ATTACKS CONDUCT
OF CRANE. JURY
Defense in Alleged Bucket Shop
Case Appeals to Judge
Manden

When the prosecution rested in the
case OF William r. Cook, OF the brok-
erage firm OF @. Il. Cook & Co., In
dicted by the Wayne county grand
jury on a charge OF keeping bucket
shop, and on trial before Judge Con-
molly. the defense sprang surprise,
Monday morning.
Attorney Brown argued, first, that
the law under which the indictment
was brought Is unconstitutional. The
court upheld the statute. He then
made the point that the grand jury
proceedings were defective, and pro-
duced an affldayit TO show that George
j. Burmeister, the employee Of the
Chicago Board of Trade who is the
states star witness against Cook, was
in the grand jury room throughout the
taking OF testimony In the matter.
Judge Connolly held that the Cir
cult. court is the Judge OF the pro-
ceedings OF its grand jury, rather than
the recorders court, and directed that
the matter be carried before Judge
Mandell, Monday afternoon, and that
the defense be ready to proceed In
recorders court, Tuesday morning.

Mexicans Lay Guns
To Burn Thef, Deaa

MEXICO CITY. Feb 17-Censored)
The earliest possible conclusion OF
the bloody war between President
Madero's forces and those of General
Diaz was hoped for by both sides to-
day. Madero, believing he could wipe
out Dlaz's force, anxiously awaited
formal assurance from President Taft
that the United States will not inter-
vene. Diaz was hoping, apparently
without reason, that Ambassador VIII
son would recognize him and his fol-
lowers as forming the real govern
iment OF Mexico.
Dead bodies OF additional soldiers
and citizens this morning Uttered the
streets about the arsenal, and the
national palace, where hundreds had
been burned yesterday. TO prevent
the spread OF disease. The burning
of the bodies took place during the
armistice which was declared by both
armies at 2 o'clock. Sunday morning.
Peace was agreed upon for. "a hours.
There was no firing for little more
than nine hours.
Diaz had not been In favor of the
armistice, and he agreed to 1t only
after being pressed by the ambassa-
doris and ministers OF the foreign
powers. Diaz believed II he went on
with his assault upon the palace he
could win.
General Huerta. in command OF the
federal troops, was not pleased with
the agreement to an armistlce. Presi-
dent Madero ordered him to agree to
II. The president had sent a plea to
President Taft. requesting that the
United States keep hands off, and
Ambassador Wilson,, the American
representative, was one OF the most
insistent of all the foreign diplomats
who demanded the armistice.
Before noon the truce was broken.
Scattered shots broke the calm and
two hours later the battle was on
again, with renewed herceness.
The guns OF the rebels were sweep
ing the San Juan plaza, south OF the
alameda, where the federals had NOV
ed part OF their forces during the few
hours rest. Rebels and federals
fought with bayonets In the narrow
streets between the market and the
arsenal. No one attempted to esti-
mate the number Of dead In yester-
days fighting.
Americans and other foreigners
were safer today than at any time
since the battles began. one week ago
Sunday. The battle zone and the ter
ritory Immediately surrounding 1t
was cleared OF residents during yes
terday's armistlce. Food supplies
were replenished while the two
armies rested. Many foreigners en-
tered the battle zone during the truce
and obtained valuables which had
been left In their hasty flight a week
ago. Automobiles. piled high with
furniture and bed clothes, kept up
continual procession to the outskirts
OF the city, while the armistice lasted.
Ambassador Wilson, and the Ger
man minister were assured by Presi-
dent Madcro that he would aid In the
establishment OF free zone In the
center OF the city. where food could
be distributed to the poor. Ambassa-
dor Wilson requested Madero to or
ganize his attack on the arsenal so
that the return fire would not endan-
ger the residential quarter of the city.
