CLAPHAM COMMON MURDER.
MURDERED MAN'S BROTHER
CAUSES A SCENE,
(Received March 15, 2 p.m.)
LONDON, March 14
At the trial of Steiner (or Stinie) Morrison, charged with the murder, early on New Year's Day on Clapham of a French Jew named Leon Beron, there was a somewhat dramatic interlude.
While Morrison's counsel was addressing tho jury a brother of the murdered man rushed towards counsel, shrieking: "He is my brother's murderer!"
Detectives seized and ejected the man, who kept shouting, "He's going to get him off." Morrison remained unmoved. Counsel declared that the prosecution's supposed evidence had broken down.
