sequence Of the vote Of non-conhdence
passed by the House on December 1.

quest was delayed several hours this
morning at the request of Attorney
o. N. Hilton, representing the Fed
Grafton.
Coroner Fisher ordered the delay
on the promise of Hilton to produce
witnesses who would positively iden-
tify the man who yelled Fire" Hill
tons announcement caused sensa-
ton and thousands attempted to
force their way into the town hall
where the inquest is being held. e.
Fearing violence if the evidence
promised by Hilton was given, the
coroner transferred the hearing to
his Office. Only witnesses, attorneys
and jurymen will be admitted.
The special grand jury is in, ses-
sion and is said to be considering
evidence as to the shooting and de-
portation of President Meyer. Wit
Qesses are taken before the grand
jury secretly and their identity
learned.
Yesterday eight witnesses testified
that the man who shouted Fire" and
started the panic Christmas eve wore
the button of the Citizens Alliance.
Other witnesses said the cry came
from within the hall, and a number
Of them said they saw no button.
Mrs. Theresa Czabo, Charles Oh
sen and Hilda Forster were positive
they saw man wearing an Alliance
button come to the door, wave his
hands and shout Fire -
