zz TO TEUAS EXDGE John W. Brar, Nationally| Known, Denies Stabbing Court Stenographer. By the Associated Press AUSTIN, Tex., November 11.—Ac- cused of stabbing to death a Supreme Court stenographer, John W. Brady, former Civil Appeal Court judge and | nationally known barrister, denied to- day in his jail cell all knowledge of the murder. Brady is charged with the| alaying Saturday night of Miss Lehlia | Highsmith, 28. His lawyer, Sam Dickens, said Brady. who is 59, had no knowledge of Miss Highsmith’s death or the events imme- | diately prior thereto, adding that the | former judge of the Third Court of Civil Appeals was “shocked” when he learned murder charges had been filed against him. Wife to Stand by Him. | ‘The first person admitted to the ac- cused man's cell was his wife, to whom the news was broken by two Sisters of Charity, Mrs. Brady's companions on errands of mercy in the poorer sections of Austin. When Mrs. Brady came out she declared she would stand by her husband “in all his trouble.” Brady’s attorney said Brady went Saturday to the Texas University-Bay- lor foot ball game and later with friends who were drinking. Miss Highsmith, stenographer for the Supreme Court ~Commission of Ap- peals, was stabbed to the heart with what was described as a 12-inch knife soon after she alighted from an auto- mobile in front of her apartment. The only witness, Frank Graham, jr., a stu- dent at the University of Texas, refused to tell his story to any one except the county attorney. Quarrel Is Overheard. Just before the stabbing F. R. Mc- Naughton, inside the apartment house, heard a man and a woman quarreling on the front porch. Then he heard a scream, he said. He ran out and wrested a knife from Brady's hand. Brady, he said, had one finger cut, but said nothing. Officers who arrested him said he seemed in a daze. Miss Highsmith's stepmother, in Houston, was appraised of her death, but her father was on a fithing trip and could not be located. Brady formerly was county attorney of Travis County, member of the Third Court of Civil Appeals, assistant attor- ney general and an attorney for the State banking board during the sdmin- istration of former Gov. James E. Fer- guson, his friend. Graduate of the University of Texas, he has been in- terested in the university's affairs, and an active worker in the Knights of Co- lumbus. I GIRL BURNS TO DEATH. Twin Sister, Three Years Old, Is Expected to Die. FRANKLIN, Ind, November 11 (#).— A fire, apparently set by matches in the hands of three-year-old twin _girls caused the death of one, Inez Loyce DeCoursey, and probably fatally burned the other, Irene Joyce, living near here, late Saturday. The parents, Mr. and Mrs. Everette L. DeCoursey sald the girls would have their fourth birthday in December, evidently got the matches from the pockets of older brothers, with which they set fire to a straw stack. ‘The children were in the care of their father, working a fleld nearby. ‘When the father saw the blazing straw stack and ran to the scene of the fire, he found Irene Joyce, with her clothes ablaze. The body of Inez Loyce was pulled from an opening in_ the tack, here shehwg thought to have FOR RENT Two Rooms, Kitchen, Bath and Reception Room.
