Records of Alnnirail Grand
Jury Reveal Attorney Was
Mentioned i'm Initial
Draft of the Indictment
Revives Bigamy Scandal
Ex-Assistant District Atfor-
ney and L. E. Swartz Seek
Reversal of Conviction

The appeal of Edwin P Kilroe. for
mer Assistant District Attorney, aud
Louis E Swartz. also a lawyer, from
their conviction on charge Of CON
spiracy was presented to the Appellate
Division yesterday. The two were in
dicted by the Almiral grand jury upon
the complaint Of Mrs. Helene Montrose
ST. Clair Bourasse, formerly a motion
picture actress. thai her husband, Ma
Poieon Arthur Bourassc, broker has
been able to go unproSecuted on
charge OF bigamy because he had paid
$4,000 in settlement Of a civil action
for support.
There was no charge that Kilroe had
received any Of this money. but only
that he had permitted Bourassc to
escape punishment. Kiroe and Swartz
we're fined $500 each by the late jus
tice Weeks
George Gordon Battle, who had been
counsel for Bourasse and was a wit
ness for Kilroe upon the latter's trial,
vas brought into the appeal record
yesterday by Jne action of Nelson Oh
cott counsel for KiIroe, who sub
poenaed before the Appellate Division
the records of the Admiral grand
jury in the case, including the indict-
nent. This showed that the name of
Battle and Major Joseph Lily. Of his
office, had been mentioned in the drawn
form before the Indictment was found.
innocent Men Mentioned
Colonel William Rand who, as Spe-
cial Deputy Attorney General, brought
about the indictment Of Kilroe and
Swartz. made vigorous protest against
the production Of the Indictment before
The Appellate Division, 1T is d shame, ;"
said Colonel Rand, that this indict-
ment should be paraded here with the
purpose of showing that the names of
Two reputable members of the bar
we're inadvertently included in the
form though they were not included in
the indictment returned"
Colonel Rand added that Justice
Weeks at the trial ordered the indict-
nent withheld from view SO that the
names of innocent men should not be
dragged into the case The indictment
showed erasures. which had been in
tailed by Raymond F. Almirau, fore
man of the jury. These erasures were
made before the form became en- actual
Indictment
Asserts Judge Was Hostile
In his appeal Mr. Olcott criticized
the conduct of Justice Weeks upon the
trial of Kiroe and Swartz. saying:
His remarks to the jury and his hos
tile attitude toward the defense were
improper and deprived the defendant
of g fair trial"
MIR. Olcott contends that no crime
was committed by any one connected
with the case MIR Kilroe consented 20
the dropping of the charge against
Bourrase because it would be necessary
to bring his other wife from Canada
before the broker could be prosecuted
on charge of bigamy, and she showed
no inclination TO come here.
The Appellate Division reserved de-
cision on the appeal of Kilroe and
Swartz
Major Lilly said last night that his
name and that of MIR. Battle may have
got into the preliminary form because
they were witnesses in the case Their
inclusion, he thought, was through in
advertence.

Germans Defeat
In Field Proved
By Teuton Expert
Collapse Caused by Military
D. Inability Not ''Stab in
Back" by Rebels at Home,
Says DIR. Roster

LONDON, March II (By MaiD-Al-
though most Germans maintained
that Germany was not beaten in the
field, but stabbed in the back by COW
ardly revolutionaries, a CORRESPONDENT
writing in "The Morning Post" notes
German who admits defeat. DR.. Adolf
Roster, a member of the Majority
Socialist party, at one time Secretary
of State for Foreign Affairs, and at the
present moment Secretary for the In
terror, has just written a pamphlet in
which ne proves that it was to an in
dubitable military defeat that Ger
many succumbed
On November II, 1918 he states, the
whole German army in the west had
only seventeen divisions in reserve. ten
oi which were temporarily out of ac-
ton, five were reforming, and two
were quite fresh, which means. Dr..
Roster declares, that Germany had not
sufficient men to enable her to con-
tinue fighting. Moreover, he adds the
most necessary war material could no
longer be replaced, Germany's allies
we're dropping away, and altogether
the danger was inn. nent of Germany
being involved in the greatest military
catastrophe that her history had known.
Not only does DR.. Roster furnish in
contestable proof for these assertions,
stab in the back. He points out the
moral reserves, too, were exhausted, for
to quote Admiral Tirpitz, the blockade
could not but gradually affect the whole
life of the nation" but he contends that
when one thinks Of what the scantily
clothed and under-nourished masses of
the German people accomplished and
suffered during the last years Of the
war the grandiloquent phrases Of the
stab legend seem neither more nor
less than national blasphemy.
The writer goes further, however,
and proves that up to the very end
soldiers in the field were infected with
pacifsm or with an+i-miltary feel;nrs.
They were all, ne says, worn out ply
slcauy eHC hIeG-..-y a- -i.c -...,
strain of carrying on such a war, and
their powers of resistance were natur-
ally reduced. When. therefore, they
suddenly hoard in the beginning Of
October, 1918, of the request for
c,s-s i.s o. nostllitIes they were un-
able to withstand the shock. Since the
previous July the German people had
realized that they would not gain the
victory in which they were so conf
dent up to that tine, but they felt sure
that they would not be defeated, and
ehat they would come out of the war
with credit TO themselves.
The confession contained in the re-
quest for cessation of hostilities that
the nation could not continue fighting
vas such a surprise to the German
people that their shattered nerves
Jailed them altogether, and they col
apsed The very fact, however. that
re Army and the people at home were
% terribly surprised is, Dr.. Roster con-
ends, plain proof that they were SO
eTnoTalized.

City Can't Seize Subway,
Is Opinion in albany
Governor gVon'f Comment orr
mayors Acsion, bnf Others
DecInre That III viii Fail
From, q StnO Correspondent


ALBANY, March % 4Mayor HyIan's
order to Corporation Counsel O'Brien
to take steps to assume control over
the Int thorough Rapid Transit Com
pnny on behalf Of the City Of New
York is regarded here as futile.
Governor Miller, when told Of the
Mayors move, declined to make any
comment. The consensus here is that
the Mayor will meet with no more sue
cess in this effort to contest the au-
thority Of the Transit Commisso on
than he did last year when he sought
to have the transit act declared invalid
by blocking payments of funds de-
mandod by the commission from the
city.
Among the fifty-seven bills signed
by the Governor to-day was the Hew-
itt-McGjnnics measure, which appro-
PIRATES $5,500,000 for the New York
New Jersey vehicuar tunnel.
Another proposal which became law
was the Blnkely bill, sanctioning fire
mems two-platoon systems, already
established in Grst-clnss cities. The
encc Of Mayors on the ground that it
violates home rule. Governor Miller
in signing It brushed these objections
aside, saying this contention was
purely theoretical
"I vetoed similar bill of more
general application last year" said
the Governor, "but that did impose
mandatory requirements necessitating
changes in the methods then in force
in some cities. This measure merely
gives executive sanction TO the systems
already adopted. While they may be
unnecessary, | fail to see that it does
any harm and it may do some good In
ouieting the fears Of the members Of
the fire departments"
The food Of protests against the
Knight mental deficiency bill, which
has been characterized as menace to
personal freedom, continues to in
crease. Each mail brings the Governor
scores Of letters asking him TO veto
this measure. No hearing has been
set on it as yet, but it is understood
that one is to be had week after next
Considerable opposition also is cen
tered on the Bloomfield bill placing
added restrictions upon chiropractors
and the measure which would permit
persons who have served in the Legs-
lature for ten years or more TO practice
law without having to meet the usual
requirements.
Buried among the bills before the
Governor are three affecting marriage
One permits City Clerk Michael Cruise
of New York to appoint an additional
clerk to perform marriages. He now
has but one. A second gives courts power
to determine in actions for annulment
Of marriage whether the fact that
marriage entered into by person un-
der the age Of eighteen shall be con-
sidered valid claim for annulment. The
third bill provides that dissolution OF
marriage on the ground of absence may
be made where the husband or the wife
has been missing for more than five
wears

Whaleskin Used for Boots
After Being Split to LAYERS

Whaleskin is SO thick that It can be
split into several layers, each as stout
a ox-hide, and 1t is excellent for max
ing boots, bags, harness or betting.
The usefulness Of the whale in this
respect is not confined TO his outer
skin. The stomach furnishes leather
as soft and as strong as the best kid.
Another important thing about the
whale is that the whole of his skin is
good.
The skins of cows, horses and other
land animals furnish a comparatively
small quantity Of leather, for only GER
tain portions Of the hide are Of the
right quality.
