 Court adjourned for luncheon before the cross-examination began. During fhs testimony the soldiers guard was ihereased. As soon as the court closed the armed sentries marched in and took Fehringer out. Then the court aslre ed the newspaper correspondents not to mention the names of those implicated by the witness who are not on trial.
