Judge Pullman not desiring to pass absolute judgment on the demurrer at this time. as he corn sldered there were a number of well- taken points in it. The evidence was then asked for. There was a stir in the court room when Judge Light called Havens as the first witness. Witness ssId he is acquainted with Frank Lemongclli in response to Judge Light's question he said he was arrested for selling post cards on Sun. day following Christmas. Witness said on the Saturday alter his arrest hemhad a conversation with Lemon- o . "I had returned from Hartford that Saturday on a late train and came to Norwalk. i had boon up to Mr. Big- bert's with the intention of returning money i had in my possession and which belonged to the Ministers' As sociatlon. and which Mr. Egbert had given me. i came from there down to unlongeill's and asked him if he had time to havo a talk with me. I call- ed Lemongclll out and told him i had things in the way of evidence against him and had been working in town as on Investigator for the state police, and i told him I would put him wise to certain things. “We held a conversation than in the hallway of the front entrance of the hotel and he asked me at the end of the conversation if i would call around the next day. I had a room at l5 flinbeth street. 1 went to my room that night and after getting up Sunday morning i came up to Mr. hero I ongelll' I place. Mr. lemongelli and myself went to an upper room to talk "Mr Lemongelli said if those things are true I want you to tell the minis- ters that i don't keep any place against the law or have any disreputable peo ple about. He showed me through dif- fcrllnl. rooms in the hotel. He showed mo one room he said was used as a club and did not know what was done tht-rc. He wanted me to go Into a plan wilh him, offering me two if the plan was carried "out and l sllccmrrlcd. The plan wssihis: To get Mr. Carpenter. Mr. Egbert and Mr. Mscfnrlsnd to take a trip through his hotel. examine all of his rooms and show them there was nothing done contrary to law; also for 0 tell that” didn't think there was a yrhing done there contrary to law. 1 agreed to the plan and in part- lng company with him that day Mr. Lemongelll gave me a two and one-half dollar gold piece. saying this Is to show that. i mean business and this Is not talk. Leaving Mr. lycmongelli's place i went up to the lunch wagon near the railroad station and l was arrested. charged with selling obscene postal cards. l was held for a hearing. On the Monday morning succeeding Mr. Lemongelli—(obiectlon by Judge Downes). “Mr. lemongelli said he had heard of my arrest and he said he had decid- ad that he could help me and I could help him in the case. Mr. Lemongclll said Sunday afternoon that he would help me out of my trouble because of me telling him about the state police and warning him in time. At that time I spoke to him about a bond and he said he could not furnish it, because It would look as though he was a friend of mine and he did not want it known. "Mr. Lemongelli on Monday after he came to see me told me that his offer would still hold good if I got on the stand and testified to his place being conducted within the law. Mr. Lemon- gelli said he thought he could let me a lawyer, hilt he did not. know. After- ward Mr. Walsh came to see me." Mr. Light—Did you engage Mr. Walsh to appear for you? Havens—No, sir. 'Did you pay him anything?" "No sir. ” . "Did he appear for you?" “Yes, sir." "Did you pmmlse to pay him any. thing?" "No. sir." "Did you send for him?" “No. sir." Counsel argued on l'lavens' testify- ing as to his notebooks. which the prosecution desired to show that Mr. Walsh had repieviued in the Interests of lamongelli. Havens was finally allowed to state that he kept a, note book and that he had been gathering evidence against Lomongclli's place. among others. After more argument. Havens' was permitted to state that Mr. Walsh asked him if there were any notes in the book referring to Lomongelii's place. Havens also said that after he got out on bond. lmongclli spoke about a barber named Rohdc. in part of his place. Lemongclll.
