COURT INTERPRETERS.

London, May 20.--When the Titanic
resumed today. Lord
Mersey presiding. Sir Cosmo Dun Cor
don was subjected to a bitterly hos
tile examination. The armory was
crowded and many fashionably dress
ed women were present.
Did you promise the. crew five
pounds before or after the lifeboat
went back to the rescue?" asked the
attorney general, Sir Rufus Isacs.
Il never knew the boat went back, .
was the reply.
An attorney appearing on behalf of
Irish third-class passengers asked
Gordon II he had suggested that the
boat go back. and receiving a negative
reply, asked;
you saved your lives and left 9TH
ers to CROWN"
Lord Mersey said:
. ''The position of the witness is bad
enough. Do you think it fair to ask
such a question:"
This brought a round of applause
from the women i'm the gallery. which
was repeated time after time without
reproof from the Judge.
Dum Gordon, who lost his temper,
was finally relieved of the unfriendly
cross examination. He then went over
the story of incidents which is now
familiar.

for the murder of Avis Linnell, has
become reconciled TO his fate and
courageously faces the future.

Chicago, although in the city today, de-
clared he would not go to the prison,

the remains.
Il have made my peace with God:
am resigned TO my fate. wish TO go

These words. spoken by Richeson Ia
the Rev. Herbert II. Johnson, his splr-
itual adviser, expressed the mental
condition of the condemned man.
Reclining on a cot in his death cell.
Richeson talked long and earnestly
with Mr.. Johnson and the prison chap
