Maid Who Accompanied Defend

Cross. Examined

MineOla, ~ Y, Nov. 2S.-Taking of
testimany in the trial of Mrs. Blanche
De Saulles on charge of numbering
her divorced husband, John l.. De
Saulles, neared an end in supreme
court here today.
DIR. Smith Ely eJliffe, an alienist,
and DR.. Louis c. Johnson, "Physi-
illogical chemist" told from the wit
ness stand of diagnoses which they
made of Mrs., De Saulles' condition
shortly after the tragedy on the night
OF August 3 at 'Thc Box" De Saulles'
Long Island home. Their evidence
tended to support the Chilean wom-
ans claim that she was not account
able for her actions when she fired the
revolver shots which killed her for
mer husband.
Expert Testimony
"Hypothyreosis," the disease OF
thyroid gland which her attorney
maintained affected the defendant at
the time of the shooting, was frequent
ly mentioned by the experts. Incl

photograph purporting to show that
Mrs. De Saulles also was suffering

tured skull was introduced in evil

her on the automobile ride from her

Just before the shooting occurred,
was the only other witness examined
today whose testimony Is regarded as
having an important bearing on the
case.
There were discrepancies IN the

and defense shortly after August ..
This deposition was read to the jury

The governor named the places where

RULING SETBACK TO
HOPES OF GOVERNOR

Lewis +. Crawford of Sentinel Butte
Is still president Of the North Dakota
board of regents, despite an election
held by the Frazier regents at the last
meeting of the board, when they
named Robert Muir of Sarles to this
Office.
Attorney General William S. Langer,
who to date has fought all the govern
or's battle for control of this board,
so advised J. W. Wilkinson, secretary
of the state university, in an opinion
handed down Wednesday.
Secretary WilkersOn had written
the attorney general requesting an
opinion on the grounds that important
documents awaited the signature OF
the president of the board aud tnat
Dean Babcock desired to know which
of tho contestants might be consid'
cred the legal president.
Immediately upon receipt OF your
letter | examined the minutes of the
state board of regents from October
30 to November 2 inclusive, and from
the record as shown in the Office OF
the secretary of the state board of re-
gents it is my opinion that the rules
and regulations adopted by the form
er board of regents for it's official pro-
ceedure were not received by the
present board, and that the former
rules provided that the president
should be elected for period of one
year. Investigation shows further
that although an attempt was made
to elect Hon. Robert 7. Muir presl-
dent, yet the said election was of no
force and effect because it was in con
fiict with the rule established by the
former board of regents. and conse
uuently the action was illegal. l0nse
uuently Lewis F.. Crawford continues
as president of the board of regents
and he is the proper person to sign
the vouchers as president of the state
board of regents" says LANCER III his
opinion.
Langer's statement seems to indl
cate that he outlined a mode of pro
ceedure to be used by the Frazier re
gents in deposing Hanna and that in
