FEAR OF WITNESS
DELAYS KLAN CASE
Judge Holds That E. n. Gray, Who
May be a Defendant, Must
Answer Questions.
by Associated Press Leased Wire.)

by Associated Press Leased Wire.) 4
Bastrop, La.-Judge F. M. Odom to-
day over-ruled objection of counsel
for E. N. Gray, witness in the open
hearing investigation into the kid
naping and Staying of Watt Daniel and
Thomas Richard, hooded band victims
and directed that Gray should continue
his testimony begun yesterday. Judge
Odom repeated his ruling of yesterday,
quired to answer questions that might
involve statements of a possible in
eliminating nature.
G. W. Barnett, as counsel for Gray,
halted proceedings when Gray was re-
called to the witness stand today with
an announcement that because of GER
tain newspaper dispatches, taken to
indicate that Gray might be made a
defendant in criminal action and other
testimony, he would decline to answer
further questions ''for the reason
his testimony might be used to in
criminate him."
Mr.. Barnett declared his client
would invoe his constitutional rights
in declining to testify.
At the end of the argument Judge
Odom held that the witness could not
be required to answer questions that
might tend to incriminate him, but
he would be required to continue his
testimony with the understanding he
would retain the right, as would any
other witness, to decline to answer
discriminating questions.
Gray asked he be excused from the
witness stand temporarily for further
conference with his attorneys. This
request was granted.

The wild west in its palmiest days
hardly carried more guns to the square
inch than did the circuit court room
this morning. In anticipation of pos
sible eruption among the more feverish
members of the west side feudal fac
tions, Sheriff Pabst had stationed depu-
ties throughout the court room in the
trial of Frank Ohiappetti, charged with
assault with intent to murder Frank
Iaquinta on September 7, 1921. The
sheriff himself was there, Undersheriff
Joseph Knipfer and Deputy Steven
Robinson, while others less known to
the crowd had mingled with the audi
ence and all were heavily armed.
Feudists Ask Protection.
The extra precaution was taken part
ly because it is believed that the bad
blood between the Chiappetti and
Iaquinta faction. is not yet stilled and
partly because the feudists them
selves have asked for protection dur
ing the trial.
Frank Chiappetti, defendant in the
present trial, was one of the most
fatalistic with regard to the situation.
