Untti this morning it hed been thought that Mrs. Mohr and the two negroes Would go to the ecene of the shooting, but when court was con- vened they all watved thir right to bo present there, So the jury, the Judge and the lawyers, @o6ompanied by a large crowd of newspaper ro- porters, went to the road. They took the train to Barrington @tation, and there @ great four-horse omnibus took the jury and Judge and lawyers co-defendants the locality at whieh tho took place. Before they arrived the Mohr motor car was driven to the scene by Har- rington Anthony, former President of Barrington, in whose custody it has been ever since the shooting,» It had not been cleaned in any way and had been under lock and key. DEATH CAR 18 DRAWN UP TO THE SCENE. Mr. Rice first had it drawn up be- side the roadway opposite a post at the other end of the road, the top of which had been smeared with white paint to distinguish it from the oth- ers, It supported a ine of barbed wire at the edge of a patch of woods and shrubbery, now all bare of leaves, but indicating a heavy foliage in the summer time, The White-topped post was the first exhibit to which Mr. Rice directed at- tention, then his hand swept to the eastward and indicated the trees and undergrowth. “Now, gentleman, tf you will go to the rear of the motor car,” Mr, Rice said, while (he twelve men were herded there by the court attendants, “I will direct your particular atten- tion to this slit in the top of the driver's seat on the left of the car. (It was the cut a wide flying bullet had made.) And T want you to note Iso the width of the rear seat and the fact that this Is a left-drive car, You will also note the stains on the leather cushion on the left and,” aa Chief of Police Robbins of Barring- ton lifted tho rear seat, “these stains under tt.” The jury looked and saw a great sealy brown patch which looked as if some one had emptied a coffee pot, grounds and all, there. Just as the jury was about to move away, William H. Lewis, Srown's at- torney, asked that the atention of the jury be called to the height of the folded top as it lay across the rear seats, the slant of the seats and the distance from the radiator to the rear of the car, This was seemingly In connection with the rumored intent shooting The to cleanse and purify, the Ointment to soothe and heal those con- ditions whith affect the purity and beauty of the skin, scalp and hair, Samples Free by Mail ose Se Snr SChicure, | Wasictale.

Further to simulate the conditions, the lights of the car were turned off and the fury was mado to stand back and look up and down tho roadway, to note it's grade and the surrounding objects. When the jury had had its fill of the gruesome car Mr, Rice bade the Jurymen take @ look across the hind the white topped post. It ts across this bit of woodland that the two negroes are alleged to have come to lle in wait for the physician. ‘They are also declared to have fled across it to the place where the motor cycle had been hidden, which tho State charges Mrs. Mobr had bought to ex- pedite the murder of her husband, BARBED WIRE FENCE WAS CUT FOR ESCAPE. ‘Then the muddy party moved south- ward along the Washington or Nyatt Road to Lake Drive, the roadway about Echo Lake. After slopping along for 300 yards a halt was made beside a barbed wire fence, the wires of which had been nearly severed with cutters. To these cuts Mr. Rice asked the jurymen to pay particular attention. Here, according to the State, the two negroes emerged after thelr flight across the wooded lot and hastened up the drive to the hidden motor cycle. It was about 400 yards diagonally from the spot on which the gray motor car had been placed, Now tho jury was taken to a spill- way box at the edge of the lake and asked to bear it in mind because) * here the negroes are sald to have thrown away thelr revolvers after the shooting, When a moment later the walk was taken up again, the gray motor car came puffing on be- hind, as if the chief “property” in the tragedy were determined to be kept in mind. The next stopping place was at the side of the drive where a motor- cycle quite new and shiny, had been set up. This was tho identical car, the State claims, which was used by Brown and Spellman, Beside the car a pathway led eastward to the Rhode Island Country Club, Mr. Rice called the attention to the newness of the car and to the fact UWPNANEREEUEUUTULULUUELUU AAU UUs ING Aven BETWEEN STW GOTH AVES. \ A Favorite!

He. re- quested the Attorney General to im- press upon the jurymen that this was January and that the foliage condi- tions were very different from what they would be In August. Mr, Ed- wards wanted the jury to note that the motoreycle had only one seat. A little further on another halt was made at the side of the lake, and Mr. Rice pointed out an electric light fas- tened to a pole. It was here, the State will claim, that two fishermen, Sam- uel Selley of Providence and Albert Ducharme, Nyatt, saw two negroes the night of the murder and perhaps half an hour after it was done, push- ing a motor cycle along this road in the direction of West Barrington, It was the overhead light, the fishermen said, which enabled thom to eee that the men were negroes. ‘This was the last exhibit shown to the jurymon, and a few yards further on the big four-horse bus picked them up and carried them to the train. On the way through Providence the Jury stopped at the big residence Dr, Mohr occupied on Elmwood Avenue at the time of his death, and, diagonally across the street, the little yellow and white cottage in Keservoir Street, where Mrs. Mohr lived after her sep- aration from the doctor. It was from here, according to report, that Mra, Mobr kept watch of those who visited Dr. Mohr and those he entertained there. The contrast between the two homes is very sharp from a worldly point of view, MRS. MOHR UNMOVED AT STORY OF MURDER, Previous to the trip of the jury, feet from the negroes, had her face set in hard lines as the prosecutor spoke, After outlining briefly the things the State intended to prove, the de- Ivberateness of the attack and tts de- tails as already reported in the newspapers, the jury left the court, for the scene of the crime, ——— HOW HE KNEW It, (Prom the Houston Post.) “Do you believe that there ts really | something which can Invariably tell when a man is lying?” “1 know It.” “Ah, perhaps you have seen one of the Instruments?” “Se EE A RA Ba Red ih What Is the Matter with the Light?

Wat Stouis Goutists and Cprcians Deputy Attorney-General Abbott Phillips made a brief opening for tho prosecution. He characterized the murder of Dr. Mohr as the most cold-blooded and cowardly crime ever broadly, and the speaker turned from the jury to face him, “Spullman is the one sitting there with a smile on hia face,” he said, and then Brown, too, smiled.
