Mrs. Simmons’ good character is no defense, either. “Regardless of Miss Robinson’s or Mrs. Simmons’ character, the case still stands as circumstantial evidence against Carrie Simmons. “I am asking the jury for a conviction in this case.” Adney Will Close Roy Adney, special prosecutor, who has been involved in many heated verbal debates during the trial, will close the arguments for the state. Following this, Judge John W. Hornaday will read his instructions and turn the murder case over to the jury. It was considered likely that Hornaday will give the jury the case Tuesday night, if the attorneys complete their twelve hours of argument in that time. If not, jury deliberations will be started Wednesday morning. The defense, Adney will say, has offered no witnesses, other than the defendant and her husband, to explain where Mrs. Simmons was between 9:30 and 10:10 the morning of June 18, when the family was in Indianapolis to attend a Riley hospital cheer guild breakfast. They told their stories of strolling along Washington street and stopping in two stores, late in the trial. Friedman has testified Mrs. Simmons was in his store “about 10 a. m.” Parr was to open his argument with the characterization of Mrs. Simmons as a grief-bowed woman who always loved her husband and children and who never “harbored the thought” of murder. Courtroom Is Jammed. He will hammer at the state’s charges and again bring Jackson into the case, stressing testimony of defense witnesses that Jackson bought poison in New Palestine several days before the picnic. The courtroom was crowded this morning and Mrs. Simmons, still haggard and worn from more than five weeks in the courtroom, stared ahead of her as Scifres related the state’s case. Her husband, daughter Elizabeth, and sons, Dale and George, were grouped around her along the wall in the courtroom. Under the law, the jury can bring in four verdicts: Guilty of first-degree murder, with punishment of either death in the electric chair or life imprisonment; second-degree murder, with life imprisonment mandatory; voluntary manslaughter, with sentence of two to twenty-one years, and acquittal.

Sherwood, said by the Hofstadter investigating committee to be a “business agent” of Mayor Jimmy Walker of New York, has gone into seclusion with his bride. They almost eluded newspaper men awaiting them as they returned Sunday from Mexico City, where Sherwood had been called by process servers for the committee. He said they planned to remain near here a day or two, and then proceed on their honeymoon as planned weeks ago. He would not name their destination.

On request, sent with stamped, addressed envelope, Mr. Ripley - will furnish proof of anythin* depicted by him.

Following is the explanation of Ripley’s “Believe It or Not,” which appeared in Saturday’s Times: October 31 Is Not Halloween— Halloween, or All Halloween, is the eve of All Saints’ day. All Saints’ day is a festival established by Pope Boniface IV in the year €O9 to commemorate the conversion of the heathen Pantheon in Rome into a Christian church by leave from the Emperor Phocas. This official consecration nook place May 13, 609, and the pope directed that the anniversary of the day be celebrated henceforth as All Caints' day. The proper date of All Saints’ eve (Halloween) therefore is May 12, and Halloween was celebrated on that date for many centuries. Nov. 1 was one of the great festivals of the heathen nations of the north. It is assumed that the date of Halloween and of AllSaints’ day later were shifted in accordance with the policy of the Roman church to supplant heathen by Christian observation.

STRONG BUYING FORCES WHEAT PRIGESHIGHER Russian Exports to Cease, Says Ambassador of Soviet. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Nov. .2—A strong and rising Liverpool market with strength in securities enabled wheat to further its upward trend on the Board of Trade today despite profit-taking selling and an accumulation of selling orders over the week-end. The Russian news was more bullish but otherwise the situation was unchanged. Corn partook of the strength in wheat and was fractionally higher. Oats moved sluggishly but was firm. At the opening wheat was % to 7* cent higher, corn was unchanged to % cent higher and oats unchanged to cent higher. Provisions were slow but strong. Predict Higher Values Liverpool started slowly but met profit-taking at the top and was 1% to 2% cents up at mid-after-noon. Sentiment is not as unanimously bullish as was the case last week. There is no lessening in the idea that values are destined to go higher but the trade largely is of the opinion that the advance has been too rapid for the technical good of the market. The removal of Russia as a threat in the export field is the outstanding feature in the world situation. This seems to be confirmed by a copyrighted cable to the Toronto Globe which says that on the authority of the Russian ambassador to France, the Soviet Union will export no more wheat this year or next. Cash Corn Firm In addition to the light movement of new corn, the increased cash demand from local industries and the east is keeping the market strong. The late advance is likely to induce further holding on the' part of the farmer. Although oats advanced 5 cents in the last week, there has been no change in the situation. The market is following the other grains with no news independent to itself of any importance except perhaps the indications of any export business.
