from Richesons rooms The matter was
brought informally before Judge Sander
son at the conference to-day attended
by Burns, in employ Of the defense, and

rule on it.

nell and Mrs. W. II. Mclean, mother

before she died; Miss Juliet c. Patter-
son, superintendent Of the Young Wom-
ems Christian association building; Miss
