COLUPSE IS Prisoner Winces Under Final Verbal Flaying of Prosecutor WIFE IS IN TEAR? WHEN DEATH IS DEMANDED, Stolen Money Squandered on' "My Mary" and Other Women Called GUilt Proof READY FOR JUDGE'S CHARGE Jury to Get Camden Man's Fate Thi3 Afternoon Early Verdict Expected Raymond W. Schuck, whose trial for the murder of David 8. Paul, bnnk messenger, is ending in Cnmdcn court house, winced and fidgeted' under the lash of words with which Prosecutor TVolverton exeorlntcd him today in gumming up for the commonwealth. Mrs. Frances Schuck,' the defendant's rife, still weak and ill nfter her col larse In court yesterday, when she nadi a hrnvc effort to help her husband on the witness stand, wept openly from time to time ns she listened to the flow of logic and vituperation which the people's attorney poured forth upon the prisoner. Schuck has distinguished himself throughout the eight days of trial by & frozen nerve thut could seldom ,bc mnc to falter. Quails Under Fire Today, however, as he heard Prose cutor Wolverton'n arraignment of his conduct and dissection of his motives, he stirred uneasily in hln chair and cast his eyes ceUlngwnrd, The prisoner, r.ltting by J. Itussell Ctrrow, his counsel, controlled Ills face, but he would not let tho crowd in the courtroom see the expression of Ms eyes, which he could not control. Mr. Wolvcrton began his address at id o'clock and ended it at 12:114. hay ar. consumed two hours und thlrty foar minutes. In that time he did not piuse once, nor did he nbnto an inch from the position he took of high con demnation of Schuck's crime. When the address was over the emo tions of h11 In the -courtroom were too strong for Justice Kntzcnbnch to care to undertake the charge to the jury. Ho adjourned court, therefore, until 1 :'M o'clock, saying he would consume about mother hour In making the charge and then would give the case Into the hnnnY of the jury. Quick Verdict Expected It is possible that tho verdict which will condemn Schtio.k to death or life imprisolmcnt or will perhaps restore him n free man to his wife and child mar be returned late this ufternoon. The prodigal mnnner In which Schuck flung nu ay the money stolen from the body of Paul was one of the arguments which Prosecutor WAlverton adduced in Ms nrgument that Schuck should be convicted of murder In the first degree. "Had Schuck been innocent." the prosecutor contended, ''he could never fare touched It, for that money was jtalned with a murder thut was foul. He would have avoided It an one would Pestilence. "Hut, not only did he have It, but lie used It ns he desired. He first purchased a fur coat that he had lonx wore promised to his sweetheart nnd paid $1H0 for It. Ho passed money tratultously to the chauffeurs and women with whom he associated and bought himself a diamond ring for which ht paid .210. and thus he recklessl) Pfnt this Ill-gotten money with the iame freedom uh If he had earned It V honest toll, and when the suppl fn short returned to Camden nnd pro cures! more." Mr. Wolverton said Schuck should be Moftn no mercj, us he had shown none jj tap victim of tho crime for which rnu ,) jain(.Si trC(j carcr nwnlts swtence of death. Strong "Influence" Used ..
