QUESTIONS V0LL|ED
AT REV. BARNHISEL

With quick repartee and ready
use OF words that n trained legal
mind would envy, Arthur IL.
Barnhisel, former pastor Of the
First Presbyterian church, today
thwarted. parted and lodged
every skillful thrust made Mt him
by Maurice A. Langhorne, attor-
ney for the wife whom Barnbisel
Ia seeking to divorce. -. .s.s.
Time after time IL seemed as
though the former minister were
cornered. Time after time the
sharp thrusts of cross-examina-
ton seemed TO pin hts story down
and show IL as unfounded. And
time after time the minister, with
adrOit words and clever tongue,
slipped from under the singing
questions and came out tri-
umphant.
Today's cross-examinatioh oc-
cupied the entire morning session,
and consisted of a vigorous at
tempt by Mrs. Barnhisels attor-
ney to catch" the minister and
force him to make statements
damaging his direct statements
of yesterday. The examination
followed directly the lines of
Barnhisel's testimony yesterday,
and the minister clung tenacious
ly to his former words, refusing
to allow himself to be cornered
or caught by the peculiarly word
ed catch questions for which
Attorney Langhorne is noted.
The attorney tried to show that
Barnhisel had found a certain let
ter written by Mrs. Barnhisel,
while he was looking for let
ters' preparatory to the divorce
trial.
81 did not look for letters, Z"
declared the minister.
The attorney then turned to
the question of property on Yak
ina avenue, which Barnhisel had
proposed purchasing for a home,
and concerning which he had
written Mrs. Barnhisel when she
was In California.
Barnhisel had written last
spring saying that he had paid
down $50 earnest money on the
land.
why didn't you buy the
land?" asked the attorney.
Because my wife's attitude to-
ward the deal changed, was the
answer.
Her great ambition con-
tinued the minister, was to have
home on Yakima avenue. tried
to crafty her every wish and
intended to get her a home on
that thoroughfare-"
"Now, Mr.. Barnhisel," inter-
rupted Langhorne tersely, 1--WE
don't want any diatribes. Why
didn't You say I'm your letter to
Mrs. Barnhisel that you intended
buying that house for her? You
say You did not buy the lots be-
cause her altitude changed. But
in your letter to her you say you
paid down $50 as a protection.
This wasn't the first time you
had told her or led her to be-
Iieve you were making thousands
In your business, was it?"

warm reply from the witness. 81
