By United Press Leased Wire

LOS ANGELES, July 81 Just

body of Fred Oestorreich, slain
manufacturer, was found on the
floor of his beautiful home here,
the ease of his widow, Walburga
Oesterreich, charged with his muir
der, although she was found locked
in a closet at the scene Of the
crime, was called for preliminary
hearing in Justice Baird S court.
Crowds of curious, present when
ever n woman is on trial for mur
der, filled the courtroom at an
early hour to catch a glimpse of
Mrs. Oesterreich, an unusual wo
man of wealth and culture.
The state believes it has enough
evidence to hold the accused wo
man over for trial by jury in sup
orior court. Its case rests on the
testimony of two men, who told of
being asked by the widow to dis
pose of two .25 calibre automatics
shortly after the shooting. Oster-
reich was killed with weapon of
this calibre.
These guns have been recovered
and will be used as exhibits by the
prosecution.
An interior decorator is also ex-
pected to tell of being ordered by
the widow, shortly after the mur
der, to make alterations on the door
Of the fatal closet in which she
says she was imprisoned by Oster-
reich's unknown asSassins.
Defense attorneys announced
their intention of asking for the
widow S release on grounds of in
sufficient evidence.

are not known-to husbands of wo-
men he preyed upon.
For six years this had broken up
prominent family homes and even
led some of the victims to commit
suicide.
The motive was to rid himself
of wives he tired of so that he
might continue unhampered to prey
upon others.
