Y., Sept. 25.—(U.R) —Earle Francis Peacox today apparently curtailed, chances of using insanity as a defense against the charge of murdering his wife and then burning her body. When he testified, he regarded himself now and in the past as eane. On cross examination, he told of having been examined by several alienists. The questioning of Peacox today concerned almost entirely scenes in the room after he had killed his wife. The witness began to show nervousness as he told how he had seen his wife's bead in a small pool of blood and how he had tried to clean up the blood with waste rags and towels. Then District Attorney Frank H. Coyne started questioning regarding the economic side of the unhappy marital life of Peacox and his wife. It was brought out that some of the furniture came from Mrs. Peacox's mother. "Did you ever give Dolly any clothing between January and April?” he was asked. "No I didn't.” “Did you give her any money during that time?” "Yes.” "How much?” "Sometimes sls a week, sometimes S2O and sometimes $5.” He had testified that during that time he earned sls a week as a radio instructor and picking up a little money on the side in servicing radio machines. Some of the furniture he bought was purchased with the money given him by hie wife. The cross examination finally was completed and Peacox's own attornews started a re direct examination. tDklXlM'iniltlV' SALK <>!’ hi: ci.
