MADEL.YMNE DENIED
A SEPARATE TRIAL

Los Angeles, Oct. 12.-Denial of
the defense motion for a separate
trial of Mrs. Madelynne Obenchain,
Jointly indicted with Arthur c.
Burch for the Staying of J. Bolton
Kennedy, appeared probable today
when Warren l.. Williams, attorney
for Mrs. Obenchain, obtained in Judge
Reeves court a continuance of the
hearing until Thursday.
The courts action followed futile
effort on Williams part to get the
alleged Burch confession before the
court so the defense could learn to
what extent the state planned to rely
upon it.
Judge Reeve intimated that under
present conditions he probably would
dony the motion for a separate trial.
The defense will have another oppor-
tunity next Thursday morning to
further urge its motion.
