Trial — Then Court Will‘ Address the Jury This Morning.

' l TUESDAY MORNING SESSION

At yesterday morning's session of the Supreme Court, the hearing of the Frank Weeks Larceny case be- fore Mr. Justice Haszard was con- tinued. .

E. Gaudct (recalled) stated to Mr. Saunders that the price oi a. separator was "one hundred dollars spot cash." He also stated it was hardly pmsible that the numbers could be covered by cream.

Cross examined by Mr. Bell, he said that while it would be possible to spill cream upon the numbers, he did not think they could be filled up and obscured in that way.

This closed the case for the Crown.

Mr. Mathieson then opened the case on behalf of the defence. He
