TRIAL OF CAPTAIN DUKE
BEGUN BY COMMISSION

The trial of Captain of Police Thomas
F. Duke charged with neglect of duty
by the late chief of police in regard
to the searching of Morris Haas. the
man who attempted to assassinate
Francis J. Heney. was begun before the
board of police commissioners last
night.
Attorney Theodore Roche. who ap-
peared for Duke, interpoSed several OBJ
jections to the charges to the effect
that the commissioners had no juris-
diction in the case and that the charges
failed to state any violation of the
rules of the police department. The
commissioners, three of them, overruled
the objections and the trial was ordered
to proceed.
The commissioners attempted to in
troduce the entire transcript of the
testimony of the coroners inquest but
an objection by Roche was sustained
Policeman Frank Robl was the only
witness to be called last night. His
testimony was practically the same as
that given at the inquest.
The hearing was adjourned until Sat-
urday morning at o'clock on account
of the late hour The charges of
Herbert Allen and S. Ingraham against
Captain of Detectives Kelly were dis
charged with Kelly, was found guilty
and sentenced to a reprimand The

JURY HEARD ABOUT
HAAS SUICIDE AND
DROWNING OF BIGGY

In spite of the vigilance of the dep
uty sheriffs to keep from the minds of
the Jurors everything bearing even in
the remotest way on the case, news of
the suicide of Haas and of the drowning
of Chief Biggy accidentally came to
their attention.
Juryman Bond threw open his win
dow in the st. Francis hotel the morn
ing after Haas shot himself in the
county Jail and heard two women
guests on the floor below talking across
the court from one window to the
other. Their conversation ranged
about the shooting of Heney and the
suicide of Haas. Judge Lawlor later
notified the jury officially of these
events.
AS the jury was one day passing on
its way from the hotel to the court
room one Of the jurors saw woman
reading a newspaper in a restaurant
Across the top of the sheet in large
black type was the announcement
Chief Biggy Drowned"
This news was communicated from
one juror to the other. The twelve
men locked up in the hotel found
pleasant diversion playing billiards and
pool. Casino was INDUCED in also,
usually for five cents a game. Two
deputy sheriffs stayed with the Jury at
all times, and when some of them went
to the theater another sheriff was sent
to the hotel to keep those staying with
in doors company They occupied eight
rooms on the tenth floor of the St
Francis, in some of which rooms two
jurors slept, single beds being pro-
vided. During the night the doors of
the connecting rooms were kept open
and the suite resembled a large DOR
mitory.

CASTRO IN FRANCE
WITH NO APOLOGY
Venezuelan President Allowed
to Land on Understanding
He Wishes to Confer
Guards Surround Hotel Where
He Stays to Prevent P0ssi-
BILE Assassination

BORDEAUX, Dec. 10.-Cipriano Cas-
tro, president of Venezuela, was al
lowed to land on French soil today
when he arrived from Pauilao, 80
miles from Bordeaux, on the steamship
Guadalupe. 1t was announced that
the president would go to Paris tomor-
row.
1t was believed to be the intention
of the government to exact an apology
from President Castro before per-
hitting him to land. but apparently a
communication received by the gov
ernment from M. Merlo, the French
minister to Peru, who was also a pas
senger on the Guadalupe, to the ef-
range a settlement of the difficulties
between the two countries brought
about change in the plans.
This evening an agent of M.
Pichon, the foreign minister, informed
President Castro that he would be well
coined as a private citizen and that as
a chief of state he would be given
every protection during his sojourn in
France. Upon Castros arrival in Paris
he will send a representative to M.
Pichon to convey his thanks. This may
furnish the desired opening for nego-
tiations with France.
The hotel where the president is
staying is under close guard. as some
fears were entertained for his safety
owing to the presence of two men, one
a Syrian and the other an Egyptian
These men embarked at Trinidad,
where President Castro is said to have
received threatening letters from the
brother of general he had ordered
shot at Caracas.
president Castro received a tele-
gram from King Alfonso thanking him
for salutations which he sent from San
tander, and conveying the kings best
wishes for the presidents health and
the prosperity of Venezuela.
