BURCH PALES AS NEW WITNESS IS BROUGHTJ^ORTH (Continued From Vage One.) probable he will be associated In the defense of his former wife. With Obenchain was the Kev. A. W. Burch of Evanston, 111., father of Arthur Burch, also under Indictment for the murder. Word reaching here shows bis faith in his son’s Innocence still holds. That word, carried to Burch's cell, brought a smile to bis face and brought bark the calm, unruffled attitude of the danner little bespectacled man. Efforts to raise a $50,000 defense fund will be made by relatives and friends of Btirth and Mrs.. Obenebaln, It was learned when preliminary arrangements were being made for the trial. A leading criminal attorney of this city, who asked that his name he wlthv held, disclosed that frieDds of Burch'* family had approached him concerning the case and had assured him that $25,000 could easily be raised for Burch's defense. When the attorney informed those who consulted him that he would not enter the case unless he was retined to defend both Burch and Mrs. Obenchain he was told that such an arrangement would be satisfactory and that a joint defense al ready had been decided on. The parties who conferred with the attorney stated they represented Burch's parents. The $50,000 fund will be the largest ever raised for the defense in a murder trial In Los Angeles. BEER MOTIVE FOR MI KDER. Meanwhile authorities w f th an accumulation of circumstantial evidence were still trying to find a motive that might have led Burch to kill Kennedy. This motive. It is believed, will come with a revelation of Mrs. Obenchain’? relation r o Burch, and this relation may be brought to light if she decides to tell all she knows. As the State redoubled its efforts to fill the links of evidence with which 1 hopes to convict the pair its case stood: Mrs. Obenchain—Admits she wss with Kennedy at the time of the “midnight murder."

Known to have kept vigil on Kennedy’s offices previous to the killing from his hotel directly across Broadway. Nervous and worn from a week’s confinement in Jail, Burch is believed by of•ficers to be near the point of breaking the haughty silence which he has maintained with uncanny fortitude since his arrest. Late yesterday, for the first time. Burch winced, turned pale and apparent ly tried to shield his face when confronted by Charles Summar. the State’s latest witness, whose testimony so far officials have guarded with extreme care. By actions rather than by words, District Attorney Thomas Lee Woolwine and his aids indicated that this new witness has been a "great find." Following the meeting between F.ureh and Summar in the county Jail, the witness was taken to the district attorney's office. BIRCH RECOGNIZES NEW WITNESS. The meeting between the two was one of the most dramatic incidents so far in the developments of the case. Burch was sitting in a corner of'the visitors’ room when Summar entered. Recognition was apparent the moment Burch glanced at the newcomer. His face became pale and ha rose to his feet. “1 don't see why I should let all these birds take a look at me," he said with an affected air of composure. Deputy Sheriff Bright led Summar to the spot w-here Bur h was standing and as’.ted him to remove the big colored glasses he has worn continuously since entering the jail. Burch refused. The officer, prisoner and witness then entered a private room. The deputy and Summar emerged a few minutes later, smiling In an effort to find the barrels of the shotgun stock found at Santa Monica, naval officials ofTered their aid to civil authorities. A United States submarine towed a Navy diving crew to the spot and the divers are at work. The district attorney is known to be in possession of a deposition made by Mrs. James A. Warren, wife of a Santa Barbara banker, who was a passe iger on (he train that brought Burch to u.os Angeles. The deposition charges that Burch said : "I'm going out to I/os Angeles to see that a certain party treats a friend of mine right. If he doesn’t I'm going to get him.” SAYS HE TOOK GUN CASE ALONG CHICAGO. Aug. 13. —When Arthur C. Burch, under indictment in Los Angeles for the murder of .1.

Bart.ett. a former justice of the peace of Evanston. Bartlett sat behind Burch on the train that brought him from Etaastao to Chicago and took particular note, he sa.’s. of Burch's baggage. Bartlett also said he unintentionally overheard a conversation between Burch and n young man who was his companion. ‘ I know Burch bv s'giit only," Partl*tt said, “hut I know him well. In ti.e summer of 19’J) I saw him on the streets In Evanston night after niglit with Mrs Obenchaln. They used ‘o p irud.j through Main street all the tim<\ "On the morning of July 21.

Miss Phillips said she and Stoffer had lived as man and w fe in within less than a block of Stoffer s borne. Both women professed love for Stoffer. yet felt no enmity toward each other, they said.

PLAN TO BUY SETTING FOR RILEY HOSPITAL City Officials May Ask Increased Tax Levy to Purchase Hospital Tract. Dr. Herman G. Morgan, secretary ot the board of public health, was asked today by (Tty Councilman Gustav G. Schmidt to lay before the health board at Its regular meeting Monday evening a proposal that It raise Its tax levy for 1922 from 7 to 9 cerits and use the proceeds of the extra 2 cents to purchase land between the city hospital and Robert Long Hospital as a convalescent park for the two Institutions and create a more beautiful setting for the Riley Children's Hospital, which the James Whitcomb Riley Memorial Association will start to erect on the west side of the tract. The tract is bounded on the north by the city hospital, the south by tlie Long Hospital, the east by Hiawatha street and the west by Maxwell street. Most of it Is occupied with small dwellings. SCHMIDT SAYS SCHEME IS O. li. Councilman Schmidt said he was cou\erted to the idea of purchasing me ground two years ago while Inspecting the city hospital with a council com mittcc and that now that tile Htley Hospital Is to be built It is necessary that It bo bought and beautified. \X hen the Rliey Hospital is complete there will be a crescent of hospital plants, four olocks In length formed by the Indiana l diversity School of Medicine, the Long Hospital, the Riley Hospital and the city hospital. The ground which the city may purchase lies in the center of the crescent. t redertek E. Schortcmeier, secretary of the Riley Memorial Association, said the association expect* to acquire grout and to the west, of the tract ti.e city has been asked to buy. Tue association probably will have the land condemned, which may be done by the trustees of Indiana University who are cooperating In the movement. Ground for the Cist rmlt of tbe children's hospital probably will, lie browen on Riley 's birthday, Hot 7. The State has aproprlated $125,000 for the hospital and private contribtihnve been gratifying, Mr. Schortmeler said. THINKS COUNCIL WILL FAVOR. Mr. Schmidt declared he feels certain the city council will insist upon tlie health department Including Hie purchase of the ground In Its budget. Dr. Morgan stated he believe* all member* of hi* board nre favorable nnd If they are *o the prorerty will be appraised inmie diately. If 1t la found the council has • uch power It will tie asked to eondetnn the land and then permit tbo heslth department to acquire it. Preliminary estimates place the cost of the property around SIOO,OOO. I’roeeeds of a 2 cent levy would rals# this sum. It Is more advirable to raise the money by levy than by bond issue, it was stated, because lee* red tape is involved. The counell must net upon the annual appropriation nnd tax levy ordinances not Is fur than three weeks from next Monday cvenlne.
