He submitted affida- vits by Miss Reine Davies and by Montgomery Millbank jr., who lived near the Davies place and ran out of his house when the shot sounded The complainantagainst Mrs. Hirsh was Policeman Elmer\E, Raynor of Freeport, who made the accusation on information and belief based on Statements by Magistrate Douras, father of Miss Davies, and by Mrs. Hirsh herself. In the complaint Hirsh with the shoot- was referred to as ynor's affidavit said that Hirsh say after the shooting, "t believe he will want me again after what I did.” Assistant District Attorney Ed- wards, in opposing the motion, stated that he had a clear case against Mrs. Hirsh and asked a week's adjourn- God, did you do it?’ ‘He drove me to do it. timo at it.’ “When I first saw her she had no blood on her face.

Miss Davies made the fcllowing statement to Mr. Edwards: “] ga awn party, and Mr. and Mrs. Hirsh were invited guests, left for home about 11 P, M. an hour later I heard a shot. gone to bed.

I shot my daddy! Mrs. Hirsh went straight homé after thus defeating the chauffeur's efforts to stop her. She went to bed and that is where she was when Dis- trict Attorney Edwards and the police arrived. She told Mr. Edwards that ‘it was all a dream,” but he called her maid, had her dressed and took her to Lynbrook, where Justice of the Peace Neu held court at 3 o'clock in the morning. She was locked up until the doctors had made up their minds about the seriousness of the wound When she was freed she went at oner to the hospital, where she and her husband mingled their tears. Later she went home, hysterical. George M. Levy of Freeport, coun- sel for Mrs. Hirsh, declared that drinking was the trouble. “They were both drunk and there's no use trying to hide the fact,” he suid, "She was first to leave the party and she went home to bed. Then she got up, put on some clothes and returned to the Davies home to look for her husband, She met him and he had an automatic in his hand." Levy said Mrs. Hirsh had given him this version: “When I saw the gun in his hand I didn't know what he intended to d vith it, I ran toward him and less Mr. Edwards would agree not to present the case to the Grand Jury in the interim. Mr. Edwards met this by saying he intended to submit the cause to the jury next Thursday, and that he in- tended to call as witness before that body George Van Cleve, Magistrate Douras, Mr. Millbank, Miss Reine Davies and her chauffeur, Joseph Quash. Judge Johnson then set next Thursday morning at 10 o'clock for the hearing before him Chief Hartmann said to-day that when the wounded mun was on the way to the hospital he said that a man had shot him, But at the very outset he cried: “She said she would get ime and now she did tt!
