he desired Bliss to be cslled before the

attend he would ask that hs be examined

objected on the ground that Ina proposed

maintained the pTopriety of the in

vestigated at Boston ana indicted
at 81. Louis. II WAS an old story

furnish the evidence required to convict
him.
Thomas: Have you communicated
with Bliss?'
Coleman: NO"
