Many Women Continue to Attend Hearing in Stockton, SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL. STOCKTON, June 16.—All week the prosecution h3s been putting In its case against Emma Le Doux, t woman charged with the “trunk mur- der,” of which A. N, McVicar was the victim. It was expected that the State Would rest its case this afternoon, but | continued objections and bickerings between the attorneys prolonged mat- ters and the taking of testimony will not be concluded until Monday. The purély circumstantial nature of the evidence ‘connecting the woman with the poisoning and with the plac- ing of the body in the trunk leaves a wide \scope for the “reasonable doubt” that so frequently operates in favor of the defendant. The only direct con- nection that seems to have been estab lished is that she knew of the man's deéath and attempted to ship the body out/ of the city. Rumor has it that the defense may make.a bold “bluff” and submit the case without putting in any evidence, but upon what this is founded does not appear. The record is being filled with objections. Women continue to attend the trial in large numbers. They are inclined to be severe in their judgments. The witnegges today included Joseph Healy, who met the defendant in San Francisco after her flight from Stock- ton; Miss Belle Quinn, who testified to a convérsation with the woman: Frank Le Doux. a younger brother of ong of the defendant’s husbands and who wrote hls love letters for him, and Jackson Denhis and E.
