ABRAHAM HUMMEu
BITTERLY ARRAIGNED
Rand Says Morse Dodge Scan
dal Was Corspi1 acy.
GOODS DELIVERED AND PAID FOR
Project Was Bold and Aimed at Laws
of State, and Its Object of Attack
Was Institution of Marriage and Ad-
ministration of Justice.

New York, Dec. 16.-The prosecution
| opened its case in the trial of Abraham
II. Hummel, the lawyer charged witt
conspiracy in the celebrated Dodge
Morse divorce case today Assistant
District Attorney Rand, in opening
| the case, said
In this case the act of conspiracy
as described in law was committed
and the goods were delivered and pait
| for.
This particular project was a very
| bold one. 1t was aimed not only al
the law of the state, but its project o1
attack was nothing less than the insti
ution of marriage and administration
of justice.
Captain James S. Morse, of the city
of Boston, a ship owner, had heard
Mrs. Morse was a divorced woman
He started to work to see if he could
not break up the marriage He went
to the office of Hummel, this defend
| ant, and a few days later HummeI
telegraphed to Morse in Boston that he
mad found such clear traces of fraud
In the proceedings that ne would take
the matter up If Mr.. Morse would pay
him $4,000. Captain Morse paid
Hummel the $4,000 to upset his neph
ew's marriage
In January, 1904, the grand Jury
presented charge of perjury against
Dodge. On the same day Dodge was
at the St Charles notel New Orleans
on his way to Mexico. He knew about
II before tne district attorney. Why
! should Hummel want to get Dodge
across the border? But Dodge was
pulled off the train in Texas Hum
mel teIepnoned to Captain Morse:
They have got our man; send us
money
There was a constant demand by
Hummel from Captain Morse and not
less than $4,000 was paid by him"
The first witness was Abraham H
Kaffenburgh, a member of HummePs
law firm. He was asked whether he
had employed counsel in Texas to pre-
vent the extradition of Charles F
Dodge and also whether under Hum
mePs instruction he attempted to keer
Dodge in perpetual state of intoxica
ton, but TO tnis and to other questions
he replied:
Il decline to answer on the GROUND
that it might degrade and incriminate
me-"
He was excused after a short ques
| tioning
