Chancellor Cuno, Prost dent Ebert and leaders of al! parties | assembled at 10 o'clock for services, made up largely of speeches of re gret at “IFrench bitterness.” The workmen for whom the nation mourned were shot down with ma-| chine guns at the Krupp works after efforts of a French patrol to requ tion automobiles had been ree od.

Attorney Hart displayed copies of | placards, posted thruout the city, ad- |vertising The Star's series, and] | quoted at length from the opening | article in the series. Counsel for the defendant made} no objection to any of these ques- tions, but Judge Hall interrupted Hart several times, intimating that he was going too far. Attorney Reames interposed: | “They can go as far as they like, your honor. We'll meet them on their own grounds. This thing haa been going on for months and months.” Judge Hall permitted Hart to con- tinue for quite a while after this, but finally stopped him, declaring: “There ts a certain mit to such examinations. You may ask the prospective jurora if they will be in- fluenced by what has appeared in the papers, but there is no necessity for all this detail.” Attorney ames made frequent allusions to “Edwin Selvin, the pub- lisher, who also goes under the name of Slease,"" and to his paper, | which he referred to as “a news paper that calls itself the Business Chronicle.” KELLEHER FIGURES IN EXAMINATION He also brought in the Seattle National on numerous occasions, asking veniremen {f they knew Dan Kelleher or any other officers of the bank or if they were under any obligation to the bank, Upon objections from Attorney Hart, Reames asserted: “This is the case of the Seattle National bank against Frank Water. house.” A few moments later, Reames asked a venireman if he “felt free from any control that the Seattle National might exercise,” Hart objected on the ground that the intimation to be drawn from this “isn't fair and tan't true” and his objection was sustained.
