that some other judge should sit in the
case providing counsel for the defence
shoulo come to an agreement with the
prosecution as to who should hear it.
Attorneys Harmon and Riese held a
consultation. this afternoon. with
states Attorney Deneen with the object
OF deciding on some other Judge to hear
the case When court reconvened at 9

announced that they had been unable to
reach an agreement as to Judge to
near the case in their consultation with
states Attorney Deneen. Attorney

TO Judge Gary's overruling of his mo-
ton.
Attorney Harmon then made mo-
ton for continuance of four weeks
stating that he was not prepared to go
on. This was overruled after some
discussion. Examination of talesmen
was then commenced.
