WEDNESDAY, APRIL 5, 1922. CINCINNATI ‘GANG’ IS ACCUSED BY DEFENSE Trying to “Swear Away Life” of Olivia Stone, Attorney Says in Bitter Tirdae Against Prosecution NEW YORK, April 5—Summing up today at the trial of Miss Olivia M. P. Stone, graduate nurse, charged with mur- dering Ellis G. Kinkead in Brooklyn last August, Edward J Reilly, defense counsel, charged that “the gang that rules Cincinnati,” the city that Kinkead once served as corpora- tion counsel, was trying to swear away the life of his client. pecan ll aes Sa ea In dramatic fashion Mr. Reilly chal- lenged Kinkead’s widow, who sat weeping in the courtroom, to defy him to prove his charges that she had been a woman of the underworld, and dared anyone to take the stand and testify that his client, “this good southern girl” lied. With all the evidence tn, court opened today on a tense scene. | ‘Wan and haggard, after a sleepless night in jail, Miss Stone entered the! room weeping. } “I put my trust in God, the jury and Judge Aspinall,” sie said to re- porters as sho took her seat. | Mrs. Kinkead, who has been an in- terested spectator throughout the trial, also showed the effects of the strain. When Mr, Reilly brought her name into his address to the jury, she so lost het composure that for a moment she had to leave the court-| room. She soon returned, however,| and sat crying as he fintshed his ad-| dress. | “If the defense comes forward| with a defense of insanity,” he said, | “the state must prove Miss Stone| sane. It must prove her clear in mind and establish that she knew what she was doing when she shot Kinkead. “This is one of the most tmportant cases that ever has been tried in Brooklyn. All the country is watch- ing it. It involves every woman in the United States, because it involves the honor of every woman in the United States. “You have a right to assume that there is some one behind the scenes, and from the names mentioned here you have the right to assume who it is that is trying to swear away the life of a good southern girl. “The same gang that rules Cincin- nati and which drove Olivia Stone out, has come down here and is hounding her now. They came to @amn a woman's reputation. “Tl stop this speech here now if Marte Gormley will go on this stant and defy me to prove what I said she was. “Kinkead’s relatives. and friends are still alive, but they stay behind the beeness “Let one of those Cincinnati law~ yers come here and say that this good southern girl lies.
