SHtW EVIDENCE IS TIGHTENED (Continued Front Page 1) By this afternoon it is expected Prosecutor William H. Remy of Marion County will get his star witnesses. Shaw's colored associates, who will testify he pawned the watch of the dead girl, his sweet- | heart, to whom he gave the diamond ring, and others who saw him with the Jewelry the morning Mrs. Whelchel was found dead. Made Defense Witness Detective Giles was made a defense witness by Kivett after ha, had testified for the State. On cross examination, Kivett asked Giles If he was testifying from memory or a note book. Giles said a note book and Kivett demanded to see it. Running through the notebook, Kivett came upon an entry concerning a visit Giles made to the home of Henry Basson, farmer, who had said he had seen two white men In ,an old Ford with a white woman apparently ill, about ven miles west of Indianapolis on t e Ranville road the same night of t.te Whelchel murder. “Has Mr. Basson been subpoenaed?’ Kivett asked. “No,” Remy answered. “We ran down a lot of false stories.” Giles was on the stand the greater part of the morning. Tells of Tire “Did you examine the auto that belonged to Shaw,” Remy asked him after he had taken the stand. “Yes," Giles answered. “Please describe the tires." “The left rear tire was a Goodyear molded, non-skid. The left front tire was a Goodyear allweather tread.” “Did the left rear tire have a clearly defined pattern?” “It did." ‘What did you observe at lowa and East Sts.?” “The tracks of an automobile, of the left wheels, both went up on the sidewalk. The tracks gan about 150 feet along the sidewalk.' ' “Was there a well-defined pattern of tires on tha walk?” “The left rear tire," was Glle’s answer. / •Was the pattern on the walk the same as the pattern on the left rear tire of Shaw's aotumobile?” “Exactly the same." Mud in Gutter Giles explained that there was sticky mud in the gutter of the unimproved street. He said the tires made a clear imprint two or three inches deep in the mud just where the wheels went up over the curb. Neighbors had covered one place with a board, he said, to preserve the tracks. v Giles on cross-examination admitted there were thousands of similar tires in use. Courtroom Jammed The little Circuit Court room was again Jammed, as on Wednesday. Every available inch of standing room is utilized and spectators sit on the edge of the Judge’s platform. Wednesday afternoon on cross-ex-amination of Ben R. Riche, 1037 S. East St., motorman of the Garfield street car which carried Miss Whelchel to her room, the defense attempted to bring out the fact that a strange elderly woman who alighted with her might have been a man In disguise. “You know about all your customers?” asked Kivett. “I knew Miss whelchel, and a lot

of others who rode my lines," said the motorman. “This woman was not a man in disguise.” “How could you tell?" demanded the attorney. Way of Telling “There Is a way of telling," said Riche. “A man gets off facing to the front, and a woman faces the rear. This old woman got off fa - ing the rear. Thus I knew she was a woman.” “How did Miss Whelchel get off?" “Facink the front,” replied the motorman, with a smile. “She was used to riding street cars.” Lack of the spectacular marks the trial. Step by step, thus far, Remy has laid the preliminary foundation for introducing his major testimony. Cross-examination of State witnesses has occupied more time than direct. Few clashes between attorneys occur. In the first trial State evidence was Introduced only over countless objections. A picture of the muddy body of Miss Mhelchel was shown the Jury by Remy, after it was Introduced by the defense. The jurors eyed It Impassively. Kivett appears anxious to help the State Introduce what evidence it has, at the same time belittling It. ROME SPEAKS ON TRANSFER (Continued From Page 1) officially through the Vatican organ, Asservatore Romano. “The transter was preceded by months of deliberation and any hint In advance was withheld so as not to affect the solemnity of the decision. Nc Reconsidering “However, the Pope and the prelates had passed definitely on the matter hefore announcement on Monday and there has been, as stated, no thought of reconsidering the appointment," the United Press dispatch stated. At the residence of the bishop this afternoon, the Rev. Dr. Elmer J. Ritter, secretary to the bishop, said that no official word had been received here. As soon ns the official appointment Is received here Bishop Chartrand Is expected to issue a publio statement. Although It Is admitted he has the power to refuse the appointment, it is pointed out here that the promotion is “the desire and the will of the Vatican." It would require at least thirty days for Bishop Chartrand to close his official business in this diocese and to make preparations of taking up his new duties In Cincinnati. No Precedent Although it is admitted that a bishop has the right to decline transfer from his own diocese, but It Is contended by students of the situation that at no time In this country has such a promotion from Rome been refused. It Is pointed out in Cincinnati that since the Pope has named Bishop

John T. McNlcholas of Duluth, Minn., as Bishop Chartrand’s successor in Indianapolis, It is the belief that Bishop Chartrand will not refuse. The ceremony of elevation of Bishop Chartrand to tho archbishoprio may be as simple or as elaborate as be desires. A consecration ceremony Is not necessary because the Rev. Chartrand Is a bishop. Meets Prietss The official step necessary Is that Bishop Chartrand or his representative meet with the consultors of the Cincinnati diocese, Including six priests, who will examine his official papers of appointment from Rome. The secretary then draws up the official papers which will be preserved In the archives of the archdiocese. If he desires, Bishop Chartrand may have an official Installation in the cathedral at Cincinnati where high Catholic dignitaries from all parts of the country, priests and lavmen would pay him honor. But before he can so function, the new archbishop must receive the pallium from Rome, a symbol made of wood, which is blessed by the pope. 200 CALLED IN SHEPHERD CASE (Continued From Pag© 1) earth by the four winds of truth," O’Brien stated. “The case obviously Is a frame-up—simple, but not pure.'* pure.” O’Brien said that White, the missing State witness, and Earl P. Clark, another “ace" for the prosecution, have come to him and offered to deny any knowledge of the alleged plot to poison Billy. , Philip Barry, called for Jury service In the trial, told State’s Attorney Robert E. Crowe he had been approached by a man who offered to make it “worth while” for Barry to work his way into the jury box. “Work your way Into the Jury and we’ll make It worth your while,” the man suggested to Barry, according to Barry's statement to Crowe. Ward Politician Barry told Crowe he was not certain of the man's name but recognized him ns a ward politician known to him only as “Cal." Crowe at oooe dispatched officers to “get the man and oon’t come back without him." Wlilliam Scott Stewart and W. W. O’Brien, Shepehrd's attorneys, both denied indignantly that they were In any way connnected either with the Jury or witness tampering. "They know they can’t convlot Shepherd of murder and they’re try. ing desperately to get something else on us,” Stewart said. Shepherd, meanwhile, sitfr quietly In his chair, utterly oblivious to the bustling of rival attorneys. He nibbles on cough drops and looks oceasionally to smile at his wife, Julie, who sits across the room, mumbling prayers and chating with Miss Elsie Gunn, her pastor’s secretary.
