was Frank W. Hauck. who was in the
Bechtel home on the day Mabel' a body
was found. .Hls testimony was unim-

Counsel for the defendant asked that
the bills of indictment be dismissed on
the ground of lack of evidence. In an-
ever to this motion District Attorney
Lichtenwalner stated that while the

of sufficient strength to warrant the
placing of the indictments before a
Jury.
“The theory of the Commonwealth."
said Mr. Lichtenwaiuer. “is that 'l‘honi~
as Bechtel was the principal felon. We
believe that he committed the crime.
