MEASURE CENSURING
JUDICIARY IS KILLED
South Carolina Senate to Permit
Compromise on Expense
Allowances.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
COLUMBIA, S. c., January %
The Senate cleared the way for a
heralded compromise" of the judicial
pay issue yesterday by killing a reso-
luton which members contended
would have censured the judiciary.
Shortly after Senator John F. Will
liams of Aiken announced that a
committee of the State Bar ASsocia-
ton planned to seek compromise"
the chamber rejected Senator H. K.
Cookies resolution to have judges who
accepted expense allowances sued for
their return.
Senator Cooke denied that his reso-
luton would rebuke the judges un-
duly, but Senator HughS of Oconee
quoted a sentence of it as charging
them with "a clear violation of the
constitution" by taking expense allow
ances which Hughs termed proper" !"
The House passed on second, or
"test," reading bill to license
rolling stores" or merchandising
trucks.
Senators approved and sent to the
House a bill to ratify constitutional
amendment dividing the State into
three game zones and gave second
reading to bills to ratify constitu-
tional changes allowing the Legisla-
ture to place county officers on Q
salary instead of fee basis.

no more than as or 20" minutes, he
said
In all probability the State will
withhold number of additional wit
nesSes for rebuttal testimony in meet
ing whatever defense is put up by
Reilly. 1t is likely that the States re-
buttal will be lengthy.
Defense Shields Case.
Meanwhile the defense made ready
to lay down its shields and take up
cudgels. AS the State took its final
thrusts of direct testimony Haupt-
mann's defense counsel shielded its
case in secrecy.
Hauptmann himself was numbered
the first witness, to be followed by
his wife, Anna, and from four to six
handwriting experts.
Reilly said today he had not sub
poenaed a single witness. but it is
known that SubpoenaS are in the
hands of several persons expected to
be called.
Reilly has done no more than gen.
eralize on the prospective defense
testimony, but said he has so wit
nesses whom he might call.
But" he added, I'll be fortunate
If I can produce 80 of them"
AS to the nature of any of his sur
prise" witnesses, Reilly said:
Their testimony is all under my
hat, and it will stay there until they
get on the stand"
Reilly Relies on Chance.
The traditional conduct of Reilly's
cases has firm footing on the elements
of surprise and chance. Many times
before he has seized an opportunity, a
chance word, an unplanned bit Of
testimony. to reverse the trend of a
trial.
What the forid-faced Brooklyn
chief of counsel may have up the
sleeve of his formal morning coat was
somewhat of a speculative matter
even to his associates.
Before starting testimony the order
of the defense was first, a motion for
dismissal by Egbert Rosecrans, one of
the defense legal staff.
The contentious are based on tall
ure of the State to produce material
witnesses, the absence of spectators
at the crime. certain unexplained
| angles which might indicate the kid
naper was not without accomplices,
the lack of admission of participa-
ton in the crime by the defendant
and such holes" in the States case
as croSs-examination may have shown.
Hauptmann and his counsel based
confidence in his acquittal on the
fact that New Jersey law does not
require that a defendant prove his
innocence and that the State has
failed to prove its case"
Jury Takes its Walk.
The jury took its walk last night
but it didn't leave the hotel.
Like passengers promenading the
deck of ship, the jurors paced back
and forth around the second floor
porch, moving rapidly and breathing
deeply of the fresh night air.
Justice Trenchard has insured
against wet feet for his jurors.
| The 71-year-old jurist, solicitous OF
the welfare of the eight men and -four
women, walked through the slush OF
Flemington's main street and talked
to them of the dangers Of colds and
illness from damp shoes.
A shoe merchant was called and
the jury marched dry-footed from its
hotel to the court room, well clad in
new rubbers.

TRIAL |NTENS|F|ES
TYPES AND FACES
Three CoIonels Contrast
Sharply in Attitudes
Toward Hauptmann.
BY ANNE GORDON sUYDAM.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

FLEMINGTON, N. j., January 23.-
As the same people come into this
court room day after day, you take to
noticing their hands, their eyes, their
characteristic attitudes, and among
the most characteristic are the three
colonels who sit side by side-Col.
Lindbergh, Col. Schwarzkopf and Col.
Breckenridge.
Col Lindbergh leans forward during
most of the testimony, arms crossed
and elbows upon his knees, intently
watching each witness, even during
the long technical sieges with hand
writing experts, when many Of us let
our attention wander.
Col. Schwarzkopf also leans for
ward, his gaze equally intent, but for
much of the time that concentrated
stare rests upon Bruno Richard
Hauptmann. Only I don't think it
rests upon him at ALL think that it
stabs him through and through. FIRE.
quently while looking at Hauptmann
I have come into the line of that
steady, watchful gaze of Col. Schwartz
kopf's, and have stirred uncomfortably
/ III my own SullIleSS seat.
Breckenridge Quiet and Sad.
Col. Breckenridge is a figure of grief
who might have been immortalized by
Rodin. His head bowed in his hands,
his eyes cast down, he listens for hour
| after hour TO the endless stream Of
words, tense, fatalistic and immutable
Sometimes he forces his eyes up, some
times he clenches his gold watch
/ tightly in the palm Of his right hand,
| but usually he sits motionleSs. Lind
bergh is his friend, and his obvious
sorrow is an eloquent testimonial to
/ the finest qualities of friendship be-
tween man and man.
Col. Breckenridge is man in his
sos, whose promotion to colonelcy fol-
lowed a citation by Gen. c. P. Sum-
neral for his gallantry in the st.
Michel and Meuse-Argonne offensive
| during the great war. Col. Schwarz-
kopt is a man in his 40s, a graduate
of West Point, who resigned his Army
career to become chief Of police of
New Jersey. Col. Lindbergh is a man
in his 30s, who, because of his ex-
traordinary daring and high charac-
| ter, was commissioned a colonel in the
Reserve Corps of Missouri by the Pres
ident of the United States.
A Study in Contrasts.
These three men. geographically,
temperamentally and professionally
once far removed from each other. sit
now side by side in grim unity-the
signing colonel, the spying colonel, the
| flying colonel.
During the ghastly testimony given
by the county coroner and physician
Lindberghs eyes dropped for once from
1 the witness chair. I have never seen
him look at Hauptmann. But Haupt-
mann frequently and furtively looks
at him. He does not sneer then. If
it be true that he admireS courage,
and if it be true that he is intensely
interested in aviation, perhaps his
German spirit clicks its heels before
Lindbergh.

ness stand. the quiet, eart-rending
Anne Lindbergh, Mrs. Whately, the
DEFIANT but convincing Betty Cow and
the timid, genteel Myra Condor
Hacker. These were followed by the
chic Park avenue neglige model, Hill
oegarde Alexander; the frightened,
nuttery little Miss Elmira Dormer,
matron OF Catholic orphanage near
Hopewel, who testified that none of
her orphans had gone astray; the
portly Mrs. Achenbach, neighbor and
presumably one-time friend of the
Hauptmanns, proprietreSs Of a bakery,
whose rosy fleshiness was a testimonial
to the superior quality of her dough,
and who Missed like an angry goose
from the witness chair.
Cashier Coy on Stand.
And, finally, we had the cocky Mrs.
Cecilia Barr, who has spent 25 of her
years behind the cashiers wicket Of a
movie palace and who attempted with
coy gestures and grimaceS to keep
Hauptmann behind the grimmer and
more binding bars. She didn't prove
much, but for a few moments her
name was more prominent than Greta
Garbo's in lights over her own movie
theater, and, back in her cage, she
will probably be a thwarted woman
from now on.
Mrs. Whately took the stand again
yesterday to identify the suitcase
which was in the nursery on the night
of the kidnapping.
Mrs. Gerta Henckel, friend of
Hauptmann, has come to court. She
is slight, rather pretty. During ses-
SONS Hauptmann looked back at her
eagerly once or twice, but Mrs. Haupt-
mann did not glance her way, al
though they spoke together at ad-
journment.
Tale of a Cigarette Case.
Circumstantial evidence took a
strange turn late last night when a
trustworthy young man came to Prose
cutor George K. Large with a silver
cigarette case bearing the initials
B r H" which he said he had found
in the woods near the Lindbergb
estate a few months ago. Mr.. Large.
delighted with this first bit Of sub
Stantial proof that Hauptmann had
been in those woods, sWelled his chest
and went home to lunch with his
wife. She was interested but sud-
denly skeptical, and on seeing the
case promptly exploded her husbands
theory, after the realistic fashion Of
wives. You're all wrong, my dear"
she said, or words to that effect, and
proceeded to prove to his chagrin that
she had given that very case as
Christmas present to a friend, one
Bertha Rittenhouse Higgins.
The lady was reached, proclaimed
eXcitedly that her case had been
stolen a short time ago, and Mrs.
Large was vindicated, but not before
several reporters had put the story
on the wire.
Such strange bits Of circumstantial
evidence, such unconflrmed identlf1-
cations. may fall fiat and be little
needed by counsel or jury in placing
Hauptmann at the scene of the crime.
But maybe one reason that they are
little needed is that they are little
needed-so much other less dramatic
but more damning evidence has
tended to place him there that. COM
pared with the solemn technical wit
nesses, the Cecilia Bars and the
Millard Whiteds stand out only as
comic relief in the dramatis personnae
Of this tragedy.

BILL TO BAN 'EXT0RTION'
SUITS PENNED BY WOMAN
Breach of Promise, Alienation OF

INDIANAPOLIS, January 23.-Ad-
mitting that she is striking principally
at her own sex, Mrs. Roberta West
Nicholson of Indianapolis s
only woman legislator-yesterday
started a movement In the State
House of Representatives to ban suits
for alienation of affections, seduction,
breach Of promise to marry and the
naming of correspondents in divorce
and similar proceedings.
Mrs. Nicholson, daughter-in-law of
Meredith Nicholson, Hoosier author
and now United States Minister to
Paraguay, pointed out that men rarely
sue for breach of promise to marry
and said, IT am firmly convinced that
most of the actions for breach of
promise and seduction have extortion
as their chief motive"

"And I call for his reports with

The acceptance of the ladder as
evidence had been generally expected

time he was going to insist that Kelly

demonstrate to the jury.
AS soon as Kelly advanced to the
stand today, carrying his equipment
with him, Reilly picked up a sheet OF
yellow scratch paper, handled it gin
gerly with his fingertips and handed
it to the trooper.

said.

brushed powder over the paper. JUS

After Kelly had brushed powder
over half the paper Reilly asked if he
found any prints.
