HOPE FOR ORPET
JURY TODAY

COURT ROOM, wAUKEGAN, Ill.
May 29.--Crowds braved drizzline
rain today and packed the court
room where VIII Orpet is on trial
for Marion Lambert's death. They
were confident that jury would be
completed today, and that the trial
would be actually under way within
few hours.
States Attorney Dady, 1t was
said, was prepared TO ask the death
penalty in his opening address.
"a phantom witness" appeared to-
day in the case. The mystery sur
rounding him was not cleared by
either defense or state. He is Jo'
seph Hartmann, cousin OF a nurse
who is said to have heard Marion
threaten suicide. He was found al
Toledo, O., and is now under close
guard.
Eight permanent jurors and three
tentatively selected were in the box
when court opened today. A new
venire of 80, the eighth called, was
on hand for use in an emergency.
