CINCINNATI, November 29.-The
first of the scandalous tales George
p~'nus pleads drove him insane was
,s.ated from the witness stand in his
murder trial for uxorcide here today.
"ame in by virtue of ruling of
SMdge Chester II. Shook that evil
dences of a diseased mind in Remus
having been established by the testl-
n4ony of lay witnesses, the causes Tor
the insanity might be recited.
For the first time the names of
Franklin J.. Dodge, jr., former De-
partnent of Justice agent, and the
woman Remus shot to death, his
estranged second wife, Imogene, were
mentioned together from the witness
stand
Seen at Remus Home.
Three times they were seen together

Remus, ran the story, and upon Two
of the occasions Dodge tried to hide
his identity. Twice Dodge was driv-
ing expensive automobiles owned by
the man he had caused to be sent
TO the penitentiary for violation of the
prohibition law. said the testimony.
Did you ever see Franklin l.
Dodge at the Remus home?" Charles
H. Elston, co-counsel with the defend
ant, who acts as his own attorney,
asked of William Mueller, the days
opening witness.
Yes. sir; did," responded Mueller

sion here, was making his fourth ap
pearance in the witness box.
An objection by Prosecutor Charles
p. Taft. I'd. cut into the story of Muel-
Ter. The jury was sent out.
Taft asserted that the witness and
all others should be restricted to state
menta they had communicated to Re-
mus.
Judge Makes Ruling.
Judge Shocks final ruling was:
Facts, whether proven true or
false, IL brought to the defendants
knowledge previously to October S,
are competent testimony, but the facts
must have been communicated. 1t is
the burden of the State to prove muir.
der and the burden of the defense is to
prove insanity"
'How is the State to protect itself
against statements from witnesses
later proved not communicated"
asked Taft.
The court said: "You may object
when you wish"
The argument ended, however, only
when Elston gave his professional
word" he would introduce as evidence
only facts which had been communi-
Gated.
The Jury was brought back and
Mueller resumed the witness stand.
Mueller proceeded to describe a
mansion furnished completely when
Remus was sent to prison and stripped
bare upon his return. Doors and win
doys were spiked and Remus gained
entrance through a window, Mueller
said. A locksmith worked two days
opening 80 or 40 doors.
Taft moved that all of Mueller's
testimony excepting that concerning
occurrences in Remus' presence be
stricken out. The decks were cleared
for another long argument. The jury
was sent out for a Commute rest.

TORNADO RELIEF
DEFICIT FEARED
Red Cross Hopes to Complete
Awards by Friday-TotaI
Gifts $6,440.

In the hope OF concluding It's tor
nado relief work by Friday, the Dis
trict Chapter of the Red Cross today
appealed to families in the devastated
zone who may not have been visited
to communicate at once with head
quarters established in the I1ine
Junior High School.
While Miss Edith Spray, in charge
of the canNaSSing forces. has tried to
single out every case. ii is known that
a large number of faWiies have not
yet made known their needs to the
committee. These are urged to send
in their names before Friday night, for
by that time the awards committee
will have about completed its work
More Funds Needed.
Mai Gen. George Barnett, chair
man of the District Chapter, today ap-
psaled to the Washington public to
contribute few more thousands of
dollars at least this week so that no
case might he neglected. Since the
awards committee has postponed ac-
ton on cases involving large sums un-
til the last he pointed out that funds
now in hand are insufficient to care
for all of these. Ten more awards
were passed upon last night, involving
a total of $2,100.
Members of the committee were sur.
prised when an old colored woman,
who had previously been awarded SIS
to repair slight damages to her home,
walked in upon the meeting and re-
turned 50 of the amount. She explain.
ed she had managed to get the work
done for S12 and wanted to return
what was left for the benefit of some
one else.
THE case Of this old woman" said
Gen. Barnett, best illustrates the
character of the persons we are try
ing to help. They are all self respect
ing people who are not looking for
charity. Only necessity has compelled
them to accept any award whatso-
ever 1t serves also to convince the
committee in it's belief that there is
not the slightest evidence of graft on
the part of any one applying for as
siStance."
Contributions Are Tagging.
Contributions to the tornado relief
fund received at the Red Cross Chap
ter and The Evening Star Jagged be-
hind yesterdays encouraging total
Only $260.30 was received in all, of
which amount $137.30 was turned in
by the Red Cross and $3.50 by The
Star. A check for 800 from John
Hays Hammond, received by The Star
was the largest contribution of the
day. Total subscriptions to the relief
fund bring the amount to $6.440.S5, or
only about fourth of the S25, 900
quota set by the Red Cross. Unless.
contributions are received in larger
amounts during the remainder of the
week there will be large deficit, when
the final award is granted.
Gen. Barnett last night addressed

of President Driscoll. He spoke about
