MRS. GRAHAM FAILS TO APPEAR
State Attempts to Show caruso Has
Habit Of Insulting Ladies-Defense
Charge. coIlusion Of Police-court
Reserves Deoision-Bis Crowd at
the Hearing.

New York, Nov. 23.-Every seat In
the Yorkville police court was occu-
pied today when court opened for
hearing the charge of annoying women
in Central Park against Caruso, the
operate tenor. Hannah Graham, the
complaining witness, was not present,
Deputy Police Commissioner Mathot
stating she had left the jurisdiction OF
the court and could not be produced
today. Carusos counsel intimated
there was no such woman as Mrs.
Graham, unless, she was confederate
of Police OFFICER Cain, who arrested
Caruso. Caruso was called to the
stand and questioned by Mathot.
do you recall being at a reception
in the house in Fifth avenue in the
vicinity of Thirty-sixth street Sunday
afternoon preceding Thanksgiving last
year; that as you We're leaving, a
guest invited you to step into her auto
and conducted you to your hotel, and
while on the way being charged by the
lady with having attempted to take
certain liberties with her? AS the au-
tomobile was opposite the Union
League Club did it not stop and did
you not leave the automobile because
You were charged by the lady with at
tempting to take liberties with her,
and was not mounted policeman at
the door of the cab, and did he not fail
to arrest you only on refusal of the
woman to make complaint"
Judge Dittenhoefer objected to the
questions and the court sustained him.
y When the bries cross-examination Of
fCaruso was concluded, Dittenhoefer
informed the court he had no more
witnesses to produce.
Dittenhoefer, in opening the argu-
ment for the defense, declared it was
apparent the case against Caruso was
entirely a police-made case. The whole
case depended upon word Of Hanna
Graham, and they had failed to pro-
duce her in court to give that word.
Commissioner Mathot in his argu-
ment, declared Caruso was a moral
pervert, who should be kept out Of
decent society. Mathot said the reason
why Hannah Graham had not appear
ed in court was she feared to face the
crowd of perverts, such as commonly
attend such hearings, and such a
crowd as was then present. The spec
tators hissed Mathot at this remark.
Magistrate Baker reserved his decision.
Counsel for Caruso, in closing the
argument, which consumed nearly an
hour, declared Caruso was the victim
of a police conspiracy, and appealed to
the court not to blast great career
upon such fiimsy evidence as had been
produced against the singer. Speaking
for the prosecution, Deputy Police
Commissioner Mathot characterized
Caruso as a man destitute of moral
sense Mathot said he was not in court
in the interest of the police depart
ment, nor to defend Policeman Cain.
81 am here" said Mathot ION behalf
of women, our wives and daughters, to
ask you if these panders and sexual
perverts shall be permitted to use our
public highways and parks for the
prosecution Of their beastial perform
ances."
Later the commissioner announced
his decision, finding Caruso guilty. He
imposed fine Of SO.
