Edward J. Newell. the lawyer ihdlctcn
ON Tuesday in the Sipp case, Will be ar
Yaigned for pleading before justice Goli
on Monday. Mr. Whitman received IN
formation yesterday that heavy pressure
vas beine brought TO bear upon Newell.
ho,b nv other lawyers Who have been
connected with the same trail Of police
vice relations and by two mSh pc

that Newell sit tight, refuse absolutely TO
hclp Whitman i'm any way, and hght MS
case TO the last ditch.
II IS understood that Newells lawyers
are urging upon him the wisdom OF an
opposite course. but that Newelrs own IN

Newell Still Hesitates.
Inst where these conflicting currents

now. ~ it is taken for granted by those
who want Newell TO fight Whitman that
the District Attorney Will go the limit
against him unless he agrees 10 tell what

ton of another and far more serious In
die,ment against Newell to an exposure,
on discrimination, of Newelrs past
record.
These possibilities are naturally not
worrying Newells police and .awyer
friends" Their interest is not, in getting
Newell out of trouble. but solely In keep

but the District Attorney appears to be
confident that Newell Will be brought TO
