City,” Me Littleton withdrew bis objection. is and is almost effeminate in its pretty loops and flourishes, wh'le the fist of James W. i» sorammy and hh and not nearly so legible nor pretty. iiliam 3, Kinsley, who has been a handwriting expert for twenty years and who gained fame tn the Molineux onee and other fimour trials, was called as a witness for the Prosecution, He was asked whether the writing in the Oliver Osborne let- ters addressed to the Tanger, Kaiser and Unger girls was all by the same hand; also whether it was the same ae the writing of the entry on the reginter of the Motel Kensington, Plainfield, N. J.-"O. Osborne and Mrs, O. Osborne.” Mr. Littleten objected. “We do not deny that these letters to Tanzer, Kalser and Unger were written by the same hand, and we have never claimed that they were written by James W. Osborne, That is outside of the case. But we do ob- Ject to the inclusion of the entry on the hotel register for comparison with these letters, since that entry has not been put in evidence here.” Therefore William J. Kitchen, pro- DPrietor of the Kensington, was put upon the stand. He identified the en- try in his hotel register, It was made on Silnday, Oot. 14, 1914, the day that Rae Tanzer swore James W.

Osborne's checks and letters and the letters to Misses Tanver, Kaiser and Ungar and signed Oliver Osborne,” said Mr, Kinsley. “And James W. Osborne did not write the entry on the hotel register.” It remained for Mr. Littleton on cross-examination to ask Mr. Kinaley ! whether the hand that wrote the Oliver Osborne letters was the hand | that wrote on the hotel register. “T cannot say,” replied Mr, Kinsley “There is not sufficient material there for me to make @ full comparison. | There are certain similarities, but not enough to warrant me in giving @ positive opinion.” Q. Hore is the letter dated Brook- lyn, adttressed to James W. Onhorne, signed Oliver Osborne and handed by Oltver to James W. Osborne. T ask you whether this wae written by the hand that signed the register? A. I cannot say. Q. But “Osborne” occurs three times in the letter and “O. Osborne” occurs twice on the register, Why ean you not form an opinion? A. Be- eause there is not enough material even in these, Phere are certain re- semblances, but T will not give @ ponitive opinion. Mr. Littleton handed the witness an Oliver Osborne letter to Miss Kalsor and asked him if its signature resem- bled that on the hotel register. “I have not compared them before,” said Mr. Kinsley, “and I am not pre- pared to say whether they were writ- ten by the same hand or not. The ‘rine’ in James W. Osborne's signa- ture are clearly formed, while tn Ol- iver Osborne's signature the ‘rae’ run together 80 a» to look lke an ‘mm,’ and sometimes he omits the ‘e’ altogether. In response te Mr. Littleton's ques- tian Mr. Kinsley said about all the Oliver Osborne letters: “In my opinion these letters were written by an effominate man.” “If it were proven to be @ woman's writing would you say sho was o masculine woman?’ asked Mr. Little- ton. “Yes.” “Then the handwriting of these Oliver Osborne letters is in the twilight JAMES.
