STAHL CHANGES HIS PLEA
Substitutes Three In Abatement For
That of Not Guilty

Gustav Stahl, the German reserv-
list who swore at New York that
he saw four guns mounted aboard the
Lusitania the day before she sailed
on her last voyage, withdrew his plea
of not guilty to the indictment charg-
ing him with perjury and substituted
three pleas in abatement.
The alleged illegal presence of a
stenographer in the grand jury room
when he testified, the failure of the
government to swear an interpreter
as such, but only as witnesses, and
a question as to the proper qualiti
cations of one of the grand jurymen
were the technical points embraced
in the new pleas.
