OF ORPHET RESUMED

State Attempts to Break Down Testimony Concerning Scenes In Woods on Day ot Tragedy.

WAUKEGAN, 111., June 28.—Another section of the ordeal of cross examination was in store for Will H. Orpet, accused of murdering Marion Lambert, his. former sweetheart, when his trial was resumed today.

Orpet's cross examination may occupy not only today but a part of tomorrow. This was indicated when it was stated that David R| Joslyn, spe* cial prosecutor, will seek to develop the

state's

theory upon four points

by

the

on

of its belief that Orpet testi­

fied falsely, it was said will attempt to show that the bottle of molasses and water found in the woods was "plant­

ed"

that Orpet saw no white powder

the girl's face and hands that he witnessed no convulsions when she died and that his alleged "brainstorm" "never took place.

The state claims that the poison which caused Miss Lambert's death was in liquid form and that it was given her by Orpet The defense asserts the poison was in the form of powder and that the girl procured it from the garage on the estate where she lived and took it with suicidal intent.

A decision with reference to the cross examination of Orpet on the ^•subject of his relations with Miss Celestie Youker, which is expected to have an important bearing upon the *cfese, is to be handed down by Judge

Donnelly today. Mr. Joslyn told the court that the engagement of Orpet to Miss Youker, if proved, would furnish the motive for the slaying of Marion Lambert.

Attorney David R. Joslyn questioned the witness concerning a letter written to Marion while Orpet was attending the University of Wisconsin. "Did she return a letter to you unopened at about that time?" asked Mr. Joslyn. "Not then or at any other time," replied the witness.

The witness denied he had ever asked Charles Hassinger, a Madison drug clerk, for capsules. "And didn't you say to Hassinger that none of them was large enough?" pufsued Mr. Joslyn. "No."

new negotiations with house conferees. Another effort probably will be made to induce Rep. Hay and his colleagues in the house to eliminate all reference to relief, Including even the senate proposal to provide exemption from service for enlisted men with dependent families.

Action fn the house on the disagreement was deferred until tomorrow. Senator Chamberlain brought the subject up again on the floor of the senate and urged that the whole relief issue be stricken from the drafting resolution. "My impression is, after discussing this with the war department," he said, "that provisons of the house appropriation and senate amendment should be left out of this bill. It is the impression of army men that to adopt the houlse relief provision would lead to refusal of men to enlidt in the regular army. In view of that it seems to me we ought not to encumber this resolution with it."

Senator Reed, who led the fight for the relief provision, said he would be willing to leave the whole subject out of the resolution if given assurances that a relief bill would be pushed separately at this session. "I want to say, however," Senator Reed declared, "that I am growing a little weary of the officers of the United' States army dictating the policy of congress with reference to the volunteer soldiers of this country."
