AUTOMATIC RIFLE
IN GRAHAM’S POSSESSION I PURCHASED A MONTH AGO. DISCLOSURE IN CHRISTCHURCH. (Bv Telegraph—Press ’Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, October 11. Only about a month ago, when a delusion that his neighbours were poisoning his cattle and that there was a conspiracy against him was already gripping his mind, Graham visited Christchurch and obtained from the arms office at the Central Police Station a permit to buy an automatic rifle. This is said to be the only one of Graham’s weapons that is registered with the police. It is an automatic rifle, said the police arms expert today, that enables Graham to shoot so rapidly, firing from the hip. To loose one bullet after another would be impossible with the ordinary type of repeating rifle.
