Schreiter did not let Brennon know

! Id not let the aldermen know what

The mayor sat In the front part al

spectator, several times smiling al
Schreiter as he fell back on his fav
orite expressions of: I'm not sure

Argument over Confessions.
There was q long, argument be
tween Attorney -McNamara and Spe
wilkins before judge
] Jeffrias finally consented to permit
the FIRST two confessions of Schreite,
TO be- submitted In evidence. Mr.
Wihxins contended that inasmuch al
tN prosecution would be bound By
certain rules OF evidence pertaininl
70 the confessions In the recorder'i
court those rules should obtain In
police court, although he conceded
that the examining Judge had the
legal right to admit the confessions
The court again called attention T.
the fact that as far as the record wen
10 date Detective Brennon was a CO
and that the confessions
OF Schreiter and his statements made
in reply to questions by Brennon ant
others. were important as showing
connection with the affair
as well as Schreiter's.
'"Your position is that there II
something prejudicial to your case
n these confessions, and that IL tn,
Hefon9e can get II INV Nhcy W
not be able to get Il In the recorders
court" said the Judge TO Mr.. VII
kins "I think as matter OF com
mon justice the confessions should g
In" !.
The court, however. refused to ad
Dit the third confession and the de
tense did not insist on it. Attorne'
John 4. Moloney, in fact, objectini
to It's introduction in behalf OF hi
client. Aid. Lynch. The first tw'
confessions and Schreiters TESTIMONY
10 date are ample. the defense be
IIeves. to impeach Schreiter. tn
court allowed only five minutes a
noon for luncheon, stating that n
would proceed until 2 D. m. Whel
court re-convened Schreiter wa
eross-examined on the confessions.
