NEAR MOTIVE FOR
RITUAL MURDER"
Witnesses Expected to Show
Today Vera Cheberyak's
Reason For Crime.

KIEFF. Russia, Oct 24.-Witnesses
in the ritual murder" trial today were
expected to establish the motive for the
murder Of the Christian boy, Andrew
Yushinsky, and furnish the final link Of
suspicion connecting Vera Chebaryak
with the murder, of which Mendel Bells,
the Hebrew stands accused.
Hints were made by the student LAX
harin, who assisted Brushkovsky and
Krassovsky in investigating the mur-
der. that Yushinsky was put out of the
way because he knew of the plans of
the Cheberyak gang of thieves to rob
the Cathedral of st. Sophia
The trial was late in starting today
because of the continued indisposition of
BELLS. He suddenly collapsed late yes
terday, his nervous system entirely
shattered by the long ordeal. Though
his name has scarcely been mentioned
for days, and he has all but been lost
sight of, the strain told on him. He in
terrupted the proceedings by falling for
ward on his face and sobbing A ply
sician's care.
The janitor Gaevsky, recalled in re-
buttal. contradicted the testimony OF
Catherine and Xenia Dakonoff, concern
ing pillow cases made by Xenia for the
Cheberyak woman, one of which was
found in the cave with the body. but TIE
women stuck to their stories. Vera said
she had no pillow cases and GaevSky
corroborated her.

picked up at random in an at
tempt to secure bargains. It's
unnecessary to remind you Of
what these homes resemble.
Come here and carry out
your ideas. Get just what you
want to make your home most
attractive and comfortable.
