I, Nov. 21—Mrs. Bianca ca de Saulles, who is being tried for the murder of her divorced husband, John Longer de Saulles, came into the Nassau County courtroom at Mineola, L. L, yesterday morning with her eyes flashing and her lips trembling. She began at once to talk with animaticn to ex-Judge Lewls J. Smith, one of her lawyers. The contrast between her apparent excitement yesterday morning and her stony demeanoy of the day betore awakened interest, and it was learncd that she had been aroused again con- cerning her four-and-a-half-year-old son, for whosc sake she had shot de Saulles, according to the defense. The boy, it was learned, had failed to appear at the prison on Monday afternoon at the close of the trial, when she expected him. By an agree- ment between counsel for Mrs. de Saulles and for the family of his fath- er, the child, John Longer de Saulles, Jr., has been making visits twice a week to his mother on Mondays and Thursdays. No word had been conveyed to Mrs. de Saulles_ that the boy was not to be permitted to visit her on, Monday, and her worry over his absence was heightened, according to her lawyers, by the fact that she was conscious- of the possibility that visits to her from him might in the future be few. After the young woman had talked to her counsel, Henry J. Uterhart, her leading representative, started to pre- pare an application for a writ of ha- beas corpus to compel the family to have the boy visit his mother. The child is now with the family of Mrs. August Heckscher, an aunt of the late John L. de Saulles, at Huntington, L. 1. Before the papers were ready however, Almuth C, Vandiver, of the firm of O’Gorman, Battle & Vandivi which is representing Charles A. H. de Saulles, a brother of the dead man, entered a conference with Mr. Uter- hart said that he would press the habeas corups proceedings at once, unless an arrangement for visits from the boy was made which was satis- factory to his mother. The boy has not so far appeared in court during the trial. Tt was learned yesterday that Justice Man- ning had been very much opposed to having the child in the courtroom. Mrs. De Saulles has also been unwi ling to have him near her at the trial, Wwhere it might be interpreted that he was being exploited as a feature of the defens After the agreement as to future vistts, Mr. Uterhart said: “I was surprised to learn that the agreement to bring the boy to visit his mother twice a week had been dis- regarded, as that agreement was pro- cured previously Ly a threat to resort fo n writ of habens corpus to prevent the boy from being kept away from his mother. Today T find that they had decided that they were not going to allow the mother to see the boy during the course of the trial. I told Mr. Vandiver ta tell Charles De Saul- les that if he did not want the boy taken out of his influence by a writ of habeas corpus he had better re- consider. After a conference with the justice they came to terms.” Boy Not in Court. Almuth C. Vandiver said that there was no objection to lettin~ the boy see his mother, but that the trial was not adjourned until 4 p. m., and that it meant keeping the boy out until unreasonably late in the afternoon to let him visit his mother. He said. “Yesterday the Heckschers, with whom the boy had been staying, were roving into town and on that account could not take the boy to the jail to see the mother. The boy spent the afternoon playing with the Heckscher children. In addition to that it had not been decided whether to allow the Loy to visit his mother at all during the trial. Hitherto he had been see- ing his mother twice a week from 3:16 to 5 o'clock. Tt was felt thae visits to the mother after court would keep the boy out too late. . “The idea that the boy might visit hiz mother in court did not meet the | approval of Justice Manning, and Mr. Tterhart told me that he did not want the boy in court either. The sug- gestion to put the matter before Jus- tice Manning and let him decide what skould be arranged came from our siGe. As a matter of fact, it was originally made by ex-Senator James W. O'Gorman. No court order was made, but Justice Manning simply brought us to an agreement. The boy will make visits to his mother on Wednesdays and Fridays during the trial from about 1 o’clock to 5:30. George Gordon Battle, who was originally employed by Charles A. H. de Saulles to defend the name of the late “Jack” de Saulles, stated a few days after the murder that he was engaged solely to defend the memor of the dead man, and was not inter- ested in the prosecution of Mrs. de Saulles. Mr. Vandiver, a partner of Mr. Battle, said yesterday that ghe in- for Mr. de Saulles were not confined to the work of excluding from the trial or of em- bating attacks on the name of the late John Longer de Saulles. He A “Mr. Murphy has been engaged to assist the prosecution in ever possible. He has offered to do every thing in his power to help District At- torney Weeks. There have been many points of the case to be looked up in New York, and Mr. Murphy has work- ed on them. We do not anticipate any attack on the memory of Mr. de The association of Mr. Murphy with the prosecution was brought forward Ly the defense as prominently as possible in the examination of jurors. Mr. Uterhart asked this question of every one of the talesmen examined: “Are you acquainted with Deacon Murphy, formerly of the Homicide Bureau of the District Aifarnax's { office in New York and now repre- | senting the family of the late Mr. de Saulles in the prosecution of this case?"” Jurors came slowly again yesterday. Several men were excused because they confessed prejudice in favor of the defendant due to reading of the case, while the majority were dis- missed after peremptory challenges by the defense. Only four were chosen out of thirty talesmen called, leaving eight men in the jury box at the end of the day. Mme. Vergara-Errazuriz, mother of Mrs. Blanca De Saulles, was present in the court room yesterday until the excitement of trial overcame her and , produced a heart attack, which caused her to leave. She spent an hour in another room in the building, and when her strength returned shé visited her daughter, who was by this time in her room again in the sheriff’s quarters in the Mineola jail. Mme. Vergara-Irrazuriz came to this country from Chile on the first steamef leaving Santiago after news that her daughter had killed de Saulles was cabled to her. Because of illness she did not attend the first day’s trial, but she insisted on coming yesterday in spite of her physical con- dition, : Mme. Vergara-Errazuriz came into | the courtroom accompanied by a Chilean Consular officer at this port and her son, William, and her daugh- ter, Amalice. Unlike Mrs. de Saulles, who is extremely emaciated and white, the mother. is fairly plump, with a touch of color in her cheeks. A striking resemblance runs through] the family. Though the sister Am- alice is in good health, she looks enough like Mrs. de Saulles to be a twin sister. Sitting but a few feet in the rear of the defendant, she has occasionally been mistaken for the de- fendant. And members of the family have | the\characteristic of a calmness, bor- dering on stolidity, which has been | sn strikingly exhjbited by Mrs. De Saulles. The mother, sister, and brother sat looking straight ahead, | without the movement of a muscle on | any of the three faces. No change of | expression ever betrayed the fact if any of the question on the juror’'s at- titude toward the death penalty, on his readiness to punish a woman as quickly as a man, or other subjects | produced the slightest emotional re- action in either of them. When Mme. Vergara-Errazuriz was seized with a | heart attack, she spoke to her escort | ande walked slowly with him. She moted away so quiet- she was ill until her absence ncticed later. After she had learned that the boy was to visit her again, Mrs. De Saul- les appeared to lose interest again and gazed on apathetically while strings of complex questions wera presented to the talesman. Because the type of defense on the grounds of insanity, which is relied on to ac- quit Mrs. De Saulles, several unusual problems for a juror are raised. HIS COUGH NEARLY (Continued from First Page.)

Buffalo, Nov. 21.—An attempt by socialist delegates to single out Post- , master General Burleson for attack in connectidn with the suppression of certain newspapers hag been blocked by tht resolutions committee of the' American Federation of Labor. Two resolutions protesting against the suppression of newspapers by the postmaster general’s department have adverse reports from the committtee. The federation’s position demanding frecedom of the press, the chairman of the resolutions committee maimtains, it is said, already has been clearly deflned. Another socialist resolution slated for defeat, it was said, expresses the willingness of the American Federa- tion of Laborjto be represented at ‘‘a conference of international labor for the purpose of discussing internation- al relations and terms of peace. The committee on resolutiong fa- vorably reported and the convention adopted a resolution on woman guf- frage. It read that “‘we hereby affirm our previous declaration in behalf of Jvoman suffrage and the principle of equal pay for equal work regardless of sex.” The resolutions committee reported non-concurrence in a resolution call- | ing upon the president of the United | States to appoint representatives of | organized labor to attend any confer- ence that may be held between na- tions to discuss terms of peace and | that any peace treaty signed should contain labor clauses defining hours and working conditions.
