C. Stump, Assistant District Attorney. He told officers he had refused to tell the whole story before in an attempt to protect his brother. Of- ficers say that they consider his ac- count of the murder a true one, since it coincides closely with other witnesses' accounts, and also ex- plains certain conditions found in the cabin. James Kashakes has neither denied nor admitted the charge. He maintains that he was entirely unconscious of his sur- roundings or the affair from over- :drinking. Mr. and Mrs. Seymour 1.
