Charges by Husband.
In discussing his action against

acquainted with my wife nearly two
years ago, have had no comfort
through her. / can prove she cared
Tor him and that he cared for her. -
Attorney WEIGH said to The
washington Times correspondent
regarding the 100000 suit against
against DIR. Robb: "A civil jury re-
quires that we show that Mrs.
Wolschendorf died through the neg
Z ligence of DR.. Robb by a prepon-
derance of evidence, so that re-
Rarsiiess of the fate Of the de-
PENDANT in the criminal courts, /
am sure / can convince jury in
q civil session that DIR. Robb was
responsible for the death sof the
wife of my client as we shall al
Iege."
DR.. Robb was with his wife. at
Putnam's Hotel on Huntington
avenue when he first heard the
news of his Indictment for first
degree murder.
As DIR. Robb and his wife were
seen rushing from the hotel in a
fast car a few minutes after news
Of the indictment became. known,
rumors reached the district attor.
ney that Robb was fleeing the
State. Attorney John p. Feeney,
distinguished criminal attorney.
settled this question when he walk
ed into the office OF the indictment
clerk at East Cambridge.
Wife Faints AT Arrest.
Have you a warrant for DR..
Robb? Wen, here he is" :
DR.. Robb was placed i'm the prison
cage. He smiled when Deputy Bert
Adams snapped the handouts ON
him, while his loyal little wife
swOoIied.
DIR. Robh was cool and far less
excited than the deputy sheriff
who guarded the cage. There was
. consultation at the bench at
which the district attorney ana
Mr.. Feeney took part. Then the
clerk called, William NJ Robb. :"
The prisoner stood up and the
clerk said:
The court orders you committed
to the custody of the sheriff Of
Middlesex county"
Robb was taken to the jail ana
here the indictment was read to
him. and he was given a. copy.
In twenty minutes Robb was
brought back to the cage and At
torney Feeney moved that the ar.
raignment on the indictment be
heard at 2 o'clock on. Thursday
The district attorney told the court
ne was anxious for a. speedy tr1aO
and said he hoped to have the case
heard. by the. venire that was to
report ON the first Monday in DC
tober. -
Attorney F'eeney said ne. too
wished for speedy trial, but want.
ca chance to ac6uafnt l1fnaself
with the case. e--
.. Grants Attorneys Request
Judge Mcleod granted ATTORNEY
Feeney's request and set o. m
tomorrow as the time for DIR. Rohh
% plead to. the indictment. THE
court then ordered the physician
committed to the custody of fhes
sheriL AS he was led from the
courtroom, handcuffed to a deputy.
RObb showed his first signs of END,
tion. He trennbled visably, paIed
and his forehead contracted in a
neaVy frown. He seemed puzzled
that his liberty was again taken
away.
Arrived at the Jail he refused
prison fare and furnished. money
for real meal. Jailers sent out
and brought him steak, potatoes.
apple pie and ice cream. He
brought a large suit case ianrned
with clothing with him when he
reported TO the district attorney.
His parting from Mrs. Robb at the
jail door was one OF the most
pathetic ever witnessed by even the
Oldest hardened officers.
