DON 7 WORRY
ELOPERS SAY

''We're having a fine time.
Don't worry. Well be back in
a few days to straighten this
whole thing out"
That telephone message from
Florida, from Anne Cook, 81,
today defined the status of the
romance that led first to the
marriage of her sister, Jane, 10,
to the family chauffeur, George
Scarlette, the issuance of a lar
ceny warrant for Scarlette and
the flight of the newlyweds and
Anne to Florida.
Mrs. John Madigan, jr., of the
Broadmoor, revealed she had the
telephone call from Anne, pre-
sumably from Miami.
Meanwhile, in their luxurious
Chevy Chase (MdO home, Mr..
and Mrs. Howard de Walden
Cook were reported still unforgiv.
ing toward their daughters.
There was no indication they
had retreated from their first
stand-that Jane must give up
her 21-year-old husband or give
up her home.
The warrant against Scarlette
stands, charging him with the
theft of $4,000 worth of Mrs.
Cooks jewels. No effort is being
made for the time being to serve
it, apparently everything waiting
on the expected family conference
in a few days.

Check Too Small

Q.-The check is not for $40, is
It? Att is not.
Q.-All right. So that when
they deducted 1888, if you worked
one day less than a half month,
then the deduction was too much,
wasn't it, even at the rate OF
$40? A.-Well, can't remember
There was, guess, two Sundays
in it; but I figure out it was a
check for $50.
Mr.. Wilentz: I offer the check
in evidence. (Check referred to
was received in evidence0
Q.-Now, you worked two more
days in April, you said, and you
got paid for two days, didn't
you? Ayes.
Q.-And you got paid at the
rate of 1888 day, didn't you?
.(Exhibiting Chez: to witness.)
Ayes.
o.-That is your signature?
Ayes.
Mr.. Wilentz-I offer it in evi.
dence. (Check referred to was
received in evidence).
Q.-Now the check for $36.67,
that check you cashed at the
National Lumber and Millwork
Company, isn't that a fact? A
Yes.
Q.-That is the lumber yard
where you used to work? A.-Yes.
Q.-That is in the Bronx?
Ayes.
Q.-That is the lumber COM
pany owned and operated by the
two men who were in court the
other day? Ayes.
Q.-Who testified you pur-
chased some lumber from them?
Ayes.

Sharpe, did you? A.-No.

thenp Al never quit in middle
Of the week. When I quit it is
always Saturdays.
Q.-That is another habit you
have? A.-No; 1 guess every car
penter does it like this.
Q.-I show you a check made
out to Richard Hauptmann and
show you signature that purports
to be yours. Is that yours? See if
your signature is on the back?
A.-That'S mine.
Q.-You got that money, didn't
you, from this employer, Reliance
Property Management? A.-That
is the pay check for March.
Q.-Ls the pay check for March
18th to March 31st? A.-March
the 18th or 18th to last of March.
Q.-And if it were $3.50 a day,
the check would be right, at the
rate of $500 a month, wouldn't it
-$36.67; that is to say $33 for a
third Of a month, 10 days, and the
18th day 1888? Al figure out
this time when 1 was working it
was only $50.
Q.-And if instead of being half
a month there was one day less,
because you said maybe you started
on the 18th and not on the 18th
day. A.-Either on the 10th or
18th.
Q.-Then they wouldn't take
1888 off for one day, because that,
at that rate your salary and wage
would have been at least 500 a
month: isn't that right? Al
couldn't get that.
Q.-Now either your wages were
500 month or your wages were,
$50 a month, that's correct, isn't
it? Ayes.
eff you worked half month,
then your check would have been
for $40, isn't that right? Ayes.

HUNDREDS TRY
IN Vain To GET
TRIAL SEATS

COURT ROOM, PENNINGTON,
N. j., Jan. 20 Q.N.SO.-Extra
State troopers were on the job
today to cope with the crowd
trying to storm the courthouse to
get into the trial of Bruno Rich
ard Hauptmann. A long line
formed early and when the court
room doors were opened, every
seat was taken in a jiffy.
Guards then tried to prevent
others from coming in. They
closed big iron gate leading to
a side entrance and forced the
spectators to form a line. Hun
dredS waited patiently in the line
with about a chance in a thou
sand of getting in. They did not
seem to mind the cold.
No Standees Today
Women in mink coats protested
when the guards stopped them.
They warned the police they had
Influence" but the guards were
more obdurate than yesterday
when the courtroom was jammed
to the point of suffocation. fore
ing Justice Thomas w. Trenchard
to issue instructions that there
would be no standees today.
Residents of Hunterdon county
expressed their displeasure at the
ability of "big shots" from Broad
way to get in while they were left
out in the cold. They besieged
the sheriff with protests.
Hauptmann was brought into
the courtroom at $50 a. m. He
paid no attention to the specta-
tors, took his accustomed seat and
went into a huddle with his attor-
neys. Asked how he felt, he said:
"Fine thanks"
At the time Hauptmann was
brought in all seats were filled.
Some spectators were standing
but not as many as yesterday. The
aisles were fairly clear and condi-
tions were much improved.
Hauptmann continued chatting
with Defense Attorney Edward j.
Reilly and Lloyd c.. Fisher.
The defendant was smiling at
times. He looked confident and
cagy.
Newsreel photographers sat on
the judges bench before court
opened and "shot" pictures Of
the crowd. It was the first time
in days that photographers had
real chance to move around
and they make the most of the
situation.
Wife Is Late
There were about 400 persons
less in the court room than yes
terday. Among the early arrivals
were Jack Lait, Jack Benny and
Clifton Webb. The mink coats
and the threadbare sat side by
side. The crowd was much more
orderly than in the past. AS the
time for reconvening neared,
Standees began to sprout. Some
even got on the window sills and
settled back to watch the show.

rived too late for her morning
