Detective Black says, "Mr. Starnes, who was there with me, did not call my attention to any blood splotches."
Detective Scott says, "We went to the metal room where I was shown some spots supposed to be blood spots."
A part of what they thought to be blood was chipped up in four or five chips, and Dr. Claude Smith testified that on one of the chips he found, under a microscope, from three to five blood corpuscles; a half drop would have caused it.
Frank says that the part of the splotch that was left after the chips were taken up was examined by him with an electric flash lamp, and it was not blood.
Barrett, who worked on the metal floor, and whom several witnesses declare claimed a reward because he discovered the hair and blood, said the splotch was not there on Friday, and some witnesses sustained him.
There was testimony that there were frequent injuries at the factory, and blood was not infrequent in the neighborhood of the ladies' dressing room. There was no blood in the elevator.
Dr. Smith, the City Bacteriologist, said that the presence of blood corpuscles could be told for months after the blood had dried. All of this bore upon the question as to whether the murder took place in the metal room, which is on the same floor as Frank's office. Excepting near the metal room at the place mentioned where the splotches varied according to Chief Beavers' testimony, from the size of a quarter to the size of a palm leaf fan, there was no blood whatever. It is to be remarked that a white substance, called haskoline, used about the factory was found spread over the splotches.
