wood lake, last July, when Mrs. Rosa
Menschik Szabo lost her life testified for
the state. today, at the trial of Burton
w Gibson, the New York lawyer accus-
ed of numbering Mrs. Szabo. his client.
This witness, Mrs. Emma Benninger of
Paterson, n. j., who appeared in the
case. today. for the first time. trained her
opera glasses ON Gibson as he was
struggling in the water half a mile or
less off shore and saw the tragedy in
part through the lenses.
IT heard Mr.. Gibson shout" Mrs Ben
ninger said land from my porch where
/ was sitting l could make out that he
was overheard. The boat was drifting
slowly, right side up. l could see him
swimming towards it I ran to the hall
and got my opera glasses and looked at
him through them.
when I got them adjusted few Sec
onds later, he had reached the boat and
was clinging to it. The boat had been
turned over during the time it took me
to get the glasses.

ney Rogers.
He was. could see it quite plainly.
I saw the motor boat Torpedo coming
towards him and a moment later he ev-
identity saw it, too, for he ceased shout
ing"
Sometime between the moment Mrs.
Benninger lowered her glasses and the
arrival of the Torpedo boat at the scene
of the tragedy, 500 feet distant, accord
ing to the testimony, Gibson loosed the
shirt of his bathing suit. William Kemp.
boatanan of the Torpedo and the next
witness, testified that when he rescued
Gibson from the water the latter wore
no shirt.
The defence has contended that the
shirt was torn from his back by Mrs.

water, and that when he came to the
top the garment had been torn away by
the drowning woman.

The famous Hackett case opened,
Tuesday. in the supreme judicial court
with a swing that fairly took every
body interested in it off their feet and
makes it probable that the case may
not last longer than a week. The Jury
was chosen in less than an hour and
a half and by the use of only 36 of the
6S talesmen. Two members of the jury.
w. J. Lowell of Farmingdale and Fred
A. Shepherd of Gardiner served upon
the jury in the Norton case at the
beginning of the present term.
Mrs. Elsie Hobbs Raymond of Po-
land, the respondent, charged with the
killing of Matte Haellett at Readfield,
Aug. II. 1905, arrived early, Tuesday
morning, at the courthouse with her
husband and little daughter Evelyn
and when arraigned pleaded Not
Guilty" in firm, clear voice. She COM
pressed her lips tightly, however, when
the indictment was read a second time
after the securing of the panel.
The formal opening of the case by
County Attorney Williamson was lis
tened 20 with a great deal of interest
as 1t presented the leading points
which the state will seek to prove
from its evidence, which has been so
carefully guarded from the public since
the grand jury began its investigation,
last April The afternoon was occu-
pied with a view of the scenes at
Readfield connected with the enact
ment of the tragedy of seven years
ago, the places mentioned in the open
ing argument being pointed out to the
jurors by counsel.
Considering the great interest which
has been shown in the revived inves-
tigation of this case the number of
spectators at the morning session of
court was not large, the greater part
of those in the courtroom being wit
nesses and jurors from whom the pam
el was being made up. 1t is expected,
however, that with the taking up of
the evidence in the States case.
Wednesday morning, the number OF
spectators will be greatly increased.
