Show I I Murphy Acquitted In the Murphy murder trial today the question again came up as to the admissibility admissi-bility in evidence of Egans dying statement state-ment This statement it will be remembered I remem-bered was never signed by Egan and on this ground the defense claimed it was not admissible At the first trial Judge Zane allowed the prosecution to submit it but this afternoon he ruled it out As the prosecution depended almost entirely en-tirely upon this statement for a conviction convic-tion Mr Dickson then moved that the I jury be instructed to return verdict of not guilty The motion was sustained I and a verdict rendered accordingly |
