kilroe Conspiracy Case
Will Go to Jury To-day
Witness Says Assistant District
Attorney Told Mrs. Bourasse to
Get Another Prosecutor

The trial Of Edwin p. Kilroc, Assist
ant District Attorney, and Louis f.
Swarts on charge OF conspiracy will
&c to tho jury to-day, the end Of the
case being expedited by Justice Weeks
by night sessions yesterday and
Wednesday,
Harold Norris, vice president of the
National Surety Company, was wit
ness yesterday. He told Of his first
meeting with Mrs. Helen Montrose st.
Marie Bourasse, an actress, the COM
planning witness in the case. She WAS
one Of the wives Of Napoleon A. Bou
rassc, stockbroker, and complained
because Mr. Kilroe did not prosecute
him for bigamy.
Mr.. Norris quoted Mrs. Bourassc as
saying that Mr. Rourassc told her he
had another wife in Canada, but that it
was "all fixed up" The following day
Mr.. Norris met Mrs. Bourasse in Mr..
Kilroes Office, where she denied saying
she believed the Assistant District At
torney was in the pay of her husband.
Thereupon, said Mr.. Norris, Mr.. Kill
roe told Mrs. Bourasse he did not want
to have anything more to do with the
tigamy case, and told her to select an
Assistant District Attorney to handle
it from a list of prosecutors he showed
her. The attorneys summed up late
yesterday, and Justice Weeks will
charge the jury this morning.

Court Releases
World Men i'm
Contempt Case
Sentence Against Beazell
and Scanlan Suspended
by Judge McAvoy After
They Make Explanations
Paper to Appeal One Case
Holds Decision ON Status
of Beazell Accusation
Has Important Bearing

Supreme Court Justice John v. Nc
Avoy yesterday suspended sentence on
William p. Bcazell and Robert O..
Scallan, the two members Of The New
York World staff he found guilty Of
contempt Of court as result Of the
article published in The World on
February 26 last.
The article in question referred to
an alleged attempt by representatives
of the building trades materia, men,
under indictment for violation OF the
state antitrust laws, to obtain fines
instead OF imprisonment in case they
pleaded guilty. The evidence taken
during the trial showed that informa-
tion was given to Mr.. Beazell con-
tidentially, and he in turn transmitted
it to his city editor for investigation
in the ordinary routine Of newspaper
work. Mr.. Scallan was assigned to the
task, and he wrote the story.
In the argument before the court
yesterday prior to the suspension Of
sentence, Sicgfried Hartman, counsel
for the two men, pointed out that Bea-
zell had not in any way referred to any
judicial procedure, and could not there
fore be in contempt Of court.
1t is understood that, so far as the
case Of Beazell is concerned, The World
New-York tribune., 1921-04-01

of the court in lis cnse Is Of vital i'm
portance to the daily routine Of news
paper publication. The appeal, it is
understood, will be based on the argu-
mcnt that his action in the matter in
no way affected or referred to any ju-
dicial proceeding, nor reflected upon
any such proceeding.
In the proceedings yesterday Robert
O. Scallan read an apology to the
court, in which he assumed all respon-
sibility for the article. Mr.. Beazell
also addressed the court, regretting
that tho information no had secured
had resulted in an article to which the
Ford, the Special Deputy Attorney Cen
eral, who was prosecuting the building
trades material cases, and was directed
by the court to prosecute the contempt
proceedings, stated he regretted that
the apology Of Mr.. Scanlan did not ex-
tend to himself and the high office he
represented.
In suspending sentence Justice Nc
Avoy read the following memorandum:
THE court had in mind at the out
set OF the proceedings and throughout
the proceedings that the ofrense here
was one which merited q sentence to
tho county prison and was not to be
placated by fine.
Indignation Of Court
"This determination, am quite sure,
was somewhat Indicated throughout the
proceedings, and have no doubt was
fomented by the courts personal in
dignation because of the attack upon
the individual occupying the place
The object Of the law. however, is not
to vindicate any individual Judge, but
is to cause and compel respect for the
administration Of the law without even
the necessity for formal trial.
"The court may summarily call to
the bar any person who publishes a
false or even an inaccurate account
Of proceeding which is pending in
court and punish without any reference
to any other person or any other Judge
the act charged. But do think, in
view of the statements Of both the per-
sons who are ultimately responsible,
that the majesty of the court, the su-
preme court of the state, is entirely
vindicated | have no wish to add nv
personal Indignation to the affront to
the court in the imposition of any SEN
tence. l, therefore, suspend sentence
in both cases"

Paris Divorce Valid.
Judge lntimates in
Suit by Mrs. Could
Reserves Decision on Hus.
bands Application to Dis
miss Action; CriticizesHer
for Seeking Decree Here

Justice Mullan reserved decision yes
terday on the application of counsel
for Frank j. Could to dismiss the COM
plant in the divorce action brought
by Mrs. Edith Kelly Gould in the Su-
preme Court here. after intim ating he
believed her legally bound by the Paris
divorce deere obtained by Mr.. Gould.
Former Justice Samuel Seabury, for
Mr.. Gould. argued that the French de-
cree, granted in proceeding wherein
Mrs Gould appeared, was valid and
binding. while Roderc Wellman, who
appeared for Mrs. Gould. contended
that the Goulds were living only tenn
porarily in France, that their legal res
idence was New York and that the
French tribunals were without jurs-
diction over them
On this last point Justice Mullan ar
gued at length with Mr.. Wellman. 1t
would be "stupendous stultitication
of justice" said the court, to permit a
litigant to appear in one jurisdiction
and when beaten there appear in an
other jur sdiction.
When Mrs. Gould was sued in Paris
she tried to prove counter charges
against Mr.. Could in addition to enter
ing defense against his suit The
prove these counter charges and gave
a judgment of divorce in favor of Mr..
Gould on December 9, 1919 Mrs.
Gould's appeal from this finding was
denied Coming to New York, Mrs.
Gould filed her action for divorce on
April %, 1920. At the same time she
filed q suit for separation.
Justice Mullan commented that one
cannot play the red and the black at
the same time He added that the
attitude of Mrs. Gould was that she
would submit to the jurisdiction of the
French courts, and then, being beaten,
she pleaded the baby act" and, "say-
ing she would not play came to Amer
ica and tried to ignore che Paris de-
cree and bring an action herself in

Mr.. Goodykoontz then reverted
to the Constitution, reading section
Q, article IL, which requires that
in a State where the right to vote
at an election 1s denied to a citt,
zen or such rights Is In any way
abridged, the basis OF representa-
ton In Congress for that State
shall be reduced.
He said: THE words of the
Constitution are plain, the inter'
ton OF those who framed 1t cleal
and explicit. The terms are man
Aatory in character telling Con
gress that It shall reduce represn-
cation whenever and wherever DIS"

Then he cited the following
cases where the Constitution Is
"palpably violated" by excluding
the Negro from participation in
elections:
