Until DT. CnRncellors physical condi-

with the exception Of this statement,
which IS expected 20 be sensational and
the feature of the entire trial.
IT is possible that the case cannot pro-
coed In some days. and st the concIu-
siion OF the hearing yesterday the oppos-
ine attorneys were told to consult with
DR.. CnancellOr's physician and fx a
date for its continuance.
The efforts OF the defense yesterday
We're devoted to showing that DR.. Chan
cellOr was held In esteem by the teach
ing body, and was regarded as efficient,
and man OF character and ability. Mr.
Fulton varied the BameneSs OF the pro
ceedings, however. by calling to the
stand Assistant Superintendent p. NJ.
Hughes. whom he said he introduced as
a hostile witness
Insists He Is Hostile.
Mr.. Mcnamara objected to this char
RcteIization, but Mr.. Fulton insisted
that he wanted to show in the record
that the Assistant superintendent was
hostile, and had been hostile during the
entire trial Ho asked Mr.. Hughes Il st
were not true that ne had taken a seat
directly behind MIR. McNamara during
the hearing and prompted the attorney
in asking questions and conducting the
examination. Mr.. Hughes replied that
1t was, but that he had been asked TO
do 50 by the boards attorney.
Mr.. Hughes was asked further II he
had not opposed the Superintendent all
along, II ne had visited tne Superin-
tendent at his home. and similar Ques-
tiOns TO show friendly or unfriendly re-
lattOns. Mr.. McNamara designated Mr..
EultOn's line OF remarks as 'unWar-
ranJable either in law or common de-
cency." and this brought from Captain
Oyster a statement that Mr.. Fulton was
evidently conducting the examination
6or effect as "a play to the gallery
Mr.. Fulton addressed the chair quite
fervently at this juncture, and said thai
the char, in accusing MIN of playing
TO the gallery was charging something
untrue" Captain Oyster shut of de
bate by ordering that the examination
