tion of Mrs. Mary Sanderson in the
noisonino case was continued Friday
before Justice Lewis, with Marie hop-
ertson. the servant girl. on the STAND
for cross-eXamination. every enort pe-
ino made to draw self-detrimental
testimony upon which to impeach her.
The accused woman seems hopeful, and
insists she will be acquitted OF the
crime. Among other things Miss Rob
ertson admitted was the fact OF having
been arrested for grand larceny nav
ing lied TO the clergyman who married
her. giving her age several years Out

eral places for various reasons ana
having lived with Fred Wesley. AT

admit that She stole 81 600 from Mrs.
Salter and TO make other admissions
so that she may be impeached, which

Il. Prescott, at Ann Arbor, will form
an interesting exhibit in the trial for

no one here now who has any idea,
since Prof. Prescott has given testl-
mony strongly corroborative of that
formerly adduced by the state, that the
woman will be released after the pre-
liminary hearing.
The main point made in the test'
mony of the chemist. who has taught
students at the University of Michigan
since the close of the war, was that he
had examined. Visually and by chem
ical processes. certain human remains
of identity unknown to him, but de
livered into his hands by Sheriff VII

that he had found therein six particles
of hard foreign substance, which on be

that one Of these particles was tounC
in the stomach and five in the intes

rounded globules formed by heating
the particles to determine the point o
fusibility. and had them in secur
place from which he could produce
them and swear 10 their identity. ii
