intelligent, and apt student mana seemingly normal.
The attorney reviewed at some length Mrs. Saunders' testimony during which she described perversions to which she said her husband became addicted in the last year of his life. "She WAS very glib when telling about these terrible he said, "but her memory failed her when she was caught in a trap where she was called upon for evidence that would connect her with this crime." Mathers, who is awaiting trial on the accusation of being the actual slayer of the minister, was goaded by Mrs. Saunders until he committed the crime, Kelly argued. "She imposed on a minded boy," the attorney declared, "she pushed him on and on." The attorney recalled to the jury the evidence of Masil Roe, a 19-year old boy friend of Mathers who testified he accompanied Mathers and the minister on the night of the murder, "Roe told you," said Kelly, "that Mathers said to him, "I've got to do it tonight." "This woman who pretended to be 8 tender, loving wife used this boy to carry out her scheme." The attorney dwelt at length on evidence which he said showed that Mrs.
Saunders after being forced by her husband into an intimate relationship with Mathers wrote affectionate notes to the young man inviting him to accompany her husband on a week end trip to the Wabash parsonage. When court convened this morning following the week-end recess the defense called two local physicians to whom were submitted long hypohetical questions. In these ques1 tions the physicians, Drs. J. D.
Coons and C. Higgins, were asked their opinions as to what would be the effect on the sanity of a woman: subjected to such treatment as Mrs. Saunders said she received from her husband. Both doctors on the basis of the assumptions in the hypothetical case said they were of the opinion that the woman could be temporarily insane. The state called as rebuttal with nesses two Indianapolis officers who had questioned Mrs.
Saunders at Wabash and who previously had testified she gave them a statement in which she admitted planning the killing of -her- husband. The two officers, Chief of Police Michael Morrissey and Detective Sergeant Roy Pope, both denied Mrs. Saunders had been bull dozed or coerced into giving the statement.

TRIBUTE IS PAID ORVILLE WRIGHT Nation's First Aviator Honored, on Thirty-first Birthday of Airplane; Remains Silent. Dayton, 0., Dec. 17 (P) -On the 31st birthday of the airplane, the nation paid homage today to Orville Wright, the "first aviator" "who no longer flies.

A wreath was laid on the grave here.of his brother Wilbur, co-worker in the development of powered flight, and throughout the country airplanes roared in the skies in a "remembrance flight." Orville Wright was at the controls of the powered kite he and his brother launched from the Sand Dunes of Kitty Hawk, N. C.
on Dec. 17, 1903. For 12 tense. seconds the flimsy craft skimmed along on its first flight and then bumped to earth. Aviation had begun from the efforts of the brothers who once ran a bicycle shop.
Wright took the celebration today with calm and quiet, without breaking his characteristic silence. Although he has not flown. for years- in 1926 he flew an army bomber--Wright still works, day in and day out, at his laboratory. Orville and Wibur Wright, the air-minded brothers. to whom the nation took off its hat Monday in recognition of their first successful flight in a heavier-than-air machine, spent a short period of their life in Fairmount township.
Orville Wright, the surviving member of the famous homestead there.
