DEFENSE LOSES MOVE.
Denied Permission to Examine Records
of Grand Jury.

NEW YORK, October 8 OP.-BronX
County Judge Harry Stacken today
denied a motion by counsel for Bruno
Richard Hauptmann for permission to
examine the minutes Of the grand jury
that indicted Hauptmann on charge
of eXtortion in the Lindbergh kidnap
case.
The court also denied request by
the defense for copy of the minutes.
The denial came after As minutes of
debate between James NJ. Fawcett,
counsel for Hauptmann, and District
Attorney Samuel j. Foley.
Fawcett made clear that his motion
was preliminary to motion to quaSh
the indictment on the ground that the
facts in the case did not sustain the
charges.
For 80 minutes Fawcett cited cases
dating back to the nineteenth century
in United States law, in which he said
the courts had ruled the grand jury
minutes might be examined by the de-
fense when the defendant had not
presented his case before a district
magistrate.
Foley told the court the purpose of
the application was to examine the
evidence that had accumulated
against Hauptmann and said no court
would consider dismissing the indict-
ment.
Judge Stackel1 said the sole pur-
pose of the motion was only 70 set
aside the indictment and Fawcett
readily agreed.
There is no indication in the mo-
ton that there is the slightest evi-
dence Of insuff1ciency of the evidence
given the grand jury" Judge Stackell
said. There is nothing that might
infer that the motion to dismiss the
indictment would meet with any sue
cess whatever. This case has NET
with SO much public attention it is
unlikely that the Indictment would
be dismissed.
Evidence Sufficient"
ut Is obvious that the motion is
made purely for the dismissal of the
indictment and upon the merits of
the motion intend to deny it. There
is sufficient evidence to Withstand any
motion to dismiss the Indictment"
Foley contended that the evidence
given the grand jury was sufficient to
bring the case to trial and he said
that in many of the cases cited by
defense counsel additional and un-
quoted circumstances attending the
cases would tend to show that the
courts granted the motions only when
an insufficiency Of evidence was
clearly indicated.
At the conclusion Of the hearing
Fawcett told the court that he in
tended to examine some of the wit
nesses brought before the grand jury.
