SALUDES CALLED Woman, Accused of Murder, Who Fainted Yesterday, Again Target for Cross Examination, New York, March 2.—Mrs. Paulette Saludes was to be' called upon again today to serve as a target for the cross examination of Assistant District Attorney Brothers, whose grilling yes- terday reduced the French woman to collapse. The woman who has eatey and slept little since Ner trial began Monday for the killing of Oscar Martelliere, in- surance broker, in his office October 16, was unconscious for 30 minutes after she fainted on the stand. She had to be carricd from the room. The prosccutor was intéent today upon resuming the picturization he drew of her yesterday-—of a schem- ing, dcceitfu!, jealously vindictive man who was so chagrined at her jilting by Martellieke that she cold bloodedly shot him. Instead of being duped by .Martel- liere, as she had told the jury, Mr. Drothers attempted to show that she was living under an assumed name, that she lived with Saludes though not married to him, and that Saludes was a deserter from the-French army. Asserting that Mrs. Saludes taunted Mrs. Martelliere after he left his wife and began to live with her, Mr. Broth- ers produced this note from Mrs. Sa- ludes to Mrs. Martelliere, concerning mended clothing: “I am forwarding you by mail a little parcel which may be of some interest to you, I have plenty more of the same sort. If you make love as well as you do mending, there is go wonder she is through with you.” STOLEN LIQUOR PERMITS Papers Presented During, August, 1021, Called fob Delivery of $230,- 000 Worth of Booze, Agents Say.

Senator McGrath was glad both Senators Wilder and Brooks had re- ferred to Governor Baldwin's appoint- ment of Chalrman Higgins, a demo- crat, as chairman of the public utili- tles commission because it gave oppor- tunity to mention that Governor Bald- win sponsored a civil service law which republican legislators had thrown away.
