Mistrial; Orders Testimony Continued
In Powell Income Tax Evasion Case
Rules Governments Case Restricted
To Charges Made In Indictment

New York, Mar. 18.-Federal
Judge Frederick vanPelt Bryan
overruled yesterday a defense mo-
ton for a mistrial in the income
tax proceedings against Repre-

Governments case by barring any
testimony on alleged overstate-

Judge Bryan limited the Gov

indictment and to the original bill
of particulars and an amended bill
filed last December. He said that
to introduce testimony on alleged
illegal deductions in 1852, on which
the defense had not been fore
warned even in general terms,
would seriously handicap it.
