| compel him to answer questions peril
| nent to the case embraced within and
connected with and embraced within the
questions propounded at the taking of
the said deposition, which he refused to
answer.
| He has also given notice of motion for
an order authorizing and permitting him
to inspect and copy documents in the
possession and under control of the de-
| PENDANTS, as follows:
| Reports by Karl J. Won Arnold to de-
PENDANTS, relating to plaintiff, which re-
ports purport to contain statements
showing plaintiff to be connected with
an alleged newspaper to be started in

| of which was to protect Won Arnold in
| certain purported concert hall and

| Certain reports of one H T. Schuman
made to defendants containing the same
matters.
| Certain reports made by one D. j.

defendants, wherein the plaintiff is pur-

| A wellknown citizen whose duties
take him daily into contact with all

of the miseries of life, yesterday said
that he now noticed a distinct and very

them vice. He thinks that with the

the worst order Of cases will cease al

| they will never wholly cease among
certain classes of people:
