Court Recesses
Concluding his examination
along this line. Mr.. Adair said it was
perfectly natural for Mrs. Hirsch to
conclude that he was friendly and
sympathetic, because he did feel sorry
for her. He said he did not tell her she
would have to leave the city, and de-
MED emphaticaIly that he had ever
suggested that Mr.. Gambler would have
to leave if she did He denied that he
had ever offered her any money, ex-
planning that Mrs. Hirsch had accused
the mayor of improper conduct with
her. He said Cook had never solicited
an interview with him, nor had Mrs.
Hirsch.

interior of Mayor Gamblers office in che
Gambler building was produced, and
