PROSECUTION TRIED
TO OFFSET DEFENSE
Witnesses Put on the Stanct'to
Tell of Rational Acts of
Defendant Following Al
leged Injuries
(By Associated Press).
Mineola, N. Y., Dec. 1. When "sura-
nmg up addresses Degan in supreme
vourt here today, it was believed cer-
ain the fate" of Mrs. Blanca De
Saulles, on trial for the murder of
er former husband, Jonn L. De
5aulles, would be in the hands of the
ury early, this evening. Justice Man-'
ling at noon indicated he would con-j
inue court until the issue was finally
mbmitted to the jury.
Both sides rested, at 11:36 o'clock.
Walter R. . Jones, the justice of
the peace who presided at
Mrs. De Saulles' preliminary
hearing, was the first witness
today. He declared his observation of
Mrs. De Saulles following the shoot
ing gave him the impression that she
was rational. Jones added that her
calm manner, despite the "unusual cir
cumstances" greatly surprised him.
George H. Hoffman, keeper of the
Mineola jail, supported Jones' opinion.
Mrs. Anna Mooney, the nurse whom
Tohn L. De Saulles, Jr., called "Boo
lie," told of Mrs. Dex Saulles' presen
ationi to King George and Queen Mary
luring a visit to England in 1914. An
lirplane flight which the defendant
ook while there, numerous shopping
excursions on which the witness said
ler mistress bought extravagantly and
ither details of the De Saulles' lux
lrioUs mode of life were related".
This evidence was evidently intend
ed by the prosecution to offset that
ijiven by other witnesses who said De
Saulles neglected his wife while they
were touring England.
Mrs. Mooney, according to witness
es for the defense, was the nurse re
gained by Dex Saulles, through whom
iie is alleged to have tried to alienate
his son's affections for his mother.
Regarding the automobile accident,
n which Mrs. De Saulles claims she
sustained severe injuries to her head,
Mrs. Mooney said a doctor "took three
3titches" in Mrs. De Saulles' chin fol
lowing -the accident and that her mis
press attended a concert the same
light the accident occurred.
The defense maintains Mrs. De
Saulles was confined to bed for sev
eral days following the mishap. Mrs.
Mooney said she had never seen Mrs
De Saulles cry "all the time -I was
with them."
She told of many teatre-and din
ner parties whiclT she said Mrs. De
Saulles attended escorted by her hus
band. The witness said Mrs. 'De
Saulles : never complained to h,er of
having severe headaches or periods of
nervous exhaustion.
Countess Otto H. Salm, a cousin of
John L. De Saulles, testified that whenj
she visited Mr3. vDe Saulles in jail
just affef the shooting, Mrs. De
Saulles cautioned her to be careful I
what she said

British Headquarters in France,
Dec. 1. In their operations in the
Cambrai - region yesterday the Qer
many began a turning movement, but
the British were able to pull back
most of their troops and guns at the
first attack and save them from being
caught. The British blew up a cer
tain number of guns. So far as could
be ascertained this morning, no Bri
ish guns were captured by the Ger
mans. .. The German casualties yesterday
were exceedingly large. The British
probably lost a considerable number
of men.-
. There is ho concealing the fact that
the enemy gave the British an nin
comiortable hour or two yesterday,
but the situation , this morning is not
one to cause particular uneasiness.
Some scattered British in the front
line may . have fallen into the hands
of the Germans' but most of the troops
are reported to have been withdrawn
safely. Some .ground- has been, lost

"?? "1 ' ,YWS- a; da
Washington, D. C, Dec. 1. James
Jfl - .iwin,wm retain nis position as
minority leader in the session of Con
gress which convenes next. week. Mr.
Mann was taken ill" about two months
before the close of the last session
and -after he left for .his home in.T'Ill-l
inois, and at different times dating
the. recess ofX Congress there 'has
been: speculation as to whether . ha
"would be able to resume his ardtrous5
cussion as ta nis probable successor
turned to Washington and put an -end.
The minority leader has now re
to all speculation, however, hy stating
that he will remain . here until the
House goes through all its preliminar
ies and gets down to business some
time, after the Christmas holidays, at
liasB -When ;nfe feelf. satisfied that I
everything is all right within the Re-1
publican organization of the House, he
will leave for his illinoJs farm and re
sume the -rest cure he adopted by a
vice of his physician last September
when he suffered a nervous bfeak-
ddVn.
Mr. Mann spent much of the time
since last September in mild outdoor
exercise, and seems much improved J
But upon . advice -of his physician he
will not attempt any hard work at this,
session or resame custon of being con
stantly in attendance and maintaining
a critical eye on every ward and act
of the House and Senate.
No candidate has appeared for Mr,,
Mann's place during his absence and!
had there been one he would most
likely have been promptly squelched
by the Republicans who recognize Mr.
Mann as a man exceptionally well fit
ted for "the place. There was con.sidr
erable "growling" against Mr. Mann
by men of his own party and the De
mocrats at ;the last session, hecaHse
of his extreme irritableness and ap
parent lack pf tolerance, but this hv
now beeli attributed to '.his nervous
condition and is no w ' forgotten.
The duties of Mr. Mahh were taken
up by Mr. Gillett, of Massachusetts
Madden, of Illinois; Moore, of Penn
sylvania, and "Uncle Joe" Cannon afc
ter he left for home, and between - th.f -
quartet the Republican members were
guided wisely and well.
It is the general opinion that legis-1
lation at this session will be chiefly
confinejd tonatters in connection with
the conduct of tne9wa-and that for
the most xart general legislation and
miscellaneous appropriation measures
will be sidetracked.
In Mr . Jinn'M absence matters jemH
cerninl aTPrdpTratrons 'Wilt "De -guiirea'
so far as the Republicans tre concern
ed by Congressman Gillett, of Massa
chusetts, ranking Republican on the
Appropiration committee, and appro
priations will likely take up the great
er part of the attention of this session.
Mr. Fordney, of Michigan, leading
Republican on the Ways and Mean&
Committee, and one of tlie very best
authorities on revenue in Congress,
will assume leadership m revenue
matters.
finneressman Butler, of Pennsyl-
vania, leading member on the Repub
lican side of the Naval Affairs Com
mittee will take charge of navy mat
ters, and Julius Kahn, ranking Repub
lican on Military Affairs, will be V
Republican guide for military matters.
It appears to be the opinion of Re
publican leaders that j the policy of
having the Republican party offer, mo
j-n npmocratic measures to
UytlUDiuuu .- - : - , i
induct, the war, and if need be to.
lead the way in preparing legislation
calculated to assist in bringing it to a
speedy , successful conclusion, will be
followed at the coming session. Care
will be taken by the Republicans,
however, to see that not a dollar of
appropriations is wasted or spent in
an unwise manner.
