VIRGINUs ST. JULIAN MAYO
 ON TRIAL FOR BIGAMY

New York, April 26.-Virginius St. turer, formerly of New Haven, Conn, was placed on trial today before Supreme Court Justice Finch on a bigamy indict- ment returned in March, 1919.
 For three years Mayo's attorney, George Gordon Battle. has been attacking the blRamy indictment in the courts. Some time ago the appellate division of the supreme court unanimously decided that Mayo would have to stand trial.
 This afternoon Assistant District At torrcy Wintner, accompanied by District Attorney Banton, walked into Justice Finch's court. where a trial on a charge Of attempted extortion was in progress, and demanded "in the interest of public just'ce' that the case be tried at once.
 Justice Finch stopped the trial being held in his court and called the Mayo case. A jury was selected and trial tech nica!l ystarted before an adjournment was taken until tomorrow.
 The indictment against Mayo was hased on charges preferred in 1919 by Mfrs. Wilhe!mina L. Meyer Mayo, who declared that Mayo married her while he was still the husband of Mrs Florence Weeks Mayo, of Scranton, Pa, by whom he had three children.
 Mayos marital difficulties first came in- to public notice in 1915, when his 1s- year old stenographer, Miss Lillian Cook, committed suicide.
