Adams. Insurance broker, 4es Kearny
street. wdlked to the fury box. and
the trial OF Caminetti was resumed
after vacation since Friday.
To give the attorneys more time In
which to prepare bill of exceptions
and motion for ne wtrial. the SEN
tence OF Marry /. Diggs. former state
architect. found guilty on charge
similar to the Caminetti case was
postponed to September 10.
The defendant, Diggs. who was in
tho courtroom when his name was
called. appeared entirely at ease He
seemed entirely confident he would
not know the sentence for a few days
Mt least. Immediately after Judge
Van Fleet announced the continuance
Dfggs picked up his hat and hurried
from the courtroom.
Adams. the injured Juror in the Can't
netti case. was caught In an automo-
bile accident. near San Jose, Satur-
day. He sustained Z badly wrench ed
shoulder and several bones in. HIS
right foot were crushed. Until yes
terday physicians were OF the opin-
ion that Adams would be in no con-
dftions to return to the trial, but
Adams sinsistcd plucs<f1y that he was
not going to delay the case a day.
Marsha Warrington, the companion
Of Digga on the Reno elopement, re-
turned to the witness chair for her
redirect examination by Theodore
Roche.
Judge Van Fleet asked Juror Adams
II he felt efficiently able to go ahead
with tho trial. Adams replied that
he did. Judge Van Fleet congratu-
lated him upon his narrow escape.
Miss Warrington's redirect exam
fnation built up many OF the breaks in
her story that had been made by the
careful cross examination of s. Luke
Howe last Friday.
The redirect tended largely to es-
tablish that Diggs was entirely re-
sponsible for the delicate condition In
which Miss Warrington found herself
. few weeks before leaving Sacra-
mento. This argument the defense
intends to contradict.

regard to the physician.
