PIERCE TRIAL BEGINS
OBJECTION IS RAISED TO THE
 AFFIDAVIT.
Arguments Are In Progress In Court At Austin and May Continue Some Time--Piea of Im-
 munffy Filed.

Austin, Tex, Dec. 1.-After first fl- ing plea of immunity on the grounds that the statute of Limitations had op- erated against the prosecution, attor- neys for H. Clay Pierce. head of the Waters-Pierce oil Company. made a second important moce late today In their efforts to bring to quick termina- ton the trial of their client on a charge of false swearing.
 The second move was the objection raised to the introduction of the affi- davit on which the charge Is based.
 When court adjourned today, the ar guments were still in progress and will likely consume all of tomorrow's ses- sion.
 The objection to the affidavit Is based on the grounds that 1t was acknowl- edged before Miss N. M. Nagel. who on account of her sex, is incompetent to act as a notary public. Judge J. H. Robertson, leading counsel for the de- fense, raised the point, which Is now thought to be of vital import
 The plea of immunity was filed im- mediately after a riea of not guilty had been entered to the Indictment
 The special plea was based on the specific grounds that Mir. Pierce was not a resident of Texas and that while absent from the State, was not a fugi- tive from justice. It was argued that the defendant should be immune for the reason that the statute of Limitations would apply in the case of a citizen of Texas.
 The fact that MT. Pierce had been compelled to testify inyoluntarily in another trust case. brought in Mis- souri, was also advanced as another ground for Ammunitlfs4t beingsclatmed that he was granted constitutional pro lection from prosecution on acts about which he was complied to testify in the former case.
 The court ruled that the state would not be permitted to introduce any mat ter not directly connected with the now questioned affidavit. The state did not take any notice of the special plea as 1t had not heen verified.
