The capital stock, which is carrled at $65,000,- 000, in the balance sheet is actually worth over $300,000,000 at current market prices, the difference, in a measure, representing good will.

NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, APRIL 2, 1925 CHAPHAN ON STAND PARRES ATTACKS (Continued trom First Page.) amined the five bullets and it was his opinfon that the murder bullet and the one taken from the shelf in the store were not fired from the same gun as the other three, In glving the reason for this start- ling statement, Peterson sald that on the murder bullet and the one found In the store, there appeared @ sec- ond mark that was not on the three buliots fired ai tests, by the prose- cution, He sald that he had examined the bullets supgrficlally and found that the marks testified to by the experts yesterday were very similar but he could not state positively one way or theother without a much closer examination. Alcorn asked him it he had taken any measurements and he sald he had'not, He xgid the same lines were on all the bullets, When asked if he would say that the bullets were fired from the same gun, he said he would not say so without making measurements, Mr, Alcorn did not wish to question him further, Chapman Takes Stand, As Peterson left the stand a hush rn‘.ll over the courtroom: as defenso counsel went Into a short conference with Chapman, and a murmur of excitment, accompanied by a gener. al craning of necks followed immedi- ately as Chapman, the imperturb- babie, glided swiftly past the counsel table and seated himself on the wit- ness stand, The moment to which all had been looking forward had arrived and the notorious oriminal was ready to deny by his own month that the bullet that ended the life of Patrolman Skelly was fired from & gun in his hand, The modern raffies made ®mn fdeal witness, making a deep impression on everyone in the courtroom. He exhibited a remarkably keen knowledge of the law and all seemed agreed that he possesses an exten- sive knowledge of jury psychology. He spoke with a decided Efiglish accgnt. At times he spoke so rapid- ly that on several occasions he had court stenographer was falling be- hind in the testimony. He displayed not the least sign of nervousness and awalted- questions both from his own counsel and Al- corn. Not satified with: answering the questidns asked, he fnsisted on several occassions on going into all details. His actlons and conduct as he testified before the 12 men in whose hands his* fate lies, was de- scribed by members of the bar as the most clever bit of acting ever seen in the superior court, Before he finally completed his testimony, he left the witness stand twice to con- sult With his senior counsel and re- turned to continue his story. Tells of Meeting Shean He started at 10:52 o'clock and in answer to questions by Judge Groechl he gave the following story He met Walter Bhean in June 1924 when he and "“Dutch” Ander- gon went to Springfield at Ander- son's suggestion. He was never in New Britain unless he passed through it on the road to New York. He knew nothing ahout the city and had never heard the name before, He had the revolver which experts had testified was the murder gun when he was captured in Muncie, On cross-examination by State's Attorney Alcorn he told the follow- ing story. He had been convicted of crime on four occasions. He was last con- fined at Atlantic for holding up a New York mall truck and escaped on March 26, 1921. He has known Anderson for eight years and has met many friends of Shean's. He denied that he carried a gun at the time the New York mall truck was held up, but Anderson had a nickel plated gun. Alcorn and Chapman Argued Here an argument arose between Alcorn and Chapman regarding the famous $2,400,000 robbery, and the witness said he had never admitted his implication in that robbery. “Why didn't you say before that you weren't there instead of giving the answers you did?” Alcorn asked: “Because I don’t want to go into any, argument about that now,’ Chapman tuswered, adding, “I- was convicted of the crime in the courts and I will stand by that conviction.” At Muncie he said he shot at someone he did not know was a po- liceman., He was carrying $7,400 on his person at the time when a man askcd him where some doctor's house was and then shoved the muzzie of & gun against his heart. “Jle was not a very prepossessing fellow at best,”” Clapman said, and ‘he shot at him to protect himself |and his money. | “Didn’t you say all you wanted was another shot at that policeman” Alcorn asked. ““I don't think J would be such a eay - anything like that” fool Vhere were you the week before Va, during vou were in Parkersburg, W.
