oscar Lawler of counsel for the de-
PENDANTS twice objected to the line of
questioning as immaterial and touching
upon matter not put in evidence. SUI
perior Judge William G. Deny sustained
the objection after warm argument.
Baker called upon Dr. Meyer to ex-
plain "transference," which in direct
testimony he had described as a feeling
established between physician and pa

pathy.

tend to develop my character"
DR.. Meyer had Stanley Mccormick
under his care from 1906. when the
Inulti-millionaire was adjudged incom-
petent, until 1926. Prior to 1925 he
described him as having been "suscepti-

the ear turned over. The Horton girl
was thrown 40 feet from the car,
