tenance and charged the doctor with
wrong doing in his relations with 9TH
er women and with the use OF drugs.
An effort was also made by the at
torney general to introduce the doc
tors cross petition. Both were offered,
the mental attitude of Mrs. Mohr was
toward her husband after he had made
certain allegations against her in his
cross petition for divorce"
The arguments that ensued between
counsel were lengthy and heated.
Mrs. Mohr's lawyer said she had moth
ing to fear from disclosing the con-
tents Of the divorce papers, but he
objected to the state asking ques-
ton as to whether DR.. Mohr's cross bill
shows any time stated as the date OF
the marriage. He charged the prose-
cutting attorney with attaching a sin
lister meaning to his question"
Documents Excluded.
In Mrs. Mohr's petition she says she
was married ION or about May Is,
1903"
The court finally excluded both doc
uments as exhibits, leaving on record
the testimony relative to them and the
reading of the original petition by the
attorney general
Before the ruling was made Mrs
Mohr's counsel suggested that the
state renounce as a motive for the
murder any feeling that may have re-
suited from allegations made in the
divorce suits.
I'VE affirm 1T, instead of renouncina
| it," replied the attorney general.
| When court adjourned tonight the
state announced it had five more wit
nesses. While the prosecution may be
able to rest its case tomorrow, one
of the states attorneys said it was
more likely to go over until Wednes-
day, everything depending on this
