LEFEBVRE SAYS PROSECUTOR
WAS SHOWING PICTURE OF
PRISONER IN STRIPES TO
PREJUDICE JURY.

That Deputy Prosecutor Nolte
was secretly showing the jury
during the hearing today picture
of a man in prison garb, purport-
ing to be Meyer Cohen, on trial
for embezzlement of $500 from
the Moose lodge, was the startling
charge made by Attorney Louis
Lefebvre, for Cohen.
1t caused a halt in the Cohen
trial and a hot exchange between
sshe attorneys.
"If this charge is true" Judge
Chapman ruled at noon, ''it is
most reprehensible, and should be
summarily punished. However,
am not satisfied from the evidence
so far produced that the act, If
committed, was done with intent. :"
Lefebvre announced that he
would put Attorneys Dow and
Jackson on the stand during the
afternoon to prove his point.
Judge Card was on the stand
at the time, and Deputy Burmeis-

charge.
The attorney put Cohen and
Mrs. Cohen on the stand who tes-
titled that they saw Nolte doing
this.
"He did it during the first trial,
too," said Mrs. Cohen. This
time we were watching for it,
Startling developments were
predicted at the noon hour.
Judge Card, who was dictator
of the lodge during Cohen's al
legged defalcation occupied the
stand all morning. He told of
Cohen's attempt to settle the
shortage.
One check for $3.50 presented
by Cohen to square accounts be-
fore information was flied against
him was ruled out by Chapman
because no money was deposited
in bank to meet the check till
afterwards.
