Previous Ruling That This Of- fense Can’t Be Committed Before U. S. Commissioner, -'& strong point in the defense of Franklin D, Safford, the Plainfield hotel clerk, who is charged with per- Jury in identifying James W. Os- ‘borne as the man who signed the ho- tel register as “0. Osborne,” the com- anion of Rae Taner, was second to- day when U. 8. Judge Learned Hand feserved decision on the motion of Benjamin Slade, Safford’s attorney, for dismissal of the indictment on the ground that U. 8. Commissioner Houghton had no right to administer {| @@ oath in such a proceeding. It was Sefore Commissioner Houghton that Gafford'’s alleged perjury was com- mitted in the spring of 1915. “I find in the case of Garcelon, 82 eral Court,” sald Judge Hand, “that it has been hold that perjury @nnot be predicated upon an oath Before a United States Commissioner. Tam eurprised thore is nothing which T bavo yot boon able to find to offset this decision.” Judge Hand added that he Intended to make a further search of the law Y and requested Mr. Slade and William A. Rand jr., special prosecutor for the Government, to argue the point before him on the basis of the Garce- + Jen decision. ‘The first witness called to-day in Ree Tanzer tangle was William G Swain, Post Office Inspector, who de- seribed in detail the manner in which Safford came into the same courtroom @nd Identified James W. Osborne, “With Safford that day came Albert J. McCullough, a detective in the serv- fee of the Slades, attorneys for Rae Tanzer,” said the witness. “They halted in the aisle to one side and back of where Mr. James W, Osborne was dtting. I saw McCullough nudge Sat- fora several times to indicate the direc- tion of Mr. Osborne. It was after that that Safford mado his identifica- tion of Mr. Osborne, Wiliam J. Kitchin, proprietor of the Plainfield Hotel, was also beside Sat- ford at the timo of identification and on cross-examination Mr. Slade asked King Edward VII was the best judge of liquor in all Europe — His Scotch was SANDY MAC 10 years old bottled in Leith, Scotland, the grandest Scotch Whiskey ever put into a bottle.

Osborne in the courtroom, “There's the duck.” Swain replied that he had seen Saf- ford speak to Kitchin but had not heard what he said. The Government's next witness, Joseph A. Baker, special agent of the Department of Justice, was put on the stand to prove, according to Mr. Rand, that from the time Safford was. “picked up” until he was ar- rested, charged with perjury, “he was continuously drunk.” Inquiry of this sort was blocked by an objection by Mr. Blade, “We purpose to show,” Mr, Rand explained, “that both before and af- ter the perjury was committed this defendant was drunk, We will also show who gave him the liquor.” Judge .Hand ruled against Mr. Slade on the ground that Safford’s state of mind might be shown. Swain then testified that when he arrested Safford the latter had, in his belief, been drinking and asked for whiskey, ANDANIA SAILING WAITS ON BRITISH ADMIRALTY | Report That Fear of Raider Off Coast Delays Cunarder—Lack of ' Coal Holds Kroonland, ‘The Cunard liner Andanta, with 160 passengers, was ready to sail for Liv- erpool at noon to-day, but her de- parture was indefinitely postponed.
