 The courts interrogation of Cor. .gouloff lasted an hour and a half and was broken by repeated cries from the accused, Its a political plot. I am ready to die for my ideas but l am the victim of machina- tions."

 The defense based its plea on in- sanity. Maitre Henry Geraud, who saved Raoul Villain from the gull lotine for .the murder of Jean Jaures, said he would introduce Gorgoulofrs prison writings as proof of his unbalanced mind. II the jury is convinced that the nnur- derer is insane, he will be sent for life to a hospital for the criminal ly insane.

 The treasury issued it's evacua- ton notice Saturday after the Dis trict of Columbia commissioners had backed down--temporarily, at least-on a previous eviction order. Police Superintendent Pelham Glassford was said to have warned the commissioners that any at- tempt to carry out the eviction might cause serious disorders.

 "I am a firm believer in the ul- innate sanity of our people," he said. ''I think they are innately sound, but believe that unless relief of some sort is shortly forth coming these people are going to rise up and take things into their own hands. There is no telling to what lengths desperate men, goad- ed by starvation of their families, will go.''

 Then the legislature went into another special session and during the days and weeks of discussion over releif legislation, Philadel- phia's near starving had lived in hope.
 A recent survey by a group of charitable organizations, them selves unable to help the unem- ployed, revealed mothers and children wanting for milk and bread. The committee in charge of the survey pointed out that children were forced to become beggars on the streets.

WIDOW OF SMITH REYNOLDS READY
 TOBE QUERIED
Father of Libby Holman Tells Officials of North
 Carolina and at Same
 Time Scores Them

Winston Salem, N. C., July z5- The Forsythe county grand jury convened to-day with the promise of Libby Holman Reynolds father that the widow of Smith Reynolds will be available for further in- quiry into his death "any time the cause of justice demands and her shattered mind and nerves permit.
 The telegram in which Alfred Holman made the promise con- tained bitter charges against county officials who continued the investigation of the young tobacco heirs death.
 Holman's telegram said "zealous functionaries" Actuated by fself- seeking motives ignoring every canon of decency" were attempting to overcome" the 'introconverti- bly, established" self-destruction of Young Reyonlds.
 Reynolds was shot July 6. Coroner w. N. Dalton reported the death a suicide, but coroner's jury later returned a verdict of death at the hand of person or persons unknown. Sheriff Transou Scott and the office of Solicitor Carlisle Higgins have pressed an inquiry into the case.
 The Holman telegram, which was addressed in triplicate to Sheriff Scott, solicitor Higgins and Assistant Solicitor J. Erie McMich- ael, was sent from his home at Cincinnati, Ohio.
 McMichae1 admitted receiving the telegram and told the United Press, T will not answer it."
 Sheriff Scott issued the follow ing statement:
 "The coroner's jury failed to find that Smith Reyonlds killed himself. but did say in their verdict that he met his death at the hands of a party or parties unknown to them.
 "It therefore becomes my. duty, by virtue of the office I hold, to, as- certain if possible the party or parties who caused his death"
 Coroner Dalton said Mrs Rey- holds was shown every courtesy and consideration possible at an investigation of that Kind. It is not the policy of this office to per- secute any witness at any time and it has not been done since I took offlce."
 Holman's telegram opened with a direct denial of reports that Mrs Reynolds had disappeared.

tionalists to greater efforts to fn- crease their vote in next Sundays reichstag elections. The enemies of the Hohenzollerns and the Von Papen regime also brought up their big election guns for the final week of the campaign, and one militant editor demanded plebtscite to un- seat President Von Hindenburg and impeach the supreme court.
 Ehe editor, Fritz Gerlich of the Catholic Political Review, charged that Defense Minister General Kurt von Schleicher was seeking to overthrow the republican constitu- tion and reestablish the monarchy. He alleged that the appointment by the president of a reich's commits sioner in Prussia violated the con stitution.
 The editor, Fritz Gerlich of the prove that the ex-kaiser influenced the supreme court, now hearing petitions brought by the busted Prussian government and the states of Bavaria and Baden to restrain Won Papen from administering Prussian affairs.
 Gerlich also said he had evidence that Won Schleicher and Hitler had entered a secret pact and that members of the Won Papen cabinet knew nothing about 1t.
 General Von Rundstedt, military administrator of Berlin and Bran denburg, suppressed the newspaper Volkszeitung for five days for printing an article captioned Mas ters and Lackeys." It intimated that the military was curtailing rights of private citizens, similar to conditions before the World War. The military already had suspended the communist news paper Rote Fahne.
 Politicians doubted whether the national oppositiop," the Nazis and nationalists, could win an ab- solute majority in the new reich stag, and said a working agreement with the Catholic and center par ties was imperative.
 The supreme courts decision confirmed to expectations, particu- larly because a verdict in favor of the unseated Prussian government would have been rebuke to both the Won Papen cabinet and Presi- dent Paul Won Hindenburg.
 A government spokesman said pacification of the political situa- tion, particularly in South Ger many, was expected to result from the verdict.
 Berlin, July 25.-UP)-Presi- dent Paul Von Hindenburg has consented to end the military state of emergency in Berlin and Bran denburg province tomorrow, it was said reliably to-day.
 The emergency was proclaimed last week as part of the govern ment's move to end political disor- ders in Prussia.
 The government was understood to consider the supreme court ver- dict upholding it's action in Prus- sia as assuring the political status quo in the state, and averting the danger of serious conflict.
 Rescinding of the emergency decree also will facilitate the cleo ton next Sunday.
