1t was then that Magistrate Baker ruled
out the evidence in regard to the alleged
incident in the Metropolitan Opera House,
and refused to ALLOW the second woman to
be brought in.
The Deputy Commissioner kept at the
tenor almost half an hour in regard to what
happened in the monkey house on November
10, but he wasn't able to shake the story
hich Caruso told on Wednesday. Judge
Dittenhoefer objected TO having the witness
cell what was in his mind in regard TO the
'so-cslled Mrs. Graham, who is charged by
Caruso with making eyes at him The oo-
election was sustained. Caruso couldn't
describe her-what she wore, or what her

Dittenhoefer, and the Deputy Commissioner
characterize that as a chestnut.
AHow, asked the police lawyer OF Caruso,
Edo you recall the woman's ogiing You 40
distinctly when you can't describe herr"
An objection to this question also was
Sustained. All Caruso could say was that
he knew the woman looked at him and
ATTRACTED his attention.
Caruso testified that he was married ten

Deputy Commissioner Mathot was inclined
20 p~ooh-pooh the idea Of bringing in the
record Of DanziGer.
SOh," said Dittenhoefer, referring to
the witness, jeremiah Mccarthy, who
oorroborated on Wednesday some OF the
things that Policeman Cain says he said in
the monkey house. You got your American

Danziger dwelt on the fact that he W al
connected at one time with the Republican
National committee, and he was inclined
TO claim considerable credit Tor Roose-
velt's election. He testified that he had
started to walk along the park road from
the Fifth avenue entrance at Sixty-thrd
street, at about 4:30 O'Clock on the after
noon OF November 10, when ne noticed
Caruso entering the zoo. He was well
acquainted with the tenor, having lived
in the same hotel with him in London,
and would, he said. know him II he saw him
n long way OF. As il was, Caruso. when
he entered the monkey house, was only
n short distance from the park roadway,
and Danziger went back to the entrance
which led down into the ZOO. He didn't do
this particularly for the purpose Of speak
ing to Caruso. The idea simply occurred
to him when he saw the tenor go down
to look at the animals TO do a little sight
seeing himself.
saw Caruso standing in a small group Of
people looking intently at a monkey cage.
There were some women in the group.
and Carlso was standing some little dis
tance from them.
did you see him standing against any
women?" asked Judge DittenhOefer.
NO" was the witnesses reply.
And you had him in sight all the time
you were in the monkey house!'
yes"
The witness testified that Caruso could
not have been in the monkey house more
than two or three minutes before he entered

Caruso left. DAM iger said that he would
have spoken to Caruso, but he thought
IL might be impertinent. He was under
the impression when he first entered the
house that Caruso was a member OF the
party which was standing before the
monkey cage, and that is the reason he
did not go up TO him.
Danziger testified that he was positive
that Caruso had not annoyed any women
in the manner described while he was in
the monkey house. That. he said, would
have been impossible without his seeing il.
He didn't see Caruso walk from one woman
10 another or from one group TO another.
Mr.. Danziger became interested in two
black monkeys and while he was looking
at them Caruso started to leave. But
Danziger saw him when he turned away
from the group at the cage, and the tenor,
he said, did not rub up against any women
or annoy them. On the contrary he had
q look Of disgust on his face. Danziger
followed a few minutes later, but the tenor
was nOJ biButs
Danizger was very impressive some
times. On one occasion he declared with
uhlifted hand;
Il stand here on my oath and honor and
I say that IL was q physical i~mpossibility
for a man to do what they said Caruso
did In the monkey house without my seeing
it,
This is why Mr.. Danziger volunteered
to testify:
-Caruso is the greatest tenor that ever
lived. He Is a benefactor to mankind and
don't want to see him ~lamPooned. That
n why I have come forward"
Il was while Danziger was on the witness
stand that Deputy Commissioner Mathot
received a call on the telephone from Police
Headquarters.
'Don't bring in any more women re-
marked Judge D~ittenhoefer as the police
official left the room. It was then that the
Deputy Commissioners got the information
on which he based his application for an
adjournment toward tho close OF the hear
ing.
Richard Barthelemy, a professor of music
and Caruso's tutor, testified to the time at
which the tenor left his ana rtmenta on the
