DEFENSE SUSTAlNS HEAVY BLOW
WHEN COURT RULES OUT THE
TESTIMONY OF MRS. JANE
HEDGES, WHO TESTIFIED OF
STATEMENTS ALLEGED TO
HAVE BEEN MADE BY ALBERT
SCHENk.
By Associated Press.

Wheeling. w. Va, Jan. 23.-The emu
of the trial of Mrs. Schenk is now in
sight, arguments having been begun
this afternoon 1t is understood that
the case will be in the hands Of the
Jury not later than Wednesday after
noon.
Apparently the greatest blow yet
sustained by the defense was struck
this morning when the evidence of Mrs.
Jane Hedges was ruled out. She had
testified that Albert Schenk had saio
that ne would leave no stone unturneG
to rid the family of John Schenks wife.
This evidence was ruled out on the
grounds that no overt act, suggestive
of conspiracy. had been attributed to
Albert Schenk or other relatives.
Today Mrs. Schenk showed extreme
agitation when Attorney Maury. for
the state, arrangned her as an unfaith-
posure, and listened intently to the at
torney's speech.
INTEREST INCREASES.
Interest increases as the trial nears
the close. Women did not take rs fnaE
the word of Judge Jordan, delivered
early last week, that they would not be
admitted, and a number tried to enter
the court room today. They were
turned aside and the men behind them
permitted to pass.
When the trial opened, Prosecutor
Handlan moved to strike from the rec
ord the testimony of Jane Hedges, who
declared on the stapd Saturday that
Albert Schenk had told her he would
leave no stone unturned to get Laura
Schenk out of the family"
The prosecutor declared that nothing
whatever had been adduced connecting
Albert Schenk with such a conspiracy.
Mr.. Handlan also moved to strike out
the testimony Of DR. Benjamin Nor
rison, who said DR.. J. w. Myers, an
