Non-Union Waterbury Melons-n Tos-
tlilu In Vandemark Trial.

WATERBURY. March 10.-~The
cross-examination ofIOeol-ge Morriuet-
to. the non-union motorman who was
assaultedln .Watervtile during‘ the
strike of trolley men a year ago, was
continued by the defense today in the
trial of Willis Vandemark. who is
charged with perjury in connection
with his trial and that of other strik-
ers last June for the assault. Morris-
sette was again taken over the whole
ground of his story III relation to the
assault. and was closely questioned as
to the strength of his identification of
Vandewark as one of the party which
attacked the car. Few new points
were brought out.

The testimony was frequently inter.

and the trial proceeded slowly. The dc.
tense secured one point
which it has sentenced when Judge
Ralph Wheeler announced that he had
decided to have the state pay the cost
of summoning witnesses for the de-
tense.

After a consumltlon at the opening
of the session between the attorneys
It was agreed
that the trial shall proceed tomorrow
and Monday in order to expedite It as
much as possible.

The second witness of the morning
was Frederick Pretut, who testicd that
stones were put on the track ill front
of the cars. This evidence was object-
ed to by the defense on the ground
that the blocking of the track did not
constitute a part of the alleged assault.
but was admitted nMr arguments dur-
ing which the jury retired from the
courtroom.
