She was in love, she szid, with
a man out in the state, who re-
ciprocated her attachment.
They had been lovers since he
camehere to see her, and he still
cared for her, but since he had
gone away she had never received
letter. from him.
Bypnotist prevented his Writing.
Her mail was being interfered
with, and by hypnotist! This
hypnotist, whom she names as a
Mrs. Nick of this city, she said:
had hypnotized her sweetheart so
that, although he was nearly
frantic with desire to write to her,
the spell prevented his putting
his sentiment on paper. He. had
tried time and time again, she
knew, but the for bidding hand of
the conj1rer had always been
raised against him.
Mr.. Henning tried to tell her
that the government could not
undertake the defense, and sug-
gested that she get another
hypnotist and have him try a
counter spell. She interrupted
him.
Tried Another Hypnotist to Stop It.
II have already done that" she
insisted. Gwen now he is work,
ing, but his efforts have been Of
no avail. The only wayis to have
the government arrest her for
interfering with the mails.
Mr.. Henning again brauely in
formed her that the government
could do nothing in a case like
that, stating that it would be
necessary to prove the physical
fact of retaining the letters De
fore a prosecution could be un-
derta&en, but still she could not
see it that way.
She insisted that there was a
wholesale effort tokeepher letter.
The spell, she said, extended
not only to her sweetheart, but
also to the postmaster of the city
where he lived, and even to past
mastor Stillman, who, she said,
could not deliver the letters even
if they did come here:
Finally Henning stated that he
could do nothing, and that if any
prosecution were to be taken up
it would have to be upon the ac-
tual physical detention of mail,
and that the case would have to
be laid before Postofice Inspec-
tor Ralph Bird.

the police force is corrupt, when l see
that corruption, l deem that it is

Commissioner Partridge overruled
Judge Olcott's objection and an excep-
