(Special From Staff Correspondent of The Evening World.
MINEOLA, Oct. 24. The trial of Mrs.. Florence Carman for the
murder of Mrs. Louise Bailey entered upon its final stage this afternoon,
when counsel for the defense began .to sum up. The case will go to the
jury soon after sundown, and It Is
CanrflHrwiu be found either innocent
, Mr. Graham began summing
He centered his attack on Celia Coleman. He said the jury would have
to choose between the story of a confessed perjurer and the story of little
Elizabeth Carman, who said she "knew she wouldn't go to heaven if she
didn't tell the truth."
The defense opened to-day's session with a ,very deaf witness named
Rudolph Loewe, who said he saw a
man home just after the shot that
District-Attorney brought out that
of the man he saw running fit harrell, the tramp who saw he saw Mrs,
Carman fire the shot and then ran away to avoid getting 'into trouble.
Mr. Graham ovrran his time, finishing after 4 o'clock. District'
Attorney Smith then started to round up the State's case.
The Jury which took the fate of Mra . Florence Carman In It hands to
day had riming in Its ears a new analysis and arrangement or the evidence
tr DieWct-Attorney Smith, which required a new argument for the defense
by Attorney John J. Oraham. Mr. Smith's new angle of attack took one
point from the evidence of Cella Coleman and 'two from the principal wit
neaaei of the defense, Mrs. Carman and
had, the significance, of the facts arranged for the judgment of the Jurors
ikM worn as follows:
First Cella Coleman, the negro maid,' confessed liar In defense of the
Carman family, confused and terrified by theposslble consequences of her
Untruthfulness, fell back on the truth as her only way out of trouble. She
Mid, In her final narrative, the Importance of which she showed no sign of
realising, Mrs. Carman went out, there was a shot, she came In In a moment
and said "I shot' him," and addjd, "See," and showed a revolver.
SLAYER THOUGHT DR. CARMAN WAS SHOT.
Second Dr. Carman said that when ha heard the glass In his offlco
window break he turned and saw a revolver protruding Into the room and
simultaneously ducked. He dropped behind the chair simultaneously with
hs shot. Mrs. Bailey remained upright, but he had dropped as If shot A
,- person outside must have thought he waa shot
Third Mra. Carman, denying that she went downstairs before the
shot admits that she went to the door of bis office and listened until she
heard Dr. Carman's voice, or as District-Attorney puts It, "Had not killed
Btr husband," and then went upstairs again and went to bed frightened, but
contented. As against this It was the Intent of LaW er Graham to point out
the general unreliability oi ceiia uoieiu.u uu iuj msi inai ner testimony
wM the result of a long course of nagging by the District-Attorney and
tfeat the story took the course suggested to her vivid imagination by the
constant urging of the Distrlet-Attorney along lines which the Dlstrtct-At-a'ntitftllv
believed true.

TOT.O OROl'NPS. Oct 24. The
Mrnwn and Cornell football forces
clashed to-day for the first time since
, I sn, (t was the only hlg football
.contest to be etaged In New York,
but this fact didn't seem to excite
the football fans. They were very
slow In getting around, Half nn hour
before sjamo time less than 3,000 of
the rah-rah byos had put In an ap
pearance. It looked as If thn big
game down at Prlnoeton proved the
real attraction.
The Cornell team, about thirty
strong, were out early for practice.
There was only a faint cheer. Indeed,
j ! weren't enough Cornell rooter.
on hand at this time to make a noise.
Thn numbering of the players was
a change commented upon by every
one In tho stands. At last thn spec
tators had a chance to know who waa
who when .i play wan made. The
numbers warn sewed to the baoka of
sweaters nnd were largo enough to
be rad from any part of thn stand.
Thn Ilrowu squad raced ncross the
fl hi at 2.20. Thn crowd hnd Increased
to about throe thousand but still
thorn was nonn of that real college
enthusiasm.
FIRST QUARTER.
Cornell kicked off to Hrnwn's 20
yard Una and Murphy rushed It down
thn field for twenty yards. Brown
then had to kick. The ball went over
tho line. It was brought out to Cor
nell's twenty-yard linn, Then Cor
nell showed tho stuff that Is making
her tbe most feared team among the
big show, .Successive gulns by Coll
yer, Hhulor and llarrett brought the
ball to llrown'n live-yard line. There
was a first down with a gain. On
the next piny llarrett was shoved
over thn line for a touch down In
inoout eight minutes. Rsrrett kicked
the goal Hroro Cornell, 7: llrown, 0.

When play continued there was an
exchange of punts that landed the
ball in llrown's possession In rultl -Held.
Three assaults In the line yielded
llrown fifteen yards, Murphy carried
thn ball to Cornell's tblry-yard line.
On the next play Murphy got around
Cornell's left wing. He was downed
on thn Ithscans' two-yard line. Mur
phy tried again, but was stopped one
yard from tho line. On tho next pluy
llrown was poualtxed for orTsldu play.
