NINE. STEINHE|L IS
LIKELY TO GO FREE
Public Opinion Is That State
Has Failed to Make Out a
Case of Murder.

Paris, Nov. 13-The state at 2 o'clock
this afternoon rested It's case against
Nine. S%teinheil, accused of the muir
der OF her husband. Adolphe Steinheil,
and her stepmother, Nine. Japy, and
the defense at once began the examina-
ton of it's witnesses.
Popular opinion is that the prosecu-
ton has not made out a case against
the prisoner and that she will be ac-
quilted by the jury.
Just as the prosecution was closing
its evidence the prisoner renewed the
implied threat she had several times
made to breach scandal that would in
volve persons of high standing, but
again, as on the previous occasions,
Judge De Wales invitation to proceed
with her revelations" was met with
silence. Today in a flash of passion she
cried out:
MY past contains interesting chap
ters."
Judge De Wales, unmoved by the in
terruption, promptly and sternly re-
piled:
you are at perfect liberty to say
anything you please"
Nine. Steinheil, however, went no fur
ther, and the case of the government
was declared closed.
The first witness introduced by the
defense was a chauffeur, who testified
that Nine. Steinheil gave him 81 for
trying to locate the blue automobile"
which was reported to have been seen
in front of the Steinheil home in the
Impasse Ronsin at s o'clock on the eve
ming Of the crime. This testimony was
intended to show that Nine. Steinheil
was anxious to discover the identity Of
the assassins.
