Me Because of rulings made by Justice Crane in the Hains+trail at Flush- ing to-day, the outlook for Thornton Jenkins Hains is anything but rosy. | While the presentation of the evidence for the prosecution was extremely weak, that weakness is offset by the weakness of the defense as outlined , by Joseph Shay of the Hains counsel. During the course of Mr. Shay’s opening remarks for the defense Justice Crane handed him two verbal knockouts in the shape of Tulings | upon the admissability of evidence and the standing of the defendant, ‘ Ip the first place the Court ruled out all the story of the relations be- tween Mrs. Hains and Annis except as to what Peter C, Hains and Thorn- ton Hains heard or said about Mrs. Hains and what effect it had on the ptain’s mind. Any statement or evidence as to what Annis may have | justification for the murder is held by Justice Crane to be inadmissable. Further than that, Justice Crane held ‘that, although Capt. Peter C. Hains FLT SAYS should be adjudged insane and therefore | Hains might be gullty as @ principal of | murder tn the first degree for the part he played in the tragedy, B use the Justice refused to let Shay tell any of tne unsavory details jot William <Annis's alleged intrigues jwith Claudia Hains, the wife of Capt. stopped every time he tried to inject | argument or conclusions Into his open- ing, his speech as a whole was a failure. | To Depend on Hains’s Story. |done in so far as such statements may be advanced by the defense as Innocent of wilful murder, Thornton UIP GOMPERS CASE Peter Hains, and because he was Summed up, ft finally developed trom No Chance to Intervene While | mr. shay’s contused statementa that as . |Thornton Hains rests his hopes of Jail Sentence Cases Are dodging the chatr upon a series of somewhat disconnected claims, most of Before the Court. which he can only name—it he does prove them- by his own unsupported word, in direct contradiction of what = WASHINGTON, Dec. 2—In an of- | number of reputable men have already ficial statement iseued at the White | stated under oath, He will seek to explain his carrying of a revolver strapped around his, waist in a holster in what he gays was a pea House to-day in regard to Presidential Interference in the cases of President Gompers, Vice-President Mitchell and ful and proper errand by the claim that Secret Morrison, “of the “American | he meant to take Qs) 4neae brother Federation of Laver, now under sen- Peter out in a motor baat ride‘and car- tence for contempt of court, attention | ried along the gun under his coat ao that in case of @ breakdown or an at- tack by river pirates he would he pre- ic called to the fact that the cases are sUll before the courts and that no mat ter what the President's opinion inay | pared etther to signal for help or repel be as to the justness of the svutences | poarders, mposed, he cannot take any action look- | He will say that it was a chance meet- ing to pardon or express an opinion a8 ing with a man who manages a con- to the merits of the cases.
