 Special permits were secretly issued by the governors of states, across which the train passed and all con nected with the deportation breathed easier when word was received here today that Welgren was safely aboard a liner d1e,sto leave for Sweden in few hours.

presence also of States Attorney AL ling and Assistant City Attorney Bree was made by reason of an indictment offered and for this reason ought to be excluded City Attorney Ieradi con tended there were no inducements; {; that Nixon voluntarily confessed to having struck man that night. MT. Fitzgerald claimed that Nixon's mind was blank and the continual refer ence made to the assault by his as- sociates led him to save an impres- sion that he might have committed the act and Captain Donnelly's charges had given him the idea that he might have been responsible.
 MT. Ieradi said that assertions of hallucinations were absurd.
 After Nixon had concluded his tes- timony, MT. Fitzgerald argued that the admissions of Nixon testified to by Donnelly, filling and Bree ought to be stricken from the record. Judge O'Meara declined to do this and argu- ments were begun by counsel.
 Other witnesses closing the case were Dr. Verdi, who said that any man hit with an iron bolt in the hands of 8 sturdy lad like Nixon would havs cracked the skull and not merely have cut the scalp; three students who saw Nixon at 2.15 8. m., in Hillhouse av- enue, which is some distance from the scene of-the assault. one of them tiiTOWlnS OOWh HIS Keys so Nl8Ou could get into the house; Professor Marvin, who brought Nixon to Don nelly's office and Captain Dunn, who gave the record of the ambulance call as 2.15. Professor Marvin said he did not make an inquiry into the assault case. On April he was asked over the telephone to request Nixon to come to his office. Professor Mar win said that Donnelly had said that he had evidence in the Everit as- sault case, and that he desired to straighten it out without publicity or notoriety. For this reason he sad Nixon go there. Afterwards, Don- nelly said that Nixon had confessed. MT. Marvin said he told Nixon he was still his friend.
 Throughout the trial today the court room was jammed with students, scores sitting cross-iegged on the floor. At one time students in slickers stood four deep around one side of the room, the prisoners pen was filled and officers had to hold the doors to stop the crush from the cor riders.
 Mir. and Mrs. Nixon again we're in court both being much affected by the recital of events of the night in question, referred to by counsel on each side huniliating and depIor- able" MT. Fitzgerald in the course of his argument said he hoped it would be a lesson to other young men who were present. Young Nixon was a frank witness and withstood a sharp cross examination without faltering

Sulphur Is The
 Only Thing For
 Itching Eczema
USE LIKE COLD CREAM TO SUB. DUE IRRITATION AND CLEAR
 THE SKIN.

In the treatment of the various forms of disiguring, itching and burning Eczema such as Acne. Ringworm, Salt Rhetm, there is nothing known that can take the place of bold-sulphur cream.
 It effects such prompt relief, even in the aggravated Eczema, that it is a never ending source of anazement to physicians.
 For years bold sulphur has occupied a secure position in the treatment of cutaneous eruptions by reason of it's cooling, parasite destroying properties. BoId-sulphur is not only parasiticidal but antipru1itic and antiseptic, there fore invaluable in overcoming irritable and fnfiammatory affections of the skin. While not always establishing a permanent cure. yet in every instance it instantly stops the agonixing ttch- ing: subdues the irritation and heals the unframed, raw skin right up and it is often years later before any Eczema eruption again appears.
 Those troubled should obtain from any good pharmacist an ounce of bold . sulphur cream and apply it directly upon the abrasion like an ordinary cold cream. It isn't unpleasant and tho prompt relief afforded is very well

Everit, chief en- z1neer of a telephone company, on October 21 last Judge O,Meara im- poeed a fine of $200 and costs. Nix ori's counsel filed notice of appeal to the common. plears court and bonds were fixed at $500.
 Young Nixon went on the stand this Afternoon in his own behalf. He said his mind was blank as to what had occurred on the might in, question be- other students.
 Nixon said that the alleged con- fession made to Captain Donnelly to the effect that he might have struck MT. Everit was in no sense con- fession; that he had told Captain Don- that he had no recollections of the nigl1t in question and that to asser- Hons that he did make the assault he had replied that he could not deny
 Nfxon declared that he went from his rooms in The Colony, a Sheffield Scientific School fraternity house, with classmates, to places downtown; that he began drinking and his condition until he woke up in bed next morn ing in his room, with his clothes on, was such that he had practically no recollection of his acts after attend ing the theatre and drinking from 8 bottle while on the Central Green.

Then Captain Donnelly had tolc him that he had evidence against him concerning the Everit assault case. Nixon said that Donnelly told him that he committed the assault using a bolt which he exhibited, and that he had done it because the man assaulted had refused him a match. Nixon said that he replied that he could not deny what Donnelly said as he had no recollections of what he did or where he went that night. He did declare that he could not un- derstand how he could have struck any man.
 MT. Fitzgerald tried to show that any statement made in Donnelly's s oflce on the night of April 1st in the
