rally unable to be present in the , court room as required by law, Judse Maurice Bcrnon has not in-' dicated whether he will adjourn j court from day to day until she i?

recovered or whether some other action may be taken. "The situation will have to bo taken care of a It presents- iuelf." Judge Bernon said. Decision to have Mrs. Kaber's physical condition inquired into was made by Prosecutor Stanton after the court had advised him that he would not proceed with the trial until satisfied that Mrs. Kaber was conscious of things transpiring in the court room. By reason of the interruptionsonly one defense witness was examined Wednesday. He was Charlea Brickel, brother of Mrs. Kaber. Her fainting rpells came while he was being subjected to a gruelling cross examination by Ass't. County' Pres. James J. Caasldy. The tlrst fainting spell, which came noon after court convened In the morning, was accompanied by hysterical screaming which threw they women spectators almost into a state of panic. She was carried from the court room and was not revived for about half an hour. Judgo Bernon then ordered a recess until afternoon, when the other fainting attacks came. The third came when the had been only partially revived from the second. Court then was adjourned until today. The defence, it is understood, has only one more witness-, other than Mrw. Kaber and the- alienists. Th. witness is Gertrude Prosser. a religious practitioner, who, according to Mrs. Kaber' counsel, is expect-1 to testify that fhe treated the accused woman for melancholia and nervousness for three years. Pros. Stanton announced thi evening that he will have testimony to rebut that given by defense wltn esses that Mrs. Kaber after an automobile ride returned to th' home of her sister. Mrs. U. J. McGinnis at Cedar Point. C. about 9i30 on the evening Mr. aKbcr Wo stabbed. Mr. Stanton said he would be able to prove that Mrs. Kaber did no', return until 2 o'clock In the morn

ing. The- Mate has al u) qUtfl-j tioncd whether Mrs. Kaber was In Cedar Point on the night of thj j murder, as is claimed by her, or

whether she was actually near the scene of the crime. The round trip from Cedar Point to Cleveland, Mr. Stanton contend, can be made by automobile in less than four hour?.
