 A fourth defendant, Henry De La Bruyere Carpenter. a cousin of Mrs. | Hall, will be tried later. but he too will offer an alibi. counsel said. Both defense and prosecution to- day had their course mapped out. Special Prosecutor Alexander Simp- son has intimated that the attack would center on Henry Stevens.
 Willie Stevens will be forced to bear, the brunt of MT. Simpsons cross ss-examination. Announcement that he would take the stand came as a surprise Upon him may rest the chief burden of refuting the story of Mrs. Jane Gibson that she saw Willie, Mrs Hall and Carpen- der at the scene of the murder. and of the state that his fingerprints mark the calling card.
 All the defendants spent an un- troubled day yesterday in the opin- ion of Mrs. Henry Stevens, who wis., ited her husband for several hours in the Somerset county jail. Willie was reading a book on metallurgy. she said, while her husband read hunting and fishing stories. Carpen' der has received s6 books as gifts since placed in jail, she said. They cover a wide range but Mrs. Stew ems says he prefers those dealing with detective and mystery tales.
 MT. Simpson Is confident that jury can be obtained within an hour on Wednesday. The panel Of 50 talesmen has been reduced to 29.
 MT. Simpson claims to have affi- davit that Ralph V. NJ. Gorsline, who was a vestry man in the slain clergy mans church. told private detec- tive that he saw Henry Stevens at the scene of the crime, and Stevens fired two shots at Gorsline's feet.
 Workmen today began preparing the courtroom in the Somerset county court house for the trial. AL ready 35 telegraph instruments have been installed in the basement. and switchboard, the slme as was us- ed at the Dempsey -Tunney fight at Philadelphia, set up.

Radio station WRNY has installed temporary transmit ting set in building across the street. despite protest by Cover nor Moore against broadcasting the trial.

ASTRlD MAY HOLD
 TO HER RELIGION
Belgian Tolerance Makes No
 Change Necessary
Brussels, Nov. 1.-tR-There is no

Brussels, Nov. 1.-tR-There is no state religion in Belgium. the Bel gium constitution recognizes all de- nominations, granting them equal freedom. Thus although Prince Leo pold is Catholic and Princess Astrid Protestant. the bride will not have to renounce her religion to become a Princess of Belgium and it's future queen in marrying the young man of her choice.
 Following the precedent created by 'the marriage of, Leopold the First, a Lutheran. to the Catholic daughter of King Louis Philippe of France the wedding will be a mix ed one, in accordance with the rules of both the Catholic and Protestant churches.
 When the present Queen of Spain. then Princess Victoria Ena of Bat tenberg, was betrothed to King Al fonso XIII, it was decided that she should emrace the Catholic religion. The Archbishop of Westminster per- sonally undertook the task of teach ing the young princess the doctrines of the Catholic chugch. The princess made rapid progress and within two weeks the archbishop informed her uncle, King Edward, that she had mastered the most Fundamental dog mas.
 King Edward gave dinner in her honor.
 T understand you are rather a great Catholic scholar" the king told the princess in the course of the repast. "Tell us what you know about it."
 The young princess replied with all evidence of earnestness:
 There are only two main differ ences between the Catholic religion and ours. One concerns the Virgin Mary, who I am, perfectly prepared to recognize as immaculate. The other refers to the visible head of the churches. I am sure that saintly old man in Rome (Pope Leo A1lD is just as qualified to be the head of the church as you are, uncle."
 This ended King Edwards ex animation on religious matters.
 The civil marriage of the prince and princess will be performed in Stockholm on Thursday by the sc cialist mayor Carl Lindhagen. On November 10 the Catholic and Pro- testant services will be held in Brus- sells

PROHIBITION OF INDEPENDENT
STUDENT SOCIETIES.

ROUMANIA.-The weekly organ of
this society, "Viatea Universitara"
university LIFE which conducted a
sharp struggle against the Fascist
students, was interdicted by the 2
Corps commander in Bucharest. The
official communique based this prohi-
bition upon the necessity of prevent
ing conflict between divergent student
organizations. 1t is noteworthy that
the Fascist organizations are given
all possibilities of movement and ac-
tion, and that they are actually sup
ported by the government and mill
tary authorities. The League itself
was dissolved and all organizations
were threatened with the same fate
by the military powers if they should
admit any of the former members Of
the suppressed society into their
ranks. The most radical paper in
Bucharest, the "Facla" invited the
students to publish their manifestoes
in its columns despite threats Of sup
preston by the military authorities.
