Anna Gould, appeared in the Paris
criminal court today to answer to a
charge of assault preferred by his cous-
in. Prince Helie de Sagan. The lat
ter asks one franc as damages. Court
Jean de Castelane, brother of Boli
who is alleged to have participated in
the assault on the prince is not named
In the suit
Count Boni will urge in defense that
the prince gravely insulted him in
church and that as De Sagan is not

match for tn district attorney.
Jerome spent nearly the entire NOR
ming reading the records of the last
trial. He stood squarely facing the
witness with the record book held in
both hands and constantly consulted
1t. Mrs. Thaw asked several times to
see the book herself. Once she said,
ar ba to, To
understanding, your honor. and Mr..
Jerome ought to read further"
Mrs Thaw fenced continually with
Mr. jerome, telling him once that he
was giving wrong impression by
