At yesterdays conference Mr.. Ross said
that he was able to learn little beyond what
has already been made public by the fam

There Is little likelihood that smith will
be prosecuted for perjury, as Justice Crane
ias decided that Clerk Scully. who issues
the marriage licenses, was not empowered
10 administer oaths. hence Smiths state
ment that he had not been married before
was not perjury. However, Mr. Ross says
that the same evidence would enable him
10 prosecute the artist FOR bigamy.
