D., July 2.—William Gummer must stand trial in the dis- trict court for the murder of Marie 'Wick, Justice Bingham decided at the conclusion ofthe preliminary hear- ing yesterday afternoon. ' He refused ,| the. defense motion to dismiss the de- fendant because of lack of sufficient evidence. In. presenting his argument to the court States Attorney Green built up a wall of circumstantial evidence in- ‘Lended to exclude the possibility of the crime having been committed by any /other man than the defendant.

The only tilt of counsel during the ‘entire hearing came when Judge Bar- nett called Sheriff Kraemer to the ‘stand early in the day to testify to ‘declaration made by Gummer on June 14, It was the first move in an effort ‘to get rid of the damaging testimony given by’Gummer to officials while he was being grilled in a cell at the Cass county jail. State’s Attorney Green ‘objected on the ground that the cross examination was an improper one be- ‘cause the witness was being asked to testify to declarations made not to him but to the state's attorney. The court allowed the first question, but ‘sustained Green’s second objection relative to the same matter, allowing 'the testimony considered to be the ‘mainstay of the state’s mas@ of evi- (dence, to stand.

When Dempsey got home the win- ning punch the sweltering crowd that filled the arena was on its, feet yell- ing. The crowd, so,apathetic during the preliminaries, went wild when the fighters entered the ting. During the three rounds and at the knock- out above all was heard the shrieks of the women as blow followed blow and blood was drawn. Cheer the Frenchman The sudden manner in which the main bout was staged, with postpone- ment of the last preliminary, caught the spectators by surprise. ‘There were cheers when the Am- erican was introduced but the crowd around the arena cheered itself hoarse when Carpentier was introduced as champion of the old world, idol of his country and a soldier of France. As calm and unperturbed a fighter as ever entered the ring, the French airman kept his eyes turned up watch- ing planes circling overhead with a noisy staccato at the very moment the boxers appeared.
