ON EVIDENCE PRESENTED
SEATTLE. June 2S. (/P)—Wallace
Gaines in a written statement said: j
“The public mind is rightfully inflam
ed over the brutal killing of my child.
Sheriff Matt Starwici said 1 am the
killer. He must prove it or admit he
done a previous wrong. Therefore, if
their be one scintilla of evidence
against me, I demand an immediate
trial where I will meet my accuser
face to face. I do this so that hte
public’s feeling will be satisf’ed and
so that my innocence will be proved to
the world, and so that suspicion, sur
mise, conjecture and slander wages
against me will be ended forever
Above all. our officials, whose duty it
is in apprehending criminals may then
give their undivided attention to the
task they have before them.”
SEATTLE, June 2S. (£*)—Concern
ing the demand of Wallace Gaines,
that he be charged with murder, Pro
secuting Attorney Colvin said: “I am
not going to charge him with anything
on the kind of evidence seen so far.”
