opinion in court today in replying to
| the presentment submitted to him by
the grand jury which is investigating
some of the phases of the insurance
business which were developed by the
Legislative investigating committee. He
charged the jury to investigate.
Replying to Judge O'Sullivan, Dis
trict Attorney Jerome reiterated his
opinion that the acts Of the iilyestigat-
ed insurance officials did not consti-
tute larceny and told the court that
II he maintained his contrary opinion
then It was up to the grand jury to seek
indictments for larceny against Geo.
w. Perkins, former vice president Of

New York, March 23.-Fear of sub

VICTIM OF :.
CIRCUMSTANCE
Able PLEA IN DEFENSE s..
OF ALLEGED MURDERER
Claim Is Made That lyens Was E1ypno- !
tized When He Made His Confessions
to Terrible Crime Charge Against
Police official. ..., % =

Chicago, March 23.-2The case of Rich
ard G. Ivens, charged with the murdel
of Mrs. Bessie Hollister, is expected
to go to the jury late today. ....:
Attorney. Foltz opened for the defense
He said the good and evil effects oi
hypnotism had been clearly established
and he pointed Eout the fact that Assist
ant Chief Of, Police Scheuttler had adj
t11itted ON the witness stand that he was
a student Of hypnotism. In this connec-
ton the lawyer emphasized the fact that
nobody had been enabled to secure a
statement from Ivens until Scheuttler
had taken the defendant into a room
alone with himself. Foltz declared that
Ivens is a victim of the most remarkable
series of circumstances that an innocent
person has ever confronted. @
4 lyens'. attempt to repudiate his con-
fession to the Hollster murder is about
as feasible as an effort, to unite the moose
about his neck if he were standing
,arld rilanacled waiting for
the drop to fall, according to Prosecutor
Olson, who. made his address. to the
jury. II 81
The condition Of Mrs. HOLSTERS re-
mains, as described by medical men, so
strongly confirms the truth Of the details
which Ivens gave to the police that the
young mans repudiatiofi of his written
acknowledgement of the crime hardly
can be given second though" !" the prose-
cutor declared II would have been
for. any one other than the
murderer himself TO give such an ac-s
curate description Of the manner in
which Mrs. HOLSTER met her death.
The confession, which Ivens now says
he might have made while his mind was
BANKED BY the broW=beating tactics of
the police, fits too closely with the mute
evidence given by tlle body to permit Of
his escaping the gallows.
is plain to any mind that the
beautiful chorister was dragged from the
public street before she was placed In
that yard inclosure near the Ivens home
Her hat lay at her feet and the collar
ette which she wore when she left her
home that morning was about her neck
But i was the horrible evidence of the
body itself which dovetails SO conclusive
ly with the minute details Of the story
which lyens gave to the authorities at
The North Halsted Street Police station

dead and missing are foreigners. The
work Of rescue is Poing on slowly on
account OF fears about gas in the shaft.
Eleven bodies had been recovered at
noon today, ana ten men are still miss
ing. Those not yet accounted for are
thought ITO be dead in the mine. It
is impossible to give all the names OF
the dead, but they are known TO be
mostly foreigners as very few Ameri-
cans were employed in the mine The
bodies. recovered were torn and nlang-
led and in many cases burned from
head to foot, making the work Of iden-
tifcation hard. From the fierce force
Of the explosion as evidenced BY the
ruin wrought in the shaft, there Is lit
tie hope that the missing ten men es-
capped with their lives.
