LOCKWQOD, Rea] Estate and Insurance CITY HALL MOST OF TALESME FAVOR ACCUSED Four Jurors Already Accepted in Murder Case of Mrs. De Saulles Mineola, Nov. 20.—Only four jurors were accepted yesterday in the first day of the trial of Mrs. Blanca de Saulles, on Aug. 38 of this year. Manning on the charge of murder in the first degree for the killing of her divorced husband, John Longer de Saulles, on Aug. 3 of this yeear. A large number of jurors disquali- fied themselves by admitting that they had strong prejudices In favor of the young woman. Many others were op- posed to capital punishment. Several, who appeared to take a very stern and inflexible view of the duties of Jurors, were objects of peremptory challenges by the defense, while oth- ers who wavered on the question of inflicting the death penalty on a wo- man or admitted that they might be more or less moved by sympathy, were excused by the State. ty-eight men were examined. In the questions touched upon in their questions to jurors, counsel for Mrs. de Saulles allowed a liberal view at their plans for defense. These in- dicated clearly that they will attempt to establish that Mrs. de Saulles act- ed without premeditation in killing her husband and that she was suffer- ing from “defective reason” when she fired the shots. No Alienists. The defense of insanity will be pre- sented in a noval fashion, according to statements by Henry A. Uterhart, chief counsel for the defense, who dis- cussed his plans briefly yesterday. The principal innovation will be the ab- sence of alienists. Mr. Uterhart said that he would not, according to the present program, call a single alienist. Mr. Uterhart would not go further and explain just how he expected to convince the jury that the young wo- man'’s reason was so aifected that she did not know the nature of the act when she killed de Saulles. One thing which threw light on the strategy of the defense was the ques- tion put to every prospective juror ‘whether he would vote to acquit, if he felt any reasonable doubt as to the sanity of the woman at the moment when she killed her divorced husband When this question was first pro- pounded, Justice Manning said that his view of the law was that the State was not obliged to prove the defend- ant sane beyond a reasonable doubt, but that only a preponderance of evi- dence of her sanity had to be estab- lished to justify a juror in bringing in a verdict of guilty. Mr. Uterhart argued that the State had to prove every essential fact be- yond a reasonable doubt and that the | sanity of the defendant was one of the ssential facts.! After authorities had een placed bhefore him on the subject, Justice Manning ruled in favor of the interpretation of the law urged by AMr. Uterhart. District Attorney Chas R Weeks did not make any argument against the plea that it w incum- bent on the State to prove atlirma- tively the young woman's sanity be- yond a reasonable doubt. Counsel for the defense was al- lowed thereafter to place all jurymen on record as purposing to acquit if they had a reasonable doubt as to the defendant’s sanity at the time when she killed de Saulles. The insistence of the defense on this point, together with the decision to do without alienists, was taken as mean- ing that a departure from the Ol:din- ary practice of presenting the ‘“‘un- written law’” side of a case would be adopted. It is expected that the de- fense will content itself by proving from physicians, not allenists, who examined her as to her general health that she was very sick at the time when she killed her husband, and that the temporary suspension of reason in such cases was not infrequent. The Green Monster. The novelty which is expected to distinguish this from other similar cases of insanity defense, with the suggestion of an appeal to the “un- written law”, is that the defense may barely sketch a medical and soqial history for the young woman; ralsing doubts as to her past mental condl- tion, and then leave the State to wrestle with the problem of establish- ing her sanity beyond a reasonable doubt. The other point of difference in thi is that, while jealousy ———————————————————— IMPORTANT TO ALL WOME; READERS OF THIS PAPER Thousands upon thousands of wo- men have kidney or bladder trouble | and never suspect it.

One of his latest achievements was from Hampton Roads to New York city, played its part, it was not Jealousy of another woman, but of the divorced husband’s alleged attempts to win the affections of their 4-year-old child away from the mother. ‘While much hope is pinned on the new technique to be used in the de- fense in this case, the main strength of the case for Mrs. de Saulles is ad- mitted to be the picture which she makes in court. The pathos of the appearance of the young Chilean wo- man can hardly be overestimated. The spectators in the courtroom were startled when she walked into the courtroom with Mrs. Phineas Seaman, wife of the Sheriff. She w emaciat- ed, and apparently had barely the strength to sta up. Her face was deathly pale. arge brown eyes, dark brown hair, and black brows and shes made the poreelain hue of her complexion more striking. The effect was enhanced by the fact that she was seated beside one of her lawyers, ex-District Attorney Lewis J. Smith, who has florid coloring. She only twenty-four and looks younger. Her dress seemed to accentuate her youth. She wore a white waist of severe pattern and a black pleated dress. She sat very erect, with her arms folded and her ves usually on the floor in such a way that the lids were almost closed. expression would indicate that Wi wholly ahsorbed in thousht oblivious th wWhat wias going Show ings The only occasions when she looked up were when Prosecutor Weeks asked prospective jurors if they were personally acquainted with her. Af- ter asking if they were acquainted with counsel for the defense, Mr. Weeks would say: “*And do you know Mrs. de Saulles, the young lady here, who is charged with murder in the first degree?" Mrs. de Saulles would rise slightly and iook up, that the talesman might see if he remembered her. None had ever seen her before. Few Spectators. Tor the opening day of a sensation- al murder trial, with characters prom- inent in society involved and two con- tinents interested, the courtroom at- mosphere was singularly “intimate,” like that aimed at in tiny theaters. The courtroom, which is small, is sit- uated in a wing of the Mineola Court House, surrounded by trees. There were very few spectators, the general public not having been welcomed. The attendance was confined almost en- tirely to court officers, lawyers, re- porters, and other directly interested. Mme. Errazuriz-Vergara, the mother of the defendant. was ill and did not attend, but Amalice and William Er- razuriz, sister and brother of Mrs de Saulles, sat in the courtroom. The only relative of the late John Longer de Saulles was his hrother (‘harles. L. J. Smith. who is now appearing for the defense, was formerly the chief of Prosccutor Weeks. Mr. Weeks was an assistant on the staff of Dis trict Attorney Smith when the Carman I8 was tried, and the two arve fast friends. In that trial they were op- posed by Mr. Uterhart, with whom Mr. Smith now associated. Judge Manning, urbane, but formal, contrib- uted to make the proceeding appear more like o social function. The Judge's rulings were in every case ac- cepted without a word and there was nothing on which prosccution and de- fense clashed. Prosecutor Weeks was mainly inter- ested in knowing whether talesmen considered that they were made of such stuff that they could do their duty as jurors and return a verdict of guilty if justified by the evidence, even providing that it might mean inflic- tion of the death penalty on a young woman. All four of those accepted met this test satisfactorily to him. An- other question which he usually put was: “Would the fact that the husband of this young woman was divorced years old she and \hout ce during the day ast intevest in the proce on S the | for infidelity prejudice you in her fa e MOTHER GRAY'S POWDERS BENEFIT MANY CHILDREN Thousands of mothers have found Mother Gray's Sweet Powders an excellent remedy for children complaining of headache, colds, feverishness, stomach troubles and bowel ir- regularities from which children suffer.

He said that he was not much impressed with them, but when pressed he said he was afraid that they had resulted in his forming an opinion in his mind. “Well, be frank with us.
