SUPPORT BLACKMAIL CHARGE
Host os witnesses Testify 60 Evil
ways Of the Boy In the Case
and OF the Mother,


Lawyers for Arthur u. Brandeis are
pushing to have the so-called black
mail case bfought against him by Mrs
Nellie Paul TO trisl. and to that purpose
have been taking and filing depositions
by the Wholesale. IN the district court.
These witnesses give testimony calculated
90 expose the true character OF the plain
tiff and her son. Clarence Risley. The
dispositions had. been removed from the
files by T. L. Brady. attorney for Mrs.
Paul and are only now returned by him
hy order OF the court to the office of the
clerk, Brandeis' attorneys say they
hope to get the case up for trial at the
beginning of the new term OF district
court. which meets February 2.
From the depositions Il is disclosed
that sixteen witnesses testified in De-
troit ana Kansas City that Risley's repu-
tation was extremely bad. and several
insplicate Mrs. Paul IN HIS wrongdong.
The evidence Is that the boy told his
associates that he was his mother5
smart daughter and that he had
rlan to get money from an Omaha man.
That Rlsley was known as The Queen
from Omaha" while playing minor parts
fnent made by the witnesses examined
in that city. Three Witnesses, who tell
Of having knowledge OF his eva WAYS.

there 10 visit her son. and that the three

places of bad reputation. On one Sunday.
Glover iostifics. he went 90 the room oo-
cupied by Mrs. PBul and her son in the
Hotel Tuller and found them both lying
on a bed in negligee attire. Risley ap-
peared demonstrative In his affection for
his mother. Glover asserts. After hts
mother declined 10 20 to New York with
him, Risley called her vile names. tho

The burden OF all the testimony is that
Risloy tried 20 make himself look like a
girl. using powder and paint and dress
ing In a kimono and wearing band
around his head. They testify that he
said he had learned his bad habits
through his mother.

tie is raging between German and
Russian fleets near Aland Island at
the entrance to the Gulf of Finland
The AIand islands lie at the en-
trance to the Gulf of Bothnia, in

sian navy is not likely-to make much
of fight to keep the Germans out of
the Gulf of Bothnia, which lies be-
tween Sweden and Finland, and is of
no great Importance to Russia. The
Gulf of Finland, however, reaches to
within sight of St. Petersburg, and
if the Germans could control it their
warships could shell the cars cap
